Evening Star - Halo

[@MarcusWarnerMusic]

Quick update: I've just discovered Angel Eye headlights are called Halos in America - that was completely incidental. You learn something new every day!

[@SpyrotheDragon97]

You just too pro man.

[@adrienbrody6683]

this means you got groove; you've always just got everything spot on. I love you, man. pls never die.

[@SilentlyFalling]

Need moar brony music!! D:

[@MarcusWarnerMusic]

It is :)

[@ixz807]

Evening Star i could use a nice rainbow dash OR fluttershy remix for my channel intro....... help me out please???

[@Skaitania]

Simply wonderful. Thanks.

[@JWmusiccollection]

Reminds me of music for a racing video game in a good way. It's light and fast paced, the kind you want to drive to.

[@Pyr0ken1s1s]

Here's to another great year of new music, even though I'm late by almost 2 months.

[@TheCrazySlow]

I'm so happy to see you're still here ! Great job ^^

[@iliketrains0pwned]

The intro reminds me of the Cat disk from Minecraft

[@mojothemagickcrafter7635]

I like this track. It's peaceful and energetic at the same time.

[@Pyrobug0]

Beautiful work. I've heard so much of your orchestral music lately that I'd forgotten how good your electronic stuff is.

[@Impleione]

Isn't that the vocals from "forward thinking"? I just recently bought liberation and grand flying machines, now you release this song - I'm listening to a lot of good music to start off 2015 ^^ Also, good luck with university this year - I doubt you'll need it ;)

[@Zarlekchannel]

I like your orchestral music and especially ur DnB. Keep up the excellent work!

[@VinylSnapz]

I loved the melody and the drums we're amazing, great track. :)

[@123fakestreettt]

Everyday scroll through my subscriptions and always check this channel only to be saddened that nothing new comes up fearing that this channel is gone. But not today! Awesome song and I don't normally like vocals in DnB songs but I loved it in this one. Anyway keep up the great work. I cannot wait to see what you come up with next.

[@MANNY100123]

HAPPY 2K15! This was great!

[@Goofybespitenothavinganyfish]

Just amazingly amazing

[@EnemyAC130Aboveu]

I simply love this track, it makes me feel so alive!! If I had one bit to suggest you improve it would just be the chorus. The singing is a bit repetitive but the mood is still there. I love this song though and these are just my thoughts. Do what ever you want with them. Good work as always, I always enjoy seeing a new song from you in my inbox :)

[@TheMoritzProductions]

I enjoy all your music man! This one was especially awesome and it reached my heart "beat" vibe.

[@cfields320]

Today's music sucks ass... this is good shit

[@robpo4]

great work love it

[@unknownwanabe3437]

[I am sure I´ve seen that profile with a more extended view] I know It´s you, Kaka Carrot Cake!!: You am no real super sand! xD

[@DoxxMusic]

You're musical skill is intensely high man

[@MarcusWarnerMusic]

Thanks dude!! Now when are we going to see some great new stuff from you? :D

[@SoundForMachines]

thanks for this new song!

[@Bootmeal]

Every time you release a new track, I find myself in awe while listening to it. Your work is, quite literally, awesome. I can think of no better word for it, but 'amazing' and 'incredible' come to mind, as well. You truly have a talent for composition. Both your orchestral and electronic music blow me away. I have near-zero doubt that you will go places, man. I hope to see your name on movie soundtracks in the future.

[@guidinglight9119]

So glad to see new things from you! It is very repetitive, but repetition just makes sense to me; that's just one of those odd things about my mind.

[@Jakthemoron]

Always at your best I see, great music

[@BoatsandButterflies]

Hey, this kind of sounds like a remix of "Forward Thinking" . Its sooo Cool!!!

[@Kinan.Eldari]

Put a smile on my face, Marcus. Good job : ) Happy new year to you too.

[@gregmooney94]

Heh - I think I hear samples of "Forward Thinking" from Liberation. Great song, great album. It's good to see another song from you, Marcus!

