Two years ago, I recorded the melody on an electronic piano, created the intro, backing, and bass using MIDI data, and added a vocoder to complete the YMO - Behind The Mask cover.

Lyrics
___
(Ja) (Ja) (Ja)

// Cinza get some Fire on The Mic //

Weißt du noch als ich mit dir am Bahnhof gechillt hab?

Haben uns unterhalten über eine Freundschaft.

Du sagtest mir, das du diese Sachen nicht mehr im Visier hast.

Doch ich wusste genau das du Lügst.

Du hast mir gesagt du willst das ganze einfach vergessen.

Denn du bist es gewohnt. (Gewohnt) 

(Ja) (Ja) 

Ich habe gesehen wie du dich zurückhalten musst.

Denn du wusstest genau, das du diesen Moment gerade hasst.

Aber musste das echt sein das du mich hier anlügst?

Heißt du wie meine Ex oder magst du es wenn du die anderen Betrügst?

Muss die Zeit vergehen um deine Sachen einzustehen?

Wieso wird es denn so Dunkel?
Kann die Wahrheit nicht mehr sehen.

Sind deine Wahrheiten nicht gerändert, wie in Minecraft?

Sind nur 3 Chunks geladen, wieso kann ich dich nicht sehen man?

Bro, ich dachte das du jetzt ehrlich bist, und nicht diese Show machst.

Wieso ist alles so Fake man?

(Ja) 

(Mhm) 

(Yeah)
 
Erinnerst du dich nicht, an den Call letzte Nacht?

Diesmal wollte ich eine Antwort, die mich echt mitgenommen hat.

Du erfuhrst das mich das, seit Monaten mitnimmt.

Du hast nicht erwartet das du dich ins schlechte verändert hast.

Ich habe dich gefragt.
Ich wollte das du es mir sagst.
Und du hast. (gesagt)

Du willst das ganze einfach vergessen, denn du bist es gewohnt.

Ich habe gesehen wie du dich zurückhalten musst.

Denn du wusstest genau, das du diesen Moment gerade hasst.

Aber musste das echt sein, das du mich hier anlügst?

Heißt du wie meine Ex oder magst du es wenn du die anderen Betrügst?

Muss die Zeit vergehen um deine Sachen einzustehen?

Wieso wird es denn so Dunkel?
Kann die Wahrheit nicht mehr sehen.

Sind deine Wahrheiten nicht gerändert, wie in Minecraft?

Sind nur 3 Chunks geladen, wieso kann ich dich nicht sehen man?

Bro, ich dachte das du jetzt ehrlich bist, und nicht diese Show machst.

Wieso ist alles so Fake man?

(Ja) 

(Mhm) 

(Yeah)

// Cinza get some Fire on The Mic //

(Yeah)

(Oh)

(Oh)

(Oh)

Wieso ist alles so Fake man?

Behind the mask, it’s make believe

Behind the mask, it’s make believe

Give ‘em whiplash, the best of me
Behind the mask, all I can be

Give ‘em whiplash, the best of me
Behind the mask, all I can be

BR
Any role you wanna play 
Can start a chain reaction
It’s all fun, a masquerade 
Of fantasy distraction
So get on down and get a taste
Of lovin’ satisfaction
Where magic and passion can happen

Behind the mask, it’s make believe
I make a splash, set myself free
Give ‘em whiplash, the best of me
Behind the mask, all I can be
Behind The Mask

🎶  Full Dark Afro Tech Experience | "Behind the Mask" | Into the Shadows

In this episode, Tim catches up with el Presidente himself, David K. Montoya, for an unexpectedly raw and deeply honest conversation. As June marks Men's Mental Health Month, Dave opens up about his late-onset depression, the ongoing therapeutic journey of writing his autobiography, and how taking off the mask of “Business Dave” has revealed the vulnerable person beneath. But it’s not all heavy. They also dive into the exciting return of Mario Martinez as Editor in Chief of Dark Myth Comics, the upcoming Chronicles of the Unknown anthology, and the legacy of comic books in Dave’s personal and creative life.

Forever thankful for my family, co-writers, mentors, producers, and the vocalists who bring these songs to life with their voices and passion.

Living with less than 10% of my natural hearing and knowing it continues to decline, I’m deeply grateful to still be able to create and collaborate on the music I love. I hold onto the hope that technology will let me hear until the very end, because I can’t imagine a single day without song. ❤️

“One idea may ignite a song, but it takes a team to make it sing.” – R.P.

My songwriting spans pop, rock, country, folk and children’s music, film, TV, and media. Every project is a chance to explore a new emotional landscape, and I love blending styles to let each song find its own voice.

🎧 The New Of The Tower
Welcome to a new, underground, dark world...

🎭 Musical Style & Artistic Evolution

🚀 Avant-Garde Dance Music Without Borders
The New Of The Tower is an independent, self-taught project that fearlessly pushes the limits of dance music with a unique fusion of genres. Officially described as a mix of dark techno, tech-house, electro, and experimental pop, it also incorporates elements of trap, punk, and even classical music.

