The Denim Clad Monk - Silverman

Very interesting piece you have made! I really don't seem to have any reference when it comes to what you have done here, which I think is a great thing! Never heard anything quite like it, at least that I remember. Very deep arrangement, and the mix sounds nice to my ears. At first I thought it was loud, but then the mix brought everything together, and the result was so balanced. I did seem to notice some clipping in the intro, and maybe later, but it seemed confined to a specific track in the mix, maybe a recorded hardware instrument? Did not take away from the amazing track though! Expresses a modern urban landscape for me very well. I love the synthetic effects you used sparingly, so effective! Massive favorite!

Man, you really know how to paint a picture with your music. Each track that I've listened to of yours takes me on a bit of a journey, and that is some talent.

Thanks for sharing :)

Very enjoyable journey my friend....and very cinematic! The
general approach is as always very creative ! Keep up good work...
...did I say good?...Oh no, it's excellent !:)

Great title! I agree with Mos, cinematic is what first popped into my mind. I picture a journey, on heavy footed yaks of course, where the monk spreads his wisdom throughout the land. Nice soundscape, has a world music feel to it.

Being denim clad he would "levi"tate to show his powers of the mind. ;)

This is a cool trip. The bass line almost mirrors a snare drum pattern cadence used by the military bands of the west. Then we have crazy sitars backed by a soft drone. Then a sino like modal pattern with those midi guitars. 2:30 is like new age pattern from the late eighties early nineties. 3:22 those monks return with real snares. cool convergence of sounds very creative and I like how it's like a journey. Nice "ting" for the end.
Great job.
thoroughly enjoyed that one.

Hey mate

Nice bass and beat to this one, loving the pads coming in at the intro, very dramatic cinematic type of piece this one, pads/strings and cello really standout in this track, giving it a journey type of feel with the beat and bass, very enjoyable listen, in parts the track reminds me of a great Japanese artist Kitaro, if you haven't heard of him, check him out on YouTube and will see what I mean...massive fav...Peace mosaic...

I`m not sure that monk is as peaceful as he is supposed to be...maybe he used some of the wrong kind of mountain weed in making his incense..now, that part starting around 2:20 sees him with a new peaceful vision of his role...before temptation comes his way again at 3:42 for a while....very cool trip silverman...certainly different...and most definitely an enjoyable listen...great job...Ed

Brother to the Leather Clad Monk :p What is that string instrument, the bass one? Sounds like a plucked cello. I like the synth sound that's kind of like throat singing. Recorded live at a monastary in the Himilayays, the same one I escaped to when running from the yeti after Orlando stopped singing to him!!

haha i wrote frightening wrong

So cold and pretty Frightning stuff ... Very nice song
