on A Radiant Death v254 by alividlife

Man I remember myself and a few mates hitting a pub on the outskirts...we took over the jukebox...we decided what was gonna get played lol until a group of metal head bikers passing through gatecrashed the pub...big hairy dudes lol...so one of them proceeded to the jukebox and we gladly stepped aside...thinking we were gonna get bombarded by death metal music grabbed our coats...man we were so wrong, they were pumping out Aphex Twin, drum and bass music....we proceeded to get drunk with them lol

So yeah to conclude..metal heads got good tastes...man I have heard this before and its still wicked...awesome fusion of sounds combining to make a solid track...nice come down outro...serenity in death??

alividlife replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

Yes thank you! Hey man, make more music!! I miss yer style lol

ahh, but to explain further, at the time that I wrote this, I was just getting thru the first few months of being offa the hard drugs, so in a way, it was the death of certain attributes, ideas, and habits. Me dropping the bottle and running and the beast in the background?... yea kinda stupid and cheesy lol.. but it meant a lot to me at the time?..

OH, btw,.. Something that I have been struggling with, and I know I kinda fell off there for a bit (i do often lol) but you know.. I really miss how you get people together and create music-- you know?.. With this whole digital thing.. I am getting very frustrated, because .. I already KNOW how everything is going to sound, or how I want it too... I really miss the live synergistic context .. jamming man...

Loops and collabs here and there are really all I am truly interested in lately.

on SIMKA - OrientalDEMO) by simkadbstep

Some vocals would be good but as an instrumental itself, you should pursue on the extended version, the eastern vibe works well with the structure you have created...would love to hear more...go for it man.

Digging the chill out vibe of the percussion here, sounds like the perfect backdrop for those vocals....sweet voice....sweet track, great chill out track man.

[Draft 2 comments]

Phenomenal! Great move in getting Nauda for the recitement...perfectly tasteful and gives the track a theatre feel...great use of the effects on the vox also....awesome mix Sean always admire how you speak about creative ideas and put them into action....listening to you speak about the whole idea and concept of this piece then hearing it come to form like this is mindblowing!

Saving my nerves for the post-edited version, scarily good.

n0mad23 replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

Thanks so much for inadvertently sending this one down the appropriate path! Truly pipes are the secret ingredient in the TechnoShamanistic evocation of rEvolution. So much so, that I can't even imagine this one anymore without them. Probably musical and cultural heresy, but timely. Thanks again!

on neilly and doods 1st track by themuralist

Good show Neil and so glad you were able to retrieve this track and share it on the loop, sounds real nice man...vocals alongside the guitar parts are a treat to the ears...you guys captured something special with this one. respect.

on Dancing with the Carnival Rebellion feat Nuada by n0mad23

Yeah what would a rebellion music project be without bagpipes, amazing how you have fused the past with the present here...the sonic movements and the way they make you dance is new....almost like following the piper up the hill twirling and spinning on the way up...very Psychedelic and makes you want to look upto the sky and embrace life....very powerful track man can't wait for you to finish this piece.

n0mad23 replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

Too many buttons and knobs - lol. I'm really tempted to tease out more of the psychedelia with the next version, especially in the gated set of canters. Something about the sounds swirling around together that's really magical to me. Thanks so much for your assistance with this one - having you on the editorial staff is a profound joy. Let's start thinking collab again.

on Action Figures by Avonaco

Can never get sick of this beat man...again this gets me moving, the breakdowns are neat to me and in the 'Now' after finding out the order of the tracks the outro of this piece seems perfect for the introduction into Ham radio...each track almost a prelude into the next and it works for me...great work with melding the percussions..the ambience make the track wide opening listening also.

Thanks again for the collab and so glad you accepted the offer of doing so....dabbling with the Mardi Gras vibe and fusing the African percussion with your Apache drums seems distant now and the way it has evolved since then has been a treat to witness.

cheers bro and good work

S

Avonaco replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

Dude... it turned out pretty good. I appreciate the work you've put into this collaboration as well. I believe that all three were influenced by the ground work YOU laid down. From some stuff sitting in the closet into three..count em'..three great variants of the the same formula. This collab has introduced me to a different way to not only hear but listen to the music as well. Not to be braggadocios... but I believe we all did right by the music. Glad you dig the track bro. THAT'S what's up.

Cheers!!

on When Hippos sing with Frogs by n0mad23

Wow man listening to this again after such a long time, worth leaving another review....become very familiar with your style over the last year which to me... considering 'Music to have a rebellion to' has mellowed since this early material..though the chaos is still there in your present work ...it seems more controlled....here we have pure uncut furiousness which could easily be the representation of a furious hippo hell bent on bringing chaos to a village...the whole context of the piece listening now gives me those animated images.....within the madness of this track is some excellent sound work man...and it is Dub!

In the mood for listening to more from the man...and there are some classic tracks to choose from.

cheers.

n0mad23 replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

Yeah, jahknow called it way back when, didn't he? It's dub totally removed from the Jamaican Reggae spices, but remains unadulterated Dub nonetheless. Raw, ferocious and ultimately danceable. Same stream, different gyrations. Cheers!

Well titled this track, the sun definitely came out to play the day this was recorded..the scratching gives the track a fun element and the overall vibe a playground kinda innocent feel...good job.

This is a good collab for sure, not huge on rock music but this gets the right away with me, production quality is sweet and the texture of the instruments spot on and easy on the ears..good piece of music my man....looking forward to your collab with simmerdown...keep up the good work bro.

Thank you Salook,AllenV is one of the best guitarists in site, this track would be sounded so horrible without allen and his guitar, thanks to him, the track turned out ok!

on The Time Will Come by Alen9R

Nice update which seems worth going back on..very strong structure...digging the brass which is very uplifting and the beat doesn't sound heavy at all on this end...track is well balanced out and for being unmastered sounds overall good to me.....looking at the other reviews it seems I missed the vocals..would have been nice to hear that..cheers

S

Alen9R replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

Hey Salook!

I replaced the files in order to preserve reviews, this is second track,and these reviews are from the last track!

I need to do a little softer drums, then i got on the strength of all elements, when I put track in Cool Edit, then is showed that some elements are "suppress" in track, particularly i mean on the bells and piano!But these are small issues,I need to do a little better mastering the drums, and that's it!!Cheers for review, thanks a lot Salook!

on Digital Aboriginalism - Osmosis and the Veil by n0mad23

Digging the updates Sean, always sounds so different hearing it on the loop, still an intense experience, feelings of movement above ones head, ghost like and supernatural the dials are moving up and down on this version the ululations and wailing's giving indications of something trying to enter this world..great mix my man and a pleasure experimenting these realms with you and Avanaco

Cheers.

n0mad23 replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

What is that about streaming music vs. the copy on your hard drive? I've noticed that on the streaming radio station on the other site as well - there's a dynamic that's totally different. This has been a fantastic collaboration experience for me. Thanks again for bringing me in, and for introducing me to Avonaco. Feels like a cabal forming somehow...don't worry citizens, we're benevolent.
