Episode #132 - Prelude

This week's episode is devoted to a deep dive into the track "Prelude," the introductory piece to the forthcoming Night Demon album Outsider. Not only does it set the tone for the album, but it also introduces the title track and lead single. The guys explain how "Prelude" began with a bass riff that Jarvis wrote back in early 2020.  They then walk you through the layer-by-layer build of the track, including utilization of a Roland Jupiter 8 synthesizer, a piano, guitar parts, and ultimately drum parts performed by all three members in unison.  You'll hear how every piece of "Prelude" came together, with an Easter egg linking this song to a very obscure sound effect in a particular horror movie soundtrack. The band teases how this intro might be performed live in the months and years to come. They also describe how they view this song as a natural progression from the intro to "Welcome to the Night" on the Darkness Remains album.Become a subscriber today at nightdemon.net/subscriber.
