The dark mood I entered into in the latter half of 2016 has proved productive. This is the second track drawing on that energy, there a couple more in the pipeline.
 
The siege of Aleppo was horrific by any standards. I have some fond memories of the time I was in Syria and its devastating to see what has happened there.

wow - this is epic. The mix between traditional instruments/sounds and synth are really cool - love the big percussive sounds

Wow!!!!  This is not the kind of music that I am drawn to but I must admit that this one sucked me right in.  It has a wonderful big-sky, cinematic sound to it.  It doesn't have lyrics to it but it certainly creates a mood.  Well done --- very creative.

Thanks the for kind words. I hope to load a third track for this 2016 "negative energy" inspired music this weekend.  

That's cool stuff Glyn, very powerful. Really like that Storm Drum and the Emerson-like organ.

I am hearing Fripp, Bruford, Emerson which is all good in my book.

Cool stuff Glyn  

That's very creative. I can hear the boots marching. Any altiverb going on? That overdriven organ is pretty tasty.
 
Mix wise, I think the higher end could shine a little more, eq-wise. Just a little, maybe bring the snare up a little louder?

Man, this is really cool, Glyn!  love it!

This is one of the best things I've heard in a while.  It's haunting and thought provoking and gives one a sense of impending doom.  This should be used in a documentary and given an Oscar!

I've not been checking out the songs forum as much lately and I "stumbled" across this while listening to Wookiee's new tune.
 
You certainly have a knack capturing some of that old prog vibe.
 
cheers
