ngl im deadserious when I say this but as a avid enjoyer of contemporary classical and modern music in general (also as a fellow contemporary composer) I think this piece might be one of the most fascinating work ive heard in recent time.  It seems to combine a lot of eclectic styles ranging from and outside of postmodern classical (I hear some progressive influences in the electronic production like perhaps some DNB, IDM , and PC Music)  You also happen to combine these vibrant, abundant, and weird styles in a perfect way (I can’t act like I understand all of your influences but it seems pretty new stuff mixed with contemporary classical) Its purely liberating as a artist to hear this type of music being made in the contemporary era

When seperating out your potential influences or perhaps concepts that could have inspired you in my opinion it dosen’t feel anything radically new or anything but the combination of all these different ideas creates and synthesizes a absolutely incredible (and fresh) experience I also think it provides a enjoyable experience that dosen’t compromise artistic integrity or innovation Its wildy experiemental yet comforting and also emotionally charged I think you bring a new enegry to contemporary classical and really influences/concepts the genre felt like it was missing for the longest time Compositions like these are what makes me want to pursue music and make me feel awe If you continue to innovate and provide cutting edge works this will be the future Simply incredible shit and I can’t give less congrats than this

Your journey has led you to a mysterious looking portal. Holes in the floor try to bite you and the tentacles sticking from it get more erratic the closer you come. Your instincts tell you it's a bad idea, but you feel an irresistible urge to see what's on the other side. The light is so bright and shiny...the ambience coming from it, so soothing. And it's not like you have much to look forward to in your own world..."fuck it", you say, and get past the tentacles.

You take a step into the unknown and suddenly feel the light surrounding you and filling your entire body. It feels...stretchy. Maybe a little too stretchy. It keeps pushing and pushing and pushing and your skin feels tighter and tigher and...

Oh. You died. Like, combusted.

I don't really know what to do now, I wasn't prepared for that situation.

While "INTRUDER" was somewhat a teaser for my 2024 album, this is just a very out of pocket random release lol. I was asked to make a song with the vague concept of "main character dying in the middle of the song'' and I proceeded to do just that! Made this one all in one session and it was so.fun.to.make. Hope you enjoy, much more things coming very, very soon ;>.
