A denouement piece - very reflective and somber.

Samples are segments from speeches delivered by JFK and police sirens both taken from freesoundproject.

Though I’m blind
Though I’ve died
I will rise
Through my soul
Through my mind
I will rise
Through my heart
Through my eyes
I will rise
Through my pain
Through my fear
I will rise

It sounds nice. Until your vocals came in it could definitely have passed for something Dylan wrote.

But I question your use of the word "denouement."

Stupid eurotrash words. Anyways, I compose most of my pieces much like a film or novel, and on my storyboard of concepts this piece fills the cathartic and "reflective" post-climax role of the denouement.

oooo. reminded me of something out of the matrix. i think the scene where morpheous is walking neo through the crowded city simulation. Sounds really good. i liked how the vocals came at the very end.

You did a good job with it overall. I really like how the synth parts kind of float in and out throughout. Builds very nicely, then you got that very sexy transition at 140ish. I like the very simple synth part that comes in. I just dont like the song that much really. Compared to your other stuff especially. Probably because it just sorta dies out after that. Doesn't hold my interest until the end. Just not my thing.
My oppinion on this type of song is pretty much worthless though.
