A St3vor presentation...
NGE - The Attack On Dogma
=========================*
All is well at Tokyo3...
EVA 01 is under repairs after the last Angel unleashed
it's might upon the EVA team. Shinji Ikari, after the battle
had gone home to spend some time relaxing. It is a hard thing
to adjust to at age 14. being one of the world's ONLY saviours
can really ruin ones carefree childhood. The alarms went off,
The strobe lights flashed. Another ANGEL has come. Before he
knows it, he is back in his EVA. Rei and Auska in thier EVA's
at his side. The ANGEL advances towards Terminal DOGMA. The
blood is pulsing through Shinji's veins at the speed of light.
Rei, as usual, didn't appear to be feeling any adrenaline at all.
Auska, as confident and ready to battle as ever.
An Shinji... Scared Shitless as usual.
The ANGEL, ETA 2 minites from the terminal...
The panic is gripping Shinji like a vice. The fear of him almost
completely overwhelming, yet he knew fear is sometimes your
greatest ally... All is silent awaiting launch command...
The command is sent, the EVA's on the move, The ANGEL sighted...
Shinji can feel the fear and panic take over as he, and his
female comrades Rei and Auska, advance into combat...
=================================================================*
This is a leap of faith into an unknown style. After 7 weeks, another
release to my name. But a first for me indeed. Can't imagine how I
managed this because it started off with funky breakbeat idea that I
thought would end up in the ditch. Neon Genesis Evangelion is one of
my favourite cartoons. I have been thinking of composing a theme I
could relate to the monumental Manga series for some time. I must say,
that this is a super fast-paced, super intense industrial bash with some
great sound. I couldn't think of anything different in the way of leads
for the end section, so I hope you don't mind the repetativity too much.
and one more thing to all you tracker folk:
**Never underestimate the power of the BreakBeat!**
Please feel free to use the samples in this module. I know how hard it is
to find really high quality industrial samples around now days. I got most
of these samples from the following legendary mods:
t2.xm, MAGNIFIC.s3m, addict.xm,
The rest of this mods samples are by me.

The key behind this piece is the backstory, the anime series of Neon Genesis Evangelion. That storyline draws together two normally clashing styles, and makes them work together in a way that manga seems to catalyze incredibly well. Strangely enough, the frenetic breakbeats and industrial power noise actually form a very laid-back atmosphere. St3vor kept the breakbeats in the background, making them a highlight, rather than the main focus of most of the song. This let him play around with areas of relative simplicity, phasing out the breakbeats when he needed more intensity, and bringing them back in unobtrusively to start building up to the final climax. The piece is actually very simple musically, but it makes for a good listen. Excellent tech work, here. St3vor drained every single last drop of usefulness out of a single breakbeat pattern, and really picked out some ideal samples for this sort of sound. All of the decay and handling work is done by hand, in effects, but it makes for a well-crafted sound all around. Mind the mixing... This module clocks in at over forty active channels at its highest points. But if you want the greatest effect from this module, listen to it on a quality soundcard that supports surround-sound. St3vor made strategic use of the Surround commands for great effect with the environmental crashes, which could truly stand out on a good system, though even a sturdy pair of headphones does justice to his stereo effects, flinging sound from one edge of the spectrum to the other. There are one or two places where volume shifting is choppy, and the distortion guitar sounds overly intrusive when it's not being tremored, but overall, the technical work is handled competently. This will make for a unique addition to an Industrial fan's library... But any Manga fans will recognize the style as straight out of many dark futuristic Anime films. Those who like the style won't want to pass this up.
