My Music (Strikes Again)

OMG! You have wine! Even if it is cheap it's wine! If you ever come to England stay away from Lambrini. That is the worst cheap wine in the world EVER!
I was drinking La Jamelles wine last night... strong but nice

I await your response with anticipation.

Wine is le awesome

And I've listened to the stuff several times now... Seems to me you've thought this through pretty well. It's surpringly not very strange to hear chill pop songs and ambient electronic works mixed together like this

But the first thing I noticed, and which kinda bothered me, was that Deep Red was hard to fit in anywhere. It sounded so strange between The Beginning and Neptune's Lament like that. Hehe. I'm not sure how important it is. The rest works pretty well, and I love Deep Red, but it was out of place, sorta. It's the first songs, so it probably was just that ... but I loved Acolyte though.. hadn't heard that one before, and it was the perfect intro for any cd. I'd love to hear that as an intro to an industrial metal album for instance.

Anyways, the songs you've chosen are indeed all good, and I see all the ones I liked already on there, so I've had a good time listening to it.

I'm glad the pop songs fit in well with the electro songs. That was my main concern but i think i got the balance ok.
Deep Red was a very strange song to fit in. I decided on putting it at the beginning for the main reason of it being an important song and wanting people to hear it... if that makes sense?
Did you hear the hidden song on the end? That song is soooooooooooo pop. It even shocked me!

Totally glad you liked it! *does a wee jig*

Don't forget to make your best to hide your face. Only eyes.

AshMcAuliffe · 27-03-2009, 01:25

I just posted a new song called "Cascara."
What do you think?
I really like the dark, quiet bit in the middle and at the end!

I like it a lot. It would sound wicked nice with some harsh vocals!

AshMcAuliffe · 03-04-2009, 10:54

i changed the synth at 48secs as i felt the other didn't work. but yeah it's actually pretty gothic and i really like the quiet bit in the middle and at the end. you should do vocals for it

Hehehe. I should, shouldn't I? Hmm...

Btw, what's the picture you have showing when it plays Cascara in the myspace player? And what/who is Cascara?

AshMcAuliffe · 03-04-2009, 14:00

the picture is one my partner found but cannot remember where. Cascara is spanish for Shell and in Latin means Sacred Bark. It is currently the name for my partners homonculi (poppet) used in magick so the song has mystical and occult references and powers

I see... I looked it up on google and I found out some weed has Cascara in its name. I believe that might be the Sacred Bark thingie, cause it said they used the bark of the plant to make herbal medicine for constipation and stuff. It supposedly had several uses. Didn't see it was used as a drug though :/ We like weird drugs. Hehe.

Anyways, if you really want me to try and do vocals, then if you made lyrics that will fit it, I'd be fucking happy to tryyy at least

It would be my first though, so you'd have to bear with me.

AshMcAuliffe · 04-04-2009, 01:22

coolies... i will have a write of lyrics this weekend and will post them to you and of course, email the track to you too

i've started work on another song tonight but am way too sleepy to finish it

Awesome! Another song? You sure are productive. Hehe. But you have plenty of time to work on the lyrics though, cause I will be leaving for Oslo on tuesday and come back sunday 12th. I'm going to the Inferno Metal Festival, aaaand then I have a semester assignment to write before thursday 17th, but after that I'll force my comrade to fool around with some recording with me

Btw, if you could give some pin-pointers on where you want the lyrics to kick in on the different parts of the song that would be of great help to me

I'll be able to figure something out from there I guess

AshMcAuliffe · 05-04-2009, 19:32

OMG!
New song which i finished today!
"Aradia"
I'm speechless. All i know is that i totally love it!

dradeel · 05-04-2009, 20:09

Hehe, I see what you mean by "dancey"

This do sound a lot happier than the recent songs I've heard from you. In deep contrast to Cascara at least

I just heard I is the Ism for the first time now after hearing Aradia. The effects that kick in at 1:00 sounds just like nintendo/commodore music sound effects

AshMcAuliffe · 05-04-2009, 20:13

tee hee

the commodore 64 is where i got that sound and it worked very well. I Is The Ism was my attempt to make music from hell or at least what i could imagine playing down there

it gives me the fear!
but yeah Aradia really is a quantum leap song

Haha, there you go. I hope you'll do it more often

You haven't thought about playing around with nes trackers to add to your music?
