Description : Intro hits hard. Heavy guitars and lots of different parts. Guitar, bass, 3 MIDI kits, a few loops, and a stretched outro that brings everything back down at the end. No synths, samples or anything not played by my fingers. Lots of quad-tracking heavy rhythm guitars. Peaks and valleys throughout, with a middle section that is very swampy in atmosphere. Over-driven bass guitars and cymbal-bells sprinkled hither and yon. Could add more,... could move on. I'm pretty happy with this one. Had to upload at 192. I invite your honest opinion and critique.

Song still needs some mixing and drum repositioning
Description : This is my newest creation, at a stage very near to completion. No third-party mastering or mixing, as with all my tracks. Just have to fix a few tiny things. I FINALLY WAS ABLE TO MIX EVERYTHING IN THE SAME SESSION. This song has all human-played instruments - no quantization or MIDI! My brother does all the vocals except for the interlude part, which I do. My other brother plays the rhythm guitar (a Gibson Les Paul Custom - only one of 12 in the world!!) and I play the accompanying guitar (a Johnny Mar Jag and PRS). He has a lot of guitars :P A good friend of ours, Ronnie, plays the bass and another friend, Freddie, plays the drums. The drum track was done in one take (had to use an electric drum set due to time constraints - but acoustic kits are so much better). Overall, pretty satisfied with the result. Let me know your thoughts.
Description : I wrote this song some time ago when I was living in Florida. It's even more true today.
Vocals by Arthur Granquist, guitar by the great Kevin Lysen, drums by Marc Karmatz, also the recording engineer.
The idea musically was to take some rock and some bluegrass elements, mash 'em up and see what happened.

Description : A rock tune that has the lead held back except near the end...so you musicians out there can add vocals or lead to it. Starts out with a synth and then builds.
Description : I've Just looked at my old music archives and thought to bring some of them out for you guys to listen to.
Guys, a couple of friends and I, we've got Lowdown with this track.
One of us started with a chord and we followed each other.
I must say there are no sounds like the sounds of real drums.
I hope you enjoy it if you do then please leave me a comment.
This is my favorite especially from 3:45 onwards :-)

An yeong, Haseyo Evan.
That intro is much like app chaggi to the solar plexis, sans the hoo choo. Hits hard from the gun for sure. Really dig how you counter the aggression at mid point and mello it out a bit. But then back hard on the throttle again. A lot of interesting percussion in here but the guitars driving that hard groove and complementing ryhthms keeps it thick and interesting. Nicely depressurized outro too. Excellently produced track man.
Word up, my Missouri Methodist meth manufacturing multicellular monster.
Your last greeting was cool but you missed a small trick. If you'd ended on "globules" rather than "goblets" then you would have had "gl...gl...gl...gl". Not to worry as "goblet" is still a cool word.
I looked up salad shooters and now know what they are.
Thanks for telling me about Black Midi as that's some cool stuff. I listened to Pi, The Song With 3.1415 Million Notes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZQ7ipUQoik8
and think it's a good composition. For years, I've had mad ideas for complex stuff I could do with synths (audio too) if I had shitloads more processing power. Basically, loads of heavy, complex layering of shitloads of instruments, all morphing together and dropping in and out in complex ways. So, I'd do something called "hocketing" (sounds like an abbeviation of "hot pocketing") where I'd get one melody to be played by multiple instruments but with each instrument perhaps only playing one note in the sequence.
Maybe I'll be able to do a little more of this heavily complex stuff the next time I upgrade to a new PC. It's been 4 years since the last one so probably about time soon.
I wonder if the Slupergroupery will ever resume. All dependent on one guy, it seems.
You should get sliding again! I've hardly done any this year. Cello has dominated the last few months, but with good results.
2 nights ago, I went to see this utterly badass pair of cellists live in concert. Here they are rocking the shit out of a song you won't know. They're total virtuosos and rock as hard as the heaviest bands out there. I'm a million miles off their technical level. Press play and you will enjoy it.

This is a portal back to seventies for me ... I have long hair again!!
I have hair!!
Very nice guitar work.
Very nicely put together.
Lots of variation throughout this and it works.
What a great track Evan!
Like your 'non-compromise' attitude...play 'live' what you can is a special treasure here between the electro-trap-hip hop site...hats off...
Headbanging and waving in 4 different parts...the special bouquet is from the 1 minute mark...that is amazing...
Couldn't be criticism...this is a mega prog hit...:-)
Handshake, Danke
Hi! I love your stile. Good work man.
Oye, my good lad Evan.
This song is intense! I think I had two heartattacks and a stroke while listening. Couldn't handle the adrenaline. What did you use to record the guitars? Mic'd? CabClone? Direct in? Felt a little bit lacking in mids to my ears, but that is not a bad thing. Gives the track a sort of European sound to it. Great job as always my heart-attack-and-stroke-inducer Evan.
Brado
"Dirty Euro" is ironic on the eve of the Brexit Vote, dontcha think!
I'm gonna use it in a sentence.
That sleazy FIFA executive paid that high class ho for a hand job in "Dirty Euros". Herself being from Wales asked instead to be paid in "slimy pounds".
"Salisbury steak was invented by an American physician, Dr. J. H. Salisbury (18231905), an early proponent of a low-carbohydrate diet for weight loss"
So instead of fading out the instruments, just slowly reduce the instruments measure by measure till you're left with percussion, that sometimes works better to get to an ambient feeling in the track.