In practice, each track oscillates between club anthems and conceptual sonic experiences. For instance, “Velvet Guillotine” (2025) is a hypnotic techno hymn built on heavy percussion and distorted vocals—a true “surreal sonic ritual” under neon lights.

The sound is always matched by a cinematic, underground aesthetic: strobe lights, cyberpunk visuals, and immersive atmospheres define every release.

🌍 Eclectic Influences & Genre Alchemy

The New Of The Tower draws from a wide range of sonic traditions:

🏴‍☠️ Dark techno and industrial groove infused with gothic textures and anarchic punk (e.g., “BRUTAL!!” — a chaotic journey of distortion and rebellion).

🌍 Afro-Tech House meets rock guitars à la AC/DC in “Love Letters” (124–126 BPM).

👺 “Masquerade of Bass” blends melodic techno, dark psytrance, and retro synth-pop.

💃 Spanish-language tracks like “Marionetas” and “Vidas Rotas” fuse flamenco sorrow with trap beats and deep 808s.

🎷 “2:59 AM” evokes Amy Winehouse-inspired jazzy cloud-rap, while “She Danced Through Storms” travels through deep house and jazz fusion with a cinematic touch.

🧊 “Still Echoing” merges melodic trance with nostalgic 80s synth-pop.

🧬 Each track is a bold cross-genre experiment: from industrial club bangers to dark electronic ballads, always rich in texture and emotion.

🎛️ Sonic Palette: Instruments & Effects

🎹 Synths & Melodies
Analog pads & leads (often vocoder-enhanced) create retrofuturistic atmospheres.
Punk-style distorted guitars and 80s synthwave textures bring cinematic depth.

🥁 Percussion & Rhythms
Hard techno kicks, metallic hi-hats, tribal drums, and trap-style 808s.
Layered acoustic and electronic elements make for dynamic and precise beats.

🌀 FX & Processing
Rich in glitchy clips, VHS noise, deep delays, and reverb-soaked vocals.

Examples: “Love Letters” is drenched in lo-fi and VHS textures; “4 Malos Polvos” features glitchy ambient layers and emotional auto-tune.

🎨 Each sound is carefully crafted to contribute to a vivid, cinematic soundscape.

🎤 Vocal Treatments: A Sonic Chameleon

Vocals range from:
🎙️ Melodic singing (English & Spanish)
🔥 Punk shouting & spoken rap
🤖 Vocoded retro textures (“Still Echoing”)
💔 Melancholic auto-tuned lines (“4 Malos Polvos”)
💣 Confessional, emotionally intense deliveries
🗣️ The voice becomes another instrument of emotion, soaked in effects like reverb, delay, filters—ranging from ghostly whispers to ecstatic screams.

🌑 Emotional Climate & Storytelling

The overall emotional tone is dark, introspective, and visceral.

Themes revolve around:
💘 Passion, heartbreak, rebellion
🧠 Subconscious states & urban alienation
🕯️ Ritualistic, trance-like experiences (e.g., “Velvet Guillotine”)
🌆 Social suffering (“Marionetas”, “Vidas Rotas”)
😈 Raw eroticism & shame (“4 Malos Polvos”: “each drop is a stab disguised as a caress”)
🎞️ Romantic melancholy in cinematic settings (“2:59 AM”, “She Danced Through Storms”)
🎬 Each track unfolds like an emotional chapter, offering catharsis, vulnerability, and mystery.

📽️ Conceptual Artistry & Vision

The New Of The Tower is not just music—it's an immersive audiovisual concept.

💀 Explores themes of dystopia, poverty, guilt, rebellion
🏙️ Brutalist club visuals, cyberpunk aesthetics
🕯️ Emotional depth with non-commercial intent
🎭 “4 Malos Polvos” = a “dark confession for love sinners,” cinematic and raw
🌀 Each release = a journey through shadow and rhythm
🕺💀 Dance meets darkness—a kind of electronic film noir where each beat tells a deeper truth.

📈 Style Evolution: From EDM to Darkness

🟢 2019–2022: EDM & electro-pop beginnings (Feel EP, “You And Me” — catchy and bright)

🟡 2024: Transition into melodic techno (“Not Living Without You”)

🔴 2025–Present: Shift to dark techno, darkwave, flamenco-trap, and experimental storytelling (“Velvet Guillotine”, “Marionetas”)

🎭 From mainstream dance-pop to raw, conceptual electronic music—always evolving, always fearless.

🎼 Comparable Artists & Influences

🧩 The New Of The Tower resonates with:

🧨 Brutalismus 3000 (techno-punk dystopia)
👾 Perturbator (dark synthwave)
🌘 Mind Against / Recondite (melodic techno & melancholia)
🎤 Boy Harsher, Massive Attack (dark vocals, trip-hop moods)
🔥 Anyma (techno emotion), Latin trap/fusion for its flamenco-trap leanings
🌌 But ultimately, it defines its own world—one built from dark techno, darkwave, nu-jazz, and trap-rock fusion.
