THE STORY:



After you slam against the metal floor of the tunnels below the city, you

stand in a frightful silence as the guard shines his light through the

drain where you fell.  Your heart is pounding so loud that you fear that

the sound alone would be enough to give away your very presence.



You realize that you haven't been fed for days.  But hunger was not what

concerned you now.  After they have left, you try and get a bearing on

where you are now.  You don't think it could have gotten any darker than

how it was outside.



You pull out a small lighter, which you used to burn an inmate's hand

earlier that week.  The lighter doesn't help much, but at least you can

see a few feet in front of you.  You look around for some markings to tell

you where you are, but it seems as if none of the markings want to help

you.  All you have are enemies: The Prison, The City, and even The Sewers.

The only thing that has helped you so far is your luck and the darkness

that is covering the city.  However, you know that both of these will

leave you soon.  Your luck and time are almost gone.



You finally come across on helpful sign, which has been partially rubbed

out by time.  The words "L.I.C. 5 MILES EAST" are the only comforting

words you've seen or heard all night.  You assume the liquid you see below

is coming from the complex, so you gather enough strength to walk in that

direction.



You hear all of the activity above.  The sirens, the shouting, and the

helicopters make you wonder how you are going to get out of this mess

alive.  As you walk down these seamlessly never-ending tunnels, it gives

you enough time to plan how you will get out of the city.  "All I have to

do is get to the Industrial Complex, and then hitch a ride in a

transport," you think to yourself.  You still can't believe how scared you

feel.  You can't stand it, but you must go on.



You then come across a dead end.  There are no markings whatsoever here. 

All you hear is a low rumble up above.  You see a ladder reaching up the

side of the tunnel.  You start to climb, thinking that after that much

walking that you must have walked 5 miles.  You finally lodge it open, and

as you pull yourself up you emerge in the middle of the street.



THE STROY BEHIND THE SONG:



Well, it all started when I wrote the whole five part story of Laserium.

This is the second part in the series where our fugitive escapes, and

hides in the sewer system in an effort to get to the L.I.C. (Laserium

Industrial Complex).  I wanted something that was slow, a bit depressing,

and freaky.  I wanted to get the picture across as well as possible

through the music.



I then tryed to find some music that had the same feeling that I wanted to

create.  The closest I found was the Half-Life soundtrack, so I used that

as a model.  The first idea turned out to be nothing but sound effects and

a few chords... it was pleasing to the ears and had an original sound to

it, but I couldn't make a full length song out of it.



I then started another song that had some aspects from the original, but I

would use all the usuall elements of music that you would usually find

(lead, chords, bass, percussion).  I started with a really cool drum beat,

then added the chords (it took me forever to find the right sample because

I didn't want it to be a string pad), and improvised a melody.  The song

really started to take life after that point.



I did some new tricks in the song, as well as some old ones stolen from

"Ashen Skies" (like that stupid fade-in, fade-out with the cymble between

sections).  This is another song that I composed without the aid of

CakeWalk.  I'll try and use CakeWalk more often as a composition tool

(like what I did with "Ashen Skies" and "En Route").  Seeing the notes

right in front of you and using the MIDI keyboard instead of entering in

values to compose really makes a difference.  No, I'm not going to be

converted to .MIDs, but composing using CakeWalk is much quicker.



I learned quite a bit composing this song, and hopefully the quality will

increase also.  My plan is to release just one more song before I have to

go back to school again (oh goodness no, the summer is almost over).



SPECIAL THANKS:



Brad Smith for telling me to "compare yourself to the professionals and

not the amateures."  For is guidence, professional expirience, and

suggestions.



Nightwalker for re-writing the storyline (to see the completed, fully

revised and edited versions of the storyline, go to www.seteam.com and see

Laserium's info page when it goes up).



All the people who actually like my music, and all my fans (HAHAHAHA...

<ackem>... sorry), the guys at SEt, the guys at the IMM, and all of our

regular web page visitors.

57. I've been improving on my
58. drum patterns quite a bit
59. through this song.This is
60. actually the second time
61. writing this song. The
62. first idea I came up with
63. was just sound effects &
64. some chords. Then I came
65. up with the idea of
66. having a cool drum beat
67. with smooth ( but not a
68. string) pad for the
69. chords, and a flute for
70. the lead. I figured if
71. tunnels could talk they
72. would have a sound like
73. that.
75. There were many sources
76. of inspiration for this
77. tune, most of them came
78. from the Half-Life sound
79. track. As for the story,
80. well.. watch The Fugitive
81. and Shawshank Redemption
82. (I think that is how it's
83. spelled).
85. I will take a break from
86. the Laserium Project and
87. work on some other tunes.
88. Since I'm comparing my-
89. self to the professionals
90. instead of the amateures
91. I'm going to try a
92. different approach to
93. composing my music.
