Description : This was on my tracklist for a period of time, but I obviously deleted it.. I remember it was something weird with the bassline at that time.. But I'm uploading it again, since I feel it deserves to be one of the 50 songs I have here.
Hardware is a Jackson RR5, Line 6 Pod X3 and my laptop.
Software is Reaper, Addictive Drums, Gearbox.
Guitars, bass and drums by Steinaa - cant remember who did the piano parts.. My apologies..!

    Not much I can say, buddy. Your work is always top quality in my books. Since you already stated that this was a "rough mix", there's no reason for me to point out any problems in that area. Musically, I think it's a great track.

    Peace,

    First of all, this is amazing, awesome arrangement, mixed well. Faved it. But did you use gearbox? I use gearbox too, and truthfully the tone just never impresses me. It's uncanny, I wish I still had a copy of a metal song I did with my port because you'd hear it for yourself. I'll see if I can't find it. Your settings might be completely different than mine, you have a Jackson and I had a Schecter, etc, but to hear the tracks, especially when doubled, they sound identical. It kind of puts this hollow tinny thing into the mix no matter what you do to beef it up. It's funny you said that about your bassline too, I tried bringing my bassline up and just fricking hated it, hence the song's deletion now. :) I'm looking for a better option for guitar effects myself because of it. It's ok for the cleaner effects, chorus and flange, but hearing your skills, I definitely think you should consider a better port or whatever. You know what you're doing. :) Again, it's still great, and the first thing I've heard by you. I'm off to hear more now.

    Hey KateTheGreat :) First of all- thank you very much. I have used Gearbox for approximately 4 years now (since I bought my Pod X3..), and I'm really pleased with both things. Although it took awhile for me to figure out the sound I wanted, I feel like its working like it should now. Dont get me wrong here, its not close to the perfection I want, but its fair enough compared to what other stuff do in that pricerange. I would love to hear that metal song you're talking about. And by the way.. when you are doubling tracks - are you just duplicating them, or are you recording two different tracks..? (Just gotta ask..) And what setup do you use in gearbox? (Amp/cab models.) This song is not one of my better mixing-wise, and if you got time and want to hear one of my latest - this is it:

    Anyway, really appreciate your review. I'm sort of in a hurry here, so I gotta bounce - but I'm leaving the fan open on your page to listen when I get back. Thanks again Kate.

    Another awesome track. I would probably add a thicker, deeper sounding rythm to complement the lead, and add some vocals, but that's a personal preference. You have the skills to go professional, you just need to get a vocalist and contact a record company. You may need to try several, but one will eventually listen, and then ka-blam!! If that's what you want, i mean, it's your song. Fav.

    Awesome track. As usual. Even if I'm not into metal, your work is always thrilling and your musical skills impress the hell out of me. Much respect

Description : A collab with nicetones101. Dark , gritty and with questionable intent. crunchy riff driven guitars and atmospheric vocals weave together a solemn track.Hopefully we invoke some sort of emotion! \m/

Description : A collab with nicetones101 ! This has been awhile in the making, real life caught up with me and i had to take a little musical break. I looked over my past comments i received and i tried to put all the constructive criticism to work ! I turned the vocals up a bit , I also cut down on the effects and left a clean vocal track. I did want the chaos and the noise to still be a player in certain parts though. I tried to create two distinct atmospheres, an uneasy calm and a manic episode. I prefer headphones with this track as there is a lot going on at certain times.

Description : Living in the Pacific Northwest, USA, I am surrounded by countless acres of forests and mountains. Having experienced them, I know that with as beautiful and serene as they can be, so too, they can be cold, deadly and unforgiving. That's what this song is about. The wide spectrum of emotions one can feel when alone in the forest. Whether you want to be or not. Let me know what you think. --- Take care. V.

Description : Psychedelic chillout stoner/doom epic. Badass heavy riffage and drumming plus big chillout vibes. Heavy electric guitar plus slow attack lead parts. Other beauty and ambience from filter swept violins, two synth pads and some subtle female vocal samples. Also bass guitar and sub bass. Two programmed, heavy drum kits and one lighter one, to fatten up the sound.

Description : One of my greatest heavy tracks. What I find unusual is the amount of melodic and deep ambient guitar that sits on top of low, distorted riffs and fat, heavy drums. Very little synth work here apart from the sub bass, which plays almost throughout. Bass guitar in two sections and a couple of slide resonator guitar solos. Drums are a few programmed metal/rock kits, no drum loops. What I still have trouble believing and understanding is that all of the many vocal sounds in this are actually timestretched guitar parts (8x or 800% slower). I don't know why the timestretching adds such a clear vocal component to the sound. Gets darker and more intense in the middle (and towards the end) but this is otherwise quite melodic - perhaps in a way that might put off some metallers. Shitloads of guitar playing, some fairly badass, and lots of heavy, crashing drums so press play if you want to rock hard but also in a deep ambient, psychedelic way. Interesting thoughts and reflections are, as always, greatly appreciated. Detailed comments preferred...

Description : I am totally just gonna encourage you to hit play...and enjoy!

Thank you so much Mr. Bear for the track and the mix :-), now you'll have something to entertain you on your trip :-)

PLAY IN TRAFFIC! AND LOUD!

Description : I discovered Meshuggah around 2003 and was blown away by the power, complexity and super Heavy sound of their music. Their "Nothing" album marked the switch to 8 string guitars and pushed Heavy Metal into a whole new territory. My track is a variant cover of their song "Nebulous". I have stayed pretty close to the original but added a few dynamic elements of my own. Its loud, its super heavy and way out there...Beyond Nebulous.
