Tears ~Bound to the Mortal World~

"Tears: Bound to the Mortal World" is a cinematic, classical instrumental piece built entirely around synthesizers, inspired by the theme of tears shed within the dungeon of this earthly life.

Taking inspiration from biblical narratives—such as Joseph's endurance in prison and Job's loss of his children—this track explores the weight of unfair suffering and the inevitable sorrow of existing in a mortal world.

Originally composed on piano, the soundscapes were meticulously crafted using vintage analog synthesizers, centered around the iconic Univox Maxi-Korg (Korg 800DV). The raw, expressive warmth and heavy tones of the dual-voice synthesizer bring a deeply emotional, nostalgic, and majestic atmosphere reminiscent of classic cinematic synth soundtracks.

Composed, performed, and produced by Joshua Okazaki.
