XVA’s remix of “LOST” by CRIM3S adds an intro that samples the chorus to Vince Staples’ “Fire” and includes a lower-pitched outro. The remix gained popularity mainly due to its inclusion in the Geometry Dash level “Slaughterhouse” created by icedcave.
The “Slaughterhouse” level premiered on YouTube on May 1, 2022, initially being classified as an impossible level. However, it quickly became a verification race, eventually being verified by a player named spaceuk on October 25. The level was rated the hardest demon-rated level in the game by Pointercrate. Despite attempts from other levels like “Sakupen Circles” and “Abyss of Darkness” to dethrone it, “Slaughterhouse” regained its number one spot on July 27, 2022.
Personally, this remix holds a special meaning to me. The haunting melody and distorted vocals create an atmosphere of darkness and introspection. The lyrics talk about feeling lost and unheard, painting a picture of loneliness and desperation.
When I first heard this remix, it resonated with me on a deep level. The lines “Few will stop to hear/Cured notion/You fall/With tears to the sound of no one” spoke to my own experiences of being overlooked and misunderstood. It reminded me of times when I felt unheard and invisible, struggling to find my place in a noisy world.
Music has a way of connecting with our emotions in a profound way, and this remix is no exception. Despite its dark and melancholic sound, it offers a sense of solace and understanding to those who may be going through similar emotions.
As the remix progresses, the added intro with the sampling of Vince Staples’ “Fire” adds a layer of intensity and frustration. It amplifies the emotions conveyed in the lyrics and serves as a powerful bridge between the two songs.
The outro, with its lower-pitched sound, provides a sense of closure. It leaves the listeners with a reflective moment to process the emotions stirred up throughout the song. It’s as if the song takes you on a journey through darkness and despair, only to end with a glimmer of hope.
Overall, “LOST (XVA Remix)” by CRIM3S is a gripping and emotionally charged track. It captures the feelings of isolation and longing, while also offering a cathartic release. The addition of Vince Staples’ “Fire” in the intro and the unique outro elevate the remix to another level.
Whether you discover this remix through the “Slaughterhouse” level or stumble upon it on your own, I hope it resonates with you in the same way it did for me. Sometimes, we find solace in music that reflects our innermost struggles, reminding us that we are not alone.
