06 · Two Parts to Kyiv (The Pogosts)

A gusli plucked in a steady counting rhythm, sledge runners on snow, wooden abacus beads clicking, a low women's choir, then a hard switch into groovy deep house: steady warm bassline, crisp percussion, organ-style chords, dry female lead vocal, first person, 124 BPM

07 · Daughter of the Emperor (Helena)

Byzantine chant in a vast stone dome, deep bells, a court organ drone, incense-slow, then a hard switch into warm melodic deep house: rich pads, deep bass, gospel-tinged female choir stabs, dry female lead vocal, first person, 123 BPM

08 · Call Me Daughter (The Proposal)

A Byzantine court lute and a soft women's chant in a marble hall, a fountain, a slow ceremonial drum, then a hard switch into bouncy dark tech house: rubbery bassline, sly syncopated stabs, dry female lead vocal with a smirk, first person, 126 BPM

09 · They Will Laugh (My Son)

Pagan war drums, a men's Slavic battle chant, horses stamping, a bronze horn, iron on a shield, then a hard switch into hard dark tech house: tense, driving, distorted kick, acid-tinged bass, dry female lead vocal, first person, 130 BPM

10 · No Feast for Me (The Day-Spring)

A women's choir in slow Orthodox chant, church bells at dawn over a wide river, a single held organ note, then a hard switch into euphoric melodic house: warm piano chords, soaring pads, deep rolling bass, dry female lead vocal lifted by a choir, first person, 124 BPM