Ave, alliterative ass analyst.
Never heard of Salisbury Steak. But I do know that Salad-Shooters are guns for predominantly pacifist vegetarians. Being shot with lettuce is the equivalent of a gentle slap on the cheek though look out for some of those sharpened carrot bullets. They can really sting.
No problem regarding the misidentification. The desert shrub and hairy kayak barnacle are actually cross-species cousins. But they can never meet because of the barnacle's reverse cymbal screams. The shrub can't risk exposure to them.
Back to the track:
I think that your end section could either be a new track or should start this one. You may have opened up with the relatively weakest section, though it does get better.
You know I often do tracks containing heavy and chilled sections. However, I do also make ones with a real focus on chilling. I feel that your more chilled/steady grooving sections are some of your best so you might think about, for a change, not always mixing up heavy and chilled.
My instrument architecture knowledge is poor. I don't know what high output pickups are. I still don't even know why the active pickups on my bass g need a 9V battery to work.
"Recording four separate, yet identical tracks is a bit of a bitch."
No doubt but why stop at 4? How about 8? 64?
It seems like I might be getting intentionally ridiculous there but I have heard a composer's piece that featured about 4,000 guitarists all playing ( I think) the same thing.
Thanks for the dietary advice.
"What the fuck is a pence or a farthing? Are those things?"
Of course they are "things". I assume you mean do they still exist. Yes, though farthings are merely collectors' items as they have not been in circulation since about 1971. Pence is the plural of penny (100 of them in a pound, we still use them, not euros) but we normally just say "p" ie 50p. Our pennies are your cents, I believe.
"I've never been one to mix feet with pussies."
Fair enough but some ladies do enjoy a good toeing.
Nomad, who sold out long before you ever heard his name
Wow just wow, this is an epic piece of music. I REALLY like the fact that most of it is made by your fingers and not by clicking a mouse. It is something I try to do as well, and I always happy to hear that others doing so too. Nothing against adding the odd electronioc stuff, or loop, but the majority should be "real". I read what the others wrote, it would be useless to more or less repeat what they wrote. In my opinion this is a very good song, and if it were mine I would be very proud of it.
No pussy footing around with the intro. Bam, in yo face!! I like the second or so of amp noise before it kicks in, little things like that give songs a live feel. The whole first part is blazing hot, plenty of guitars and the drums kick ass.
I must admit my favorite part is the ending section. Might even make a cool intro for the song. It has a dark western feel to me, which I like a lot.
Well done Evan!

Greetings from the undergrowth, world champion plant identifier.
Staticus Nomadicus* here, though I bet you weren't able to identify me.
Trrrrrrrrraaaccckk!!!!
Busy, banging early action but tiny swelling intro should be twice as long. Too tiny.
Initial riffs are decent but nothing special. Sound like they need vocals.
0:30 guitar is better and we get quite a bit of muscular doublekickery.
0:58 classic Bass Bro chimey guitar sound. Pretty melodic, as usual, and kind of like a vocal line.
Back to some more rocking shit to take us to the first breakdown.
2:00 sounds cool with clean, gently chugging g fiddle. You're good at that. Palm muting, I guess. Nice delay on it. Tiny bit like Another Brick In The Wall's main guitar.
2:09 nice little chord and bass g comes to the fore. Sticky percussion is busy and good (What's brown and sticky? A stick).
This chilled middle section is very good and I like the hats. A bit like some dance music.
3:45 great switch of that riff into heaviness. Maybe could do with an open hat to beef things up as you keep it same as before (closed).
Yes, 4:24 is a lot We Care A Lot, which is a good thing. At Looperman, We Care A Lot about The Bass Bro.
5:02 nice start of skilful fade out before we get to hear your stretchy shit.
5:32 that's very cool and apocalyptic. I'm assuming you've done as advised and taken previously heard parts from the track and had fun trimming (layering?) them in this stretchy section.
5:49 very cool little fill. Sounds like a synth.
More nice stretchy fadeout as clean g takes over plus a little reverse flourish before a very good end fade.
There you go, my review came 2 weeks early.
Nomad, carefully chooning his bee by ear.
*A rare, exotic and beautiful species of desert shrub, simultaneously stationary and itinerant. Resistant to brush hogging but quickly destroyed by repetitive reverse cymbals.
Intro gets right into it, love that. 1:02, nice clean g- sound nice slap verb. This one could use some vocals. 2:01 awesome breakdown. Sort of a cha cha cha beat here, nice. I think your swamp is very clean and not murky at all. Your melodic structures always carry this appalachian modal feel in your work. 3:556 heavy and reminded me of Cult of personality from In living colour for a moment. Shit and 4:26 reminded me of old old faith no more (We Care A lot).
Don't like the main fade so much at 5:03 and the bass following as you drip into ambient fields. It's like I walked into Bed Bath and Beyond and just accidently found the Beyond! But really intriguing song. It's definitely an Evisma song but more dimensional and new ideas which is cool to hear.
Good Work.
Crubaby on Board!
