Dragons. We love them. My kids love them, especially after this Halloween, where our streets were filled with inflatable version of them.

But that's not really why I did this mockup...

A couple of weeks back, I started a new piece and was attempting to merge VSL instances into a new template, only to lose my current template entirely. So I was more or less forced to rebuild my template again.

But what track to use as a reference this time?

I consider the scores from the #howtotrainyourdragon movies some of the finest in the genre, and the work of ‪@johnpowellmusic‬ his very best. But beyond that, the overall mix of the score is so crystal clear that I wanted to really knuckle down and try and emulate that instrumental clarity this time. No pile of plugins; no brick wall limiter on the master bus for loudness. Just proper bloody balance.

I love this track. I get get goosebumps from it every time in the final phrase. And I am very happy with this mix. I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed recreating it.

As always, full credit to the original composer,, ‪@johnpowellmusic‬, whose music is beyond beautifully complicated. Your are a master builder, sir.

Made in ‪@Cubase‬ and ‪@ViennaSymphonicLibrary‬ with ‪@NativeInstruments‬ Kontakt and sample libraries from ‪@spitfireaudiollp‬, ‪@cinesamples.official‬ and more.
