13 — Thing
Thing is a strange piece. It has no origin that could be found, and doesn't really have much musical quality to it. It was originally uploaded to SoundCloud before making its way to YouTube. Perhaps it was just a technical experiment gone astray, or it just had vision too complex to be understood in the current day.
14 — Nothing From Nothing
One of the first songs ever written with dedicated lyrics. Published originally on December 22, 2022, it takes great stylistic inspiration from post-punk music and features spooky organs and chromatic lines.
16 — The Wanderer
17 — The Vitalizer
18 — She
19 — I Was Here
I Was Here is a song released March 22, 2023. It is inspired by post-punk music, but with more Trig Jegman elements like driving piano, excessive reverb, and glittery bells all over the place. French horn swells fill the rest of the piece. The lyrical inspiration was taken from a poem lamenting on graffiti that simply states "I was here". The entire piece was written, recorded, mixed, and put out in the same day, arriving in an unspeakable burst of inspiration.
