Bastard son of a worthless child Spit on me you're all defiled Break my skin against your breath This routine has been done to death Wait until your forehead splits Take your fancy down the ritz You can't reverse all this undoing You cannot keep the spheres from moving Dance to dance Back to back Wireless, hellish, keeping track I've had enough of all this spite I'll take it all and gelagnite And blow you all to kingdom come and then you'd think it'd be undone But instead this worthless son continues Pull these splinters from your sinews

about

This is the soundtrack for the HD build of the Quake Arcane Dimensions mod:
www.moddb.com/mods/quake-epsilon-build

The album is the result of more than 2 years of work and encompasses material made across my lifetime.
I escaped every weekend into the recording studio for 2018 and 2019, dedicating my spare time to coming up with new material. Toward the middle of 2019 I realised many of these tracks would never work as standalone songs, but would suit soundtrack work. In addition to the newer material, I harvested old tracks which had never had an instrumental version made of them, and even older tracks which'd never seen the light of day, and reworked them for the soundtrack.

The Arcane Dimensions Quake mod is unlike any other Quake mod ever made. It consists of about 22 levels, or 'dimensions', each with it's own unique flavour and "feel". As such it demanded intense variety in the soundtrack - ranging from industrial rock, to metal, to electronic, to gothic acoustic music, to upbeat acoustic progressive tracks. All of this came together to form the soundtrack, a work spanning 3 hours in total.

In case you're wondering, the first title of each track is the name of the soundtrack mix it was grouped within. Those full soundtrack mixes are also included in the download, as bonus tracks - these match the ones included in the game, albiet at a much higher quality.

There is also a standalone film for 'The Algorithm that generated a star' and 'Legacy of the Clenched Fist', here:

FEZ OST
by Disasterpeace

This is the only chiptune album I like. And it's because its not reallyt a chiptune album. It's a much more progressive soundtrack album, using the timbre and textures of chiptunes to express itself. xolve

Hidden Tracks
by Fieldtriqp

BoC-ish but more hidden, more subterranean, more solace. If Boards of Canada's "Tomorrow's Harvest" hadn't come out the same year, this would've been my favourite album of 2013, hands down. xolve

The Impossible Kid
by Aesop Rock

A lyrical meditation on aging, fame and lost opportunities, The Impossible Kid is at once Aesop Rock's most accessible and heartfelt rap album. It's amazing how something so deep can be so very clever xolve
