Approaching Terminus - Kper

Name: Approaching Terminus
Duration: 250 s
Channel: Kper
Description: Continuing the Asimov's Foundation theme. The exiled psychohistorians from Trantor begin their final approach to the barren planet Terminus with a sense of apprehension, awe, and spiritual beginnings. I began with electronic sounds leading to a metal sound that provides a background to sci fi melodies. I used Acid Music Studio and some loops from this site.

Another great track and another nudge for me to put Asimov's "Foundation" series on my reading list. I'm not generally a big fan of metal music but when it is kept under control, as in this piece, it can be an irresistible force. Nice work creating something very enjoyable. -Ken

I really try to use metal sounds as a compliment to other sounds versus an end unto its own. I try to use it to convey emotion and urgency with all the other sounds. Thanks again for your support and encouragement. I will keep checking out your site as well to look for inspiration. Take care, Kenikos. Kper

talk about out there,, the meeting of styles is awesome or should i say terestrial. Besides this did you know that NASA will be blowing a hole in the moon this week.. shame

Kper replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

Blowing a hole in the moon? Wow. That sounds like a good title to a song. We humans have a tough time just leaving everything within our reach alone. Thanks for the review. Kper

Really cool! I'm a big fan of this sort of stuff, awesome job. Nice drumming, nice guitar, cool synth sounds. I even like the descriptions and theme for the song. Faved!

Kper replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

Appreciate the feedback, AD9. This song is part of a series I am doing so I hope to continue the story. I am glad the descriptions add to the interest. Thanks again for the review. Kper

I think we have the same approach to metal, very symphonic and original, love all that is happening, the audio story telling is great, structure really well thought out, great production, this is my kind of metal, great job.

Kper replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

I've always enjoyed intellectual metal that does more than just cuss and talk of rebellion. It is neat to listen to all the talent on this site that mainstream metal could really tap into and benefit from. The amount of originality a person can find here is staggering. I have much respect for those, such as yourself, who keep pushing the envelope. Thanks for the review, BigPete. Kper

Hey Kper.
I must say that you've done a really great piece of work with this one. The intro is setting the scene and mood of the song in a perfect way. Leading towards guitars with a sound that fits like a condom. The synths and the drums are pretty much flawless.

I almost feel like I gotta start reading those book you read.
Keep these coming man, totally awesome.

Kper replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

Thanks for all the support. Nice metaphor- that's a new one for me- :-) I'm trying to find the time to invest in all this but it has been tough. Thanks again. Kper
