                        THE LAST VERGE       by Eterman
                           (3 min)

          Monotonous techno pop. I don't care.
          If someone likes this, it's good.

        (Turn off your brains and leave your taste outside.)


        Leap beyond the last verge, over the ultimate
        threshold. Float above space and time and forget
        what their artificial meaning once was.
                Don't try to understand.

                Control it. Want. Be. Touch the existence.

 Where once was dust, there is now the ocean.
                                No colors.         Thoughts.
        Energy.                        waving.
                Finally. You will swim.
 and                     You will swim in ocean.
 then                    You will swim in ocean of comprehension.
 you will
                Finally you know.
 find                   In that ocean.
                You know that you but want.
 it                     You swim.
                And that's the only purpose.
 is
        What you once called learning, is no more.
 you            You know but creating.




        Inspiration credits:


        -Elliot Goldenthal and his master score for movie Heat;
        the end of the movie where Pacino stands next to deNiro's
        dead figure as the view is elevated and the awe theme music
        emerges in the background.
                (The music in Sphere is also good)

        -Mike Oldfield and his music. No particular piece, actually,
        but rather the way his does the thing no-one else can. The
        method is enormously inspiring.

        -Lauri Erlamo and his tale of Myriad Alpha. I'm sorry about
        the beat I added. I'll mix this again some time and make
        it more to your taste. Somehow I owe you that.
                (The melody, the idea, the chords, the themes,
        might fit in (the rhythm would be abandoned). I hope you
        know what I'm talking about.

        -Countryside of Savitaipale. The nature is quite beautiful.



        This music:


   No conscious copying here. All music presented here is original.
 I recall no music so similar to this that I might be expecting
 someone to accuse me of musical robbery.



   Hokay. Now, there is a techno bass in this tune. I've always said that
 a techno bass but cheapens any song. No good melody needs a techno rhythm
 behind it. Making techno is the easiest way in producing music. It's not
 much art for me. But. Well. Now there is a techno bass. Here. In my song.
 So what's going on? Have I sold my taste in music?
   Basically, this was a test. It began on a though of making a song
 without using NNA's. Why, Impulse Tracker allows up to 64 actual channels
 at a time and it should be enough. So I tried. No NNA's. Making music
 like FT2-lamers. Wow. Cool.
   I made pattern 00 and started thinking it sounded quite good to start
 with (not necessarily to be the beginning of the song, but rather the
 beginning of working on the song). Then I went on to another pattern and
 cut off most of the instruments only leaving a few: Cello, xylophone and
 that "high sound"-thingamajig. I had an interesting start after taking in
 that three-chord progression (then later with Ab added to the end). So.
      What should I do then?         What about a techno bass?
   Sounded ridiculous. Me using techno bass? Or any techno-pop-dance
 rhythm. I don't like ABC's (already been chewed). But I gave it a try.
 Added a techno bass and then hi-hat and tambourine. That was it. It
 sounded quite good. Hope someone likes the result.
   Do I like it? Well. It works okay. But it's no phenomenal piece of
 music. Techno or dance influences are not bad, but neither are they the
 purpose itself. The melody is. The chords etc. Of course accents are
 important, but I don't think there are such in techno. Or in dance. Or in
 this particular tune.
   Perhaps it's a bit lame. Perhaps it's ABC. Perhaps it's cheap.
 But at least it works.


                -But how do you know
                if I'm really serious?
                     How do I know,
                if I ought to be.



  ...so much bull that no-good new-age/modern/techno/wannabe-poem
  at the beginning... It's no problem for me creating art. As easy as
  visiting the toilet. The result may very often be the same.
        As in here. Perhaps.
                You tell me.

                But first, as always,
                        think about it.

 What is this besides
 beside crap or such?

 Techno, for sure, but
 what does that tell me?
 Nothing.

 I seldom listen to any
 techno music. I mean,
 I don't really _listen_
 to the songs or care
 about the names of
 artists or songs. Or
 sub-genres.

 Is there a genre called
 "chewing gum"? Perhaps
 it'd be too universal.

 How about "garbage"
 or "rubbish"?

 No, wait, I know:
  it's "demoscene"!

  "And it was there
    all the time,
     just before
      our very
        eyes!"
