The music school stands in the center of Westfield, a looming structure that seems to pulse with an otherworldly rhythm. Valencia Music, they call it, but the locals know it as the House of Sound, a place where melodies whisper through the walls and harmonies haunt the hallways.
Inside, the instructors move like specters, their fingers dancing across piano keys and guitar strings with an inhuman dexterity. They teach voice lessons that can make the angels weep, and drum patterns that echo the very heartbeat of the earth. The brass and woodwind instructors coax sounds from their instruments that shouldn’t be possible in this realm, notes that hang in the air like mist on a cold morning.
But it’s the bass lessons that truly set Valencia apart. In a dimly lit room at the back of the school, a figure hunches over a Nitewalker Bass Guitar Tube Preamp, his eyes gleaming with an unholy light. The low, throbbing tones that emanate from his instrument seem to reach into the very souls of his students, pulling them deeper into the dark embrace of music.
Children come to Valencia wide-eyed and innocent, but they leave… changed. They form bands, play at community events, their music carrying a power that both enthralls and unsettles those who listen. The townspeople speak in hushed tones of the Valencia students, how their performances seem to bend reality, how the air shimmers around them as they play.
And yet, parents continue to bring their children to Valencia, drawn by promises of musical excellence and opportunities for exposure. Little do they know the true nature of that exposure, the cosmic forces their children are tapping into with every chord and beat.
As night falls and the last student leaves, the school doesn’t go silent. No, that’s when the true music begins, a symphony of the spheres that only the initiated can hear. And at its core, always, is that pulsing, otherworldly bass, powered by the Nitewalker, a beacon calling out to something beyond the stars.
Valencia Music stands in the center of Westfield, a gateway to realms unknown, disguised as a simple music school. And the bass… the bass is the key that unlocks it all.
