HANNIBAL ep1 ending theme

01. Wires

To celebrate the one-year anniversary of our crowd-funded album "Cantrips", we wanted to share some secret songs. One of the tiers on Kickstarter leading up to the production of "Cantrips" was a custom song. People would send us notes and we got to work on creating their song the best we could.

Now, one year later, we got the yourname.wav songs mastered so we can share them with the world (with the permission of those who bought the songs, of course!)

The first track is "Wires", just a fun, dancy love song fitting for the fun and dancing Danielle Marie S. Danielle is a wonderful, giving, sweet person who has supported Vaporeyes in so many ways. We don't usually make songs that are super happy, but you make us super happy. Mostly our singer/keys player Jonas. 

So much love to everyone who has supported us, for "Cantrips" and anything else we have ever endeavored to do.

02 Ian's Song

To celebrate the one-year anniversary of our crowd-funded album "Cantrips", we wanted to share some secret songs. One of the tiers on Kickstarter leading up to the production of "Cantrips" was a custom song. People would send us notes and we got to work on creating their song the best we could.

Now, one year later, we got the yourname.wav songs mastered so we can share them with the world (with the permission of those who bought the songs, of course!)

The second song is for Ian Doherty, a top tier human who has been there supporting Vaporeyes before we deserved it or were any good at all..

Vaporeyes' singer/keyboardist and Ian met in a very interesting way. They are both a little obsessed with the horror video game series Silent Hill, and connected on a Silent Hill fan forum years ago. They had each shared some music in a general discussion part of the forum and discovered they were both in Syracuse. It wasn't long after before Vaporeyes and Lee Terrace, Ian's band at the time, shared a bill. The rest is history.

When Ian backed us on Kickstarter and ordered the custom song, he pretty much let us do our thing. What we promised was at least a couple minutes. What we came out with was a 12 minute long journey through Silent Hill with Ian as the protagonist. 

The music in the Silent Hill is always incredible and unique, composed throughout the years by the incredible Akira Yamaoka. We did our very best to retain the style and feel of Yamaoka-San's Silent Hill music for Ian's very own Silent Hill journey. Glad you made it out, brother!

02 Vaporeyes - Ian's Song

So the conclusion of NBC Hannibal 2x05, "Mukozuke," left us with a lot of things to think about. Abel Gideon's line about change below, while admittedly a bit generic, stuck with me (due in no small part to Eddie Izzard's fantastic delivery), and it along with everything that happened during the episode re: Will and his "admirer" inspired this bit of improv.

"All the things...that make us who we are. What has to happen...to make those things change?"

(Note that this is completely improvised and posted with minimal editing, so there are some weird hesitations and a few "wrong" notes [i.e. hitting B natural while playing in a natural G minor scale]. Also, I apologize for the ambient noise and for how out of tune the piano is.)

Mukozuke (Improv)

A song about moving on from your mistakes and how you should acknowledge them and not feel sorry for yourself

Lyrics:

There’s no sense in crying over what you spilt
There’s no mess defied by falling blade-deep on the hilt
Without dying on the hill, just crestfallen on your shield
No general practice for the soldiers lied upon the field

It’s never coming back to you
But you can come back from it
It’s all rushing back to you
No matter where you’re running
It’s never coming back to you
But you can come back from it
It’s all rushing back to you
No matter where you run

Look deeper at your actions til it fractures or it fractals
If you fall apart forever or at once it’s still a battle
You grip hard upon the mantle, romantic for that station
If you’ve been placated by a breakaway you have to face it

If you seek apologetics instead of apologizing
The reaping what you sowed grows ire where the rye is
You can’t catch up when it’s rising, higher than you’re able
They’ve fabled caning since genesis of sin inside the cradle

It’s never coming back to you
No matter where you’re running
But you can come back from it
When it all rushes back to you
But it’s never coming back to you
Though you can come back from it
No matter where you’re running
It all rushes back to you

It’s never coming back to you
Even if you’re running from it
You can come back running
The visions rushing black and blue
The past is never coming back to you
And you can’t come back to it
Memories flooding back to you
No matter where you run

Ire & Rye

My mix of music and samples from the first episode of Hannibal. 

