Liner Notes

the opposite of trance music

written in around 5 hours for fawm 2026. this song, and all of the others in this series, will likely get edited and re-uploaded as i come back and work on them. if you like the current version, download it, because it's probably going to get worked on and replaced. i might host a version history eventually. add that to the list of things that would make soundcloud a way sicker platform.

if you'd like to participate, even informally, hit me up :)

composition references for this are a general collage of sounds off of the silent hill 2 OST. particularly:

hello, i'm a MASSIVE fan of akira yamaoka, so it's great to find someone else who loves his music. especially liked the pinging swirls around 1m30s onwards. good one!!

I dunno about "the opposite of trance music," I think this put me into some sort of trance alright - perhaps a trance imposed by some sort of evil wizard, but a trance nonetheless 😄 Seriously though this is super cool! Very eerie, keeps you on your toes.
