Witch's Cadence: (booklet commentary)

After I made “For the Greater Good” I realized that I still wanted to do a Zachery Lumen song for the album, so I decided to buckle down and make this. When I started it, I added the very menacing strings at the beginning because I wanted to show how he really gives off that scary doctor vibe, but then it goes right into groove town with the first actual section, because uh, he does seem like a kind of freaky badass, I think.

I really don’t know why I chose a genesis soundfont for the drums, but I did. Also, they have a lot of triplets if I remember correctly, so they are kind of weird just in general. The chord progression is also kind of weird. Honestly the whole thing is just weird. Kind of like Zachery. I think my favorite part is 1:08, where the piano really feels like a part in a Danganronpa song. I don’t know, Danganronpa just has really good music. Also, this is one of the songs I actually put the “For the Greater Good” motif in, so, there’s that.
