Another track from Angels & Demons. 
Experimenting with accents and even a short breakdown.

Angels & Demons

Darkened Skies

This EP contains material from "Angels & Demons" that did not make the cut. 
But are still worth sharing.

Mystic Knight (EP)

Hopeless Dreams

Dio's "Holy Diver", album from 1983, turns 40 years this year. 
This album one of my favourite albums of all time. It is timeless and every song is a banger. 
I really wanted to capture the spirit of the original cover and add my own touch to it. Realising that Dio does influence me a lot in my writing. 
This is the instrumental demo, and I am planning to add vocals. 

R.I.P. Ronnie James Dio. 

Track written by Ronnie James Dio. 
Arrangement by Ruben Lodewijk

Holy Diver - Instrumental (Dio Cover)

Year Zero is a very nice song by the band Ghost from their 2013 album Infestissumam. 
I really wanted to cover this track. 
Turns out I am not a singer (big shock, I know). So the choir parts are midi and the lead vocals are missing. 
I hope to record that some day too.

Year Zero

Year Zero - Instrumental (Ghost Cover)

I arranged this track to fit the Angels & Demons concept album.

God of Thunder (Symphonic Version)

A track inspired by 80 heavy metal (think of Judas Priest and Dio).
This time with symphonic instrumentation added to the track to fit the style of Mystic Knight. 
Chant for the Devil is supposed to become a sing along song like Judas Priest's "You've got another thing Coming" and Warlock's "All We Are". For now, it is just the instrumental demo.

This track had been released in the past without the symphonic elements. But I wanted this to happen for a while now.

Bannerlord (EP)

Bannerlord

In a more dark and twisted version of Alice in Wonderland, I'd like to write music where Alice faces the many dangers of Wonderland. 
This is the intro and titled track of the album, with a lot more to come.

Alice in Wonderland

The second track for my Alice in Wonderland themed album.

The Looking Glass

Mystic Knight is a project name that fits the subject and style of my music. 
This page is my portfolio of instrumental work I've written for this project.
These are demo's and my plan is to release them with vocals in the future.

My music is based on fantasy and implements genres from symphonic metal to powermetal. 
My big inspirations are the world of Tolkien and music by Ronnie James Dio.

You can find more of my music at my personal page.
