Woah, this is ominous. I especially liked 3:06 - felt like the discovery of an underwater palace! The intro sections helped to set the stage. Good work.

Description
A Very unique approach to what you'd probably expect... Also, more info can be found on the Soundtrack's page.

BTW, that Plug-In that makes it sound so interesting at around 3:04 is the Aquae Organ Kontakt Library, IIRC.
I can see why people don't really see how they can connect this song to a beach-like vibe. Most people seem to think of a nice, happy beat filled with Ocean Sounds, Steel Drums, & Whatnot (Or At Least That's What I Expect People To Think From What I've Heard), but I mostly thought about Scuba Diving a few miles off the shore... That's the thought that I had when trying to brainstorm ideas. Now, there's this Soundtrack that came out of that idea; Beyond The Beach.
Well, I can tell you that the Textures are from Omnisphere, & the Drum Loops beginning around 2:36 are Drum Sample Loops. I think that they are from a Wonky Loop Collection of sorts, if I remember correctly. I then added a lot of reverb too. I was going for a kind of a mixture of feelings, like Ominous, Strange, Mysterious, yet still Grand & Beautiful all at the same time. Glad to see that it seems like you enjoyed it!

Thanks for the compliment! I was going for a VERY unique vibe to what you'd expect... I'm actually scoring some parts of a movie for a friend, but it's nothing too exciting. I think I get a lot of people saying that my music sounds a lot like Silent Hill, Annihilation, or some other horror-themed game. I do like making horror/deathdream soundscapes for games!
