I'll continue my producer diary. I'll write a series of short entries, that do not go into very complex details over my whole productions, but give an overview of a specific track
this time it is about:
Hell Is Only A Word (Believe It Or Not)
https://lowentropy.bandcamp.com/track/hell-is-only-a-word-believe-it-or-not
This one was released on the "Armageddon" compilation by United Gabba Alliance Records. Back in 2019.
I think the label is defunct by now.
I later re-released as a self-release on the "Just Another Speedcore Shock" compilation.
When I wrote this track, I was a bit at a creative slump. I had more or less abandoned the Slowcore sound I "started" in 2017, was back to doing Doomcore again... but it did not feel as energetic anymore.
Most of my tracks were quite melancholic, and meandered with long, complex, glockenspiel or chime-like melodies. A bit like "depressive doomcore" if you will.
Because I felt I hit a wall, I went back to speedcore. A style I only sparsely did after... 2003 actually!
So it was quite the return, if you want.
My "speedcore" had mutated in the meantime, though. No longer the "full on to your head" noizecore I did in the 90s.
Which can be seen in this track.
It's overloaded with samples and sounds, speeds and drums change many times.
Plus there are influences and throwbacks to many other genres. Notably hardtrance, gabber, even a bit of goth and... doomcore once more!
