30MC: Weighty Confrontation
Finally, a music challenge that actually felt like a challenge. It's more about me working a little outside my comfort zone of slow-moving tonal harmonies and focusing more on rhythmic interest.
Music entirely made with nothing but percussion, specifically, a bass drum, some trash drums, takio drums, sticks, triangle, and the "boomer" FX. Because of the use of so many massive drum sounds, that's how it got the name.
Because really, it could represent anything... Stuck in the temple at the wrong time, witnessing a an army with elephants armed with machine guns moving through the jungle, a fighting match full of slow but powerful blows... The only thing I don't think it really fits though is the whole "drums of war" thing, only because the triangle chimes in with a shimmer that while what you are hearing is powerful, it's not just dumb brutes banging on big drums.

Funny but the very 1st thing that came to mind was the old Viking long boats and how they had a drum to help keep rowing rhythm. I could easily see this being used for that.
