delightful work, emotional and delicate ,love the vocals and composition

Very very cool! Love the arrangement. A fine video too!

You paint a picture with this track. A poetic experience enhanced with your musical contribution. Bravo.

love that harmony!!  and terrific dramatic performance by Durge --c'mon there's plenty of Broadway that ain't this good!

What a brilliant theatrical performance amazing vocals and  what a production job you have done here, love the harmonies and amazing sound effects ,

epic production of this great musical idea-fabulous singing !!! Wonderful video - you sure have a great talent in may departments!!

Transported to the opera, I was bolted to my seat, watching the scenes unfold. Amazing production - vocals, instruments, all go together so perfectly!!

this harmonising makes the song - love the ambition and imagination - brilliant

This is a first for Daniels & Durgy. An indulgent bit of fun we had in composing and performing this melodramatic Halloween themed extravaganza. To make it even better we have two of our best friends, Todd & Mike, joining in for the instrumental bridge near the end, something you won’t want to miss! We recommend a string of garlic and a silver stake in hand as you dare to venture into the mist............................   Video on YouTube for some added fun: https://youtu.be/_XPgAU8Mqms

Lyrics:

Silence, awakened by moonlight
Eyelids, open wide with the sound of the rain
Shadows, they creep from each gravestone
I rise up among them, as she calls out my name
Calling, her song high and haunting 
Wanting, the lips that I fear
Ohhh, marching, like a corpse hit by lightning
Frightening, but compelled yet to see her

She’s my beautiful nightmare,
My blood inside her, love is in vein
Cold, is the need as I’m bowing 
Howling, In the thunder and rain..
Mercy, I'm begging for freedom
From the life that she feeds on
With the bite of her kiss

Oh, I know you have what I need
But the moon has compelled me to feed
But there’s something inside your eyes that confounds me.. 
A rush that dispels me…
And some how I can feel your heart beat inside me
It’s lifting the curse that’s been there so long
Can you finally save me?… You’re the one I’ve been waiting for….

Darkness, I'm chained to this darkness
Like a slave in a harness, for one moment of bliss
I'm a slave in the mist
With the bite of her...terrible kiss

Slave In The Mist

An emotive, downtempo triphop soundtrack to chill out to 🤍
Sometimes the best things are worth waiting for...

The lyrics are dedicated to my former workplace from a few years ago. I knew I had to one day do something. Little did I know it was with music. 😉

This song began with Josh coming up with the fonky-ass bass line and sharing it with everyone else. First up to bat was Ken, of course, who really matched the idea I had for the bass perfectly and gave it some flavor, too. Once we had a rhythm section solidified, Tez jumped in with the Kruangbin inspired arpeggios, and really gave the whole thing the flavor that it ended up with. Scotty followed soon after with his melodic/rhythmic leads that match his awesome vocal melodies. Next up was Stephen, who laid in the fiery solo towards the end, as well as some really trippy e-bowed guitar throughout. Then JJ came along and lit it up with his electric piano and synth. Finally, Chris came forward and added the distinct, exciting guitar intro. 
  Of course, we needed someone to produce and mix it, so we asked Tez to handle this one, which he did with his usual high wizardly magic. It is very gratifying to all of us to have Chris back in the mix on this one, as well as some upcoming releases, as well. This was the first time any of us has collaborated with Scotty, and we are thrilled that we finally got a chance. He's a creative, driven, and very agreeable musical partner, who's willing to work with us until we all get it right. We all hope this is just the first of many with him involved. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it. 
Original lyrics by Scotty:

Can't afford no fucking mortgage. 
And I can't pay no fucking rent.
I would rather you probe me 
than get fucked by our government
who attempts to control me 
and put nonsense in my head.
Who would rather see me
livin' in debt or end up dead.
Come and take me away.
Beam me into space.
Fly me to a planet
where there exists no hate or greed.

Take me to Utopia.
Teach me all your ways.
Save me from dystopia.
It's time to turn the page.
Something better must exist
out there beyond the stars,
where everyone can love and live,
unlike what's become of ours
