Three windows were open….
One for composing,one for mixing and one for writing but all
of them were empty and it seemed like I had nothing to fill in that void or so
it seemed at that point. But at that point who was to know that what awaited ??
Random riffs were being generated along with ill noises
which could literally damage the ear but then it seemed that the same ‘ill’
noise if played at a lower tempo such that it doesn’t dominate the music but
sounds like a small element with respect to the
context of the entire track, wouldn’t sound unappealing but instead
would add a bit of a flavour. So it began with the track building initially
from rough riffs to a more clean rigid riff section with a layer of the same
odd noise but this time tuned to sound like music and then the drum parts came
in along with the remaining guitar stuff.
Now tracks were there but they all needed to sound like they
are generated from the single thread and so now the composing part began with
the first window getting occupied with
each sound being complied with the next one such that all of them sounded like
they are cousins.
Following this began the mixing section where each sound was
levelled up or levelled down so that the music would be pleasant rather than
NOISE and that was tedious but was achieved.
Finally came the writing part as in writing lyrics and that
was the part which would define that the melody composed is a good melody or a
good song and so now began the part where the listening was done repeatedly to
the composed music to catch the vibe, energy and the theme of it so that appropriate words
would come out and it was at that time that the frustration started growing and
the feeling dominated of something good being KILLED IN DARKNESS or simply
being ditched in a wrong way with respect to the music made because of not
being able to find the right words to fit into that music and thus came the
name “ECLIPTIC CRUCIATE”.
Eventually the lyrics was done but that’s a whole new story
but to give a hint, two lines of the lyrics are given below which may give a brief idea of what started cooking…
“A thousand curses is
not worth to die,
When a heart is all
that beats to live”
More awaits…
Till then..
Ciao….
