Dude, this is some incredible stuff! What kind of software and VST's are you using? I can't seem to make my music anywhere near as good as this... Absolutely incredible! Are you playing all the instruments yourself? Like drums and guitar? Good Mono influences.

wow, man, I really appreciate your praise!
I am using Ableton Live, and well, VST's.. ehm, I don't even know.
I am playing everything except for the drums (which I usually make half a day for one song, putting sample to sample. that is why my drums do not sound as exquisite as I would like them to).

well, I hunt the samples on the internet (hihats, kicks, slaps etc), put them in rhythm etc etc and then just modify the sound with mixing stuff. eh
I've been looking for them forever.. in general, if you're up to mix something, go to www.freesound.org
much good stuff there

hey all,
sooo.. this is my attempt to share some of my music with you. I think it fits this thread..
it's sort of the first EP from 4-5 EP series I will work on later.. it's experimental and abstract, ignore the quality, misconception and my lack of experience. genre - ambient/post-rock/abstract and obviously you will feel my influences.

the Picturesque Episodes - I - The Goddess

I. ..the End of Everything - 11:31
00:00 - Our Craft Burst in the Flames
03:22 - Those Bugs Ate the Carcass of My Ship!
05:28 - The Captain is Captive
09:40 - Insects Dragged Me Far
II. Flight - 09:56
00:00 - Through the Swarm
02:54 - Red Eyes
03:40 - Flight Down the Hive
08:17 - Held in the Citadel of Fear
III. The Goddess - 10:22
00:00 - She Stood Before Me, the Queen
02:10 - As She Consumed Me, the World Blazed in Array
07:05 - Bodiless
08:14 - The Swarm Continued the End

some fresh sounding post/progressive rock from germany.

i hear a lot of oceansize.

definitely a dense sound with bright moments in it.

if anyone could upload a whole album, that would be great

since this is post-rock thread.. oh my god, I had such a great night yesterday. Me and my friend, which is in our band slowattack, went to this studio where two of his friends played with some kinds some emo-whatever (gladly everyone except for those kids were pissed off how uninteresting is that kind of music), so, when those kids left, four of us got guitars, bass and drums and started playing, improvising...

oh my fucking god. best two hours ever. we played something close with sound to ef, explosions in the sky or so, and it was purely instrumental with whole lot of improvisation. I am still deaf today, the day after.. I am so looking forward to having drummer and bassist in our band, slowattack. NEED MOAR.

just decided to share my deepest excitement!

Starz · Jan 24, 2009, 11:12 AM
