The brilliant minds behind Two Steps From Hell have defined the meaning of epic music. There is just no going back, and although it may not initially suit the taste of some listeners, There is some amazing music that is better than some film music. Their vast catalog of compositions has so much uniqueness. First you find a rough, loud piece that has some rock components, but another is light, orchestral, and beautiful.
Love & Loss is one that I will be focusing on. It is composed by none other than Thomas Bergersen. Being the end of the work week, this will wrap things up perfectly. Its victorious tune gives us the feeling of accomplishment, the climax is over and the resolving sequence has arrived. A modern sound is derived from the synth which produces some interesting sounds. Still, the strings are the center focus on this, giving the brass the role of quiet introduction and blending throughout. A choir comes in about halfway when the buildup begins.
Every time I hear this I keep thinking of how perfectly this would end a film with a modern take on storytelling. The victory and resolve is clear and precise, and so is the joy from the end of the tiresome adventure. It also leaves us with one small bit that something isn't over. There is something else wrong that is soon to come up. A perfect place to leave off where a sequel would pick up.
