on Close To Home by Heroiconthetrack
Despite the wind FX (I agree with the others; it's a little over the top), this is amazing. I'm stunned!

on Moment of courage by SoundbenchCreative
A very relaxing track. Nice work! I love the way it's build up without getting too exhausting, too dramatic. And the way the guitar harmonises with the strings.. it sounds lovely. :)

on Vascular event by mpoppitt
Good job! And while I was listening to this track, I found it thought-provoking and distracting at the same time.. I also like the soundscape, it sounds beautiful.

on Emperor Tritone by StaticNomad
Never understood why jazz and metal "don't work together".
Ha! Yes, it sounds weird at some tiny little cute parts but I liked it. :) This definitely doesn't get boring. And aren't the dissonances the fun part anyway?

Jazetal greetings.

Not seen your name before on here.

Hard exactly to say why jazz and metal are supposed not to work. Maybe because musicians from those worlds are seen as very different, though I guess long before you had metal, jazz was the scene in which to be somewhat outrageous and take lots of drugs and alcohol etc. Though not one in which you had an ugly, unartistic mess of tattoos (that seems to be pretty much every genre of music and area of society these days).

But it's very rare that you get a jazz instrument (other than drums or bass guitar, obviously) in a metal band. Here I've got distorted Rhodes in my metal as well as an evil synth horn. So, two jazz-related instruments mixed in with the metal. You don't really get much heavy, distorted guitar in a jazz setting. Or metal kits smashing cymbals and doing furious double kick work (also here). So, aside from jazz-metal being rare, it seems that you hardly ever get the different components entering each other's musical worlds. Though I do know of a proper metal band whose lead instrument really is piano (not distorted). A very good piano player too.

One exception would be some of the more avant garde modern noisy jazz bands in which they have atonal screeching sax playing and so on (not my kind of thing). But they rarely have any heavy guitar. It's more "freaky jazz" than jazz-metal but still heading towards the more extreme side of things.

Yes, the dissonances are kind of fun and there's a big emphasis in here on the tritone (or flattened fith), hence the title. I'm mostly about trying to find beautiful sets of notes as I try to keep everything melodic. But, when you get it right, there can be a certain beauty in dissonance and weirdness. I find it helps if you make it groovy.

Anyway, thanks for your thoughts and I'm glad the track never got boring.

I'd rather be bad than bland.
