After 12 years from release, together with the album "Entrance - 12 Years of HAVOC", I decided to make a self arrangement for Entrance, reflecting my change in production style all over the years.

I have always loved to make orchestral music, but without the knowledge and assets I was not able to make decent ones, until about 2013 when I first get some fundamental sounds for a full orchestral arrangement in L2.

I was in a cover band back before I started composing music, and I was the drummer. I always loved heavy metal, and I have always hoped that one day I can make a full symphonic metal song. Heavily inspired by Metallica, especially its symphonic live performances, I made this attempt to totally rearrange the song so that it could be live performed.

This was the bonus track for "Entrance - 12 Years of HAVOC". It is a memorial album for 12 year debut of my very first commercial tracks, as well as the album of the same title, "Entrance". 12 remixes were selected from "Entrance Remix Invitation", a song contest that I held.

Entrance - The Origin of HAVOC

So happy you found me here♪

My goal is to create grand original songs with an atmosphere similar to rock or metal, layered with piano and strings.
The main themes of the songs are emotional themes such as love and dreams, as well as natural themes such as the universe, the world, the sky, and the sea.

I recorded the guitar, bass, piano and drums myself, although I'm not very good at them. 
This track features vocals by Koharu Rikka (小春六花), a singing voice synthesizer.
Some elements like certain string parts, ambient sounds, and subtle adjustments were programmed using MIDI — although some of the string sounds were also played and recorded using an electric piano.

In particular, I love and cherish the structure of the songs, including the piano playing, the powerful and beautiful melodies, and the worldview created by the strings.

I hope my original songs reach your heart.
