The orginal tune was composed on the line of the Indiana Jones main theme… and so i try to give it the same Indiana Jones feeling.
Very poor attempt, i know 😉

I'm not a fan of Midi-Instruments, especially when they sound tinny. It's a 1:1 cover, very little own inspiration - I guess due the choice of instruments, it shall link to Indiana Jones - but it's far away from John Williams and the London Symphony Orchestra. And again: MP3-tags are intend to fill with useful information and not to left blank.

As being a musician in a symphonic wind orchestra, I can relate to this arrangement. The sounds may be a little generic, but otherwise I find it promising and could be improved on/extended and used with a real band - maybe a typical marching US high school band who play anything they can get notes for (trust me, I've heard Rimsky-Korsakov's Scheherazade played by marching band).
