about

This song directly originates from one of the sounds in “Skytrain” when I held the key for a solid minute or so and the base drone was formed. I had dabbled in drones earlier on the album, but this was the only true drone track from front to back. As the final addition to the album in 2017, I knew exactly what I wanted for this track and the drone approach was formed with spiritual intent right from the get go.

The aggression of the core drone sound is meant to juxtapose with the hypnotic nature of its immersion, which is further augmented by the accompanying sculpted layers of chimes, cellos, and atmosphere. It’s abrasive, but you can’t let go once you dive in. This represents the dynamic struggle and comfort while seeking God’s grace. Once this is reached, the silence that follows as the album ends represents the emptiness felt without God.

SG Vision San Diego, California

Hi everyone, I am Shane! Shane Gundelfinger to be precise.

SG Vision represents my spiritually focused attempt to channel the sounds from my head, which draw influences from the atmosphere and beatwork of IDM, the immersive layers of post-rock, and the complexities and dynamics of progressive metal.

All of my music is dedicated to praising God through the creative potential of music.
