Name: Those Who Seek Fortification by The Soundtrack Syndicate
Duration: 3 min 33 s
Description: I was really inspired by covering the Silent Hill song and tried using some of the production that I learned on an original. I was going for a Lo-Fi hip hop vibe and I think it ended up sounding like the closing credits from a 1970's Western.

March 02, 2025 - 1000 listens, this is my first original to break 1K; thank you all so much for listening!

[ If what you hear is what you fear
There ain't no coming back
Your cognitive dissonance
Prevents you from listening
If what you hear is what you fear
There ain't no coming back
Your cognitive dissonance
Prevents you from listening ]

[ Contradictions
They live inside your head
Staunch convictions
Must be put to rest ]

[ If what you hear is what you fear
Don't ever make a sound
The silence must be deafening
When someone else does the talking
If what you hear is what you fear
Don't ever make a sound
Your cognitive dissonance
It complements your ignorance ] 

[ Mother Nature
Comes to collect her debt
Your religion
Seems to have overstepped
Repent ] 

[ If what you hear is what you fear
There ain't no coming back
Your cognitive dissonance
Prevents you from listening
If what you hear is what you fear
There ain't no coming back
Your cognitive dissonance
It complements your ignorance ]

Isn't It A Shame

‘Tangled Truth’ captures the chaos of unraveling what we believe to be real. It’s a visceral dive into the frustration of chasing clarity through layers of deception, doubt, and introspection. The song mirrors the inner turmoil of trying to piece together a fractured reality while wrestling with the truths that refuse to stay in place.

Tangled Truth

TRUTH BE TOLD

I was really inspired by covering the Silent Hill song and tried using some of the production that I learned on an original. I was going for a Lo-Fi hip hop vibe and I think it ended up sounding like the closing credits from a 1970's Western.

Those Who Seek Fortification

All songs on the album (except Neverland) were conceived, created, and completed from Winter 2023 through to Winter 2024.

I’ve been writing, playing and performing music for over 30 years. I retired from performing music when the quarantine hit because of multiple disabilities and nobody wants to see a crippled old guy trying to hop around on stage. 

I have had several songs featured on soundtracks for independent movies and thats what inspired the name of this project. I will work with other musicians remotely anytime the opportunity presents itself, so never hesitate to ask(that’s where the syndicate part of the name comes from). I’m open to any style of music, any contribution to the music that you want to try and if you hear something you like it should be free to download; I just ask that if you’re considering using anything for a soundtrack that you contact me first.

Thanks for stopping by the page, listening and participating in independent music.
