I really like the sound of this Alivid. The drums sound fantastic, the phaser actually really works well with them. The background synths fit in really well with the bass and drums, and it feels like it all fits together, without anything sticking out. The strings in the middle sounded fantastic, love the way that the drums were then re-introduced.

Really high quality track here 'Livid, I enjoyed the listen!

Fav'd/Downloaded.

some great stuff brother... loving the vibe you put on this... the panning is insane in places....

some of that high end needs cutting over the whole track... it does clip in places but...

I really have no critic at all... nice work brother..keep 'em coming

In writing, there's evidence of human production in handwriting. Chirography - "pour water gently over chirographic text." In the Sahara, they do that with holy words and drink the ink water.

It's lost in the grapholect - print technology. Just dead words, like little butterflies pinned onto panels waiting for someone to breathe life into them again reenacting the whole solar god resurrection motif.

I thought dubbing/mixing prerecorded sound could go no further than its grapholect equivalent, but I was wrong. "...and to think I ever hesitated." Doing it live changes everything.

This one has real presence. Thanks for allowing the download before deleting it!

You must remind me sometime of the writer you mention who was always re-writing the last line..

Especially after reading Micheal Crichton lol
"Books aren't written- they're rewritten. Including your own. It is one of the hardest things to accept, especially after the seventh rewrite hasn't quite done it."

That's me...

I really like your interpretation there, about the dead butterflies... To take that further, I always revel on the idea that ideas are just dead thoughts. Our mouths express lost time. Everything is fleeeeeeting you know?!

Hah, Yeah man... Sean I love you. lol You get it.

I don't think I do tho unfortunately.....
only in brief spurts of beauty.

wow seriously!?

I could export everything and send... in fact I will.
:)

umn.. But I do plan on adding some variations on the drums tomorrow, also I am trying to get a little girl to sing "I want to live forrrrever" and then kinda lay that over on it...
I think it will add a very very very nice level of surrealism to the track?
But either way man, I will send what I have...
Getting the individual cymbal/hihat tracks and stuff can be done too, it's kinda been bounced down and down over and over lol

I agree with Eshar. Less is more. ;-) Sounds more complete. Has a real nice flow to it. Cool beginning! Love how you break it up with the rhodes organ and then introduce a new beat. That beat goes really well with the organ! Nice creative track. Gonna Fave this one!

Later,

Hehe, thanks!... Grrrrr tho as well.. Cause I had this opened up like right now right now.. and I am feeling kinda ... indifferent about it.

I am going to do an orchestra at the end, as long as I can figure out the key modulation...

I swear I would probably be better off as a studio musician than an artist lol...

But anyway... ... I think I am about to throw the kitchen sink at this one lol

Experimental music, very well done, with passages of intense and profound (the drums) .... I like this atmophere that you created. It's really good ....

Thank you VickyDan!
Yeah, I gots blisters on my fingers (not from playing guitar but clumsly smashing my fingers against the snare drum lol)

I updated it with a middle-eastern string section that I chopped up playing a crappy violin.

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.
