Black Sky Refuge
Welcome to BLACK SKY REFUGE Homepage. I am a virtual band only, using software and music samples by Magix to create music (some samples by other companies). I enjoy it, and that's the only reason why I am here.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
started in 2003.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
As a virtual band that does all the dirty work in a darkened computer room, there are no live appearances.
Your musical influences
Into crashing, low-strung guitars, and strong beats. Pink Floyd was a big influence. Experimental electronica is also a strong influence. I grew up on "rockabilly", but there is no genre for that here, so I don't make any of those songs.
What equipment do you use?
gaming computer, 3T HDD'S, 7.1 sound built in, and several music and art programs.
Anything else?
I began making music because my brother (see Max Airplay) came over with a music CD he made himself. The program was by MTV. I was so impressed I also bought the program and amazed myself at what I could create. Later I started buying Magix software, and sample CD's from other vendors.
All my song covers I made myself except for photos. I used Poser and Universe Maker, and Astroscape programs. Postwork was done with PSP. I also used spray cans to do "Reprieve" song cover.
