It’s Already Begun This song was written as a reflection of Kinda Always Sleepy and came from experimenting with the Epitome effects while recording the first track. I intentionally kept the riff simple so that I could explore the music via production. I played the delay in order to experiment with the space in the riff and the rhythms that began as the reflections and echoes met each other. I wanted the drums to be less intrusive to the song so I manually filtered it to reveal the rhythm where I wanted within the song and in reflection to the guitars’ delay. As happy as I was with the original take I felt like the repetition gave space for a lead instrument or vocals. I chose theremin as the lead instrument and used it as a vocalist to express ranges that the delay and drums were not occupying. I used two theremin voices as a call and response to each other and gave them space to wander.
