    Pitch-Black
  ________________8bit Hi-Quality_____

  Phew! ...  A few months of silence after "Secret Hours" was just the
  thing I seemed to need, cause now with this one it felt like I was
  riding on a totally new wave of creativity. I can`t point the exact
  time used on this song, but it got started around May/June, and
  I think some of the inspire came from Paradise Lost`s song called
  "So much is lost" from the album "Host". I saw the musicvideo
  pretty much at the time when "Pitch-Black" got it`s first
  beats written..

  .. later on it came pretty ovious that this would
     be my Assembly`99 multichannel compo entry.

  This is the 8bit Hi-Quality version with full amount of active  
  channels. There is also a Assembly`99 version which I do NOT
  recommend (as it is poor quality cause of the channel and
  size limits the competition had).

 This song reminds me of
 "Guinea Pig" in many
 ways, an older song of
 mine which was inspired
 by a sad true story of
 one animal`s abuse.
 It feels almost as if
 it`s my rightful duty
 to dedicate this song
 to the memory of those
 poor animals that have
 been injured, maimed
 or killed by the vicious
 acts of human cruelty,
 discaring, selfishness
 and sadism.

 Let me quate Moby:
 (from the album "Play")

"Animals are sentient
 creatures with their
 own wills and it is
 wrong to force our will
 onto another creature
 just because we are
 able to."
