Let me tell you a little about the creative process for this one.
This track took me to another planet. It made my heart race so much that I genuinely couldn’t write it without my top off.
I felt like I was under someone else’s control, guided by energy, not from this planet.
Did I just consume a large number of drugs before making it? Yes
But did they have anything to do with what I was feeling in the creative process? Probably.
Anyways, the reason I’m talking about the process is that for this track the narrative wrote itself. What I found, was this track is about power and control.
Whilst we all have “free will”, at the end of the day we are all going to die and be nothing. We don’t have any control over anything in the universe. We have no power, the universe is power.
To highlight this power, I used menacing synths and a hard as F*** drum beat.
What transcends the track into something otherworldly are the vocals. My girlfriend's vocals almost sound Arabic, helping the track grow and breathe into something greater.
The peak of the track is this chaotic wall of sounds that all mesh together into something I think sounds quite powerful.
