I working on the sound track for a new short film...
Below is several variations of the same sequence.
The Scene is melancholy and inspiring:

Or.. If you don't like any of them...
Make a suggestion on how I should arrange the piece..

I'd have to go with #3, but I'm a sucker for piano music.

What's up with so many flash media players intentionally dampening the volume? I mean, my PC already has volume control that I've set up myself. If it's too loud, I prefer to use that. Internal flash volume bars that are always at some weird 85% or something is just odd to me. I don't see the point, especially on my laptop where I need all the volume I can push just to make these tinny speakers sing.

As for what song... Hmm... Given the mood you say you're going for, I just can't picture the steel drums working at all, unless it's a somber and uplifting scene during an island luau. The mamba might work if it's Donkey Kong Country but in space... They're nice renditions, but those two just have a more comedic or lighthearted feel to me. I'm going to agree with GR tentatively, in that without knowing exactly what scene it's in, I don't have much to offer. Just knowing the mood, 2 and 4 don't really seem to work. The flute music reminds of Picard playing a flute first in his dream and then in real life, but it also reminds me of graduation day, so I gotta go with GR. Just for the mood, the piano one sounds best to me.

Since the Piano seems to be the running favorite I made a special version with a little cello in the mix.

Admins can change there vote if this is better..

Nice. Yeah the cello really fleshes it out. That's the best rendition of the theme from Dallas you've done yet!

1 >> 5 > 3 > 4 >> 2

2 is the weakest (and doesn't sound very sad). The other four are close, but I like the first one the best, and yeah, 5 is a little better than 3.
