THE MOMENT YOU'VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR

NANEY AND SREDNI, TOGETHER AT LAST, HAVE POOLED THEIR IMMENSE MUSICAL TALENTS INTO ONE POOL, LIKE A MUSICAL VOLTRON OR SOMETHING IDK

SO WITHOUT FURTHER ADO

ok soundcloud embeds arent working for me for whatever reason

all kinds of hella tbh

I would not mind having more like this

Yarrun XIX · 2015-01-19 19:39:55

Well done, Sredney.

Interesting synths you got there, Corvo. Bit odd to have the voice panned all the way to the left.

Yarrun XIX · 2015-01-19 19:51:34

And the other reason I'm here.

Posting my final project from my experimental music class last year. It's a graphic score with real graphs in it.

im fucking dying

sunn wolf · 2015-01-20 16:04:07

10/10 perfect job

sunn wolf · 2015-01-20 16:04:13

best new music

Obā-san · 2015-01-20 16:05:32

Lots of compression, FL Studio default samples only, final distination

Obā-san · 2015-01-20 16:09:06

disclaimer: it's not all FL studio defaults, the bass is a simple saw wave thing from 3xOSC i whipped up in like 2 minutes, and there are a few free FX plugins that i downloaded from the interbutts including this odd little beastie

sunn wolf · 2015-01-20 16:10:01

it's beautiful i love it

Obā-san · 2015-01-20 16:13:13

I can't remember where I found/came up with the idea for a bassline that's just a saw w/ automated pitchbends playing the root note in different octaves, but it's a really fun & stupid technique that always gives good Boys Noize vibes

Obā-san · 2015-01-20 16:31:10

Also the billing is slightly inaccurate I did most of it but vash did some editing + general advice and he came up with the chords that show up at the beginning

seriously he is like a fuckin wizard with those things, I've no clue how he does it and I rather wish I did

~chord wizard~

sunn wolf · 2015-01-20 16:51:50

i thought reading about harmony in incredible depth was one of his primary activities, along with reading creepy victorian literature and sleeping

Obā-san · 2015-01-20 16:57:16

Yeah, though he seems to be more into moderately obscure contemporary horror

we talked about that a lot and he read me some cool stuff including this short story about a London councilperson who turns into this weird inert quasi-vampire thing attended by pickpocket children spirit things that foster hate and racial violence in the community

Obā-san · 2015-01-20 17:04:27

you know, normal bedtime stories to read to your SO

Obā-san · 2015-01-20 17:05:40

ALSO the beau might be almost done with his album?

he's paring the track list down some and wrapping up a few tracks and then he's mentioned planning on sending it to Enemies List and putting it on bandcamp

Salix Babylonika · 2015-01-20 17:08:41

I have been in a creative slump lately and don't really know how to get out of it.

Obā-san · 2015-01-20 17:09:59

watch a bunch of youtube tutorials, even if they have nothing to do with the music you want to make

Salix Babylonika · 2015-01-20 17:11:11

I can't sit through those usually.

Salix Babylonika · 2015-01-20 17:11:33

I had a decent song mostly finished but FL Studio won't open the project file for some reason.

Obā-san · 2015-01-20 17:13:54

try importing a whole other song by someone else into Fl and try to duplicate part of it

sunn wolf · 2015-01-20 17:21:46

me and my bf tend to prefer extremely violent iain banks books, roberto bolano, ironically reading bad gay erotica, and sometimes he makes me read this dumb young adult book called wraeththu which is about genderfluid magical edgy teenagers taking over the world i guess??

but yeah exciting to hear vash's album might be done i rly like what ive heard of it

RE creative slumps: go for a long walk, or take some lyrics to a song you've never heard and try to write music for them

Obā-san · 2015-01-20 17:26:16

> tfw you remember that you NEVER FINISHED THE SAVAGE DETECTIVES

wraeththu

things i know about this is that there's an RPG that attracts teen pagan larpfolk types and the books are written by a lady named STORM CONSTANTINE

sunn wolf · 2015-01-20 17:37:20

STORM CONSTANTINE

that certainly is her name

Tachyon · 2015-01-20 17:45:56

it's quite a name

Salix Babylonika · 2015-01-20 17:51:19

I think I have something, actually.

Tre · 2015-01-20 18:05:21

ditto

@MJ: I like it thus far! Sounds like you've got the foundation for a pretty good track. ^_^

Salix Babylonika · 2015-01-21 15:07:37

the track I posted yesterday is finished.

Salix Babylonika · 2015-01-22 17:20:59

thoughts, anyone?

Yarrun XIX · 2015-01-22 18:22:47

I like the rhythm you've got going there. Disorienting in the good way. Thought you were doing some sort of 5/4 time at first.

Corvina · 2015-01-25 00:28:28

I don't know where to go for this musically. Anyone have any ideas?

These are to go with my working lyrics that are here http://pastebin.com/Rgd6mBAR

Corvina · 2015-01-25 02:57:43

Turns out that moving the guitars (besides the one playing arpeggios) all down an octave really helps

Corvina · 2015-01-25 03:03:37

http://vocaroo.com/i/s1CTCVLusWr1 to hear the results

Corvina · 2015-01-25 18:30:37

http://vocaroo.com/i/s1L4QJUhyZxB I got myself out of that rut

Salix Babylonika · 2015-01-26 22:56:21

New track coming.

Fire emoji, etc.

Salix Babylonika · 2015-01-27 00:17:01

"W. Deadeyed"

Corvina · 2015-01-27 02:09:42

http://vocaroo.com/i/s1oMLjPVrj6E been working on the track

Salix Babylonika · 2015-01-30 18:29:24

youuuu should get a soundcloud account so I can actually listen to these

my laptop hates vocaroo for whatever reason

Corvina · 2015-01-31 03:18:40

I have one, but I generally save it for completed tracks. I might just put the demo on there anyway

Corvina · 2015-02-01 02:30:07

https://soundcloud.com/knight-of-swords/last-call done with that track. time to come up with some cover art

Corvina · 2015-02-01 02:40:41

https://knightofswords.bandcamp.com/track/last-call and on bandcamp. don't buy it yet, I haven't set up paypal.

(then again, who would?)

Corvina · 2015-02-01 06:17:06

Please tell me what you think

Corvina · 2015-02-01 09:04:44

http://vocaroo.com/i/s1zU1AYtwmMj I've begun work on a new fragment

Salix Babylonika · 2015-02-01 18:32:04

I don't know what the exact issue is but your microphone sounds like incredibly blown-out.

I don't know much about recording vocals so I don't know how much I could help you there.

I think I added too much gain, which is probably because I don't sing very loudly and the mic isn't very powerful

Corvina · 2015-02-01 19:01:19

http://vocaroo.com/i/s1YUkxOMQNM3 more demos

Corvina · 2015-02-01 22:54:06

http://vocaroo.com/i/s15wDjAeI7d2 and now a verse

Salix Babylonika · 2015-02-01 22:55:42

can you like, edit these into one post? You're kinda flooding the thread.

Corvina · 2015-02-01 23:23:44

sorry. I'll not do this from now on

Yarrun XIX · 2015-02-02 02:46:18

I have done nothing else of value today except work on this. Not hyperbole.
