Default Work in progress, but stuck, looking for ideas

Hi all

This is something I put together during an evening of idea flowing, but I'm stuck now. Any ideas, feedback, thoughts, ... on how to get on with this would be greatly appreciated! For some weird reason I can't get on with it ... but then again, my brain is pretty weird haha

Anyways, any and all ideas very much welcomed! Thx for your time.

Great sound. Sounds pre-chase scene / pre-battle up to 1:09 at which point I could see a drumset and bass adding drive. Dum da-da dum da-da dum at a horse gallop pace. Then some guitar lead on top. Would fit fine for a car chase too. Then chill down to the after 1:10 part.

Thank you! Guitar, actually, honestly, never used guitar in my little twinkly compositions, might give that a shot, broaden the horizon!

The key-change 2/3's in was very tasty...

What if after where you stopped, you cut way back in a new section to something sparse, perhaps also quite rhythmically different, for a time. Maybe permuting some of the already-presented motives.

Then transition back to your 'A' section, either at original key or something slightly different.

My $0.03

So cool man! Maybe after the key change you could go back to the main theme in the new key with some massive horns and some war drums for some final epicness!
