Artist commentary:

Dylan S.:

The mind player’s land seems like a huge pain in the ass to exist in. Gravity is always changing, shapes are always changing, nothing makes sense, nothing’s constant. The first iteration of this one had more energetic strife vibes and weird, all over the place time signatures, and just did not sound very good no matter how much I wanted it to, and after learning there weren’t even any enemies I knew I needed to take a different direction. This version ditches that stuff, but I like to think I kept it disorienting in less in-your-face ways. That bass/kick rhythm never changes throughout the entire song (though It does alternate three different drumsets), and the kick doesn’t land on the first beat, so the one part of the track that stays the same the whole way through is the part that ensures that you’re never really able to find solid footing, like the whole thing is built on an wobbly foundation. I thought that was neat.
