Description : This needs a lot of work... I am working on it.

This is a track that I have been working on for about 6 months, maybe more,.... the ideas behind it go back for years.

It is hundreds of channels of audio and real live samples, some by KJ Sawka (the drummer from pendulum) and a lot of my own.

I am trying to mix Metal and Drum and Bass, two very very different genres, but both very compatible.

tempos are almost exact.

But anyway, I need to re-master this some more, but it's still pretty killer.

I hope you like it, and if you don't ctrl+x yourself.

Firstly, I'm not a big fan of metal. I don't "hate it", but I don't really listen to it either and have never felt the urge to. Secondly, I'm an even lesser fan of people mixing genres like dubstep and dnb with metal [it's done way more with dubstep of course]. Thirdly, I liked this.

The reason the third point contradicts the first two, well especially the second, is because this is an example of how it SHOULD be done. When I say I'm not a fan of people mixing dubstep/dnb with metal, I don't mean I'm against the "concept" of it. That would just be silly and close minded. What I am against is the mostly horrific execution, because 99% of these mash-ups take the worst, most base aspects of both genres and just throw them in a blender with no sense of how they fit together....something which you, thankfully, have not done, and this is why I liked this.

As far as specifics go - the drums are insane, the riffs are all over the place in a good way [ie it never comes close to becoming monotonous] and sound great, and the mastering sounds fine to these ears. The only thing I missed was a sub to hold up the DNB end of a dnb-metal combination, but then I can't imagine if there was any room for that...or my headphones just didn't pick it up.

And to think anyone ever thinks I tend to mash too much together! It's about outcomes, isn't it? Symbolically speaking - for the Buddhists it's the Empty Glass and for the Qabalists it's the Full One. All roads lead to Dali's Museum.

Glad to see someone helping Dad (Metal) and Mom (DnB) see the divorce wasn't really necessary.

Figured since I was here, I might as well listen to all of your tracks.....

both of them, haha.

Glad I did. This is epic. My computer starts to puke when I have more than 24 or 25 tracks cooking at one time. If I gave it 100 it would commit electronic suicide....

On that note, all I can say about this one is WOW...WOW...WOW!!!!

You are the man.

Thank you! Means a lot... Man.. Bear... I am totally struggling... SO dissastisfied with my skills... with LIVE music.. with the effing scenes.. THE dead-end lifestyle of musicianship or entertainment....

Even despite these claims of "art".. I can't find my heart in it at times, and it breaks it into a thousand pieces... I suffocate under that weight of loss.

This is an awesome fusion! The two genres really are meant for eachother aren't they? It really seems like you put a lot into this one! The drums are a wicked hybrid sound! Very cool guitar riffage! Nice work man!

Description : "Tears of the Moon" is just a melody practice of mine, so that's why it sounds a little sloppy, as always Don't forget to share your thoughts and ideas with me. They help me a lot with improving myself. Special thanks for KayOs2.

Description : Shorten My Days is a deeply personal prayer about examining the true intentions behind our relationship with God. It wrestles with the uncomfortable question of whether we seek Him because we genuinely love Him, or because of what we want from Him and the world around us. It is a plea for God to strip away selfish motives, sustain us through life's battles, and teach us to live in a way that brings glory to His name.
Guitar: Nameless.

Description : 'Main Barbaad Ho Gaya' means 'I got destroyed in loving you'. I had created this track last year. The vocals are AI. However the music and the tune is mine. Hope you enjoy this tragic love track. I was inspired by the Bollywood movie 'Saiyaara' when creating this track.

This started as a bandlab beat called Gridlock. Just mentioning in case someone wants to go get a clean version of the main backing track.
