Hum: Neat! It has a mysterious and mystical vibe that I've been listening to on repeat for the past little bit. It's a great slice of ambiance. Watr: Okay, this is Epic. MegaGames. Favorite out of the bunch by a slim margin because it strikes <i>hard</i> at that early 90s PC gaming sound born out of the demoscene while still maintaining a good Darius groove. This right here, this is Darius firing cylinders and being awesome. It's significantly better than... Hell: Yep, that's what I'm gonna hear for eternity when I die. I just rolled my eyes after the first couple seconds. Ironically simplistic in being complex for the sake of being complex and barely anything more. I get it, I really do, but it's the weakest out of the bunch to me because it does nothing but repeat the themes and tones of every other "Darius wildin' out" track that flies off the handle. I feel like I've heard this track a hundred times now over the years, and it's aged like cheese. It's this side of Darius that made me immensely dislike the alias for years before re-examining his discography and picking the good pieces out to hold them up individually on their own merits. It's nice that others enjoy it, but this is not for me and after 4.5 years of this track's token inclusion on most Darius records, I don't think it will ever be anything more for me than "...goddamn it. *skip, <i>sigh...</i>*" New: <i>STRONG</i> use of Lunatic Calm, leading into what essentially hits the exact spot between Mayhem at her prime and current Mayhem. Both sounds are present, and serves both of them very nicely, working together harmoniously. 2nd favorite but it's really close. Tonerow: Relaxing and relieving, like when taking a break in an Endless run of DDR, but with a tiny bit of uncertainty that bubbles up a tad for just a few brief moments here and there.

keep in mind, these are for a game, mus_hell isn't going to be something you put on to listen to - none of it is really made with that in mind first. any enjoyment on its own is gonna be secondary hahaha it does say a lot that you refer to it as "this track" though when the variety across the atonal stuff on each darius record (halley's comet [the most aimless of the bunch, i had a lot of learning to do] / équilibre parfait [the exact opposite of what it says it is] / digni;currency [super playful and snarky] - oh no, i forgot to do one for framedrag!!! LMAO) is pretty immense. hilariously, tonerow comes from a similar school of composing, and has no tonal center either ;) serialism and post-tonality baybeeeee and, no, not complex for the sake of being complex! this piece is definitely way simpler than some of the others in this very post. it's tense, it's ugly, and it's defiant, and rather than being complex, is overwhelming and confusing. it's the encounter you don't expect, the one that breaks all the rules and defies the very thing it prepared you for. complex for complex is fine, but that's not what this is lol. what this is, however, is your taste getting in the way of you understanding why it exists the way it does and just results in "ho hum, more wank, time to toss it aside". "tonerow" is the genuine wank here - it's an exercise in giving each of the 12 tones of 12tet the same amount of weight over (x) amount of time by using all 12 tones in a melody and progression and then transposing it across all twelve "keys" (which don't exist in this kind of music in the first place). that is complexity for complexity's sake. there is like 0 emotional investment here, it's an exercise, and what comes out is what comes out, and that evokes what it evokes. and yes, i'm going to keep replying to your shallow reactions to atonal music, because there's a world of AWESOME stuff within that, while you may not like it, is totally worth understanding and considering the same way you consider other work.

It's really not my thing. I've given the style several chances to grow on me, but it's never sounded palatable outside of (in relation to Darius) "Halley's Comet" and "digni;currency." It's not to say that I don't respect them, I do, but I do on technical skill alone - at the end of the day, I need music that's more than that. Yes, I'm sure to you it's significantly more and worthier of time than something more simply designed, but it never is for me. That said, I do enjoy reading how you came to compose something, and where you came from when you made it. The techniques and intent of the artist when composing are things that holds a lot of weight to me, and helps me to gain insight into any given song. While it's cool to know for music I enjoy, it's much more helpful for music I dislike, because indeed, I come out at least understanding it more and appreciating it that way. And yeah, my views on atonal music are shallower than Skyrim, haha. I can hear the technical aspects no problem, but I've never felt emotionally connected to pretty much anything other than Merzbow at the absolute nadir of my depressive periods. It's part of the reason why I appreciate you still taking the time to talk to me and helping me to at least appreciate what went into the track. I know in recent years I've had a tendency to be fairly harshly critical from an emotional standpoint more than a logical one. Even after realizing that, old habits die hard. I guess I should be thankful you opted to educate instead of eliminate!
