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 : 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 : 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 : UPDATED!
My latest work. It would be awesome to find a singer for this.. 105 BPM
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.

Description : This unconventional metal track is dedicated to Valvedriver https://www.looperman.com/users/profile/841435 though it's not a parody of his fine music or me actively trying to sound like it. I struggled for months with the first few minutes of this track knowing that I must be able to take it somewhere deeper, more psychedelic and powerful. Then I loaded some sampled choir voice instruments, as used in my track Reckful https://www.looperman.com/tracks/detail/160356 and suddenly found myself happily in Valveland - not a place I visit often. Feeling amply Valvedriven and newly inspired, I added the last few minutes fairly easily and very quickly. So: it's a twisting, turning mixture of grunge, menacing ambient, mystical metal and ultra-heavy funk. Instruments: electric guitar+bass, synth basses, female choir voices, one synth pad, some other synths on the nastier side of things and a few programmed heavy acoustic drumkits playing a mixture of triplets and straighter grooves. Interesting thoughts appreciated. Favourite bits? Shit bits? Please listen on good headphones/speakers as there's a lot of heavy bass in this. Now get ready to rock: balls out, hands in the air and with rebellious joy in your heart. Just try not to headbang the hell out of your laptop. Go!
This is great work Static.... Hats off to you.

Hi MrNomad,
Good title for this track... I had to look in the dictionary for this word: thanks, now I know one english word more :-)
You had me after the first seconds: a firm riff, little hendrix influence, solid rhythm. you can't go wrong from here.
The we have a perfectly fitting "guitar signal interruption" (may I say a chasm?) @ 1:38
Followed by a Good slide guitar solo.
At 3:00 the song gets quieter and we have your "characteristic" chrosued-heavy-effected-bass-like sound.
Interesting... nothing new from you, but interesting.
break at ~3:45 ... haunting distant guitars, good idea.
and from here we go into a "mildly-wild" guitar solo (with some notes borrowed from an eastern scale?)
good
@5:00 almost a reprise of the original riff...
The break with a "complete stop" gives the listener time to breath ... but not to much because we immediately get another "wild guitar part" ... again with the distant guitar sounds.
~7:05 ... double tempo (pat.pending - S.N. Inc.)
...slow down and prepare for the ending...bye!
I enjoyed the song.
Thanks!
Ciao, Domenico
Hey brother. I listened to this one a while back, but didn't the chance to get back to it. I tried listening again, but my damn phone isn't letting me play any tracks. So, I'll be giving it another shot in the morning, then I can leave a proper comment. I didn't want you to think I've forgotten to show the love!
Hey Mr. Static !
Man this track immediately shot straight to #1 on my Looperman Billboard 100. Far and away my favorite of yours to date. As much as it is undeniably StaticNomad there's quite a bit of uncommon things in here as your tracks go. I like how you just dove right in with the heavy distorted groove but I was totally taken by surprise with that ensuing riff. The sound reminds me of Steelpans or Jamaican steel drums. Awesome !!!! I absolutely love it man. Its such a contrast but that's what makes it cool. Where do you come up with this stuff?
Oh man that is a sweet and oh so tasteful lead with the resonator slide. Besides delay and reverb what other effect if any are you using there? Nice tempo changeup there at 2:11 with a more intense lead and then a nice chord drop before reverting back on the tempo. Some low register stuff becomes apparent around 2:53 as the bass line gets a dominant role. This is a really cool section where you run with the bass a few bars with the background swells and heavy toms. Then its onto the Psychedelic mid section. Lots of crazy buildup of tension and BAM! We drop off into the Abyss of Bass and some way "Groovy" spacial ambience. Am I hearing reverses in there? I cant believe Evan didn't rag on you about that! But it is cool and fitting. The last section takes us back into the main groove with some nice outro leadage on a more mellow side, leading up to that nice smooth and melodic fade of an ending.
Great stuff here bro, truly one of your best.
I too though question the title. I always question titles by the way. I'm guessing it's meaning has to do with the Deepness or Heavy nature of this beast. To which I would then say its appro-po.
Take care my friend, and Thanks for opportunity to sample this gem.
the beat got my 2 year nephew stunting
Hey man I'm liking this, that little melodic riff takes the whole production in a very cool direction indeed, a lot of heavy metal can get compartmentalised by it's own metalness sometimes(if that makes sense) not this though you have an excellent live jam continuity happening great fluidity..sort of Greatfull Deadish in so many ways (which is a big thumbs up) an excellent track!....I'm going to shift gears here and talk about the production side of things for a minute, you've obviously got a very creative head on your shoulders and your projects are orchestrated with many elements, I can hear something that I've grappled with since I started recording and still suffer from, it plagues us all...muddiness in the mix, however I finally started doing something last week that I've known for quite awhile (with a little help from buying some new drum software I might add) and it works, processing every drum element on a separate track, the trouble with having all the drums on one track is when you engage reverb or compression or anything for that matter it effects the whole kit without discrimination which isn't desirable and starts compacting a project from step one..it's amazing when the drums are opened up how this effects the whole composition for example a dry compressed kick sounds great with a reverb snare(I know, teaching grandma to suck eggs)....Just a tangential though as listening to this track I get that Spector wall of sound, there's so much good playing going on here it's pretty amazing, excellent work and a huge thumbs up!
Guitar-stretched greetings, my dearest Nomad.
That intro actually brought Van Halen to mind haha. Beautiful, strong and thick intro.
The guitar that comes in at the next segment really opens up the space of the track, sits nicely in the middle, pushes away everything else and draws all attention to it, like a diva in Los Angeles.
Sick little riffs you got going on with that lead, that reverb/delay you have applied to it is gorgeous, really adds that spark to the track as a whole. No complaints at all.
That guitar work that starts at 2:31 is sweet, subtle and addicting to my ears. Everything sounds so wide! And I think I can hear some stretched guitar here too?
That resting sound at the next segment is absolutely ace!! Perfect balance of drums, guitar and bass. You're too good at this! You SERIOUSLY need to make an album of your stuff. It's that good haha.
More slowed-down guitar that always makes my ears perk up. I love how it sounds slowed-down. Has this eerie, captivating, melancholic tone that overarches the rest of the high-energy track.
The solo at 4:18 is again, subtle, sweet, blends beautifully into the background but still maintains attention. You're pulling some sick plays on this one haha. You sound like you're having too much fun on this one haha.
That chord change at 5:00 is gorgeous and in good taste. It meshes so epic-ly with that guitar solo. The bass is big, airy and juicy. I love this!
The almost-dead silence at 5:42 is SO AWESOME. It draws all the attention to the stretched guitars. This is by far my favorite part of the entire song just because it's so different.
Then the next segment fires back in, lacking that solid bass that one does not notice is there until they hear the track without it. Beautiful mixing. Lots of energy, too beautiful for my ears haha. This is one of your best works in my opinion. That timestretching takes the track to a whole new level, in my humble opinion.
Drum pattern change breathes new life into the song and gives a sense of ending. More grungy, powerhouse goodness and a gentle solo overlaying it all.
It returns to a steady beat with more timestretched guitar and then it closes down slowly, being consumed by the time-stretched guitars. AWESOME. NUFF SAID.
Brado
Nice Intro. Reminded me of In living colour for some reason. lovely string bends. 1:15 nice bring it back in. cool reverse sounds ( I am assuming these are the stretched sounds). Hard snares bring us to 2:55 and a cool bassline with some jangles. 3:19 has some time stretching creeping in to the song. Starting to get lost in the song mentally. Then 5:44 is a breakdown like I have never heard from you before. Hauntingly Ambient with those stretches. I almost wish it went on a few measures more before you gave us that hard guitar. It's like you took the Turkey out of the oven, and it's perfectly done and golden brown and were all admiring it, and then you go and fist it while cursing out grandma at what a lousy bridge player she is. Just a bit shocking for a moment. Ending was just right. I liked it. Overall I like the experimentation you are doing with time stretching.
U get 4 Shitting birds 3 french Le Pens 2 turtlenecks and a part of a pear I ate in a tree. or you can have 5 golden shower cock rings....completely your choice this X-mas.
I will now slip back into my slowly devolving insanity and bid you a good day.
cruinstitutionalised for your own good!
I do very much enjoy this one. I dont hear this kind of heavy metal much anymore. Transitions are great and increase greatly throughout the song leading into many dark tones that blend together perfectly.
Like this - great intro pulls you right in - contretemps of the I think, slide works at about :25.
Great Drums at about 2:32. Always hear Ry in your stuff - Not sure this is heavy metal in my understanding - wait at 3:40 it gets a bit metally then goes to rockish guitar work with GREAT LICKS at 4:50. Great guitar work.
Back to metal at 6:20. Definitely badass guitar work. The vocal simulation works to the point that you could build a track off of it. Good use of pads as well.
Brilliant bits throughout.

