This started with the last track, an experiment to try and incorporate piano into a dub step project. By chance, it was exactly 13 minutes long when I mixed it down. I was already wanting to do a dark and spooky record, so it seemed like a sign...

Notes: On a side note, I've always wondered or fantasized what it would actually sound like if the devil made an electronic record. He's often referred to in the bible as the ultimate or master musician, so his music would be elaborate and well produced. The craftsmanship would be unbelievable! But remember, the devil is also evil, so the music would have an undeniable dark tone to it. As I was recording this, I started to make it somewhat an attempt to hear that concept. The devil makes an electronic record and here it is...
Then, obviously, the devil would probably incorporate elements of heavy metal into an electronic album - it's something he definitely has a fondness for. A dark intro and warning. A haunting piano melody with dub. What about distortion? Definitely. Feedback? Necessary. Extreme poly rhythms and constantly changing bass sounds? well, that part is pure speculation on my part, but I'd say the devil would be proud. The bizarre and ghostly fact that the first three songs are exactly 6 minutes long and the last track is exactly 13 minutes long? Coincidence, I swear!
And if you are wondering who Xymos is, well you're in for a surprise. Sit back and let your mind and soul be reprogrammed by a new master...
