Raptor Call of the Shadows Orchestral Remix

This is a piece based off of a tune from an old video game I used to play titled "Raptor: Call of the Shadows". The original version was more upbeat- featuring a steady rock beat and guitar, but was as equally somber-sounding as the version I've created. This tune being the one that was played when you died in the game, I wanted to create something a tad more emotional and expressive. This is what I came up with. I hope you enjoy it. Please feel welcome to leave any questions, comments, or critiques you may have.

Is it me or you remastered the game over song?? When we are shot downed and we saw a flic of our craft being crashed? Is that the song

@CloudDideletVII Yes sir, this is my own orchestral reinvisioning of the death theme from Raptor. :)

This mix is awesome! Submit it to OCRemix! They don't have many Raptor remixes and this song needs a matching title. "Lament" sounds like it should be in there!

[moondoggy385]

@muddbabesari That's a great idea! :D I think I will. Man, I've not been to OCRemix in years, but I've got all kinds of fantastic works from there. :)

Amazing version.Do you have the sheet for the paino part?

[moondoggy385]

@swellframe Currently, I do not. But making sheet music from the piano part would certainly be easy enough. Understand, though, it's not exactly an elaborate part. It's not as if any sheet music I give you composed of only that part would be much of song as much as it would be just a small piece. At some point, if time allows, and if you wish, I could try and put together a piano arrangement of this and send you that music as well. But I can promise you it wouldn't be anytime soon.

The bass should last longer I think. It cuts off too quickly.
