My first breakcore attempt, that's why it sucks so much. The music samples is Dilated by Hacksaw To The Throat. The other samples are from a video of some insanely drunk metal head vomiting and falling over.

Hacking up yesterday's regrets through today's dilated throat

A song about the time when the world still seemed ok...
This is probably a song by veralpträumt

Lyrics:

Oft nun denke ich an damals
Als noch heile schien die Welt
Das Licht der Strassen gelb erhellt
Wie das Glimmern eines Mahnmals
Eines Mahnmals meiner selbst

Lichtfreund an der Hand,
Ein grinsendes Gesicht,
Aus Pappe, Kleber, Farbe,
Doch das stört mich nicht

Das Rascheln kleiner Füße
Begleitet den Gesang
Und so ging alles einmal
Seinen wahren Gang 

Stachelige Beeren liegen auf der Erde kalter Haut
Entreißt man ihre Huelle wird der Mensch erneut erbaut
Ein Abbild meiner Selbst, ein klitzekleines Ich
Zufriedener Geselle, Abglanz alten Lichts

So klein und auch zerbrechlich
So nichtsahnend und rein
Doch rein nur oberflächlich
Während Schimmel greift das Sein

Verfall vorprogrammiert
Vom Moment des Sturzes an
Es war schön, dich zu haben,
Ruh in Frieden, kleiner Mann

Doch nun - das innere Kind ist schon lange fort - werden die kargen Straßen nur noch von der weißen Zerhehrung des kalten Neonlichtes erhellt. Und das Kind in mir stirbt. Ein letztes Mal.

Erinnerungen an Laternengänge

Definitely not documenting my descent into madness.

Ooh Ah Ooh (WIP but also finished)

I was at a concert featuring Ahab and Ultha yesterday. I also wrote with ChatGPT about Dostoyevsky's Underground Man.
The result of these two (almost) simultaneous events is a song, inspired by the two bands, and with lyrics written by ChatGPT. 

Female vocals by Johanna :3


Lyrics (by ChatGPT, slightly modified by me):

[Verse 1]
In the shadowed hollows, we linger still,
Beneath the weight of eternity's chill.
Hollowed stumps, bereft of light,
In th dance of day and night.

[Chorus]
Swaying in the shadows of the abyss,
Bearing the burdens of our existence.
Yearning for solace in the depths of despair,
In the funeral dirge of life, we sit in our prayer.

[Verse 2]
Eternal meaninglessness floods our souls,
As we stumble through the abyss, lost in the fold.
A barren landscape, devoid of grace,
In the silent void, we seek our place.

[Chorus]
Swaying in the shadows of the abyss,
Bearing the burdens of our existence.
Yearning for solace in the depths of despair,
In the funeral dirge of life, we sit in our prayer.

[Bridge - Yearning Background Vocals]
Oh, sweet oblivion, embrace our weary souls,
In your cold embrace, we find our final goal.
Yearning for release from this endless night,
In the gentle sway of darkness, we take flight.

[Outro]
So let us sway in the sweet melancholy,
In the funeral doom of existence, we find our folly.
For in the hollowed emptiness, we find our song,
In the lethargic embrace of eternity, we belong.

Shadows in the Abyss

This track is generated by the image you see here (hence Les Fourchettes: "the forks"), in the brilliant non-linear music generator Midinous.
It's my first proper attempt at using it.

Moon Strider - Les Fourchettes (Dance of the Space Whales)

[Verse 1]
Once I strived
For things that
are now
Forlorn

Once I yearned
For solace
that is now 
gone 

[Chorus 1] x 2
Time passes
By and by

Gripping it by the hands
I turn it back

[Verse 2]
I will strive
For the things that
shall be mine

I will yearn
For a better 
Tomorrow
   
[Chorus 2] x 2
Time passes
By and by

Gripping it by the hands
I turned it back

Time, broken

First finished song in a while, something different. This was a fun one.
The solo is whacky and a bit of a joke on purpose btw :D

Lyrics:
[Intro]
Where is the compassion
In your heart?

[Verse]
You hurt those below you
You worship those above
Only hatred t(o)wards others
But yourself you love

I think that it’s time
For your dues to be paid
So better buckle up, bitch,
You’re gonna get laid

[Chorus]
Whips, chains, and leather
Leather, whip, and chain
Whips, chains, and leather
Better get ready to feel the pain

Whips, chains, and leather
Leather, chain, and whip
Whips, chains, and leather
You will get more than just the tip

[Bridge]
Why should you
Dole out pain
Only to get
Away again?

Why not endure
The same fate
You impose
On those you hate?

[Chorus again]

[Outro]
Where is the compassion
In your heart?

Hatred Begets Pain

Drawing On The Demiurge

2 days ago, I discovered Neural Amp Modeler, a free and open source amp modeler (links below). Then I saw Burzum impulse responses on ToneHunt, and just had to make a kvlt song.

Lyrics and artwork by GPT.

A breath, eternal.
The wind, a hymn.
Time spills like ash.
All fades, all begins.

Steps carved in shadow.
No path, no end.
The trees hum secrets.
Their roots transcend.

A thought, dissolving.
The self, unwound.
What was, still lingers.
What is, profound.

The void, a mirror.
Its gaze, my own.
Through its still waters,
Truth whispers: alone.

Veil of Ages

Veil of Ages (Trve Kvlt 48kb)

I found this (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=86Qee9mo9pI) backing track and decided to write guitars for it. The result is something I'd put in the realm of Technical Death Metal, though it has quite a pop-ish feeling to it at times. Anyway, I'm not too well-versed in mixing stuff, but I hope you'll enjoy it nevertheless. 

Cheers
