"Kill the intruder."


This song was performed by me with Ableton Live 9 in 2015. It was completely improvised and unedited. You are free to download and use however you like :-)

Nice) Really nice)

Bertn1991 responds:

Thank you, as always :)

So, throughout my teenage years, there were television moments where one could tell the network was just trying to fill in an hour or so of programming with something cheap. That cheap something was, more often than not, visibly dated and not particularly entertaining in any way. Usually, it was just nature being natural, like with dragonflies darting about or close-ups of rabbits, frogs, foxes, and other critters that would eventually learn to pilot ships and fight primates... I think, but there would also be footage of kids, cars, and everyday happenings from the late 70s or early 80s (basing that on their clothes and styles). I wasn't sure why something like that was airing, because there was no narration to explain any of it, but it always came with this odd, unsettling, and low-quality music that Apathy (2015) does an eerily good job of mimicking. I don't know if you wish to consider that a compliment. It seems like my memory only works in my favor when I can associate my past to music in some way.

It's kinda neat that you could help me to recall something so minor in my unproductive childhood, though I would be lying if I typed that I felt the same level of enjoyment for this as I normally feel for your compositions.

Thank you, Bertn.

Bertn1991 responds:

I really enjoyed reading this. You painted an interesting picture here. I know this isn't the best song ever, but I'm glad this song could bring back those memories. I had no idea TV channels did this. It does sound rather eerie.

But anyway, thanks so much for listen, as always, and for writing such an interesting review :)
