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.
