"Just finished another classical electronica piece this time its "In the hall of the mountain king" by Greig but this time I edited clips from Beowulf (the CGI film) to the music.

Boosted my range of soft synths with CS-80V, Juptier 8V and Virtual String Machine all of which were used along with Omnisphere, a big favourite of mine and of course cubase 4.

Took about 2 weeks of evening and weekend work to do the arrangement and 2 hours to slot the video arround it, best seen in HD for Angelina Jolie alone Wink let alone the better quality audio.

Hope you enjoy

YouTube video description:
"Beowulf set to "In the hall of the mountain king" by Edvard Grieg electronically recreated in an Isao Tomita style.

The music was created first then the clips of Beowulf were edited around the music, this I think works well because of the superb look and animation in the film together with the theme of the composition and sounds used.

Robert Zemeckis 2007 Beowulf is completely computer generated using the voices and the looks of the real actors including Ray Winstone, Angelina Jolie and Anthony Hopkins which quite suites the music I recreated, synthesised sounds for synthespians.

Music created using Jupiter 8V, CS-80V, Omnisphere, Virtual String Machine soft synths and arranged and mixed in Cubase 4."
Some Angelina Jolie for you...
