How quickly one goes from an all-empowering hope to utter despair.
Short though sweet, this track was inspired by the etheral tones of Nintendo's Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, as originally composed by Kenji Yamamoto. (You will note a borrowed track from the Dark Argon Wastes subtely layered in the background intro). All other tones and instruments are stock GarageBand loops.

I so adore Nintendo. As far as I'm concerned, they're the only platform that truly understands "fantasy". Not that the others can't or don't produce great stuff, but Nintendo will always be my favorite console. They tend to understand better, or perhaps just approach differently, the idea of gaming.
Thanks for the kind words! You have to check out SponiWolf's remix! It's great!

I LOVE the Metroid series. It's one of the many titles that, in my opinion makes Nintendo the better company. But despite this, "To Believe In False Gods" isn't really about any game, or the gaming experience. It's a mood piece that mixes hopeful albeit paranoid emotions with societal grit and angst. This represents the hope a hero might feel on a quest, or the sentimentality (hope) he may place on false beliefs (like a religious belief, a totem, or special item), and then the devastating loss he comes to experience as the price.
That's a lot to say about such a short track, but that was my point.
SponiWolf (linked above) remixed an absolutely beautiful extension of this melody, which in many ways, is an improvement on mine. Huge kudos to Sponi!
Thanks so much for the comment!
