Download my new abstract/drone EP for drowsy drowning here

[bright lights, big city]

Thank you, Darius! You're new music is always appreciated here.

Honestly, I wasn't feeling this at first, mainly because I'm not the BIGGEST drone fan around. But most of this seems more atmospheric and, as you said, abstract, which I enjoy.  Journey... and Sleeping in the Immortal Forest I didn't really care for, just don't seem like my cup of tea upon first listen. Then the Drifting Monolith came on, and I loved that haunting feeling of it. For me, it was an album changer. The last half is so good! Will give another complete spin this afternoon!


Question about Endless Blooms... I have a demo track called the Majestic Eternal Night. Is that renamed to the Eternal Nightmare? Random, I know, just been organizing my digital music library lately.

thoughts:

well, Sleeping in the Opiate Forest is sort of a filler album with the experiments. Plus you have to have in mind that this album is "live" (no matter how weird does it sound) and was recorded in one take. So it means something for me, I guess.

Yes, the track was renamed!

And the next album coming to the people is, finally, massively, epicly, "Endless Lullabies".
Two or three months and the monolith will be ready.

I am thinking about this album all the time. Everything is drawn, planned, created, storyline is written in my head, I just have to work. A LOT.
And read about various mixing mastering techniques to improve the album.

I have to say though, that only the first Movement (first 4 tracks, demos in the sampler) will be available for free (somehow).
Other two will be available as a digital album through BandCamp with a certain minimum price. I cannot afford to release free music anymore - I guess after ten albums which I released for free I have some sort of a right to expect donations from people

That is all for now.

you know Darius, it's kind of sad for some of us since for example I don't have the ability (In argenitna it's really complex to do it, actually) to use internet money. Still I respect your choice, you have my blessings.

[Deftones-argentina]

Oh, I could get you a ruff demo of the song we are creating that I'd like you to collaborate. take a listen, i'm sure you'll connect to it.

how you record all this in one take is beyond me.

I will somehow solve the equality problem. I will find a way

Well, to be honest, it was quite easy. There are only guitars on one song (Sleeping in the Opiate Forest) - so looping was the way to go; infinite loops and switches. While other songs were played with a keyboard plus lots of manipulation.

I listened to the song, and I believe that we can make a very very nice and a very long song from this.
Be open-minded, hehe, but I'm talking about something like 12+ minutes song, I've got some variations in my head already

that would be nice, our drummer suggested we could turn it into a large song, since he enjoys playing it so much. There's a variation of the "chorus", also. It's cleaner sounding & it could be useful to your work;
TheNightPilot.
   we are recording the drum tracks at the end of february. I hope to have the guitar tracks at the end of march. The bass will have to wait a little more time, our bassist hasn't done his creative job yet (I have a few rough ideas for the bass, though.).

[lostpilot]

hehe, well, the song has to be named "The Nightdiver". It gives so much perspective and emotion

I decided that I am not just yet ready to finish recording "Endless Lullabies" - it is taking forever, perfectionism never helped me anyway.
It is postponed to (probably) summer.


While the works of "Endless Lullabies" are on hold, I will release an album that I had in my mind for a long time. Cosmic-rock with a touch of dark silent drone. Music for dark evenings, shamanism and esoteric dreaming, post-apocalypse, space-traveling, gloomy dusty dark cities and end of times.

diggin the idea of a bass driven tune. It's like thirst, but in the slower vein of your music. Kind of an expansion of your style.
