Inna the Echo Chamber [Intro] [Deep, rolling bassline with heavy delay. A single snare hit echoes into infinity.] [Vocal Echo: (Whispered)] (Mercy... mercy... cy... cy...) [Verse 1] [Drum and bass only. The vocal is dry and close.] Inna the echo chamber, I call on Jah name The system is a vampire, playing a wicked game But I receive protection, a shield around my soul His mercy is the anchor, that keeps me in control [The music is suddenly drenched in reverb. A piano chord hangs in the air.] [Vocal Display: (A wordless, melodic moan that trails off into a long delay)] [Chorus] [Full rhythm section drops in, heavy and slow] Jah goodness, inna the echo! Jah mercy, inna the echo! Protection, inna the echo! His love will never let go! [Post-Chorus] [The drum track drops out completely. Only the bass and a heavily delayed guitar skank remain.] [Instrumental Display: The engineer plays the mixing desk, sending the guitar skank into a frantic, stuttering delay, creating a new rhythm from the echoes.] [Verse 2] [The vocal is treated with a deep, watery reverb, sounding like it's coming from a well.] The heathen them rage, but their words are just vapor Jah write my name in his holy paper He sees every tear, he hears every cry He'll never forsake you, he'll never pass you by [A siren wails in the distance, drenched in echo, becoming a melodic element.] [Breakdown] [The bassline is isolated, then the drums are slowly brought back in, piece by piece. The snare drum is hit with a massive, gated reverb. The vocal is just a series of fragmented words.] [Vocal Fragments:] "Pro...tec...tion... (echo)... Mer...cy... (echo)... Good...ness... (echo)... Jah!" [Final Chorus] [Full, powerful, and immense. Every element is drenched in effects.] Jah goodness, inna the echo! Jah mercy, inna the echo! Protection, inna the echo! His love will never let go! [Outro] [All instruments drop out except for the bass, which continues its hypnotic pattern. The final sound is the bass note repeating, getting quieter and quieter until it's just a vibration.] [Bass... bass... bass... vibration...]