Greetings, O Deep one. Your chasm may be deep and impressive, but like all others, it's littered with pennies, gum wrappers and a few shoes at the bottom. And one old tire. Always and old tire at the bottom of a chasm. Mandatory.
Trrrack!
Intro is muffled chunkiness, followed by a lead that reminds me of Tom Petty's guitarist. Airy "Don't Come Round Here No More" sitar intro kinda feel. Nice tones.
0:55 very lyrical phrasing feel to the lead, like a vocalist's inflections, though I know it's not the vocal part you speak of in your description.
2:53 Another part from you that makes me think of a beach at sunset. Your music has given me that visual before.
The 4:00 area is different for you. Sounds polished and rather professional. Nice.
The following lead onslaught is a fine show of badassery.
Thick and deep guitar tone in the last movement. Leading to an outro lead that makes me think of slowly swirling blue and white smoke.
This one is down with the thickness. Melodic, and more upbeat than I expected.
Name is not befitting.
My suggestions:
Moonbeam Tonnage
Submissive Denominator
Piss On You -a love song
Monkey-Curse Lifted
(and my favorite)
God On God Pornography
The last one is a gem I've been waiting to break out. "Mean Motor Scooter" is a contender, as well.
I hope all is well with you. I should have Hypnoculars done before December ends. I've got a lap-steel intro, an "A" part and a "B" part. I'm repeating the "A" part with a new lead and extras, repeating only half of "B", but then I've got a whole later chunk to write. We'll see. It's at 4:20 at the moment.
Take care.
Evan, robs the grave to snow the cradle, then burns the evidence down.
I love time-stretching guitars. It creates a haunting "shimmer" that can really make a track come alive. I love the opening melodies and the feeling of sheer joy you seem to feel when just rocking out. The psychedelic doom fusion works surprisingly well and keeps the track feeling fresh. It's gonna take afew listens to capture everything that's going on here. So I shall have to favorite it and keep coming back!
TA
Its like Jimmy Page recruited Jeff Beck - I really love this - love the driving drums coming to the fore later - great stuff
TheKunig
I'll get that 1 bpm epic doooom track together so you can shred over it :D
Melodic metal my favorite metal \m/ especially melodic doom 3:) I like that idea of time stretching guitar parts for vocals haha!! I love how dark it gets, the vocal(guitar) is kind of creepy. I'll play this again tonight on my stereo after work, may have more thoughts. Speaking of 800x slower, have you heard the spongebob theme song slowed down 800x? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Oyo4Bcy1Sc Who lives in a pineapple under the sea? Why, Cthulu of course!!
