Description: Aluminum wrapped tape at nightgrinder.bandcamp.com

Chris Kohler and Sam Claiborne join up for another single-game exploratory session, this time centered around the original Final Fantasy. More like Final FantasTIC, right???

Retronauts Episode #70: Final Fantasy I

Inspired by the new in-game radio chatter heard at stations. This custom-made hour long track adds a layer of sci-fi ambience to the universe. It evokes an atmosphere of interstellar radio communications, electronic signalling and space static. The volume and frequencies used add a level of ambient immersion, without distracting from or fighting with important in-game sounds and official radio chatter.

Instructions: Simply play the track in a browser as you play the game.

Animus - Side A

Lyrics:
All we love is just projection.
I attach to my perception.
I rest in constant necrosis.
Enslaved when I can transcend.

We are not but dogs of reason; 
We think, therefore we Know

And this is the 
Emptiness, yes
I exist and yet 
I do not exist
And all is ever as it was.
I am she who becomes
While she sees it all
Come undone.

I loathe that I am delicate; 
I fear that I’ll live forever
Deep within - my own dissension.

Renewal of my mind
Chrysalis
Coalesced thesis and antithesis
Metamorphosis
Eden, I am Bliss

I retreat
Retrieve 
Descend from the
Base of the tree
Collecting fragments
Archetype Appurtenant
Cleanse
Ascend
Arise with
Ancestral…
Cognizance

Find myself drifting, fading
Arms open, death embracing 
Metanoia reaches; reaching.

Resurrection
Perfection within perfection
Revolution of soul, of self
Conscious mutation

Remember that we are Faceless.
Only Radiant, Nameless, Shapeless.
Formless, Eternal, Ageless,  
Into the source we return.

Metamorpho

Lyrics:
Do we all eventually disintegrate?
What’s it like to live with half a face?
Struggling keeps the predator at bay –
Secretly I plot my escape.

Self as oppressor – malicious – aggressor 
Half you, only half-true, I see you unraveling
So distraught as I destroy myself from within

What’s it like to live with half a face?
Who are you when you’re not just reflecting me?

You hold the past against yourself.
I see through my diamond shroud –
INTO YOU, I see truth

Kinetic and blind
Mo-Men-Tum-In-To
Transcended Mind

Taking flight
Self abandoned

I see the mirror, I know the way
I see my Self in everything
This is the beauty of being free

I re-state, do we all eventually disintegrate?

Ambidextrous

Greetings trans-dimensional entities!

As you all can plainly see, a small rift has formed between this dimension, and an unknown location, namely the hidden audio laboratory of visionary glitch wizard, Jim Kimchi. Upon closer inspection, the rift was emanating something that must be music, but it was of such an advanced nature that it was unlike anything this terrestrial world has ever heard.

Jim Kimchi opens the door to a new dimension in glitch music with his Pure Gravy ep. One rife with intentional errors, programmed collapses, and crumbling structures set amidst dissolving holograms. A world in a perpetual state of disintegration, shown to you through many different lenses and angles. Each track seems built from impossibly complex structures, forever locked in a cannibalistic dance of consuming itself to make itself.

Pure Gravy EP is available in digital and limited edition vinyl! The vinyl will contain exclusive versions that cannot be heard anywhere else!
