With all the threats of war, gassing people and extermination like bombing of women and children it's a wonder the end times are not already here. This piece hopefully gives a sense of what and end times senario might be like. It is epic in its creation and I hope you feel this piece for the torment which mankind is able to bring on its self. In the end though, all of His wrath will be far more greater than I can create in a musical piece.

Hi John, it does sound apocalyptic in a Hollywood kind of way. I'm not sure what to make of the sequence after 2:44,  sounds a bit out of place, imho.

A lot going on here... Interesting arrangement of sounds... To me, the (dance) music seems out of place near the end...  interesting...

 This music conveys a sense of tension combined with calculated power undertones. I like the way you combined these elements.

Rik, Thanks for listening and for your comments, they are always appreciated. After 2:44, the music changes because, now, the joy that comes after the Apocalyptic event is over can begin. There is no more war, death and destruction is over, and the joy of normalcy can begin anew. Hope that helps answer your thoughts as to why the change of the music.
 
Peace and Blessings, John

Frank, Thanks for listening and for your comments, they are much appreciated. Read what I answered to Rik and you will get it. I guess I should have explained the piece better when I first posted it. Oh well!!

Interesting and creative idea for a song John.  I like what you did with it, although I think there could be a bit more "boom" to the apocalyptic parts.  Those thunderous drums aren't very impactful.  The ending is very cool, although it still sounds a bit "dark", and could maybe use a bit of sparkle and more major chords.

Epic my friend and I dig the techno feel at the end!

Walt, Thanks for listening and for your comments, they are much appreciated as always. Please remember that I do these for video and that I try to leave room for additional editing if a video ever come up for me. I can always put all the impact I want in these pieces and set sparklers on fire. With a video, I will know when and where to place those, but to date I have no video for this as of yet. But, thank you for your ideas. Glad you enjoyed the piece.