[@JayceFolf]

Awesome track! (I'm so glad I found you! I love your Drum & Bass & Orchestral music. :D)

[@Issacc20]

Worth listening to this track :3

[@FritzyBeat]

[@TrebleSketch]

Ohhh! Evening Star always make amazing songs :D

[@FritzyBeat]

Treble Sketch He does indeed~ Whether it's Orchestral or Electronic, they always capture my imagination X3

[@unknowng4835]

Hi :3

[@TGSGrass]

Good shit, Marcus, keep it up.

[@241wright]

Just went to your site, and now I know your younger than I am. Keep with it.

[@InfiniteCorps]

I love this

[@Gangelya]

This is amazing! love your music :)

[@pan_golin]

Okay I'm going to try to explain why I hate and why I love this tracks ... First, let me say that I truly love DnB, and you're for me one of the greatest artists the brony fandom made me find. I guess that in this track, you tried to make something a bit different than the usual type of DnB you make (like Destinations). A more sustained track with more effects I think. The intro (0:00 to 0:20) is merry, sounds a bit like your Hearth's Warming Eve track, the bell bassline make a sweet melody, and the light drumline matchs pretty well with it. Then goes that weird pitched sampled voice that we are going to hear along the track D:. I don't wand to sound rude, it's just not my taste at all. I love voices and repeated samples in DnB tracks, but when it's over-edited and we don't even get what is said because reverb blurs everything, my tooth grind. After 0:22, the bassline starts to grow in power, that's cool, it takes the listener with it, deeper in the melody ... BUT ! (start clearly hearing it near 0:37) that noise going higher and higher-pitched till the drop make an horrible effect. It would work with a more heavy DnB style, or some Neurofunk, but not with a merry melody like there is here. After there is some deep bass, floating, following very well the previous drop. If the voice over it wasn't edited like that, the ensemble would sounds pretty well. With that part, we went from a merry music to a fantasist one. That's an interesting transition though I'm not a huge fan. After the second drop (1:28), we enter in my favorite part of the track. Good drumline, not to speed, not to slow, a bit classic but well .... it's drum'n'bass (wat'cha gunna do ?) so it's perfect. The bassline, still deep bass and a punchy melody, matches well the track. The other background effects give more matter to the melody, it's great. This part just give me the wish to run and jump everywhere, in a bright city at night. It keeps getting better and better till the song ends (except for this annoying voice D:). The last part (4:23 till end) chills out the listener, it's relaxing, that usually what I like to hear at the end of a DnB track. Well, you have my point of view, I don't know if it will help you or anything, but I'm glad to have shared it with you.

[@pan_golin]

Well I dunno why I've been flagged as spam. Nevermind, I just hope that Marcus has read it, because he was seeking for some constructive criticism and that's what I tried to make.

[@marshmallowmountains4636]

Peshmelba Maybe they were jealous of your detailed analysis?

[@unknownwanabe3437]

Wow... I really liked the song, but now that I am watching your comment... I don´t know If I am dealing with people with very high standars related to this kinds of music. Well, It was a pretty descent critic Indeed. Maybe some people are (no offense) very stupid for "Not" understanding the meaning of critism. [Don´t expect everything to be a good answer]

[@callmerandomgurl1414]

Merry Late Christmas! ~2016 xD

[@uhmhazymusic]

Damn, Halo fits this song perfectly

[@TheSellrinos]

I like this one !

[@CurlyHairedRogue]

I know it's just a background track, but I must know what she's singing! The words please. I love to sing along with my favorite tracks and this is no exception.

[@MarcusWarnerMusic]

Hope is round the corner, holding hands and we're stronger, look into my eyes and tell me why, truth is in all lies --- 'Forward Thinking' samples :)

[@CurlyHairedRogue]

Evening Star thank you sir! I've always loved lyrics to sing to. Heck, I've tried to put lyrics to some of your songs that don't have them. It takes a while though, and inspiration comes and goes. But, all the same, keep up the amazing work Mr. Warner. You do such amazing work. ^_^

[@LeonexusRandom]

Blaine Winans What songs have you put lyrics to? I'm the same and love to sing along (even though my singing is terrible.)

