The Force Awakens Kylo Ren's Theme - Concert Suite

[finalscore 10]

This is my first attempt at creating a "concert suite" of "Kylo Ren's Theme" which I pieced together from moments in the score. More work will need to be done, but here is is for now.31Kylo Ren's Theme.mp3

Nice job.  I thought this was the First Order theme though.  We first hear it on the ships of the First Order after the opening credit long before Kylo Ren is introduced.

My second attempt at a concert suite of the theme. I used more of the End Titles medley to give it more thematic feel.

A couple of things. The repeated bars in your new version don't work. Also try experimenting with 'cross fades' so you don't get sudden sharp sounds switching from one section to the next (and reduces the 'clipped' noise). The order is a bit messy as is, it sounds like you just placed bits together randomly (some sounds like random underscore), which is inevitable to some degree, but could be minimised by maybe transposing or changing tempos of some sections. Also are you missing a few moments of both themes (Kylo Ren theme and tragic/First Order motif)?

Criticism well taken. So in the spirit of competition and open mindedness, let's see what you can come up with using your own analysis as a guide.

I'd love to, but I don't have access to a computer these days

 

Yours is fine though, especially as a quick reference of the themes' variations.
