A little dose of Blues from time to time is not bad. Great work.

Thanks. Yeah, I usually find myself working in the Rock to Hard Rock genre, but it is always nice to get back to the blues. Thanks for the listen and feedback.

This really can be a good soundtrack to a Mafia game or movie. I think developers and directors really should go out on a search for music that regular people can produce because this is awesome.

Hold on tight as opposed to loosely? ;) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vJtf7R_oVaw
I love the blues!! Addicted to playing it on my cigar box guitars now B-)

Lol...yeah I went with Tight. :)

Yeah I also love to step back into just heavy Blues feel from time to time. It is like a soul cleansing at times.

Thanks for the listen and the comment.

Feels very real.
What I mean is that it doesn't smack you in the face with sounds that feel empty and cold but instead provides a familiar warmth.
It's rare for music to have that anymore.
Well done!

Thanks bro. I didn't want to make it sound too produced. Wanted more of a Live Jam feel with some warm Blues.

hi, very raw guitar blues improvisation along the track... it is absolutely fascinating listening to you playing eventhough you're only using some simple repeating backing track... great jamming and lots of interesting blues riffs just to enjoy and to listen to...
really nice work.

Thanks Alex....yes I laid down the rhythm tracks first and then went back and just jammed to it. The lead was done in one take. Glad you dug it and I appreciate the kind words.

Great comp here Vega. Sounding pro with the guitar playing, drums have a nice light mix to them. But that makes them alot more enjoyable. At least for me, clean mix too. Jamming, reminds me of the tunes we had playing on my intern a while back. Nice one man, peace

Thanks for taking the time to give it a listen and comment bro. Always appreciative of the support. This really was pretty much a jam. I remember I had just smoked a big fat bowl of some Kush and I was feeling pretty good. The whole lead was done in one take after the bowl. Your kind words of support mean a lot. Thanks again.

Thanks bro...I appreciate the kind words and support. It's what keeps me going. I was looking for that old school 60.s-70's CCR sound. Thanks for taking the time to check it out.

Hey Ed, thanks for the very kind words and the support. It is greatly appreciated. I am always striving to get the sound and tone just right. I am a big fan of the "live" sound as well. Thinking about adding some Rock organ or harmonica to this. It still feels a bit naked. Thanks again.

Description : This one is special. The Monzder Squadd is tired of seeing and hearing about all the awful things going on around the world, and in our own country. Our friend and fellow Splatterhouse ENT member Flat2Forge told us about some of the news from his side of the world, so we dedicate this one to him, and to Ukraine, and everywhere in the world where people are suffering. Hope you like it!

Not my lyrics.
The experiment began with asking GPT to write lyrics for a 3-minute house track; I ended up with way too much text, and I don't sing that fast. Next, I started coming up with melodies for the vocals, recorded the vocal parts, added instruments, and reworked the melodies, drum, and bass lines over and over again in an attempt to create a cohesive whole.
I made extensive use of JS: Vocoder (by Geraint Luff).

I hope you enjoy

Description : Ah this track. There's a little something for everyone in this, including some EDM inspired stuff. The Sewer Maawb's vibe is meant to invoke the hip hop and trap sound from 99-2012, and there are many influences in that timespan, one of those is Timbaland. Hope you enjoy it! Additional vocals by Rob Fame of The Monzder Squadd.

Description : This is cyberflares track nightdrive. He was kind enough to let me jam out with it. Which is what I've been doing the last two nights. So huge thanks to him for letting me. All I did was add some guitar that hopefully sounds like guitar but also doesn't... ;) I've been experimenting with pushing the sounds I can get from guitar to blend with electronic music.
