Happy Thursday, listeners; this is Brandon. It's been about four days since the most recent part of OMORI went up, and the next part of that is planned for a Saturday release. I think bridging the gap until then with a new song is an excellent way to pass the time. You'll like this one, too, I'm sure of it.

The year is 2017, and I'm working on several projects under the direction of one of my most creatively brilliant friends, who went by Doctorine at the time. One such project they were working on was UNDERTALE related, and it was a fun spin of a beloved existing story directed by Dorked, which is called Inverted Fate. They aimed to take Dorked's unique story and "swap" the character placements, essentially putting all of the characters back into their original UNDERTALE placements while keeping the unique designs of Inverted Fate. As you can see by the design, Sans was an actively public scientist rather than Papyrus. This project, dubbed "Mirrored Inversion", never really made it out of the developmental stages, as it was mostly a fun idea, but it was fun to work on nonetheless. I had begun work on a final boss theme for Sans, simply titled "explain.", mirroring a popular boss fight concept for Papyrus at the time, which was titled "WHY?"...but I never finished it. Despite that, a preview of it I posted on a website gained much attention, and the song was remixed hundreds of times over as a result. I never really did anything officially with it again until May of 2019; I created a remake of the song that played on a strong 80s tone, with a heartfelt reference to Queen's "Another One Bites the Dust". It's been over two years since then...

The modern age calls out to you in "Cognitive Assumptions", a wondrous reimagining of an age old song. Feel the laid back spirit of our favorite skeleton as you enter a brand new audible adventure of passionate soul and funk, listening to meaningful solos of the clavinet and soft electric keys, all with a filling bass tone and drum track to boot. Despite these unique elements, you'll find no shortage of epic orchestral composition; a powerful set of strings, brass, woodwinds, and choir will convey the emotional weight of UNDERTALE and its beloved story. Hearing familiar compositions from UNDERTALE, such as "sans.", "His Theme", and "Once Upon A Time", will refresh your memory of this wonderful adventure. Butting heads with a calculating, esteemed professor of chemistry and psychology will be frightening. You will feel rattled by deep and dark synthetic tones that play on your fears as you descend to his basement laboratory, time and time again, to face him in mortal combat. He will continue to collect data on your efforts at survival for further research...will you beat him?

Sampled Tracks/Credits:

Interesting Facts:
- This song has a whopping twenty eight hours logged in the last project, but forty hours over three different projects, each with their own ideas.
- The original "explain." was one of my most beloved previews to be posted.
- The website that I posted my previews on, which was unmentioned above, is a now discontinued website titled "Instaud.io". I have many fond memories of using the site.
- I cannot say that I have a favorite part this time, but I will say that I specifically included the melodies of "His Theme" and "Once Upon A Time" to play on the heartstrings of a beloved friend, Timothy (it worked, trust me).

Bye!
