That evening, they begin recording the demo properly.
Taekyung's in full producer mode.
Headphones on. Attention completely focused on technical aspects.
Adjusting levels. Fine-tuning. Perfecting.
They record section by section.
Methodical. Professional. Thorough.
Haejin's intro lines. Six takes.
"The city's going quiet but I'm here to stay!"
Each take slightly different. Testing delivery.
Take six is perfect. They move on.
Taekyung's deadpan verse. Four takes.
"Boss is a mimic, seven feet tall..."
His flat delivery gets better each time.
Take four nails it.
Doyun's pre-chorus with call-and-response. Eight takes.
Getting the energy perfect. The timing exact.
The call-and-response feeling natural rather than forced.
Take eight is the one.
Chorus gang vocals. Twelve takes.
Layering different members. Building harmonies.
Creating that full, powerful sound.
Takes ten through twelve are all usable.
Taekyung will comp them together later.
