about

"Sykosis" is a concept soundtrack album. It is not for any film in particular, rather, it is a musical exploration into the various mental states of Psychosis. The composition tells a complete narrative about an individual who begins to suffer the onset of Psychosis and helplessly falls victim to it. The story ends with the realization that something much darker is occurring.

After researching the various forms of Psychosis and the symptoms experienced, the music tries to emulate what it might be like to be in the moment of that individual. The music is representing a first person perspective. It is highly percussive in moments of panic, urgency and unrest while more dark and ominous drone layers fluctuate to speak to the "much darker force at work" aspect. There is a lot of experimentation with dissonance in a manner that crates the sense of dread and uncertainty as to what is real and what is not. To round it out, there are "shock" moments in which there is a synth sound used to tear through the music to represent the moments when the "darker force" is trying to break through and come face to face with the individual.

The sound palette was established first using between five and eight instruments. Two sections are different percussion sections and the rest are leads and pads. All were modified from their original settings. The leads and pads specifically were changed up in a way that seemingly two separate instruments were born based on whether I played in the lower octaves versus the higher octaves.

Sit back, turn down the lights and get set for a nerve-wracking and pulse-pounding musical journey. Please comment and share.