[@CurlyHairedRogue]

Leonexus Random well, like I said, inspiration is a tricky thing, but I suppose the closest I've got is Hearth's Warming Eve. On this day, chilled hearts melt away, Although we, snow and ice receive. Raise voice and rejoice this holiday, On this grand Hearth's Warming Eve! Gusting by, the air is alive, With songs of the peace achieved. From which our happiness derives. On this grand Hearth's Warming Eve! (2x) Ooohhh! The fire glows! Its warmth grows! And thus, we forget our woes. The people of, The Earth and Sky, And mountains high, Join as one, and our spirits rise! *chorus of oohs and aahs, until the bridge closes* Brave the cold! Come all, young and old! As far as our voices reach! Join the feast at least! There be no toll! On this grand Hearth's Warming Eve! Gather 'round and drink in the sound, Hearty laughs! Ye be not deceived! Not a care or an agony be found, On this grand Hearth's Warming Eve! (2x) That's all I have for it, although I'd like to think I did well.

[@LeonexusRandom]

Blaine Winans I just listened to the song with your lyrics, and I agree it sounds good. I don't know how good your singing is, but if you can make a video with these lyrics (and Evening Star's permission) I think it would be awesome. Keep working on it.

[@Nanidash]

You baaaaack!!! I knew it!!!

[@stormflyerdt01]

U know what, I don't like any of your songs, I love all your songs. U deserve so much more credit than u get.

[@Alkumist]

O.O dat bass is making mah head vibrate!

[@Makenshi179]

Awesome track! :D

[@gentlejello]

Wow your music is so freaking beautiful! Why is it that I've never heard any of it on SuicideSheep or something? ;;

[@Maxxarcade]

This gives me fond memories of your earlier work. It's energetic, yet chill, if that makes sense :-) Always looking forward to hearing more from you, both MLP influenced and whatever else you come up with. Do you have any future album plans since you finished Liberation?

[@mirracle39]

Very Like IT !

[@RazorToothMusic]

great dnb track bro :D

[@onehighwolfy]

Well my good sir, I have just found you yesterday and I am quite in love with your music, now to see you at Everfree Northwest? Lol that would be cool.

[@MarcusWarnerMusic]

I am glad you like it! But no unfortunately, I am in the UK.

[@bastje]

I recognise the voice and lyrics from the song Marcus Warner - Forward Thinking. It sounds refreshing somehow but I don't like it. Got to be honest right? But I am a big fan of your album Liberation! Also bought it on itunes on release.

[@0Templegoddess]

Really nice ;D

[@l.jturner6617]

Me Gusta.

[@mossbird8816]

Aren't the vocals from Forward Thinking?

[@starflowersea6031]

+Callia Baker Yep!

[@TorridPrime217]

Love this track, but I just have to ask; any ideas for future pony music? I understand the whole thing about expanding one's horizons, but your orchestral pony music surpasses almost everyone's

[@alpang6161]

Disregard what BOB THE BOB as I feel like he understands how to put out what he said properly and in a better mannered way. What he calls repetition, I call your distinct style and I thoroughly enjoy your style. What he may be getting at is that its always good now and then to experiment with new styles, maybe go outside your comfort zone and try something new. Now I'm not speaking for him but this is what I got from him. As for the song directly, I love it to be frank. I love whatever this genre of music is because its both active and soothing, if not, a tad over with the bass. I love your songs but here's is what I have to say about it. At around 2:09 to around 4:28, that background of what I can't tell what it is (possibly marimbas?) but its a cycle of arpeggios or a specific rhythm that is repeated to almost all the way to the end. I feel like that could use some change up as it feels a little repetitive but even then, the song itself changes around it nicely around 3:20 but starting around the 3:56 point, it just sounds outplace. I feel like its off time with the song itself but it also doesn't. Regardless, love the song and keep the the good work. I look forward to your next song.

[@ProjectBlue94]

Hey man, just found your channel/music, really enjoying it so far but I have a slight suggestion: Increase your dynamic range a little further if possible, even if it means your songs aren't as loud. It improves the listening experience by so much. Here's a link to what I mean: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loudness_war

[@Luna-Starfrost]

Can i get the lyrics? Ahaha :D Men, I love your music :'3

[@NerfMaster000]

Sounds like the type of music you'll hear on a TF2/CSGO Surf map walkthrough video. (Or is that a surfthrough?)

