| Saga Musix presents: Eating Your Heart (3:39) |
|____________________________________________________________________|
After starting work on my other Nordlicht 2025 entry (Cave Of Time) - which
was originally meant to be my tracked music entry - I looked into possible
tracks for the streaming music compo. This unfinished One Hour Compo track
from 2016 seemed to fit the bill. After spending a lot of time polishing it
on my way to Nordlicht 2025, I started to realize that it was actually a
much stronger track than Cave Of Time, so I wanted to have this track enter
the tracked music compo instead and decided to swap them, and put even more
work into Eating Your Heart.
This is not my usual stuff. It is much darker - and probably my first non-
comedic use of a distorted kick drum. The track is about the fallout of
a person's substance abuse that I had to deal with around the time it was
written in 2016. I think the substances were eating their heart.
