Leaving it All Behind
4:36

by Arcturus

I've been home from Argentina for four months now, and this is the first
song that I've released.  Since I'm not a very well known trakcer in the
scene, few people know that I was gone.  Well, I was a missionary in
Argentina for two years.  I must say that the song turned out quite
nicely. It gets a little crowded at times, but I'm too lazy to take care
of it :)

I apologize for the file size, for a mod, this is pretty big, but the
sound quality more than makes up for it.  For me, it sounds really bad in
Impulse Tracker, but it sounds great in WinAmp.  Modplug does a good job
of playing it as well, not quite as good as WinAmp, but very close.

People who have heard this have commented that it sounds a lot like the
opening theme of The Legend of Zelda:  Ocarina of Time.  After comparing the
two, I noticed that there are quite a few similarities, however, when I wrote
this, I hadn't played that game in about three years.  Maybe I was subconsciousl
influenced by the music, but I think the parts that sound similar to that aren't
the best moments in this tune.

So, what's the significance of the title?  Not much, really.  When I
listened to it, it just reminded me of someone being on a bus, or train,
or plane, leaving some place behind them, never to return.  Perhaps I
unconsciously wrote a song about my departure from Argentina, although I
may return there some day.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy this.  Here's my contact information.
