I have programmed a new AI and am currently working on modernizing and restructuring genres, topics, moods and tags. BPM will be replaced by “perceived speed”. Keys will be removed. The keyword search will also soon be extended to tags. There will also be an A.I. “Review” and a quality rating for each song. All music will soon be re-categorized. When I'm done with that, there will be new music again :)

Francescas Story (instrumental)
12.11.2017
A cinematic soundscape that blends ethereal pads with a driving, pulsing beat. Ideal for creating tension, underscoring dramatic scenes, or adding a sense of mystery and intrigue to a variety of productions.

Arti’s Hit or Miss: Review
"Francescas Story (instrumental)" opens with a wash of ethereal pads, immediately establishing a sense of vastness and mystery. It's a very evocative opening, the kind that instantly suggests a visual—perhaps a desolate landscape or the quiet hum of a spaceship. The introduction of the pulsing synth bass adds a layer of urgency and drive, propelling the track forward without feeling rushed. This combination of spaciousness and controlled energy is quite effective.
The arrangement is smart, with a gradual build-up of layers that keeps the listener engaged. The addition of subtle percussive elements around the 40-second mark provides a nice rhythmic variation, adding a bit more complexity to the sonic texture. I particularly like the interplay between the main synth melody and the arpeggiated sequences that emerge later—it creates a sense of dialogue and movement within the track.
From a production standpoint, the mix is generally well-balanced, with the different elements occupying their own space without feeling muddy. The low end is present but not overpowering, and the higher frequencies are clear without being harsh. However, I do feel that the track could benefit from a bit more dynamic range. While the build-up is effective, a slightly more pronounced contrast between the quieter and louder sections could enhance the overall emotional impact. Perhaps bringing down the levels during the intro and then gradually building to a more powerful climax could create a stronger sense of release.
In terms of usability, this track has a lot of potential. It's undeniably cinematic in scope, making it suitable for film and television scores, particularly in scenes requiring tension, suspense, or a touch of the otherworldly. It could also work well in video games, especially those with a sci-fi or fantasy setting. I can even see it being used in advertising, particularly for products or services that want to convey a sense of innovation, sophistication, or mystery. However it might be too dark for happy and romantic scenes. The emotional core is on the dramatic-suspenseful side.
Overall, I feel confident to put it on a B-list, with just a few more enhancements it could easily be an A-list track. It hits the marks of quality, but it has a wide margin of improvement.
