This is one of the earliest songs I wrote, an untitled composition dating back to 1991, before I even had the ability to sequence or record anything. I had to score it on staff paper to preserve it. It was not until 2001 where I rediscovered it and wanted to turn it into something. I was into VNV Nation <\/strong>and IDM at the time, so it was done in that style. The original composition had a basic melody which I was ultimately unhappy with, thus it was not included for the 2001 track and my view of the song was that it was remained consistently unfinished.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A few years later, a band I was associated with called Ob3lisk<\/strong> was writing songs and I was assisting in the studio. I suggested they write lyrics for this and use it on the album. So it took on the title Out Of Time<\/strong> and the structure of this iteration of the song remained basically the same but with a proper melody line this time. I later remixed the album version, which was completely re-produced in the style of the band, into a version which more closely resembled the 2001 production I originally did. The lyrical content of this version was split into both male and female vocals making it a kind of duet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While compiling the Candor<\/strong> album in 2022, I decided to redo this track, as I felt it was one of my strongest compositions. I used the original lyrics from the Ob3lisk version but rewrote some of them slightly to make the subject matter a little more acute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lyrically, this song is open to interpretation, but you can assume that the underlying theme is one of reaching a state of stoicism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
