The Transmutation | Lyric Video

Follow @ktizzleschneider for the next KTizzle drop. Sampler:    • The Transmutation | Throw your worst at it...   Lead in. Gold out. 140 BPM electro house with wonky dubstep drops: a full-voice belt and a low gritty rap, a crowd that answers every call, the four stages of the Great Work chanted over a half-time loop, and a drumless "Solve et coagula". Feed it the lead and it comes out gold. (Old alchemists spent whole lifetimes on this. You did it before lunch.) Chapters 0:00 Intro (Hey! Lead in! Gold out!) 0:30 Verse 1 (Bad news at the door?) 0:44 Pre-Chorus + Chorus (Indestructible) 1:21 Drop (JUG-GER-NAUT!) 1:36 Loop (Nigredo, Albedo, Citrinitas, Rubedo) 1:47 Breakdown (Solve et coagula) 2:02 Final Drop 2:50 Outro (Gold.) Lyrics [Intro: 4 bars, four-on-the-floor kick and claps from bar 1, FM keys] (Hey!) (Lead in!) (Gold out!) [Verse 1] [Low gritty male rap, short punchy staccato lines, light slapback] Bad news at the door? Let it in, pull a chair, Feed it to the furnace, now it's heat in the air. Rock in the river? River goes around, Didn't stop, didn't argue, just carved out the ground. Low vibe in, high vibe out, modulator, Grumbling in the input, bassline on the fader. [Female vocal, playful] Bent a little? Sure, every road's got a fold, Cracks don't break it, they get filled with gold. [Pre-Chorus] [Female lead, rising, snare roll, filter opening, one new layer] Stubborn's a wall, and a wall don't grow, Faith is a river, it knows where to go. They said "quit"... and the answer was... [Spoken, female, flat, sweet and stubborn] No. [Chorus: four-on-the-floor, bright supersaw, filter fully open, crowd chants answer] [Full-voice female belt] Indestructible (in-de-struc-ti-ble!) Feed it the lead and it comes out gold. No reverse gear, no white flag, Every hit's a snack in the alchemist's bag. Juggernaut rolling (can't stop it!) Eat it up, turn it gold. [Drop: half-time 70 BPM feel, kick on beat 1 and snare on 3 only, squelchy wonky bass, brassy bass stabs carry the hook, maximum sub] (JUG-GER-NAUT!) Throw your worst at it... it's on the menu! (JUG-GER-NAUT!) [Loop: half-time loop, layers stack one at a time, FM keys, one new layer per chant] [Low male staccato chant] Ni-gre-do (black... it burns) Al-be-do (white... it clears) Ci-tri-ni-tas (gold... it wakes) Ru-be-do (red... it's done) [Spoken, male, wry, light slapback] Old alchemists spent whole lifetimes on this. You did it before lunch. [Breakdown: kick stops completely, bass stops, FM keys and pads only, 8 bars] [Female, soft, close] Solve et coagula... Break it down... build it back... gold. [Final Drop: four-on-the-floor slam into half-time wobble, all layers, brassy bass stabs, biggest crowd chant, maximum sub] [Full-voice female belt, crowd answering] Indestructible (in-de-struc-ti-ble!) Feed it the lead and it comes out gold! (JUG-GER-NAUT!) [Spoken, female, flat, sweet] Give up? ...No. [Outro: layers peel away one at a time, FM keys alone] (Gold.)
