One listen. Probably the last song used in G-Darius that I’ll cover for a while… unless I remember another track that I want to cover. Which I’ve just realised that there’s at least one and that will likely be tomorrow.

Anyway, this took a bit of time to click. I was getting through what was happening, but once I noticed the space, I feel this started improving. If not, at least changing.

Zuntata’s “Future Perfect From 7” is from G-Darius‘ soundtrack, G-Darius Original Arcade Score.

I hope you enjoy.

Gently intense percussive sound whilst a voice floats on above. Something more bassy between, and it pushes something hard, heavy, maybe menacing. More sound comes in, strikes in cut moments and rises, and the mood seems to lift with it.

The sound goes to the base again, and rises higher but does not seem to have at all. Then keys come in and descend, and maintain the intensity, but carry some gentleness. They are responded to by brief strings, lower again, and then those strikes are lower and more recognisable, or at least seem to be akin to voices.

It’s conclusive and it returns to the start and never lets up. Everything flows through, and it’s all with some sort of space that doesn’t seem to be there at all. There’s relief but there’s tension and stress, and maybe some sort of satisfaction. Maybe something bittersweet in there as the sounds fade out and the song ends.
