unsure how much of the distortion was the track and how much was listening to it on the speakers built into this computer screen but i like it.

Epic. Love the layers of sound, this is awesome.

That sound on the opening...guitar? keys? Sounds awesome! Remind me of Arc of Bar by Japandroids (you just sent me on a Japandroids youtube crawl, just back 30 mins later haha) How'd you get it?

it's a guitar going thru a lot of compression and fuzz! i started this track by strumming a E power chord at 230bpm and then layered in other parts. it ended up not feeling like 230bpm at all, its fun how that works out. i think lumin processed the guitar afterwards with a tremolo/gate afterwards to make it choppy. - vera

Thanks, I will have to try that out, it sounds great. Yeah I've noticed that on a couple tracks recently, seems like the BPMs I'm using are just going higher and higher, I almost went past 300 the other day, but no, it was too much haha. - John

So dense.

The section at 2m10 is quite epic. Love the huge low synths with those lead guitars. Very very nice.

What a fascinating trip of a song.
