This track always irritates me when I listen to it, but not because of anything specific to the song. My plan was to have all connected areas be in related key signatures, and this area, intended to be a 'hub' for everywhere else, received a matching theme-the intro rumbles outline a full diminished 7th chord, which can resolve into 4 different keys all on its own. (This is also reflected in the song's original name, "Wheel and Spokes.") However, the game's layout was later changed so that everything fed through the first area instead, a theme that had no full diminished 7th chords. As such, listening to Stoneface just tends to remind me of how frustrating it was to work on the soundtrack...
Intricately constructed house music conjures up dystopian soundscapes with sonics both natural and alien. And it bangs, too. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 21, 2020
