Delta-S & Christina Novelli - Alive [ASOT 676]

Waiting For The Sunrise

This is a song from my sister project, Sstaria - with my partner Sheri Shaw on vocals. Hope you like it! This song originally started out as a minimal downtempo piece, but we later decided to spice it up with some dubstep and pop elements. I like the result!

Track 10 from "The Mortal Veil", the third album by Delta-S. 

This was a very personal track for me that took about 3 years to complete. I started the project before I found my birth mother, and completed it after I met her and my whole "new" family. It was an incredibly emotional, trying, and rewarding experience. This song explores my primal wounds of abandonment of losing my birth mom, and how its impacted my sense of being different.

09 Denial (With Colleen Kelly)

👑 We are the Ravens (feat. Kris Lee)!

This song is a curious hybrid between trap and industrial rock 😆 − I stumbled upon the two as I wrestled with the right soundscapes for an emotional argument.

Story: I had a scene in my mind of the daywalker's final attempt to woo his beloved Omen to the light, knowing that this would be the last he would see her if she wouldn't run away with him. What ensued was a dramatic battle of the wits. The two argue back n' forth, trying to convince the other to turn to their side.

Lyrics:

♞ 

Your wicked vows 
(Like a thief in the night) will take you all out, 
And you’re running out of time to flee these chamber walls, 
So cast away your crown (of lies) 
Back to the throne again, yeah or 
Your ghost will haunt my memories instead... 
Still I alone will serve the daylight. 
So throw your sin to the darkness 
Or go to your death. 

♛ 

What’s this? I don’t understand 
How you fell from your grave to the promised land? 
And all those things you want from me… 
Huh! They’re not gonna be! 

♞ 

Run away with me. 

♛ 

Oh hun, I’m a child of the night. 

♞ 

Your skin is lost in darkness. 

♛ 

So what? You want me, yeah so… Take me as I am or run along home to the light. 

♞ 

I am your kind, but I’m not dead. 
I wanna turn your filth into a heart of flesh. 

♛ 

But you were mine! And I won’t repent! 

♞ 

Drink the savior’s blood and never feed again. 

♛ 

Hold your tongue. 
Have you forgotten we’re the wild ones? 
And I want you to know I can’t believe in you, 
So stop pretending, come back, hun… 
To the throne again, yeah so... 
Before you take that tone with me, instead... 
Remember where you came from. 
Keep your guilt to yourself and outta my head. 

♞ 

What guilt? I thought you couldn’t believe 
In a law outside your own decree. 

♛ 

Hush baby, I’m not backing down. 

♞ 

Your “eternity” is dead at dawn. 
When the sun comes up, you’ll be gone. 

♛ 

You’re wrong. You’ll see, we are the ravens! 

♞ 

Yeah, well ravens bleed. 
I am your kind, but I’m not dead. 
I wanna turn this stone into a heart of flesh...

We Are The Ravens

Coven has finally arrived, and I'm so relieved to offer this Deceived remix, which so many of you were asking for! Enjoy 💜

LYRICS:

♞ 

I gave up looking long ago 
And washed away the dream 
With every passing day. 
I looked into the skies for hope, 
But i have nothing to show for it. 
I have nothing to show for it. 

Comon, i need a connection. 
Comon, let me inside. 
Pull back the fading darkness; 
A world screaming vacant lies. 

♛ 

I felt the lightest touch 
In the corners of my mind. 
I slipped into a dream. 
I caught a glimpse of hope 
In the shadows of the night.

Deceived (Odyssey Mix)

I found myself channeling our old industrial roots. Somewhere in between Stabbing Westward and Enigma, I found my secret place. Trying to marry the aether to some sort of decrepit factory.

I reached out to Alicia Perrone to help narrate the voice ofOmen (the female vampire in the story). I asked her to give Omen a blend of "sex kitten" and "jaded queen". I think she nailed it! What do you think?

"We are the wild ones 
Far outside the city gates 
And the sins of our fathers before us 
Beget our eternal fate. 
For who can crush our immortal throne 
Or level these hearts made of stone?" 

I don't believe your silence. 
I don't believe your lies. 
You traded me for license 
To feed off other lives. 
But liars don't deceive me 
And hunters have no game. 
Your final day is coming 
Where you'll get what you deserve... 

For blaspheming my name! 
I'll subdue you in anyway − 
To the light or to the flame! 

"A tangled web of hate 
With my anger wired in 
Mesmerised by the glimmer 
Of my crown of sinking sin."

Letters to the Lost

The original was more of a classic industrial dance with hints of Metal. This time, I put the terror back in EMB, cranked the volume to 11 on the guitars 😇

Teamed up with LeeLoo for the vocals! This girl can SCREAM!

LYRICS:

Wait, I'm not that strong, I'm too diseased, 
And i'm left shambled on my knees. 
I don't think they thought this through, 
And now it's down to just one thing. 

I am wretched! 

(Lies) I'm torn away inside 
Among the ruins of my dreams; 
My perfect little world is dead! 
There's nowhere left to hide, 
In the dark it seems the view is better than it really is! 

(In this holocaust of stains) 

I thought i had it all. 
I'm often left alone with broken toys and blood spilled on the floor. 
(Sick) Reduced to a crawl, 
In this hell it seems the pain is better than it really is. 

(Dead) Now everything is gone. 
I believed in what was said. 
Now everything went wrong. 
(Release me!) And the skin begins to fade 
So i have nothing else but broken bones, 
Decaying in these chains! 

