Another song! It seems that once I got past the initial block, the floodgates burst open. I literally can’t stop making music, especially this style of music. I love working on “projects” and this “album” is definitely one. I like what I have going on right now. I am planning on making 12 songs of this stuff, but we’ll see if I change my mind and end up with less songs.

But regardless, here’s the heaviest song of all the three so far. I call it “Heartroots” and all it lacks is a distorted guitar and it’d be pure metal. It’s getting to be rather intense. The previous song I made “Phonetic” was already much heavier than the first “Slacker”. I personally prefer the heavier stuff, but I suppose the slowness of “Slacker” gives a nice breather.

Anyway! About this song. It was made with the same “template” that I used for all the other songs, and largerly with the same synths. I used mostly Kore and Razor. I love Razor, it’s a great synth to program. Even though I sometimes end up being lazy and using just a preset. Sorry about that. No presets in this song, however.

So, I couldn’t help myself. I made another song. In a… er, very short time.

This one is much better in my opinion and I definitely played it much tighter. It’s also much more typically my style. The “template” is more or less the same as the previous song. I did add a drum machine to get some more bass out of the kick. This one seemed to require some more oomph. It’s also much more “danceable” song than the previous one.

All in all, it’s just like the previous one but has 95.6% more of me in it. And I retired my own blog audio player, here’s Bandcamp’s embedded one:

God damn french, I hate your xenophobia, but god damn I love your experimental metal bands. Wonderful bastards. That said, this is a bit like “lite” version of Whourkr which is actually truly great, whereas this might be great in future.

Solar Fields: “The Road To Nothingness” from 2009′s “Movements”

Easily the best song on the album, by a large margin. Even taking that in account, it’s still a pretty good ambient/chillout album. It’s also featured in the indie platform game “Capsized”, available on steam.

Boom! The song I promised. Took me hour and twenty minutes. Naturally, I didn’t do full length. It’s only 2 minutes and some more. It’s pretty simple, d’oh, and I went all retro. I’m calling it “Boom!” just because it was the first word to come to mind when I started the project. It’s done 90% with the Razor synth of Native Instruments. It’s a very cool synth. I nabbed the drum mix from my Project Mayhem, though, so there was a little shortcut there.

Oh, yeah. No idea about the mix quality. I did the song with headphones on as my Significant Other is still sleeping. So, yeah… Hopefully it’s okay.

I updated the mix a little. I didn’t change any big stuffs, as I don’t feel the need to be absolutely perfect with this little tune. That said, I toned down the lead a little and bass up a tad. Also, added a download link for those who are in to this little ditty. I’ll add download links to those songs that I feel are somewhat done. This one is done because it was a quick song, and I definitely won’t be finishing it — unless someone feels this would work in their game or something.
