Inevitable by Intratemplum

My name is Linzy. My musical programming project Intratemplum has finished after almost a year of work, beginning in the summer of 2014, though the ideas behind "Bread and Bitter" date back to 2011, when I first made music under the name LN4. Introspectively I craft my music through deliberate programming from the foundation of a piano on which I realize the fruits of my passionate imagination by composing. Each of my instrumental pieces musically expresses a major part of my life that I have something to say about, which ends up being the underlying inspiration behind the songs. Gouts of Flame, for example, encompasses pain tolerance.

From the second piece of my high school ceramic series of sculptures hails the name for my project. The flowing, morphing, two-sided head that splits and reconvenes was named Intratemplum, meaning 'within the temple' (interpret as you will).

I would like to say that I have learned much in the creation of this album. Creating my own compositions brings me immense self-enforcing satisfaction. I dedicate the album to my friend Noah Rhoads. I would not have explored my editing tools or made near as good of an album if not for my late friend Noah, whose project The Phallus is featured with guitar in "Mandatory". His advice from his mixing and recording experience got me to realize the potential of sound editing to make for a much better expression in my album. The last and longest song on this album is inspired by him, and what awaits us all enigmatically after death. I would also like to thank Eric for his part on 'Vindica". Finally, a shoutout to my favorite nerd movie, the Matrix Reloaded, from which I sampled my one sample, "It is inevitable", as the centerpiece of my title track. Somehow the gravity of Hugo Weaving's speech about inevitability evokes a sense of transfixed, impending presence of the moment... the kind that drives me.
I hope you enjoy this as much as its development has been important and personally significant to me.
