Comentario del artista:
Eston Schweickart:
Nucleose and I are good pals, so we collaborated on this piece. We decided to compose a theme for first encountering a denizen (but not fighting it!). We agreed that it should be cinematic and ominous, and perhaps switch moods throughout, to accompany a theoretical cutscene featuring a dialogue between the player and the denizen. Within a day, Nucleose had hammered out the main theme on piano, which I then set about to arrange for full orchestra and electronics. I emerged nearly 6 months later, scarred from many bloody battles with the demons of procrastination, with a song called Waking the Beast (a title that I settled on months before Eidolon Orpheus' Bargaining with the Beast was released). Though Nucleose would claim that he had almost no hand in the finished product, I incorporated (read: stole) many elements that are common in his music: uncommon meter, Phrygian mode, numerous gradual tempo changes, etc. SO THERE, YAN.

[It begs the question...
How zen is a denizen
when it's in a den?]