I am wretched 
And complicated 
And I can't get through 
Anymore! 

Spilling out a flood 
of my neverending doom 
from my throne in the darkness 
that is sinking in the room. 

I am wretched 
And complicated 
And I can't get through. 

You think that 
I am wretched 
And complicated 
And I can't get through 
Anymore!

Rage Into Blindness (Immortal Mix)

I resurrected a long lost track during from days I worked on Chasm. It was in "the vault" as I call it (an older computer just sitting around). Since I finally was able to finish the story, it was neat to add some vocals and other finishing touches to make this track come alive!

LYRICS:

It’s taking me down, and pulling me underneath
I’ve entered into the darkest days that I’ve ever seen. 
They cut my spirit right down to the bone - 
Left my carcass out, in the dark, all alone! 

I turned my gaze to the east
Forsaking the power of the cross and the way of release. 
I chose for me a bride − 
Turned her to the night after she died! 

I failed to find any sign from above. 
I was choking it down like his rage was a drug, 
But games don’t last for long in hell. 
The devil came like a flood to put me under her spell! 

So I left you for the city lights
And cursed the ground i came from the grave! 

And your vampire eyes
Are starving for a sign of my return
But the only sign is sunlight
And its going to burn. 

Your heart is still firm against my knife. 

So I left you for the city lights
And cursed the lie that made us
Into creatures so depraved. 
Oh I left you for the city lights
And cursed the ground I came from
Where they formed me from the grave
And the prince of the skies. 

And your vampire eyes
Are starving for a sign of my return
But the only sign is sunlight
And its going to burn.

Omen

Remember the grittiness from Nine Inch Nails' Broken album? Something about that old guitar sound inspired a 90s industrial flavor in this piece. 🙌

LYRICS:

She's dead. Lying burned therein. 
Atrocities inside her sin. 
Deny the Holy One her state. 
The wrath of God builds up her fate. 
The glorious ones provide the test. 
Your arguments are weak at best. 
Behold your spirit thins before 
The judgment throne like a filthy whore. 

Oh, oh, oh, bad kitty 
No, no, no, bad kitty. 

Filled with pain and sorrow in. 
Rejection leads to further sin. 
The secrets are indeed divine 
Trampled by the pagan swine. 
All of you will turn away; 
No resurrection in his name 
Disregarding all I've said, 
Now cast in fire and darkest pit! 

Oh, bad kitty, 
Taste the honey on your tongue. 
Oh, kitty, 
Feel the lemon in your gut.

Bad Kitty

LYRICS:

I am defiled and darkened still 
From the way of the fire. 
And the wrath of Him who 
Wants my soul 
Sends me back to the grave 
In the cold. 

Tired of death, and I'm tired of sin. 
But I can’t shake the taste 
Of blood and her skin. She’s 
All I have. 
But I know it only lasts 

For a moment. 
For a moment. 

You own the night, and the sudden storm 
To the fallen ones 
Who usurp your throne 
In vanity. 
You keep us far outside 
Of your city. 

Take me back, I don’t wanna be 
Anymore apart 
Of this cruelty. 
I’ll wait outside 
To change or perish in the light.

In a moment 
In a moment. 

My heart was dark 
And no life was left. 
My cursed flesh went on 
While my spirit laid to rest. 
Then you brought the sun 
And you gave me breath. 
My fallen body burned to ash. 
But you raised me from that death 

In a moment. 
In a moment.

Death at Dawn

Dena Carman & Delta-S - Looking for You (Instrumental)

Sometimes the only way to overcome the darkness is to face it. Bid farewell, leave the gates, and enter the forest of the unknown. If you think that sounds like a theme for a dark fantasy film or an RPG, you wouldn't be far off – and Delta-S is the complimenting score. The electro-industrial project has been crafting mysterious soundtracks since 1995 to accompany this trek through uncertainty and fear. And along the way its sounds whisper an uncanny truth: there's a strange beauty beyond the shadows.

“Delta-S is a project that can walk through the dark places of a person's life,” explains Lyte. “It provides some context for our struggles – that our story is larger and more hopeful than we know.”

Since its inception over two decades ago, Delta-S has been Lyte's brainchild. Originally formed as a collaborative project with high school best friend Moe, Delta-S has evolved into an ongoing collective – Lyte steers the helm and with every new release guests contribute. Cameos include trance singer Kirsty Hawkshaw, EDM vocalists Christina Novelli and Sarah Russell, and British dance duo Booty Luv. And while Delta-S is primarily a studio project, even the live band has a different lineup. This rotating cast has kept the outfit alive, protecting it from decay and decline.

Similar to How to Destroy Angels, Hans Zimmer, and The Birthday Massacre, Delta-S' latest full album is The Mortal Veil, a battle against entropy. Haunting and deliciously sad, the effort is the third part of a trilogy. It follows the 13-track opus Voyage to Isis and 2015's Chasm – all three of which take you on an electro-cinematic odyssey. Currently at work on the next trilogy, the first record in the series, called Carnivale, will explore other styles and genres: big room, dubstep, folk, and even a tinge of opera.

“We are on a trajectory to an amazingly beautiful place of love, hope, and wonder,” says Lyte. “But along that journey there is darkness and terror… The music is meant to be a comfort and a friend to listeners as they confront their fear, longing, and sorrow.”

And Delta-S will be there until you reach the other side.
