It's not quite 2019 yet in my timezone so the joke still holds

New WIP:
"So They Say..." 3:03 [SKETCH 02b] (2018-11-28)

Again, a little more experimentation with using odd-time signatures, but keeping things to a slightly less insane 5/4.. and even then I'm drifting into good-ol' fashioned 4/4 here and there, with a dash of 15/8 to spice things up; It's just how I've planned on writing the album.

New WIP:

The Willing Duke I: Mine By Right 4:36 [SKETCH 01] (2018-11-12)
This one was actually one of the first songs I began writing for the album, and even though it's still not finished, I feel the structure is pretty much nailed down.

Updated WIPs:

Cold Sweat 2:30 [SKETCH 01c] (2018-11-04)
Not much changes to report, other than a change in tempo. Oh and also it's all been written, even though this is stil a preview version of the Sketch. As is Innocence (which has since been renamed to The Innocent Lies), but again, only the preview version of the Sketch is listenable.

New WIP:

Cold Sweat 2:24 [SKETCH 01a] (2018-10-11)
Considering how SKETCH 01 is already 2:24 long (and is projected to be around the 6:30 mark), I'm honestly concerned that I might be writing too much, as I'm aiming to keep Album 3 one disc (so, 79 minutes total); however from what I've planned, it already seems to be creeping dangerously close to that number, and I don't want to split it across two discs (partially because there's no good place to put a break, and also I don't want to *remove* content because it would take away important story elements).

Still, I've only began building 6 out of the projected 15 tracks so far (two of which haven't been posted here, as they're not quite ready yet), so maybe - hopefully - the issue will fix itself before it even arises.

Rock cover to "September" by Earth, Wind & Fire.
Uploaded on the 21st night of September because that is literally the only reason I did this.

• Listen/Go ~Play Along Mode~ 2:19
• Listen/Go ~Challenge Mode~ 3:33
A short rock instrumental, inspired by rhythm game music (in particular, "Two-Torial" from Sound Voltex, which I would link if YouTube BBCode tags would behave on my end).
As the tracklist above implies, there are two separate versions to the song: ~Play Along Mode~, a simple playthrough of the song; and ~Challenge Mode~, which.. well, if you have some drums on hand, you might want to sit at.

Also, similar to 3-Sphere, this is not likely to go on The Messenger Trilogy, part I, but it was still a blast to put together.

Almost forgot to post this here...

Orchestral remix to Soulless 4, originally composed by ExileLord.

* Soulless 4 (Orchestral Remix) 12:21
At over 12 minutes in length, this is officially the longest song I have ever produced, beating my old track Phoenix which, at 11:43, had held onto that title since 2009.

Should I ever remix/cover Soulless 5, it won't be for a long time, since a) I have other covers in the pipeline I want doing, and b) it's 17 minutes long. This remix alone took me two and a half months to put together.So with all that said, enjoy. Or endure, whichever applies.

Title says it all, really: Orchestral Remix to "The Muffin Song" from asdfmovie7.

I refuse to believe this actually came out this year; it sounds like something straight out of the 80's.

Also Coheed and Cambria's new single making me hyped for the new album:

• 3-sphere 1:15

SKETCH 01 to 3-sphere.

Probably not going to actually do anything more with this, since it doesn't fit in with what I have planned for The Messenger Trilogy, part I at the moment – I could keep it until Album 4 if I don't use it there, but that's many years down the line from now.

Either way, this is just an idea that I wanted out of my system. Got a little inspired from Hack Music Theory's video on TesseracT (who's video in turn was inspired from TesseracT's "Luminary") and, to music-theory-geek-out for a moment, wanted to write a song in a similar style that also didn't put emphasis on the "1" beat, as well as faff around with some polyrhythms (the middle section in particular having an instrument in 15/8 over the song's 12/8).

Maybe I'll do something with this in the future, maybe it'll get worked into The Messenger Trilogy, part I somehow, who knows.

New WIP:

Upon a Furrowed Brow 6:53 [SKETCH 01] (2018-05-10)
I wouldn't exactly call this a "multipart" song (cf., Fermi Paradox I-V) despite having definite "sections", but as far as what I have planned with the album, this song is definitely more story-heavy compared to the ideas I have for some of the other tracks; hence why you're getting the full 6:53 rather than a verse and chorus.

...and boy, it shows.

New WIP:

The Resistance 0:57 [SKETCH 01] (2018-03-29)
Experimenting with odd-time signatures (keeping it a steady 13/8 for now).
