Thanks! I was showing this thread to my other band mates. They thought it was kinda cool. It's interesting, we're just messing around, so far 98% seem to think there is something too it. Just wish we could put the longer more epic songs on there.

That's the good stuff, everyone seems to really love those.
Anyone know where we could host them for free?

BTW, add us as friends if you have myspace.
Thank you.

Sweet! I'm glad I found this.

You guys have a great aesthetic, delving into pretty heavy territory while keeping it tasteful. Very trance-like, but you bring in cool rhythms, excellent choice of samples/sounds, and a very smooth electronic arrangement - not to mention fantastic stereo mixing.

Some of it reminds me of the soundscapes of Robert Fripp (and the Fripp-influenced textures of Richard Barbieri's keyboard in Porcupine Tree), combined with the industrial rhythmic intensity of Reznor.

I'd love to see you experiment more with empty space (the power of silence!) and melody (maybe instrumental solos, in the vein of David Gilmore, Adam Jones, or Steve Wilson). The melodies you have now are cool, and I think you could expand them into much more while still keeping with the trance feel and using the same mixture of harmony and dissonance.

You're welcome to quote me.

I compared you to Porcupine Tree because I spend at least 80% of my listening time on them, thus they're the easiest comparison for me to make. NIN and Crimson also occupy a significant amount of my listening time. I think you have a number of stylistic elements in common with all of them (the tasteful combination and application of ambience, melody, heaviness and layering), but I wouldn't say you "sound like them." While my familiarity with the experimental techno genre is limited, seems like you've got your own sound.

Still leaves plenty of room for development, but the fact that I'm listening to your album again now is a testament to its quality.

I'd really like to hear what you come up with next, sounds to me like your current material is but a stepping stone to some fantastic future material.

Techo and industrial are a hit or miss with me personally. Actually, now that i think of it, most music is in general. Usually a miss, i personally can not connect with most of it. Especially techo . . most of it's just crap. Industrial is more my realm. NIN, KMFDM, (early) Lo FiDility Allstars . . that's about it.
I personally draw alot of influence from them. My band members all come from different musical corners. Chris is really into death/heavy metal. James likes a bit of everything. Michaela is a music major, has played in various orchestras and stuff like that . . classical stuff. We just find some common ground.
I'm rambling, sorry . . . um, yeah. Some of that stuff is like two years old. Some of it's really recent. It's an organic process, full of planning, and experemental improvising. It comes together when it comes together.
Anyways, thank you for the kind words. As always, it's nice to hear. I apprichiate it. As i stated earler in the thread, i've been showing this thread to my fellow band mates, they were, as i am, more than a bit floored by the kind words. If you're interested in anything that the future brings bookmark the page, or add us as myspace friends, for the bulletin updates.

Thanks man.

It's not really about commercial recognition. It's about having fun, experimenting pushing the boundries and trying something original. The stuff we've been working on in a serious manner is alot like track #2 from the download. We are trying to push that concept farther, but not loseing the hard hitting riffs and beats. We feel there is alot of potential in that. Not saying everythings gonna sound like that, we are just trying to push that concept farther.

As far as commercial recognition "We define ourselves by how well we hide." It's just a toy to us, we've tried to fly under the radar, and in some fashion we have succeded. Take the new concept radiohead seems to be doing. Give it away free, but accept donations. None of us need the money, we are all pretty well of. So why chase a record deal? When you put borders an boundries up, it sets limits.

No more need for the old empire.

I'd and my bandmates would rather get nothing financially gained out of this toy. And instead be able to have complete and utter creative control, push our limits and yours, and have fun. Than being held down, have limits, being told what to do and having our creativity forced out of us.

I wasn't necessarily talking about a record deal, but it's good to see that you're serious about uninhibited creativity.

There are lots of different approaches a group can take to musical creation. I bet you guys could make a wicked live show out of this stuff.

When you put borders an boundries up, it sets limits.

No more need for the old empire.

I'd and my bandmates would rather get nothing financially gained out of this toy. And instead be able to have complete and utter creative control, push our limits and yours, and have fun. Than being held down, have limits, being told what to do and having our creativity forced out of us.
I wasn't necessarily talking about a record deal, but it's good to see that you're serious about uninhibited creativity.

There are lots of different approaches a group can take to musical creation. I bet you guys could make a wicked live show out of this stuff.

We make good.

We (Micheala) managed to secure exclusive use of a proffesion turntable set for use to use this weekend. Should provide us the opprotunity for some very fun and entertaining noise creation. Delve into something new.

And also, we are experimenting with a small amount of vocals to go with our new turntable noise. Micheala has a very interesting, and from what i understand, very original idea on this new approach. Nahsayin right now, this could be potentially VERY FUCKING COOL! Back later.

Can you sing? And on top of that, we have experimented, nothing just seems to go with our music, but we still try. The idea she had actually kind of worked at least . . .

Well, it's monday . . . and when all i said, done and the tuntables returned last night. All i can say is . . . somehow the oddity we created (still in progress, but the foundation is down) actually sounds, um . . "odd". It turned out, much to everyone's suprise, to surpass all our expectations. Lyrics, vocals, turntables, violin, cello, ambiant noise, some (what the fuck was that?) noise, guitar and drums.

This one is an oddity, that's without a doubt. As soon as it's complete, we are going to splice it in length and make an audio sample to put on the myspace site. I'll get back here as soon as i can with the news the "sample" is done.

Take care.

There is a new song posted to our MySpace site "Sneaky Ninjas". It's not the audio sample promised monday, which is still being worked on, however i am certain you'll like this one. It doesn't disappoint. I promise.

---------------------<< EDIT Forgot to mention we also added a fifth song as well, "SuperDuperHeavyShit" . . yeah. Something or another . . fell like i'm still forgetting something. Oh well, time to sleep. BBL.

I finally got around to downloading the Cd a couple days ago. I do like it. BUt, it does seem to have mostly the same beat through most of it. Just thinking it could be mixed up with a bit more variety. But I do like almost all of the tracks.
Hit the spot while I was drunk the other night....

I'm not sure how you can think the "beat" is the same throughout the album . . .

I think it's mastered too loudly. With the volume on minimum on my PC and the myspace vol set to average, it was almost busting my earphones. Good stuff though.

Good music should always be turned up VERY loudly.

I just felt as if I was moving my head to the same rythym for a long long time.
But it may have changed and I was too focused at playing video games and drinking to notice. It was good don't get me wrong.

And I agree with you on it should be very loud... If someone disagrees then their speakers can't handle the power of truely good music.
