"Drawcia Sorceress" is composed in the key of G♯ minor in a 12/8 time signature. This means each bar can be divided into four segments of three beats each. The actual song is preceded by a lengthy intro, about 48 seconds long, which plays at a slow tempo and uses solely pipe organ to establish the main melodic ideas. When this segment ends, the pipe organ repeats itself at a much faster tempo with added drum and bass, which is the main looping part of the song. | |||
