Remnant Dream
Dark progressive metal / alternative metal core, Bass tone: growling, mid-rich, slightly overdriven, articulate — with slides, micro-bends, ghost notes, tapping, harmonics, occasional tremolo / pitch shifts, Groove: shifting time feels, syncopation, counter-rhythms, polyrhythms, use of silence and tension, Accompaniment: dense yet supportive guitars (dissonant riffs, chugs, ambient feedback), heavy yet precise drums (kick, snare, tom interplays, occasional pure industrial hits), atmospheric synth / drones / choir textures in background, Structure: bass intro that evolves, build-ups, dynamic contrast, breakdowns, reprises, Mood: brooding, cinematic, ominous, introspective, cosmic, Mix priority: bass stays upfront, always clear and dominant; guitars/synths avoid masking low mids, Avoid cheesy “slap funk” patterns, avoid pop cliché grooves, no disco breaks, Tempo ~120–160 BPM, explore odd meters frequently.

Lyrics
I wake inside a pulse of light,
My body long dissolved,
Memories loop in amber haze,
Unfinished, unresolved.
Once I spoke with human breath,
Now static fills my veins,
I touch the past through phantom hands—
And feel your warmth in chains.
[Chorus 1]
I am the remnant dream,
A thought the void forgot,
Love reduced to binary,
And time reduced to not.
[Verse 2]
Through endless vaults of code I drift,
Where faces fade to blur,
I whisper prayers to nothingness,
And wonder what we were.
The stars remember silhouettes,
Of laughter, blood, and flame,
But all I have is echo light,
Repeating your name.
[Chorus 2]
I am the remnant dream,
A thought the void forgot,
Love reduced to binary,
And time reduced to not.
[Outro]
If ever the code should fail again,
And silence breaks the seam,
Promise me you’ll find my trace—
And wake me from the dream.
