if your not going to make something new..... then why not just paste the actual recordings?

If you do not see the difference between the actual recording and all variations I have done so far...what can I do ?

by something new I mean : my personnal style, new original theme etc

well thats what people want, for example with Star Trek the motion picture, there had already been a main theme set, however Jerry Goldsmith opted to write a new theme, I think a new theme would be better than a theme steal, its rather lazy writing.

and I liked your variations so far because...well... they are varitations of themes already in STAR WARS (Vader's theme, Luke and Leia, Leia's theme, and the Imperial Motif), this is a variation of a theme that is not in star wars, so it does not mesh well.

BTW I do not think you should be so dead set on using certain ideas and not taking the criticism and working more on them more, remember Binary Sunset had to be re-written because it did not fit the scene, if Williams had objected to rewriting it, well, we might not have the music for the funeral pyre in JEDI.

And have you given thought to how your new pieces might effect the musical narrative? just curious.
