'Realms' is one of the first tracks we envisioned would be on an album by the same name back when we started composition of the track in 2015. In 2022 Masha mixed and mastered the instrumental version.

In 2024 we released "Realm I [Instrumental Prologue]" where you can find the instrumental version. https://soundcloud.com/archmageband/realms-instrumental

This song will be on our upcoming album "Realm I" (when all the songs have vocals).

Lyrics:

(Hey)

All of these realms 
That we haven't yet seen for ourselves
They could be somewhere right next to me, 
I can tell

And my smallest decisions
Could mean quite a lot, possibly
There could be 
Countless versions of me

Hey! Don't stand in your own way,
Of achieving greatness and success
If it's from dreams that
Make your heart soar so high

There is always something more,
About this very moment,
In your present time
In your future,
You will look back upon these
As the best times

And my smallest decisions
Could mean quite a lot, possibly
There could be
Countless versions of you and me

I feel grateful that we're in the same place
Of all the chances that it wasn't the case
We're together in this realm,
We're together in this realm,

All of these realms 
That we haven't yet seen for ourselves
They could be somewhere right next to me, 
I can tell

And my smallest decisions
Could mean quite a lot, possibly
There could be
Countless versions of me

Hey! Don't stand in your own way,
Of achieving greatness and success
If it's from dreams that make your heart soar so high

There is always something more,
About this very moment,
In your present time
In your future,
You will look back upon these
As the best times

Thank you all for listening to our music, we hope that you have a great day.

Olivier Noël, aka "n o x V Λ n d e r s", is a Franco-Cameroonian DJ and producer who has explored various musical genres since the 90s. He took his first steps in Switzerland, in Basel, under the name "Blackangel", where he made crowds vibrate during wild raves, particularly in abandoned factories of the Swiss food company "Le Bell."

In the 2000s, he moved towards more accessible sounds, exploring electro house under the alias "DJ Coolfun", not hesitating to flirt with what he himself calls "commercial soup." Three of his sets from that time can still be heard on SoundCloud (@dj-coolfun) and on edeejay.com (www.edeejay.com/profile-125718/video/).

But it was in 2012 that he fully immersed himself in the depths of progressive trance, refining his approach to mesmerizing sounds.

In 2015, Olivier made a radical shift towards drumstep under the alias "Skyloox" and dubstep by changing his alias to "OnBass 1978", mastering powerful drops and shattering rhythms. During this period, he left an indelible mark in Lorraine, mixing for various events and radio stations, including the iconic Radio-Déclic FM in Moselle. His explosive sets from that time can still be listened to on Mixcloud (www.mixcloud.com/OnBass/).

Always seeking evolution, Olivier returned to trance in 2020 under the alias "Oliver Chrisma5" (www.youtube.com/watch?v=aFzQr9gGdFQ), before diving headfirst, in 2024, into the retro-futuristic sounds of Synthwave, Vaporwave, and Chillwave.

Today, under the identity of "n o x V Λ n d e r s", he explores linear and mesmerizing soundscapes, blending melodies that are sometimes dark, sometimes bright. While respecting the unique codes of Synthwave, he allows himself to venture into other genres, notably dub and electro, while staying true to his vaporous and melodious atmospheres. Each production is an invitation to travel through time and space, a true musical journey back to the future.

His inspirations draw from the work of artists such as Daft Punk, Skrillex, Tiesto, Deadmau5, DJ Snake, Seven Lions, and Kavinsky. Additionally, he draws from pioneers of electronic music like Tangerine Dream, Jean-Michel Jarre, and Vangelis, as well as modern Synthwave and Vaporwave artists such as The Midnight, Mitch Murder, Timecop1983, and Com Truise.

É nóis que faz o ambiente ficar gostosinho.

These songs started with the words. 

I set the words, written by Riley Robinson, to chords on piano. The chords that felt right. I recorded the Casio electric piano, then my sawed-body Austin bass guitar both plugged in directly. Bass played with a pick. (a square corner of my old drivers license)

The organ pretty much follows the piano chords. Two different organ sounds were used for each song on The Black Cat Record. The same Casio.

Vocals. I recorded one, then muted it and recorded another. So that the second vocal wouldn't be an imitation. I tried a lot of the time to sing as if I were in a concert. One vocal is only on the left, and the other is only on the right. 

I recorded electric guitar plugged into a Blackstar amp, direct-in. Same pick used. I had a Lyon Disturbed signature guitar with a kill switch for The Black Cat Record, and a Squire with a whammy bar for Hex. Rhythm guitar was usually done twice, and only on the left or right, like the vocals. I like to think the left headphone is a slightly different album than the right.  Vocals recorded with a Shure SM57.

All songs recorded in my room on a laptop, through a preamp. On Audacity. One piece at a time. 


No A.I. 
No auto-tune. 
No metronome.
