Here's the demo version of the 3rd episode of our "Karismatic" Journey
The bass line that molded its way into our souls on a sunny May afternoon carries Karisma Ape all the way through. The half-spoken vocals reverberate upfront narrating the story of a charismatic figure obsessed with power. But dominance only plays a role in the material world, eventually dissolving as the spirit takes over. So, the guitars gradually come in, building up a layer of echoes that continue well beyond the lyrics, these are coupled by the organ and synth that guide the tune into an ethereal aura.
