⫻⫸ The year is... well we don't really know exactly anymore. We stopped using the Gregorian calendar once we needed a specific universal time between citizens of different planets. Now we use T.I.M.E: Time in Measured Entropy. Where we basically use a certain point of chaos as our reference point and then just keep counting it up according to stuff decaying and exploding and everything. I really wish I could explain how measuring how "chaotic" the universe is works, but I've sat through like 3 entire lectures about it totaling 8 hours and I still don't understand. Anyways. Back on topic. The T.I.M.E is 380,686,239. After like way too long, we finally discovered how to change the entire biological structure--and DNA-- of any living thing. Granted, we only allow doing it to sentient life, but theoretically you can turn yourself into whatever the heck you want. Within reason. Your .lyf file has to be approved in order for doctors to even let you touch a BAM (biological alteration machine). Despite this, people still think this is dangerous and we shouldn't be doing it, but like come on what's the worse that could happen? People become werewolves or something? Well good for them.

Also yes, I am aware it's kinda weird how I'm able to talk about these things from the future to people from the Grounded era, but like you wouldn't understand anything going on otherwise. Also Grounded era is the time when Earth citizens still were *only* living on Earth, and didn't have contact with non-earth citizens.

i don't really have a name so you can just call me the Lorespoiler or something idk make it up

[---------------------------------]

Thank you Lorespoiler for the ominous lore introduction. This is -lightningpig now btw. It's finally done! This is my most high effort music project to date by a LOT. The thing is, this is really just a project within a project. This album is the start of something much bigger than I've ever done, and bigger than a lot of you have ever seen. And you know how most music projects with some kind of story have it kind of hidden or hard to follow along with? Yeah I'm not doing that. It's less like music that has a story, and more like a story done through music. Pursuing this project will probably limit me somewhat in terms of my theming, but that's something I'm more than willing to do because what's coming next...
will surely...

⨵ We've finally found out how to change our biological structure, including genetic material, entirely. The process is extremely complex and involves sound waves, ASI, and a heck ton of nanobots. But it's surprisingly simple to set up the machine itself. So basically, we don't even have to be humans anymore.

> Combines orchestral dubstep, rock, 200step, color bass, breakcore and kind of artcore into one absolutely crazy track. Inspired by a lot of Japanese EDM. I would probably call this orchestral color 200rockstep but that don't do to well in the tags.

Honestly I'm extremely proud of how this turns out, and I think it serves as a great introduction to this world I'm creating with my music. Also my first time actually singing in a song of mine!

⨵ Alright, yeah I think I'm ready. I genuinely hate the look of human skin, so yeah thank goodness I don't have to put up with that anymore. Oh, right, the file. I'll just text you it. I actually designed the model myself. Took like a week but it's worth it, I think. What? No, it's not a furry! It's just... slightly fuzzy, alright?

[y2024]

> Tried something a bit slower and intense than what I normally make, super proud of the sound design! Took a lot of inspiration from Everen Maxwell, and honestly this might be my hardest track to date lol

⨵ I’m… so sorry to say… but he… he wasn’t able to escape. We only have a limited number of escape ships and the collapse was so… unexpected. Current working theory is that there was just too much electromagnetic pollution and a lot of radiation waves just pointed at the star at once, making a kind of invisible laser. We think. Maybe. It’s a really weird theory that doesn’t seem like it should work, but… it is what it is…

[y2024]

This song was so good it immediately got someone to make a Geometry Dash layout of it when it was still in WIP and the first drop wasn't even done x(oo)x

Anyways, I started making this immediately after finishing this one music production summer camp that Asaniel found and lovingly (but platonically) dragged me into! This is *very* rhythm game inspired but I also did my own thing a lot of the time.

⨵ HOLY- WHAT IS THAT?? / UHH I THINK WE MESSED UP / YOU THINK??? WE’RE GONNA DIE / HOW DID THIS HAPPEN / Wait. THIS WAS INTENDED?? I just checked their LYF file and it perfectly matches their appearance, who would do this to themselves???

