The track "Map checking" is the main key in the album "Origins Of Fantasium". It is the musical embodiment of the largest and most mysterious location in Fantasium, in the depths of which portals to the far corners of the Universe are concentrated. We are talking about a legendary place called the “Singular Abyss” – a central point for communicating with distant galaxies through black holes spread throughout space.

As ancient legends say, in this abyss the creators of the world deployed a compressed version of an exact copy of the entire Universe, updated in real time. The island, using sound waves, navigates and controls this epic space. And he is helped in this by a sound card, on which every smallest speck of dust in the Universe is recorded.

The track depicts one of the moments when Fantasium conducts a routine check of the sound map of the Singular Abyss, making sure that each segment is relevant and accurate. In addition, during its verification, every movement and change in this stellar labyrinth is monitored.

Thus, after each check, the entire Universe lies in the palm of Fantasium’s hands, like an ancient and memorized manuscript in the strong hands of a great wizard who performs the same sacred ritual over and over again.

“Map checking” is a mystery track that is difficult to penetrate due to the depth of its significance and mystery. And this was done quite consciously, so that only a worthy mind could touch the universal network and be imbued with its life-giving harmony.

The musical composition is reminiscent of elements from the magical rites of ancient civilizations – after all, they knew much more about the island of Fantasium than the modern inhabitants of this planet, who literally have amazing magical metamorphoses of galactic proportions taking place unnoticed under their noses.

Vibrations from the sound frequencies of the composition carry access codes to the far corners of space. It is these vibrations that form a complex sound map, with the help of which Fantasium controls not just the physical elements of his Singular Abyss, but also time loops, which makes him a true guardian of time and space.

The composition is saturated with echoic vibrations, which scatter with invisible streams of energy throughout the entire space at the speed of magic, creating an aural background reflecting the depth of the Singular Abyss. Harmonious inclusions of mystical sounds in this space are transformed into mesmerizing cascades that seem to be the voices of distant stars.
The island needs all this to “ring” its abyss, as a result of which the ultra-precise sound map is updated.
As the track progresses, listeners can hear subtle yet clear droplets of sounds that are crystalline markers in this cosmic symphony. They are like markers on a map indicating important points in the structure of the Singular Abyss when collecting data.
In the final part of the track, the sound waves gradually fade away, leaving behind the echo of a successful sound card check. It confirms that the island is a reliable keeper of cosmic secrets, which is ready for new challenges in managing the cosmic order. This work is the key to understanding how Fantasium, through sound vibrations, maintains communication between all elements of the Universe.
Each sound in this track symbolizes the complex and sophisticated system of magical sound signals through which the island communicates through black holes with other galaxies.
Thus, the task of this composition is to tell listeners about the scale and grandeur of the work of the island, which tirelessly maintains order in the multidimensional world, using sound as the main means of control and navigation in the space-time continuum.
What else do you think is hidden in these sounds? What secrets can they reveal?
This is not just a track, this is your invitation to become part of something truly great. And who knows, maybe you will be the one to hear and feel what has escaped the attention of others.

ABOUT TRACK
A lonely and black tower, half-hidden in the darkness, shrouded in an extremely gloomy, oppressive atmosphere... There is smoke, there is steam, and flames, and a scream, and a grinding sound in the darkness, and someone’s whisper; there is fire, and ice, and dead trees.At its base, the giant gate has a moat infested with king cobras; also, black crows and bats. There are demons and monsters, witches and sorcerers. Perhaps there is someone else in the tower itself, and the lights from the lit candlesticks are visible; from the tower, myriads of eyes look at the viewer... But the main magician and sorcerer did not choose his path himself – people forced him to do this, and the witcher uses his black magic for protection rather than for attack. He is an exile, a recluse, an outcast because his worldview does not coincide with the opinion of the majority; therefore, he snarls with caustic, bitter, caustic truth against universal injustice, coldness and callousness (unwittingly becoming bad and evil himself). He is driven into a corner, he opposes himself, his principles to the whole world, the System, and is very offended that society sees in him only flaws, vices, shortcomings, as if he has absolutely no qualities, virtues and talents. It was not for nothing that this unrecognized genius chose a tower as his stronghold: towers and caves are the lot of loners. The sorcerer's gaze is filled with revenge, hatred and malice – but at the same time – regret, pain, fatigue, sadness, melancholy, torment, suffering, remorse. But just as in “Yin and Yang” there is neither absolute evil nor absolute good, so the sorcerer hopes that one day he will be accepted for who he is, and the Lady he loves will reciprocate. Then the tower will turn into a beautiful castle, and the moat will become a marvelous, clean reservoir, and the cobras will turn into swans faithful to each other for life, and the crows will become swallows, and the bats will become kind fairies. And the trees will bloom, and all darkness around will dissipate.

ABOUT ALBUM
“The Shadowarden Of The Witchtower” is a 2024 music album composed and recorded by Lars Gert and in the thrash/death metal genre. The topics are mostly topical (with some exceptions). Powerful tracks are “7 Chapels Of Hell”, “Witch’s House”, “Hannibal The Cannibal” - this is his magnum opus, the ideas of which have been worked on for over 10 years. Other tracks on this long play have no less impressive riffing and complex structure. The composition “The Dream Of The Philosopher” is the only calm thing on this release. The composition “Lemmy The Motörbiker” is almost entirely made in d-beat, dedicated to Lemmy Kilmister and inspired by the work of “Motörhead”.

The Shadowarden Of The Witchtower

I made this track a bit heavier by replacing the keys and synths with distorted guitars. I sang it as it turned out, in one take, without preparation (I am not a professional vocalist).
For the 20th anniversary of the original. I really like that song and it's really cool.

LYRICS
Laura, Can't you give me some time?
I got to give myself one more chance.
To be the man that I know I am.
To be the man that I know I am.
Won't you just tell Cincinnati,

Don't you give me your love?
Don't you give me your...Ch'mon,

To ring the band that I know I'm in.
Won't you just tell Baby Daddy,
I'm gonna need his love.
Why don't you give me he love?
Why don't you give me he...Ch'mon,

Where is your love?
Don't you give me your love,
Don't you give me your,

Don't you give me your love.
Don't you give me your. This'll be the last time,
I ever do your hair.
(Tired of this sh**, Swear I'm going quit,
Can't seem to make enough dough,
But my cutting's on a roll,)
One face among the many,
I never thought you cared.
(Seen enough stuff, Thought I got rough,
Now I know it aint so, I gotta live my own!)

Never, never paradise
Ever, ever, ever dies
Sevendays pouring rain
Sevendays couring pain

(I) see an evergreen hell
Hear the mosquito yell
Feel, feel the wood smell
Near swamps I fell
Forest spell, jungle dell

Malaria, anemia, bacteria, pyrexia

If you survive
Walking dead alive
If you survive
Walking dead alive
