I remember feeling invigorated by the release of [[album:anthology-i|Anthology I]] and I had a fresh demo for this song the evening after it came out. I’ve had concepts for this song sitting around since around 2021 and it was exciting to finally get a chance to execute it. I knew even back then that I wanted to combine elements of EDM and Rock/Metal but I didn’t really know how to pull it off. It was only after I started listening to Nine Inch Nails in 2023 that I found myself able to complete the song. The song leans in heavily on that distinct Reznor brand of industrial Rock while combing aspects of VGM and EDM. It might not be entirely evident, but the song was influenced by Toby Fox’s approach to [[track:vriskas-theme|“Vriska’s Theme.”]] In his commentary for Alterniabound, he talked about how he wrote that song to depict Vriska’s depression and angst. Layssah, much like Vriska, experiences a lot of self-loathing and I wanted to convey that in Redeye. To do that, I decided to do something I’ve never done before: putting vocals in a track. I am by no means a lyricist, but I figured it would help convey my intentions for the song as well as give me a reason to bust out SynthV. It’s not the best tuning or vSynth programing in the world but I think it does an okay enough job. It’s the best produced song I’ve ever made, I’ll give it that. +--- +Track: Unforgettable Face +Duration: 3:05 +Cover Artists: +- Limeade Arcade +Artists: +- Levc +Art Tags: +- Pollyon (Desynced) +Referenced Tracks: +- track:pokerface-desynced +- An Unforgettable Line +- track:daughter-desynced +- Void of the Moon +URLs: +- https://desynced.bandcamp.com/track/unforgettable-face +--- +Track: Little Shop Of Horrors +Additional Names: +- Little Shop of Horrors ([YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qS2T5DO8Dhk)) +Duration: 3:29 +Artists: +- Rainy +Cover Artists: +- artist:dizzims +Art Tags: +- Romelia (Desynced) +URLs: +- https://desynced.bandcamp.com/track/little-shop-of-horrors +- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qS2T5DO8Dhk +Commentary: |- + <i>Rainy:</i> ([YouTube description](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qS2T5DO8Dhk), excerpt) + + Now going from the newest song on the album to one of the oldest. I did a decent amount of composition for this track in 2020/2021 iirc. Unlike [[track:redeye-nibiru|Redeye]], LSoH was a fully formed piano draft that was left to sit for 3ish years. I knew when Niberu was coming together that I’d finally get my chance to finish the song. Compositionally, the song is pretty much identical to the original draft I wrote in 2020/2021. Production-wise however, it’s an entirely new song. Romelia’s kinda spooky and I wanted her song to ooze “B-Horror Movie” energy. I took a lot of influence from the expected Halloween esque songs but also took cues from Hip Hip and Glitch pop production. [“Pac-Man”](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G-7U-FDql1A&pp=ygUQcGFjLW1hbiBnb3JpbGxheg%3D%3D) by Gorillaz and [“After Third Heaven”](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eqJfkS3LFXA&pp=ygUSYWZ0ZXIgdGhpcmQgaGVhdmVu) by Death’s dynamic Shroud were major influences.

[[artist:dizzims|Dizzims]] asked for two versions of Niberu’s main theme to bookend the album and given that I was already doing [[track:nibiru|the opener]], I decided to do the closer as well. The process from there saw the song evolve in ways that I didn't expect. I managed to get a decent melody that I wound up using for the opener and an ostinato figure, but I couldn’t figure out how to put them together into a full song. Given that [[artist:levc|Levc]] wrote the main theme of Desynced, I decided to reach out for his help on this track. Much like our other collabs we tossed a project file back and forth adding and tweaking stuff until we got a finished product. I think the big difference from those other times we’ve worked together is how much better we play off against each other here. This track is the [[track:flying-witch|second]] collab between me and Levc ([[track:strobelite-striker|third]] if you count VE) and it shows. The track’s a sprawling epic, spanning multiple phases over its 4-minute run time. The song was influenced by [[track:another-medium|“Another Medium”]] by Toby Fox but I think it goes above and beyond that initial influence imo. The track has 2 recurring melodic motifs meant to represent the opposing forces that make up Niberu: mechanism and naturalism. The idea came from [[album:undertale-soundtrack|Undertale]] and how that game’s main theme has the “hopes” and “dreams” motifs I really like the way we managed to arrange the two melodies in such a way as to embody the meaning of those themes. The ostinato figure unifies it all together in a way that is so satisfying. It’s probably the most ambitious song either of us have done for Desynced. There’s [[track:noiz-rainy|a familiar motif]] at the end but that’s a story for another day. +--- +Section: Bonus tracks +--- +Track: Until My Blood Runs Dry +Additional Names: +- Name: >- + [BONUS] ~ Until My Blood Runs Dry + Annotation: >- + [Bandcamp](https://desynced.bandcamp.com/track/bonus-until-my-blood-runs-dry) +Duration: 3:44 +Artists: +- Witch's Cadence +Cover Artists: +- Limeade Arcade +Art Tags: +- Kate (Desynced) +- Pollyon (Desynced) +- Dusken (Desynced) +- Derse +- Fosvas (Desynced) +- Derse +Referenced Tracks: +- track:daughter-desynced +- Desynced Anthem +- track:escapade-desynced +URLs: +- https://desynced.bandcamp.com/track/bonus-until-my-blood-runs-dry +Lyrics: |- + (You ever dance with the devil in the pale moonlight) +--- +Track: Megalovania +Directory: megalovania-nibiru +Always Reference By Directory: true +Additional Names: +- Name: >- + [BONUS] ~ Megalovania + Annotation: >- + [Bandcamp](https://desynced.bandcamp.com/track/bonus-megalovania) +Duration: 3:34 +Artists: +- Witch's Cadence +Cover Artists: +- artist:dizzims +Art Tags: +- Layssah (Desynced) +Referenced Tracks: +- track:surrural-anthology-i +- track:MeGaLoVania +- MEGALOMANIA +- track:redeye-nibiru +URLs: +- https://desynced.bandcamp.com/track/bonus-megalovania +Commentary: |- + <i>Witch's Cadence:</i> ([YouTube description](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NTSG4lglGR4), excerpt) + + This was the first ever song I made for desynced lol.<br> + You have no idea how many revisions this went through.<br> + Took forever to get someone to play guitar for it, but sometimes you just gotta learn to do things yourself :3 |
