8dio Stand Out Contest Submission: "The Jungle" by Juriy Nikitin

This was composed as part of a selection of tracks to accompany the signing of the register at my daughter's wedding.

8Dio Adagietto string chords were improvised and then layered to give space then I improvised the Virharmonic Bohemian Violin over the top for the melody.

This is a track I themed in The Shannara Chronicles, really great music in that series, definitely has influenced some of my recent writing style, so has the show dark matter, great show as well.

8dio Stand Out Contest Submission 2016 LAND OF 8000 SOULS BY ROB DIGGY

This one I've worked on for a while. I wanted to capture that feeling of warm content at the beginning and then introduce a really powerful drive for the rest of the piece. Blending electronics with the orchestra really is awesome.
