EXOGENESIS: SYMPHONY

From The Resistance…

Exogenesis: Symphony “Almost purely classical in style.” Performed by an orchestra of 25.

Part I (Overture) Part I is, “a jaded acceptance that

civilization will end.” 0:00-1:35

Orchestral, classical sounding. 1:42

Vocals begin. 2:54

Guitar enters, giving it that Muse vibe.

Part II (Cross-Pollination) Part II is, “a desperate hope that sending astronauts

to find and populate other planets will be successful alongside recognition that this is the last hope.”

0:00-0:56 Piano and strings, very waltz-like.

1:04 Vocals enter.

1:57 Guitar.

2:48 Song reverts back to piano and strings, a resolution in

song.

Part III (Redemption) Part III is, “when astronauts realize that it is just

one big cycle and recognize unless humanity can change it will happen all over again.”

0:00Piano continues from Part II.

0:11A second piano voice enters, along with strings.

1:53A new melody takes shape.
