"Island Theme" from The Shore on Windows & HTC Vive (2021)
Composer: Thanos Zampoukas
Album: The Shore Soundtrack
Label: Self Released
Publisher: Ares Dragonis
Developer: Ares Dragonis
What I like about this theme is there is a mixed feeling of mystery, wonder, and optimism, which is what you want at the beginning of The Shore when things seem slightly out of place but at least still somewhat normal. Well, more normal anyway than before things start getting really weird depending on how much you end up exploring. It's just a nice unobtrusive theme to have in the background, and occasionally comes to the front with an emotional crescendo, all accompanied by the haunting vocals of Andriana Kalochristianaki.
Another reason why I feel like I was drawn to this theme was that the first half really reminded me of the piece "Credit Where Credit Is Due" from the first season of LOST, which has that same sense of mystery and wonder.
