NOTES:

• The beginning of the piece was the first thing that was made. I sent sheddythis beginning idea with the triplet arp and the DM 1 melody, and he designed the gross beat glitch thing afterward. The section was supposed to symbolize the first encounter with DM, before the battle begins.
• The big, bad sound effect at 0:55 is the sound effect from the game where Dark Matter cries. Get ready, it's coming!
• The riff in the DnB drop is the theme from "A Warning to All Pokemon", so being a warning, we used a tornado siren sound to really sell the alarm. The fight with Dark Matter gets under way!
• At 2:01, I got a bit inspired by songs like "Night of Nights" and made a crash build.
• In the breakdown, I pulled out full experimental mode. This was the most sfx heavy part of the piece, and every sound effect heard in those 8 measures are different. It represents the rebirth of Dark Matter and the near complete loss of hope.
• The drums at 2:31 were made by taking a crazy 140 BPM drum loop and chopping it up in Slicex. The result sounded really nice and dark, especially with the F#aug chord behind it!
• Ending the section at 2:48 is a sound created by chopping up Dark Matter's own voice sound effect in the game!
• This first piano section was one of the last things made in the song, so I had to figure out how to write something that would loop an extremely dark drum break to a more upbeat melodic drop. And I did that with some firey ambience and a nice distant chime.
• BASS! CRASH! BAM-BAAAAAAAAAM!!
• The melodic drop at 3:33 was the first part sheddywrote. To be honest, sheddywrote most of the piece - my additions were mostly adding some riffs, references, and darkness. For example, I added all the SFX breaks in this drop. This part represents the second battle, with the Tree of Life revived!
• The transitional section at 4:14 reuses the synth from the dark breakdown extremely nicely. I love how this part turned out!
• The drop at 4:30 is where sheddy first decided to add electric guitars to the piece. He first wrote this section and then went back and added the power to the DM 1 DnB part afterward.
• The drums in the final bridge at 5:22 were made by chopping up a drum loop and putting it in Slicex. This one was a bit more creative, though, as the riff itself I wrote.
• The piano thing at the end was written by me and jazzed up by sheddy. He did a good job!
