You are an excellent instrument maker and musician.
This track sounds so authentic.
I could see this song being featured on an episode of Mayans while they're riding their Harleys...

Peace

Esto es alucinante, suena de vicio, me gusta este ambiente hipnótico y LA ENORME CALIDAD EN LA PRODUCCIÓN. la lluvia y el cuervo complementa el ambiente espectral de la pista. Gracias Burtsbluesboxes por dejarnos descargar esta obra de arte. Que tengas un buen día. Paz y salud para todos.

Awesome thank you :D You may need to use google translate like I did and that's what I got below. I do music as a hobby just like building these homemade guitars from junk. I find with production less is more. The more you EQ and compress stuff the worse you end up making it sound. I try and get the tone I like before recording, then adjust to get everything in the mix comfortably.

Impresionante gracias :D Es posible que deba usar google translate como lo hice yo. Hago música como un pasatiempo al igual que la construcción de estas guitarras caseras de basura. Me parece que con la producción menos es más. Cuanto más ecualizador y comprimir cosas peor terminas haciendo que suene. Trato de obtener el tono que me gusta antes de grabar, luego ajustar para obtener todo en la mezcla cómodamente.

Still at it and still lurking in the graveyards ;) I hadn't been recording much for a bit, doing more building than playing. I've got to take some time tonight and scroll through what everyone's been up to lately.

i need those frets i think!! hdu are frequently quite loud and full on but they do some good atmostpheric stuff. a song called 'lull' off their higher album is a good example of their more ambient stuff. all the best to you

LOL!! Fretless slide is definitely a different style. I like 3 string tuned open g GDG. I have a 4 string fretted tuned EADG like a regular guitar. There's one stringers, 2 stringers, 3, 4 5, and your traditional 6. Lap steels are pretty big thing too. People will make them out of a 2x4 or old violin case. If you get a chance look up Fat Knuckle Freddy. He's like the Jimi Hendrix of the primitive fretless guitars. He calls his style Graveyard Blues. Very Punk like, loud and full of energy. Very cool guy if you get to ever meet him too. I was set up selling guitars at a show he played 2 weeks ago, his dinner set was quite mellow, laid back playing, sitting in a chair. When he took the stage for the night set it was wild. Shocked some of the people :D

Love the intro, guitars sounds awesome. Homemade far out, you're obviously a craftsman and we need more of those! I'll tell u this reminds me a little of a nz band called hdu who use similar layered guitar textures. But this is unique and I really enjoyed it.

We sure do!! I'll look up hdu, I love dark atmosheric music. We need more fretless music, who needs those stinking frets any way LOL!

Not the biggest fan of this genre, dark and moody, but had to comment on that guitar, whether it my thing or not, that guitar is superb and the crow was cool and I like the sharp end plain old stop, well done

We can all learn alot from each other and other genres. I learned a ton here when I started out using a computer to make music from the electronic based musicians. I wish we could share pictures on here. The guitar is made from an old kitchen drawer, wallet tin, piece of oak for the neck and an old Telecaster pick up.

This is great - dark and moody and wonderful (and with the crow sound a little quirky) production and I love that you actually made the guitar AS WELL as writing a great atmospheric track - really epic - I hope all the random listeners lean in to more than the first 15 seconds. Ends a little abruptly but nice work

I'm very pleased with the first track Sorrow, the second needs a bit more work, really thinking I need to extend it. On you tube there's 2 documentaries on cigar box guitars, Songs inside the Box and Makers of a revolution a uk based one. There's a long history of homemade instruments by people wanting to make music but not able to afford expensice guitars and such. Damn things are more addictive than crack! Dark and moody is my favorite stuff :D

Description : I asked Danke if I could add some vocals to his track Future Machine and he kindly agreed and sent me the track. The lyrics are about a soldiers experience in war as he and his trench mates are told to get up and out of their trench and attack the enemy across open fields. I can only imagine the fear, tension and chaos that goes through one's mind at that moment.

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 : My heaviest and most extreme track. Also the first with no synths. Crashing and smashing programmed drums and dirty layers of electric guitar (with a psychedelic, Eastern feel at times). Bass guitar plus a slide resonator guitar solo. No drum loops. Don't play this at your grandmother's funeral. Not unless she was a real headbanger.

Description : Something I slapped together in like an hour or so, I bought a new midi keyboard with a sequencer which made dragging and dropping sounds where I wanted 'em easy, so really this was a test run, I usually write a lot of metal and don't have the time to upload my material but here's a start, this has a techno vibe???? I guess to it. Enjoy.
