Hard Kandy - SpyderX

Description : This track started out as a Dance track built around a sequence I programmed on my Moog Modular synthesizer. Then I decided it needed some Heavy Metal guitars. Then I decided to throw in a Horror bridge with some glitch drums. But it rocks, nonetheless..... ;-)

Updated with a new intro because I didn't like the opening fade-in. Also added a bit of weird lead guitar for the outro.

Wow Spyder, pretty cool my friend. The guitars of course to me add that needed flavor. Very unpredictable progression through the song which is very refreshing.
BTW, did you get my email with those tracks? Havent heard back from you.
Rat.

Yeah, you know I'm basically a guitar guy, Mark, so regardless of what genre I'm composing in, there HAS to be some heavy guitars in there somewhere...! LOL

I got the tracks, buddy, but, to be honest, I stuck 'em in a folder somewhere and forgot the location. I'll shoot you an e-mail a little later this evening, bro.

Peace,

Mike

Thanks, Michael.

I thought it was a bit too repetitive the way it was, so I thought I'd try to "jazz it up a bit" to make it a little more interesting.

Peace,

Spyder

Very impressive track. Dark and moody, I love it! Nice use of synths, drums and guitars. It blended really well. I'm actually not a fan of the intro.
Keep up the great work man!

nice n groovy, yet dark, i diggit. that sounds like a disk saw guitar sound, nice.

nice at the break how the synth holds us, then that bounce vocal sound comes in, do I hear wolves or cats trying to be wolves ?

wow, excellent use of fx and your progressions are tres cool.

Cool track mate, ty 4 the dl !

Hey, Neal, thanks for the listen and review, bro.

Went to a buddy's house the other day and we listened to Killing Joke's "Pandemonium" Cd, like, six times in a row ~ so when I came home I was in a dark Industrial kind of mood, I guess.

All the synth effects in the bridge were made with a little freebie VSTi called "Alieno".

Peace,

Mike

That's a catchy sequence! Love when those metal guitars come in! Nice dark track! I like the part around 2:12, it's haunting! Very good work!

Description : "Tears of the Moon" is just a melody practice of mine, so that's why it sounds a little sloppy, as always Don't forget to share your thoughts and ideas with me. They help me a lot with improving myself. Special thanks for KayOs2.

Description : Shorten My Days is a deeply personal prayer about examining the true intentions behind our relationship with God. It wrestles with the uncomfortable question of whether we seek Him because we genuinely love Him, or because of what we want from Him and the world around us. It is a plea for God to strip away selfish motives, sustain us through life's battles, and teach us to live in a way that brings glory to His name.
Guitar: Nameless.

Description : 'Main Barbaad Ho Gaya' means 'I got destroyed in loving you'. I had created this track last year. The vocals are AI. However the music and the tune is mine. Hope you enjoy this tragic love track. I was inspired by the Bollywood movie 'Saiyaara' when creating this track.
