Topic: Afghanistan Deployment"

Hi Arkady;

Ive just listened to this new piece from you.  Its awesome Sir.  Conjurs up all kind of images. Well done.  Im Looking forward to hearing the next  section to this piece.


"Afghanistan Deployment" is the first part of a larger piece of music that will be added in the future. In this part I have tried to convey the alien landscape of the desert on the deployment of the troops.... I have the greatest repect for all the troops fighting and dying there.

Chordians can listen here at Arks link.

Re: Afghanistan Deployment"

Ark another wonderful effort from the "master of mood" the music conjures up barren images of drifting sand and military vechiles silhouetted before a full moon in the evening sky with sounds of the distant thunder of artillery shells annihilating a favorite osama downtown McDonald's smile

Re: Afghanistan Deployment"

Brilliant piece of music a seriously mood setting, stirring tune. You didn't happen to write the music for the film Assault on Precint 13 did you - the original not the remake. Congrats - you hit the nail squarely on the head.
