Critical Path

By Jazzaria on May 17, 2026 9:47 pm

How does lightning reach the ground?

Inexorably and without repetition, it follows a critical path. Where resistance is least, it descends - and consumes.

Featuring orchestral strings and brass, percussion, detuned piano, electric guitar, drum kit, organ, alto flute, boys' choir, synth, and effects.

The opening strings sound so much like parts of my track this week.  I love the orchestration and then the flip to organ and heavy guitars?  I love it.  It's all over the place and that's my kind of music.  Some great minor melodies makes it a good Halloween song too.

Thanks for the kind words! All over the place is a common theme for me, heh - and I definitely hear the Halloween aspect too.

Starts as dramatic movie soundtrack - then, when the piano came in I had strong Fallout 4 vibes and then it went totally crazy. It consumes? Like being in a horror movie, where you didn't realize you are in a horror movie until it's too late.