[@APegLegPirate]

Yeah lol, you would hear something like this.

[@paradox3712]

Absolutely love this song, though one thing is bugging me: Can anyone tell me the lyrics? I love singing along to it but I can only make out about half of the words.

[@starflowersea6031]

+Stephen Stranex They're from the song "Forward Thinking" from the album Liberation. "Hope is around the corner Holding hands, now we're stronger Look into my eyes, and tell me why Truth is there, no lies"

[@HangOnThereSlick]

How long did it take you to be able to make masterpieces like this one? Because I've been making music (or at least attempting to) on Fl Studio for almost 2 years now , on and off, and I can't seem to get any better ;~; I'm so jelly right now it's not even funny

[@praetorianonyt]

What is the voice saying in the song?

[@johnmarkowski969]

What is up with that light

[@RoschuhLP]

so... i think, that is the end now...

[@Liteheuz]

really nice song, but to me it's kind of missing something that helps tie everything together. It may be partially to me not being used to hearing DnB but all-in-all though, it's still very well done.

[@LastShadowWolf]

What program(s) do you use to write/edit your music?

[@thefancyhyena1816]

Is this inspired by the halo games by any chance?

[@brightsidenight]

A. Ma. Zing

[@ixz807]

My headphones won't work anymore...... DX Why........?

[@MarcusWarnerMusic]

Emile-A239 Emile I expect they're Beats

[@ixz807]

Evening Star they are not..... btw, can you get on hangouts about my request...?

[@_sarcasticat_2126]

Evening Star Beats - Overengineered as Tiger tanks.

[@ixz807]

Kitteh McKitteh​ true

[@_sarcasticat_2126]

Alphonse Elric It has a bunch of stuff it does not need. They might have had best intentions - But it never worked out. Way too pricey.

[@SpyrotheDragon97]

So I'm has nothing has nothing to do with the video game franchise Halo? Dang. Still good music though. Maybe more?

[@TAVIII]

I thought you dropped this channel unless it was pony?

[@MarcusWarnerMusic]

Not the case - have a listen to (or read the description of) my 'Important Message' video for clarification.

[@TAVIII]

Evening Star Probs just forgot, I did watch that but it was nearly a year ago

[@TAVIII]

Evening Star ah just watched it again that makes sense

[@MarcusWarnerMusic]

No worries!

[@cookiejarvis3856]

But... thats a BMW! i hope you dont own one because then youll start to be called a snob because you own a BMW

[@MarcusWarnerMusic]

No and no

[@X_URBRS]

Evening Star those lights used to be yellow

[@MarcusWarnerMusic]

They did!

[@davidvinson8992]

Nothings wrong with owning a bmw?

[@cookiejarvis3856]

David Vinson All people who drive them think they own the road. Allmost killed my dad once when he was on a motorbike

[@whoawhoa4062]

look. i love your work but this song/track/music piece is really annoying, its the same sound repeated over and over and over and its an annoying sound as well. i expect more or at least better from you. i am not gonna sit here and say where is the orchestral music cause the type of music you make is your own choice but this is sssssooooooooooooo bad its painful, i am disappointed.

[@MarcusWarnerMusic]

If you don't like drum and bass then don't listen to a drum and bass track. You should look at my first ever youtube video on here, it's not orchestral...

[@Athanei]

Evening Star Just remember that for every negative voice you hear, there's probably a good thousand or so people that have heard it and loved it. Keep up the excellent work!

[@SrFoxley]

Evening Star Agreed! This is an excellent D&B track, eh!

[@MarcusWarnerMusic]

Very kind of you guys but I do like criticism - just the helpful kind of criticism. If I simply received compliments my ego would grow, but my skill would not; I appreciate feedback but just not people being rude because it is a genre they do not like. Thank you.

[@DragonaxFilms]

BOB THE BOB I see your point, there are some parts where it seems to go on a bit too long without a change of sound. That being said, I still like the song. Not a favorite, but still good :D
