I love the piano piece, really a driving factor in this song. The guitar, which takes over as the song progresses, does a great job of keeping the mood. (Which is pretty dark in my opinion).
The progression in the chorus reminds me a bit of John Murphy's compositions. Which is a great thing.
The percussion is very well written. Often basic is the best way to go and it doesn't, at any stage, take over the song.
The lead guitar is beautiful!
As mentioned in one of the previous reviews, I think you could have added more "power" to the vocals at a later stage. (But you already know this). Just to make it more "epic".
Overall, great song and good luck for the competition!

Thanks for the review Titan!
Yes, the mood is quite dark, im happy i was able to give that feeling :)
John Murphy, i didnt knew his name but i certainly know his work...28 days later has amazing music and i also discover im like him "He is a self-taught multi-instrumental musician" minus the talent xD
I will definitely look into how to make my vocals have more presence and sound more powerful from here on!

Nearly cried. This might be because I am incredibly hungover or because the song is just that good.
Can't really find fault in this. Truly a beautiful and evocative piece, from the first crescendo to the last.
Good luck

Absolutely love the piano piece.
It's very emotional and creates a gloomy atmosphere which makes me imagine an old man standing by the waves, reminiscing over the past. ( He is incredibly tanned for some unknown reason).
The high and low notes struck a "note" with me and work in harmony perfectly :D
5/5

The second part of the song is pretty good. Reminds me of some folkish/viking metal songs and, while I do agree with ForgottenDawn on the some aspects of his criticism, I still think it sounds great. Regarding the flow of the song. It's pretty obvious that the two pieces aren't meant to be looked at as one continues piece, climaxing in the gloom and doom rock piece. Rather, for me anyway, it is the way the story would progress. (Probably the game or whatever). For that reason I think it works fairly well.
Good luck!

SourJovis responds:

Thank you. That's exactly how I felt about the song myself. I'm glad someone else does too.

Very happy listening indeed.
I really like the flute(Or whatever it is) and the melody. So calm and soothing!
I get a very relaxed island feel from this.
Keep it up!

This is bad ass. Those solo's are pretty intimidating :D

This is awesome!
Good luck for the competition. I would feel pretty comfortable with this submission.

InYourDreams responds:

Hey thnx!! That's really nice to read :D... thank you man! I feel actually quite good. I hope RealFaction brings his A-game to this battle :)

This is really quite lovely.
It put me in such a relaxed mood, thanks :D

The change at 01:01 is fantastic!
I thought it was going to go into some weird Eastern melody for a moment (Before remembering the theme) but you really did a great job. For some reason it reminds me (In places) of the Sherlock theme but then it reverts back to the happy folk melody.
Quite an uplifting piece!

Step responds:

Woo, glad you enjoyed it! A friend of mine also told me it sounds like the Sherlock theme (but the Hans Zimmer one, which is what you're referring to I'm assuming). Might be that harpsichord.

Thanks for leaving some feedback.
