An epic cinematic orchestral cover of My Mother Told Me! The song that won my small community poll! :3 Wrote this in my spare time in between studying!
Total work time: about 25 hours and 14 minutes spread over 2 months...
Soon I'll hopefully be done with school and can then write even more music for you! (provided that I actually can earn money from this O.o) Should I start a patreon? :3

A bunch of words:
I'd like to thank Midusias and Peppsen for their input on the mix! I'd also like to thank Emil for drawing the awesome art! This marks the first time my covers has had truly unique art made for it! I always feel that the music gains something when somebody draws specifically for it :)
Btw, I figured out a way to optimise CPU usage in FL so my large projects no longer break my computer! :D Why would they hide multi-threading so deep in the plugin wrapper? It's easy enough to find and enable for channel effects and stuff? Oh well - it's fixed now and I'm happy!
Wanted to also say that this cover went a totally different direction than I had intended... Had planned a more "proper classical orchestration" but couldn't make it work the way I wanted so I ended up with something a bit more trailer-ish? Or maybe a bit more vikings feel idk... I hope nobody minds the extra epicness :3 (even tho it's just mostly drones and the chord pretty much never changes until the end lmao - we'll see if I bother releasing an instrumental version of this). There have been some orchestral versions of this song (from which I took some notes) but none of them quite did it for me. They weren't bad - just not what I was looking for. The only reason I make music nowadays is to scratch that itch when the music you want to hear doesn't yet exist! I encourage everyone to explore their tastes and cook up new music from your heart that scratches any itch you might have :3 Who knows - people might even wanna taste your cooking - they might even like it!!! Especially if you give it away for free on youtube xD
