<Original THIS 1.0 Description>

DragonFyre was another composer working on the score for the legendary TGP/TLA endeavour.  His music had a crazy ambient feel to it - something foreign to my traditional line of composition - so I wanted to take one of his songs and rework it in classic Helland style.  ”White Knights” seemed the best choice as it was one of his more thematic songs.

I retained the drums from the original mix but almost everything else has been modified (and the only reason I kept the drums is because I didn’t have the software to imitate that kind of velocity shift).  I really enjoy the new countermelodies in the final bars of the song.

This piece still has a strange feel to it - eerie but powerful, distant but immediate.  I enjoy DragonFyre’s work and it was a treat to work with one of his songs.
