merger of a lot of different ideas
i used to listen to a lot of beats antique
also frippertronics
the intro is an homage to that technique
doing scratches was fun too
i like to think the myst soundtrack was an influence on it too
really listened to the uru and myst iii soundtracks to death

The other is Ruins Rising, which is, again, another treatment of Ruins by Erik Scheele. This one, the guitar intro is kind of drawn from the Frippertronics technique of Robert Fripp, and, it actually features a lot of re-re-record scratches and cool textures that I hadn't really experimented with before. (Caption: "God bless the fruity scratcher")

Redrew an idea I had a while ago, except way better and quicker and whatnot.
