steel and circuits was written to please. with that in mind, please enjoy. if not, my synth arsenal and i will be forced to kill you and destroy all you love. thank you.
electronic industrial gam
terror mechanism brings a prolific blend of electronic, industrial, video game, and film score/classical to the front.
i tried to infuse my music with emotive qualities. i wanted the music to come across as a blend of classical and soundtrack/film score with touches of video game music and some modern electronic/industrial/dance. every so often i sneak in a bit of tribal and arabesque sounds. basically anything and everything, so long as it does not repeat too much. i want to make music and going to see a show an enjoyable and entertaining experience again. more than anything, i want to push the boundary of what is expected from electronic music and blur the divisions that have grown between genres.

Story behind the song
this is the central song from the third album, where the main character realises that there is another ego in his psyche, trying to tell him that even though his body is now mostly mechanical with programs controlling what he does and how he feels, that it doesn't have to be this way. the song is supposed to play between two voices, two different characters. i wonder if anyone will note the rhythmic twists and turns this song takes. pay close attention to the drums, especially about mid-song.
Lyrics
Steel and circuits What secrets do you hide in your mechanical body? I promise not to tell anyone What nightmares do you hide in your mechanical body? I promise not to stare at the sun Drain my life take my eyes Steel and circuits cannot cry Pierced wire flesh, mercurial beauty Threaded through the ashes, feel the impurity Breakdown of the system virus spreads Without my energy you would be dead What secrets do you hide in your mechanical body? I promise not to sell my soul What future do you hide in your mechanical body? Erase my destiny, I lose control Take my dreams, feed me lies Steel and circuits cannot die