[y2024]
> This was gonna be a collab with a much larger artist, but he just didn't have the motivation. But that's okay, because honestly I'm really proud of how this turned out by itself, and the album was taking forever smh. First drop has got to be my heaviest drop yet! I also tried out extratone and I gotta say I never expected to make extratone ever but it's kinda fun tbh

Hands in the air, watch me roar across the whole nation

⨵ One of the hardest challenges in making enzyme-like nanobots was the ability to change stuff on the lagging strand, since you kind of have to work backwards. The thing is we even have to leave gaps in just the right way for ligase to actually do its thing.

[y2024]
This song is kinda the entire reason this album exists in the first place! I learned about okazaki fragments in biology class and thought to myself "that sounds like a rhythm game and/or rhythm game influenced song" so I got the idea to make it into an actual song, but then I also remembered this whole concept I made about biological alteration that fits into this huge storyline I'm making. So, I made a whole EP that turned into an LP based entirely on that! Hands down my best rhythm game music I've ever made. Actually we. Asaniel COOKED with melodies and sound design. That melodic drop was insane. Also psytrance and experimental dubstep stuff. GO FOLLOW THEM THEY'RE CRACKED @asaniel

⨵ Why do we even have this much control over ourselves in the first place? This is stupid. This whole situation is stupid. They should have listened.

[y2024]

> This turned out WAY cooler than expected. I think out of all of the songs in the EP this one has the most emotional impact, which I'm really happy with. I experimented a lot with hyper chorus and dubstep sound design stuff. A lot of it is inspired by Zoftle, go check him out he makes the *coolest* throwback dubstep stuff.

Follow @asaniel because he's epic

---------------------------------

Is it a blessing, or is it a curse,
To be bound from the grasp of Earth?
Were we truly meant to be
The flesh and bones of old?

Now it feels, Now it feels like
An alternate dimension:
One with monsters in every corner;
Our altered life’s no true correction

We’re broken free, We’re broken out,
But our instincts bind us even now
Do we deserve to take the world
And take control, and take control

Wish we could go back, back to Earth
Green trees and a limited lifestyle
Can we go back to a world,
Without the altered -out the altered
life

(-out the altered)
-Out the altered life

THIS IS ALTRD LYF!

(-out the altered)
-Out the altered life, without the altered-

THIS IS A- A- ALTRD LYF!

Wish we could go back- back to Earth
Back when identities had worth
Green trees and a limited lifestyle,
Take me there, oh take me there,

Broken free, broken out the universe can’t control us now ooooh,
Do we deserve to take on full controoool?
Can we go back to a world without the altered-
altered- altered- life?

Broken free, broken out the universe can’t control us now!
I have to get back the only question here is how,
Back to an older time when we were part of a safer world
‘Cuz now we’ve seen how human freedom truly comes out

I hope for blessings, not a curse
To be bound from the grasp of earth
We weren’t ready then, we aren’t ready now
But I feel some day, we’ll be somehow

Wish we could go back, back to Earth,
Green trees, but unlimited lifestyle
But we aren’t ready, ready now
For an altered, -for an altered
Life

⨵ Look at this. I'm holding something on my fingertip. Can you see that? That's right! You can't see it! That's what's so cool about it! I mean, on its own, it doesn't do too much, but with thousands or millions of these running everywhere through your body... it's one of the most powerful things mankind has ever created.

> In the middle of making this album, Chime released Micrology and Phosphor. Which, since my album was about using really tiny robots to do genetic mutation and transformation stuff, I HAD to make a micro song. Ended up not doing a micro color bass and more just micro dubstep. The result sounds like nothing I had ever heard of before.

testing testing… yep it works. Alright. So. I’m here to talk about the state of the world right now. It’s, supposedly, pretty great. We, as a society, finally just figured out how to truly be ourselves. By… not being ourselves, I guess. I think the reason it took us this long is we were too focused on other stuff like dyson spheres and battling the resource crisis because of said dyson spheres. And I mean we still haven’t solved it, and dyspheres still are way too expensive to produce, but I mean I guess figuring out how to become literally anything is cool and all. But to be honest, *reverse glass* I don’t think it’s gonna work out. *intensity picks up* I mean, humans, by nature, aren’t really the best at being good people. If it wasn’t for IPSA we probably would have been still using atomic bombs and mega lasers. I mean, who’s to say that nobody’s gonna find a way to use CRISPR for the worse? I mean, you can be anything now. Someone’s gonna end up being a monster some way or another. Regardless, this is the world we live in. For better or for worse, this is altered life.
