Ashes to Ashes
The dark swing electronic-industrial clubmix launches with dense synth textures and pulsing basslines. Mechanical drums drive a chilling female Vocaloid. Throughout the verses, violin and fiddle layer eerie harmonics; banjo plucks punctuate the build, delivering an unsettling, melancholic edge.

Lyrics
Intro: low hum, slow pulse, eerie female breath
Smoke drifts over the boards of the floor,
A whisper carried through splintered doors.
The lanterns die, but the air still moves—
A voice begins, too soft to prove.
Verse 1: steady rhythm, dark cadence
Kneel in the soil where the roots still crawl,
Hear the wind inside these rotted walls.
They said the words to lay her down,
Now every sound’s a hollow vow.
Pre-Chorus: gathering rhythm, layered harmonies
Hands to the ground, the rhythm grows,
A pulse beneath where no one knows.
The breath she takes is cold and thin,
Like earth pulled tight against the skin.
Chorus: strong, deliberate tempo; vocal power rising
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust,
No god, no mercy left to trust.
We dance in circles, slow and red,
To wake the dark and feed the dead.
Verse 2: faster tempo, sharper syllables, driving beat
Footsteps mark the time like drums,
Mouths still move though no sound comes.
Her eyes are coal, her voice is flame,
Each note cuts deep, each word the same.
Pre-Chorus: tension tightens, background chant builds
The ground responds, it starts to shake,
Every echo, every ache.
She calls them home beneath her breath,
A song of ruin, a hymn of death.
Chorus: layered female vocals, distortion creeping in
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust,
No god, no mercy left to trust.
We dance in circles, slow and red,
To wake the dark and feed the dead.
Bridge: distortion, glitch textures, vocal intensity peaks
The soil splits beneath her knees,
Light flickers, chokes, then flees.
Her voice becomes a thousand tones,
A ritual carved into bone.
Verse 3: slower, heavy, haunted clarity
Now silence hums through shattered beams,
Every word she spoke still screams.
The room is hollow, air is thick,
The earth remembers every trick.
Final Chorus: hauntingly slow, layered in echoes
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust,
The pulse returns, as all things must.
No heaven waits, no soul ascends—
The dust remains, and never ends.
Outro: whispered recitation over static decay
The hum grows faint, the circle fades.
A breath, a pause—then none remains.
The lights are gone, the sound persists,
A rhythm that the dark still twists.
