Darren Douglas Danahy From the first few notes of music here, I am completely drawn in to this heavy, futuristic sounding piece - grinding and slamming like a factory floor - when the bullhorn sounding vocals come in shortly thereafter bringing the music to a frenzy worthy of my favorite Einstürzende Neubauten tracks!

about

I had a lot of fun with last week's industrial track, so I wanted to create one more. For a change I have added spoken lyrics (I would not call it a rap) and wrote own lyrics for it. As usual the track is based on a Moog-Jam. Unfortunately the Moog-track came out in B flat. Therefore I had to tune down to B flat and the Schecter sounds already a bit muddy with this super-low tuning. However I am satisfied with the a bit crazy and over the top atmosphere. And while I am not satisfied with the guitar-sound I am very satisfied with my new way to shoot the video.

Guitar: Schecter KM-6 MK III
Synthesizer: Moog Subharmonicon and DFAM
Camera: Sony Alpha 6100
Lens: Sony SEL-50F18F
Recording device: Boss BR600
Microphone: Beyerdynamic M88 TG
Video editing in Motion 5

lyrics

Self-Optimization

Who wants to keep with me up
Outer doors are already shut
Inside I have everything cut
Self-Optimization

Daylight sees me working so hard
Nightlife is a thing of the past
Learning makes me smarter than smart
Self-Optimization

Muscles are burning in pain
Why am I so selfish and vain
One more rep will drive me insane
Self-Optimization
