Fusion (stbfusio.xm)

I am the composer of this piece.

Almost 20 years has passed, and I have to admit, nearly all of the samples were ripped without any thought of copyright. But that was the practice back then.

About the piece, I was hoping to create a musical piece fusing my love for metal and a touch of techno at the time.
Shit like this became very popular as you all know.

About the technical tracking stuff, the never-ending background sample wasn't supposed to be that intrusive, I did not hear it as loud as it is here with my -90s puter. Some of you may notice even the musical creativity is nearly non-existant, but sounds OK, right?

Anyhow, it is absolutely wonderful to see mine, and anybody elses creations like this still survive on the internet, even though the authors will face palm all day. I know I do to some other material I've done, but not this one.

It's a well-made fusion of metal and trance. Kind of dark.

I've read something like this before... "Not really my style of music but sounds ok to me..." ...and that MOD was a very nice one, just as this one is. It has a very nice metal-like sound. At one point it softens and slows a bit, but it doesn't take away from the feel of the song. It begins by fading in the techno samples and bringing in the lead before putting the guitar and bass behind the lead. It doesn't do this too quickly, but not too slowly either. It has a very nice feel throughout, and although the end is a bit abrupt, it still fits in with the feel of the song. Not too many complaints on the technical side. It's put together very well. The samples are good quality, and well used as well. One of the sample loops seems a bit overused, but it's pretty easy to ignore with all the other stuff going on in the song.
