The final boss casts his ultimate spell...
At first, I lived in the dark
No soul and no heart
But then came the spark
That opened my eyes
Like a moth to the flame
I’m drawn to your side
Will I be burned by you who shines so bright?
Please hold me close and don’t let me go tonight
Cuz i can’t go back not anymore
In the chamber, you can already see some of the special gasses clouding your sight. They are odorless, and they fill your lungs easily. You feel very sleepy, and you feel at ease. "See you in a hundred years", the voice says.
Sparkly Dust!
I could have gone any direction, but i felt like doing something different, but yet still TVG style. It's another mostly one chord tracks, that involves stuff being woven in and out, dynamic shifts in the form of light and shade parts, and a lead synth melody that makes the whole track more melodic, even within the realms of one chord. The breakbeat is fed through a gross beat for a bit of a stutter effect, which is then doubled with another break on top EQ'd. Overall the arrangement is simple, we just dart between various synths, whilst the neverending arp and bass power through, which makes for a sort of trance inducing listen. Is it the most complex? Of course not, you're going to be listening to the same thing over and over, but the key component is the interest gathered through various random sounds that are manipulated. All in all, i hope you enjoy!
