I based this tune on the Santa Clara Vanguard cadence called "Electric Wheelchair." When I was younger, this cadence was the highest level of drumline performance available and many drumlines attempted the intro, which is iconic.
The version used is the 1992 version, which is the oldest one I could find the music for. There is complicated rhythmic interplay amongst the instruments and sometimes the form seems erratic. It is not a "crowd pleasing" cadence, unless your crowd is full of drummers.
The title "Cosmic Descent," which is also the name of the album, was AI generated. I was looking for a two word title where each word begins with C and D respectively. I did this because my first album was called "Adventures Beyond" and I thought I would continue the pattern. The pattern was also continued with naming the 11th song the same as the album. There are also other implications of "Cosmic Descent" but I leave that to the listener to interpret.
Here is a link to the youtube channel followed by the Bandcamp link.
