Gene Drift from Vivarium Threads by Cellure
This track navigates relentless, unguided change. Urgent snare rolls and a throbbing bassline establish a relentless tempo, anchoring its indie hip-hop pulse. Split and Morphos trade verses, their voices tightening as the track progresses, mirroring the lyrical exploration of genetic drift. It's a deep dive into random outcomes, the unintended mutations in any system—be it a cell or a relationship. The Genome Pad samples, chopped and spun, create almost painful sonic shifts in the breakdown, pushing the genre's boundaries. It feels like riding a chaotic current, exhilarating but a bit terrifying. The tension builds until the music itself feels redesigned, echoing the very concept it unpacks. It’s an uneasy listen, exactly as intended.

Lyrics
Vivarium buzz, Sequence flickers wild
Signals leap—futures get restyled
Change whispers sideways—see, none of it filed
Split: Gene drift shuffles everything we know
Silent slip—old codes won’t show
Culture loops snap, directions let go
Chance scribbles patterns where purpose won’t grow
I watch my kin—traits scatter low
Morphos glance, tracing what we throw
Morphos: Selection missed—random wants the stage
Sequence recording, but meaning won’t engage
Genome scatter, wild in the cage
Sudden colors bleed out, none to wage
Petri rules twist, shifting every gauge
Born unanchored—let mutation gauge
Turn the sequence—fortune won’t rewind
Shifting out, difference left behind
Gene drift—(gene drift)—we’re redesign(ed)
Reroll the story, silence can’t remind
Random chance, so close we freeze
Choice diluted, new identities seize
Lost in shuffle—our roots release
<Instrumental breakdown>
Turn the sequence—fortune won’t rewind
Shifting out, difference left behind
Gene drift—(gene drift)—we’re redesign(ed)
Reroll the story, silence can’t remind
No order promised—let gene drift decide
