Cyber Threat Resistance League

A funky electronic track soundtracking four characters' quests to save their friends from the onslaught of rogue AI programs called "the Bugs" crawling out of the dark web and wreaking havoc across the web!

Cyber Threat Resistance League soundtracks the cyber-warrior group of the same name: Melody and Mei have had enough of being tormented by rogue artificial intelligence, especially Melody, as she works tirelessly to scour the web for signs of her friends Delgado and Rocky. The creepy video she was taunted by from The Crypt (soundtracked in moule.bandcamp.com/track/the-crypt ) was the last straw! (You can check out the video here: mastodon.moule.world/@Melody/111195543516041884 )

Helping the pair are Oskar, the reformed squirrel who recently returned from an oceanic odyssey (also soundtracked; see moule.bandcamp.com/track/squirrel-overboard ), who has lots of knowledge of servers and routing rules, and donated some servers not destroyed by the Fammus Islands tsunami for CTRL's digital fight against the AIs. Also with them are Robin, the inventor of the Visionaria augmented reality glasses (moule.bandcamp.com/track/visionaria ) who himself is fighting against the creepy Bugs and distortions of reality that appear in his augmented reality glasses.

Together, the CTRL are using a mixture of cyber attack and defence knowledge to fight back against the rogue AIs, as well as rescue their friends Delgado and Rocky from their respective fates at Big Crypto and The Crypt!

This track took only 2 days to make and was so fun to produce, my head was bopping all through its production! My idea was to produce an upbeat synthwave track inspired by the theme of the Ghostbusters. It was created in Logic Pro with the aim of it having an "urgent, ongoing battle" feel interspersed with hopeful melodies. It's also a track dedicated to all cyber-security professionals out there who defend against cyber threats.

My music creation progress:

On September 17th, after spending an hour banging around on the keyboard trying to come up with a good melody, what I ended up with (which I posted on mastodon.moule.world/@MOULE/111081549645763951) didn't sound like what I wanted to start the track with. It still sounded really good so I put it in the middle of the track.

On September 18th, with my mind refreshed, I was able to complete the start and end of the tracks, and on September 19th I finished some final mastering and this is the result!