Hannibal I Can Help Will Graham

Well you felt so safe in your nice warm keep
A nice warm bed for a nice warm sleep
Now my nice warm breath made a nice warm heap
Of embers that was once called Emon

Well you killed Brimscythe now it's time to pay
You stole our treasure then ran away
And to the half-elven twins I've got something to say:
My name is Thordak, I killed your mom

Oh the Chroma Conclave's comin' to town
Burning everything you love to the ground
So if you catch a glimpse of one of us far overhead
Don't even bother running 'cause you're already dead
Now bring us all your silver and gold
Little insects better do as you're told
If you decide to bend the knee we might keep you around
The dragons of the Chroma Conclave are coming to town

As I'm sitting on the cloudtop my friends fly east
To raze Westruun and then last but not least
We'll stop by Whitestone 'cause we're ruthless beasts
The whole world's gonna bow down to me

If you try to fight or run well good luck to you
We'll cook your hide and your family's too
And when we're hungry well have a barbecue
Don't believe it ask the Fire Ashari

Oh the Chroma Conclave's comin' to town
Burning everything you love to the ground
So if you catch a glimpse of one of us far overhead
Don't even bother running 'cause you're already dead
Now bring us all your silver and gold
Little insects better do as you're told
If you decide to bend the knee we might keep you around
The dragons of the Chroma Conclave are coming to town

(melodica solo)

Now bring us all your silver and gold
Little insects better do as you're told
If you decide to bend the knee we might keep you around
The dragons of the Chroma Conclave are coming to town

We're coming to town


Thordak loves melodica solos apparently
 2nd attempt at writing a song.
Written, arranged, performed, & recorded by me

Lyrics:

I’m saying step on the brakes, lock up the tires

It only takes a minute to get from bad to worse
when it’s glass shatter writing, a car crash verse
A one-song collision with the body of a hearse
Can you tell me what it's worth, can you tell me what it's worth?

I’m saying step on the brakes, lock up the tires
Your perfume is gone, now here is what transpires
The smell of the sun, or other smokeless fires

When I know that I must surely drown
And I raise my hands to shoot you down
Through the heart or through the wing
I know that you won’t feel a thing
And neither will I
And neither will I
And neither will I

Neither Will I

Hannibal Theme vs Destroyer of All Things - Blue Stahli

Notable up and coming producer from South Africa Collen Cohen returns to Dopewax with his signature trippy synth sounds in hand. His 2016 debut Apollo EP was embraced by tribal, techno and deep djs alike and his latest effort, Rosaline EP, is a further testament to his quality production style. The first few tracks, Hannibal, With You, Lost Vagueness are chock full of deep moody cinematic dreamscapes that you just want to get lost in. The project takes a couple of harder turns but never loses its cool, retaining its 115BPM ez flow techno with Black Snow and Fallen Tree, that make you want to carve a fresh groove on the dance floor. With 7 diverse tracks this is more of a mini album than an EP. All the better to get fully immersed into this collection of neck-nodding digital works.

Fight

Do you see me?
I 'm rabid like a dog of war
Vapid lacking action or
The thrill of chasing something down

Do you hear me?
Do you understand the words I say
In the secret language that we made  
I am better with you 
  
But it tears me up inside to see you so
loathe to let your feelings go  
Nothing is anything anymore  

I am the one   
I am the hunt  
I am the judge, jury, executioner   
I am the chase 
You are the prey  
I am ready to catch you whenever I want
 
But it tears me up inside to keep it in
Us two versus all of them
I don't want to be her again

I want to be better than I was before
This is the voice inside your head
You have always a choice to make your bed
Now you lie in it

Do you see me?
I'm hungry like a dog of war
Biting off a little more
Until I finally choke
