Milestone

Hello there.

It has been awhile since I last wrote here. There has been many events since then and I`ll try to sum them up.

Firstly, I found some people to play togather and we were having reps for about 2 months. The we had to say bye to the drummer. Then there was a summer session at the university. Then we kinda found another drummer, but still no luck. In the end - nj band and no heavy metal.

Been to a long trip to  St.Petersburg to see Down and Metallica live. Stood in fromnt of the stage at a 10 metres distance and got Rex`s pick home. More than amazing to see people right before you that were playing musing that you had been listening since childhood.

Got some new ideas and some of them you can hear here uploaded. But most of them are still in paper and need woking on.

I`ve been practicing my playing much since and I think not in vain.

So, I call it a milestoe as I feel different. I have reworked my plans on the near future, have changed in my points of view on some subjects and basically become a little different.

And now, refreshed and winged I`ll try not to fail.

News: Still recording of...

Current mood: accomplished

Hello.

I`ve been working on my very first istrumental lately and I do have some results:
  • Entirely rerecorded one of the two main themes.
  • The distortion solos were also rerecorded according to my new tone and skills.
  • The acoustics were equalized according to the advices of some forum mates ;)
  • There is a break near the middle of the track now with some effects and one new solo.
  • Bass patr is partially recorded (but not included ATM)
So, this track became more of a final version after this work.
Reupleaded under the name "Still thinking of...". Enjoy.

Regards, Ash.

Introduction

Current mood: cold

Hello there.

I`d been trying to compose something worthy for about a year by this moment, but I didn`t seem to succeed.

So here are the pieces that I can call tracks so far:

Still thinking of...
   This is a bunch of minor acoustic things wrapped togather. Those were born in the long hours of aimless playing the guitar and thinking of different things... just try to feel the mood.
   The fisrt work ever recorded and mixed. It is still fully composed but needs recording some bass and remastering to match my tone and skill. Some parts need to be rerecorded too, but the overall layout and the sound will remain untouched.

That hot wind
   A short mood figure using a slide with the acoustic. Final variant I suppose.

Life`s ticking
   An illustration of the sadness felt around the time that is lost in vain and lost with no return.
   The drums will change almost entirely, also the guitar parts will be rerecorded according to the new gear, skills and tone and will sound much cleaner and nice I hope.

Well, that is all for now, I`ll try to keep this blogs up to date when some major changes/events occur.

Regards, Ash.
