ACT 1

This song, while the first on the album, was not actually the first song I made. It was created to function like how Stormspirit does in Tensei’s homestuck solo album, Strife. A quiet, dark track with a bit of build up before leading into the first major track of the album. Oh, and of course it starts with wind sfx. The little bits of clicking sound design were inspired by the sounds that play in Metroid 2 and it’s official 3ds remake. I really like how spooky they are in those games. Of course the main melody here is “Ballad of Jack Noir” (A personal favorite of mine) as setup for where this album is to go (Foreshadowing is a literary device-). The synths are based off of one of the tracks that didn’t make the album, (“Witch Plays Bass” in the soundtest folder). Very happy with the mysterious vibe in this track, and of course it transitions to the next track with the midnight crew sample and a rising reversed cymbal crash.
