Combat-Caedere I - The Weight of the Blade (v0.3)

[Instrumental - no vocals at all] [Cold open at 0:00 - aggressive strings hit immediately, scraped and tremolo, NOT drums first, NOT drone first - the strings are the foreground from second one] [Solo violin plays aggressive tremolo throughout - dirty, nervous, fast bow pressure] [Distorted cello plays ostinato rhythmic pattern - low bowed pulses, the rhythmic engine of the track] [Scraped viola sustains dirty drone underneath - bow pressure heavy on strings, wet sound] [Sparse heavy frame drum hits - one strike every 4 to 8 beats only, NOT a continuous pattern, just punctuation] [Single taiko hit on major accent beats only - 3 to 4 times in whole track, like impact] [Sub bass drone DISCRETE in background - barely audible, no distortion, just weight] [NO continuous drumming, NO drum kit, NO double kick, NO loud drum pattern] [NO heavy distorted drone layer, NO synth pad, NO industrial distortion] [The strings ARE the combat - aggressive bowing, scraped, dirty, nervous] [Berserk 1997 anime combat style by Hirasawa, Bloodborne Cleric Beast strings, NOT Doom Eternal, NOT Mick Gordon synth combat]
