BARLOW'S OBSERVATIONS - (by Michael Hennig)  Year: 2010
Michael Hennig (SEPTEMBER 2018)
Our Editor's Choice Award for September 2018 could go to none other than this magical and captivating Neo-Classical epic by Michael Hennig. Alternating between the most rapturous intertwining concert ensemble passages and full-blown orchestral escalations, Michael has masterfully captured a rare combination of classical Hollywood Action, Film Noir, and Disneyesque shades in this stunning work.   An orchestral track with "film noir" in mind. Think of private detectives and mysterious ladies, but also of danger, horror and crime. From calm but tragic themes to eerie string glissando, brass and woodwind stabs, funeral organ and full orchestra stabs, this track has it all. Suspense assured. Instrumental, Dangerous, Edgy Music
