I am falling I stand in time high up there in the beautiful green and warm, strong tree crown, in white clouds, surrounded by the beautiful and friendly few. I fall. All the way down. I stand in time high up there; in the top of the world tree's crown. From high up there I fall from time; down into the bottomless, empty and timeless. As I fall the bark of the tree changes. Branches and twigs, leaves and nuts travel past me rapidly. The roots and the ground approaches. My time runs out and down to another place. I fall. All the way down. Into death, out from death. Into life, out from life. Down and across the sourceless river. Into darkness, out from darkness; into cold, out from cold. Through time, out from time; wherein the deities smile. I fall. All the way down. I drink from the river of forgetfulness, row dry-shoed over the sea of hatred; sail with the wind, to the end, beginning and meaning of the powers. As you can see, I used Tracktion when I made this album (and Belus). This is the structure for the 'Jeg Faller' track. I recorded each riff, and then simply copied, cut and pasted until I was happy with the structure. My 'quality check' consists of listening to the track on repeat for some hours, and if I grow tired of it, it's no good... I only used Tracktion for the 'Belus' and 'Fallen' rehearsals. The album itself was recorded in Grieghallen in Bergen (Norway).
