[Title: Hollow Transmission] [style: male vocals, dark trance / melodic shoegaze-post-metal hybrid. wall-of-sound guitars, heavy reverb/delay, fuzz distortion, ethereal buried backing vocals. shimmer atmosphere, funeral-dirge paradox, joy refracted through sorrow.] [primary arp crystalline, sharp, irregular subdivisions, never leading overtly but implying motion. ghost arps motion-delayed, creating reflections. irrational delays form temporal parallax. elements slightly misaligned.] [dreaming, creeping, exploding. existential dread masked in melodic euphoric haze.] [silence behaves as pressure, not absence] [intro - static motion pushed off course] "Trajectory, m-m-miss a-align-nd"[robotic P.A. warning, chopped, glitched, misaligned [+7R / +17L] "m-m-m-miss" [robotic P.A. warning, chopped, glitched, misaligned [+4R / +14L] "uh-uh-uh-aligned" [robotic P.A. warning, chopped, glitched, misaligned [+12R / +3L] [verse 1 - the drifting signal] The dark calls... and in its shadows- your eyes haunt... trajectory gone... cold hope... blooms... live wire sparks- sends shivers to my heart... frequencies unknown... repeat the hollow call... Transmissions repeat... [chorus 1 - lost in signal] ooohhh.... hmmmm.... ooohhh... mnnnyeaah... send it anyways... ooohhh.... hmmmm.... ooohhh... mnnnyeaah... will it return to me... [verse 2 - confusion in transmission] green lights flicker, red tones drone, static hiss... internal miss... origins unknown no address... one-way signal ready to slip— intrepidation… I lose my grip— [bridge - exhausted, afraid, accepting] I keep transmitting— but the voice… isn’t mine anymore... was that you there, or just the dark... Hollow transmission (found again...) [chorus 2 - lost in signal] ooohhh.... hmmmm.... ooohhh... mnnnyeaah... send it anyways... ooohhh.... hmmmm.... ooohhh... mnnnyeaah... will you return to me... [breakdown - sorrow, pain, suffering, and courage to press on, mixed singing and screaming. Heart throb beat.] if we ever meet again WOULD YOU KNOW MY FACE IF we ever meet again WOULD YOU KNOW MY NAME IF WE EVER MEET AGAIN would it be like yesterday IF WE EVER MET AGAIN would you even say hi or just pass me like static… [guitar solo blurring the edge of trance - bendy, ethereal, delayed, breathing] [trance swell interlude] [final chorus - outro] ooohhh.... hmmmm.... ooohhh... mnnnyeaah... Hollow... ooohhh.... hmmmm.... ooohhh... mnnnyeaah... Transmission... ooohhh.... hmmmm.... ooohhh... mnnnyeaah... Hollow Transmission... (…still sending…) [pressure dump] [end]
