I Am The Dale
A Place Beyond Courage A Place Beyond Courage
A short instrumental with loads of orchestral stuff going on.
The Barriers Broken The Barriers Broken
Ruin Ruin
Heavy track with a melodic chorus, housemate Mike on vocals, full song written by me.
Epiphany Epiphany
This is a full cover of Epiphany by Bad Religion that I did with my housemates Mike (vocals) and Durham (bass), I did guitars, drum programming and recording/mixing.
My Silence My Silence
Really dark and mostly slow, some cool delay on drums beats and stuff, not very guitar focused, piano & strings mostly, all guitar using my new 2nd hand pawn shop find!
Premonition Premonition
This will have vocals but it's just instrumental so far, lyrics are still there though, has some heavy bits and nice bits, just over 6 mins long, hope you like it ;)
Carry Your Cross Carry Your Cross
Cover of the song Carry Your Cross And Ill Carry Mine by Tiamat, all guitars and bass are me, other instruments taken from GP4 file then run through VSTis to make them sound good, vocal melodies done on guitar :)
The Next Episode The Next Episode
Vocals courtesy of Dre and Snoop, fo sho, thought I'd turn it metal, all bass and guitars recorded by me, drums programmed by me, gangsta stylllle
Complete Complete
This is the longest and most ambitious thing I've done, 8:33, strings, synths, guitars, everything, check story for details!
On The Horizon On The Horizon
Reallly laid back, very Buckethead influenced (Electric Tears/Colma), but not as good lead :P All improvised lead as usual
Storm Chaser Storm Chaser
Dunno how to describe this one, slowish thing with synths and guitars and stuff, the mix isn't very good but nevermind.
As You Bleed For Me As You Bleed For Me
This is my most evil thing ever! Drums are now using Halion 2 and sound better, guitars in D standard, synth bass and keys, nice
The Sun Went Down The Sun Went Down
Couple of acoustic tracks with an improv solo as usual, bad recording but I like the idea.
Dissect - Rebuild Dissect - Rebuild
A pretty weird ambient piece I put together, every sound in this is made with my guitar, although a LOT of effects and editting were used. Was all recorded guitar > pedals > mixer (no amp) using a Digitech Grunge for distortion.
So Far Away So Far Away
Kinda grooving instrumental thing, not much special on guitar, just some nice melodies, lots of bass cos it was written after a lecture on drms and bass locking to make a solid groove, so I wanted to try and emphasize that idea.
Hopeful Days Hopeful Days
It has piano, awesome, also it should have strings but my free VST synth sucks, so they sound rubbish, I'll update it sometime, but yeah, slow and sad, guitars in it too.
Hiding In Shadows Hiding In Shadows
Another heavy one, YAY! Kinda repetetive, needs vocals I guess, 2 guitars (Pacifica tuned to Drop C), synth bass, synth drums.
Where Was I? Where Was I?
I actually recorded my acoustic for this one! There are chords and arpeggiated chords on that, chords from my keyboard, then an electric lead over the top (improvised).
Melody in Dmaj Melody in Dmaj
My attempt at a Satch sorta rip-off (listen to Friends for the most obvious), unfortunately I'm not as good as him, but it turned out alright I guess.
Second Death Second Death
This one's the heaviest thing on here, lots of double bass :D it's just guitar and drums, a few riffs and a little tapping part, i like it, although the recording could be clearer, it's tuned to Drop C.
