Belgium-based artist, Maxime Solemn, answers the question "what would happen if you took metalcore, tuned it down, added an orchestra, shocked it with electricity, and then put it in an anime, cyberpunk future dystopia?" Because, honestly, that question has been keeping me awake at night.
Recorded using only midi instruments that Solemn created himself, this futuristic track combines genre elements from across the world. He says, "The anime Psycho Pass is one of my favorites so it definitely inspired the whole dystopian vibe. The sibyl system in said anime is basically what gave me the idea to add the Japanese female robotic voice."
"I like my music to be larger than life," he continues. "I pump it full of explosions, risers and such production elements. I essentially want everything to sound like an industrial complex that's on fire while guitars are blasting simultaneously."
