Very pretty. The title fits it very well, as it sounds like the owner of voice to the song was shipwrecked, and it sounds like it's calling for help. Lamenting for past mistakes, remembering everyone and everything they love.
My only problem is that I feel as if the song takes a little too long to build up to the really emotional stuff. But that really could just be my ADD talking, so take it with a very small grain of salt.
mmmm... your criticism is intriguing... i'm not going to lie, i really enjoy the songs that slowly build to some sort of awesomeness, so i don't think i'm going to abandon that. ;-) but maybe what i can try to do is make the build itself more interesting, so the core of the song isnt the only cool part. i admit i kinda rushed the big build on this one... so maybe that's what your problem is.
The intro was definitely impressive, as was the rest of the track. The only issue with the orchestral intro was that a few of the chord progressions seemed to change a tad to fast. I dug the ending synth though, holy crap a blast from the past. Reminded both of us of the old Starcraft OST. Ah, good times.
What did you use for the piano? VST or soundfont?
Hah. You say the intro was too short, the last guy said it was too long. Maybe you're right and I should have slowed the chord prog down... I did kinda get that impression. Thanks for the review.
Piano: Um, I think it was from the big NG collection of orchestral soundfonts (along with the strings). Thanks for the review.
