Descent level 20 -- Zombie Apocalypse remake! Tons of pitch-bending on EVERYTHING makes it sound like it's being played on a guitar synth. Dark and badass.
It even has vocals... by Blaster Bamboozle: the Balladeer from Beta Ceti! =============================================== Swarm The Swarm Swarm The Swarm
Deep inside the smelter I have found a killer swarm Lancing homing flying box of death The red ones are a challenge they can sneak in from behind The blue one can make all the others stronger
All these flying death machines Are made from what is mined here Virally infected and then weaponized All these flying death machines Are made from ore refined here They must be stopped destroy the smelter Or they will reach earth
Deep inside the smelter we have found an obstacle Flying lancing flaming ship that must explode Red ones you corner him Blue ones you amplify them Grey ones you deal the final blow
All these flying death machines Are made from what is mined here Virally infected and then weaponized All these flying death machines Are made from ore refined here Virally infected and then weaponized All these flying death machines Are made from what is MINE here They must be stopped destroy the smelter Or they will reach my--
Keeps the percussive feel of the original and amps up the creepiness. Musically, instead of making a couple of big changes to some parts, I made a whole lot of little changes to the key, melody, chord progression etc. There's only really one big change in the melody and you hear it right away.
The other big changes are to the percussion to make the song feel more chaotic. Including some cool filtering effects on the drums.
Don't let it hit you You know what you see You fight the superweapon Made by a mining company It has missiles and guns And believe you me This weapon will tempt you With the power to be
Resist the temptation Fight the power Hold your own and Destroy the weapon Don't listen to it Treacherous lies! You know you want it But you won't you won't you won't
Don't let the weapon hit you! Don't let the robot see! Don't let the weapon hit you! You know you want it but you won't you won't you won't
You know that you want it but you won't you won't you won't You know that you want it but you won't you won't you won't You know that you want it but you won't you won't you won't You know that you want it but you won't you won't you won't This is the superweapon It can give you the power to rule You know that you want it but you won't you won't you won't You know that you want it but you won't you won't you won't
I'm gonna find, what is hidden inside And these killer machines won't destroy me
I'm gonna find what SD might not realize And his puny machines can never stop me
I'm gonna find, what is deep inside And these killer machines can't destroy me
I'm gonna find what SD does not realize And his puny machines will never stop me
--- Instrumental solos ---
The pyrohawk will set you free Gives you the wings to fly and all that liberty I'm gonna find, gonna find, what is hidden deep inside And there's nothing in this world that can stop me
--- Breakdown, instrumental solos ---
The pyrohawk will set you free Gives you the wings to fly and all that liberty I'm gonna find, gonna find, what is hidden deep inside And there's nothing that can get in my way!
Another D1 song I'd wanted to cover for a while. I'd had the general idea in my head for a long time but it only went about as far as me wanting it to have vocals -- and those vocals to be sung, not rapped or Ogre'd.
So fast forward to yesterday, when I just started working on it. And it came out beautifully. Then I wrote lyrics and they came out beautifully too. Generally I really like this mix, if you couldn't tell already.
A bunch of the lyrics are references to the mine (like the line about brothers fighting together), or to the moon it takes place on. Generally I think this is one of my favourites so far.
