B-minor ballad at 92 BPM, starting at full intensity: intimate close-miked classical guitar with simplified smooth bursts, natural room acoustics, and 1.2× pitch acceleration. Gothic rock layers jangle-guitar arpeggios, octave bass lines, cathedral-organ drones, and a rigid drum-machine pulse. Tape-echo guitar, spring reverb, closed-cage ambience, analog saturation, and Victorian melancholy.
