============
This is my third Warframe-based song, and it's content matter is quite deep in the game (like, extremely recent story-release wise), so I'm not going to talk about it much for the sake of spoiling it to those unaware, but this is a song written from the Operator's perspective post-Apostasy Prologue. 

With that, once again I've attempted to write a song that addresses the lore at this point without constricting the lyrical meaning to the game's playerbase- as much as it is about Warframe, I've always felt that songs that over-state the game's lore are a bit... patronizing to the listener. That said, I do name-drop the apostasy, so.... 

Compared to Codex, I didn't really use the selected samples "musically", but rather just to add atmosphere. They're EQ'd and quiet compared to the music, but you'll hear them quite prominently when they sound off.

I think that's enough talking for now, but before I send you over to the lyrics- if you haven't heard it, I wrote a song concerning The Stalker! If you like this song, consider taking a listen: https://youtu.be/PPf26dlX-iQ

And with that, the lyrics are below! Thanks for listening!
============
[Verse 1]
I can't begin to imagine where you've gone
Somewhere within, a feeling something's wrong
I'm wearing thin as the mirror sings your song
Wondering if your voice will be gone long

[Pre-Chorus]
When the world's on fire
Cold desire will bring us down
If you're not around
The sadness dire
I'll rise higher than ever before

[Chorus]
Come on, say something, why did you go astray?
Come on, say something, will you return one day?
I'm calling, "say something," into the distant space
But you're just too far, just too far, just too far away

[Verse 2]
I can't stand still ruminating
Your apostasy
Some long lost will approximating
What was meant to be

[Pre-Chorus]
When the world's on fire
Cold desire will bring us down
If you're not around
The sadness dire
I'll rise higher than ever before

[Chorus]
Come on, say something, why did you go astray?
Come on, say something, will you return one day?
I'm calling, "say something," into the distant space
But you're just too far, just too far, just too far away

[Bridge]
For as far as I can see
There's something in the way, it's distorting
Reality, mentalities 
As if there was nothing to say

We're in our prime, but out of time
And I don't want us to fade
But we're just too far, just too far, just too far away

[Chorus - Reprised]
Come on, say something, what's up with the delay?
Come on, say something, I'm tired of playing games

Come on, say something, why did you go astray?
Come on, say something, will you return one day?
I'm calling, "say something," into the distant space
But you're just too far, just too far, just too far away

[Outro - Bridge Reprised]
For as far as I can see
There's something in the way, it's distorting
Reality, mentalities 
As if there was nothing to say

We're in our prime, but out of time
And I don't want us to fade
But we're just too far, just too far, just too far away

All The Platinum In The World

This is my submission for Tenno tunes which I only found out 2 weeks ago and never actually knew that there was Vol: 1 or Vol: 2. 

This piece is inspired by the Apostasy Prologue cinematic presented by Digital Extreme within the game Warframe. 

I can only mention that this cinematic indicates how much more a video game with majority of its game play about slaughtering hordes as a space ninja provides. 

As I have been inspired to actually share my music to the public by Digital Extreme by providing a music contest for Warframe, I want to send my greatest gratitude to Digital Extreme by creating this soundtrack. 


Great Thanks to: 

Digital Extremes - http://www.digitalextremes.com/
[DE]Helen - For assisting me in adjusting the soundtrack for submission.

I decided to make a nice energetic Trance track for the current "Tenno Tunes" contest for Warframe. The song features some of the sound effects from the game, plus our very own "Space Mom" with some words of encouragement. Enjoy!

This is the short edit of the track. The full version is here: https://soundcloud.com/erkenfresh/wake-up-find-the-power-within-yourself

quick track mix made for the Warframe competition Tenno Tunes Vol 4.

I have been very sick with the ful over the past 3 or so weeks so the tune didn't really come out the way i wanted it to but the competition closes very soon so this will have to do.  

Enjoy and come and play Warframe, it's the best free to play game out there :D

FORTUNA

Vengeance for Deck 12

colossus in the lake
daylight falls when it wakes
the earth begins to shake
footsteps before the quake
lures to jack
arcanes to stack
when i hear those words
searching for
shattered pieces of yourself
carry shards of long lost wealth
another token on the shelf
shrine of favor in your name
return the capturing of fame
ancient trinkets to obtain
only need to choose a frame
