Alas, you may or may not have waited, you may or may not have been excited, but either way, whether you like it or not, IT is here. At least one person wondered what it was for at least a short amount of time, but finally, here it is. What is it? It is me dumping a giant load of awesomeness on each and every one of your heads. For today, in this very post, I am announcing my participation in not one, not two, but THREE musical projects. That's right, THREE. What are these musical projects? Well, let's head on over to the showcase, and start off by looking at what's behind door numero uno...
ANALOG
Analog is the (working) name of this psychedelic synth-rock duo, in which I will be manning the guitar, the synthesizer, and the drum machine. Inspired by works from acts such as MGMT, The Dead Weather, The Kills, and Radiohead, Analog will (hopefully) have sex with your ears.
DEBUT: TBA
OMLEY
This brings us to door number two, entitled Omley. Omley is a solo project I work on when I'm bored, which focuses on electronic music ranging from house to trance to drum n bass. Produced solely by me (thus making it a solo project), Omley will hopefully make up for my failed venture into the world of Dubstep (Thirteenth ).
Here we are, door number three, the last of the batch of soon to be musical delights that I have dumped onto you today. No, the name of this project isn't "Untitled", it simply does not have a name yet. This garage rock trio, featuring yours truly on the guitar, makes some nice sounding noises that can be classified as alt. rock, with punk and blues influence. A full EP has been written for this yet titled act... but we're still looking for a permanent singer.
DEBUT: Late 2011 / Early 2012 / Whenever we find a singer
Well, that's it. Hopefully you weren't too disappointed (hopefully you weren't disappointed at all!) Look for these three acts in the future, somewhere famous musicians would be.
As some of you may now, today was "rapture day". At first I was kinda worried, the world coming to an end at all, but it didn't turn out half bad. I got a good night sleep, woke up at 9:00 this morning, and lounged around listening to music. Then, my dog ran away, so I got worried, as it might be the first sign, but then I found him. Then I went to the grocery store, and cookies were on sale, so I bought some. All in all, today was actually a pretty good day. I think we should have a rapture more often.
How did the rapture treat you guys? I hope none of you are dead!
I just realized that 4 days ago was my one year anniversary of being on UG. So, I've decided to throw a party, right here. Everyone is invited, and it's Bring Your Own Beer. Woot! Party time!
I have started a darkstep project (if you don't know what darkstep is, think dubstep's evil twin) called Thirteenth. I've got one song up, and I just thought I'd do some shameless self-promotion.
There you go, shameless and shallow, but it needs to be done. Anyways, I just thought I'd put this up so you guys know why I've been in silence lately (and lets just say that Thirteenth may not be the only new project to come this year... *foreshadowing*). So, check it out if you like that kind of music, and if you like what you hear in Thirteenth, become a fan, and there will be more to come.
A close friend of mine is starting what he calls a "one-man electronic project" (basically him making electronic music), so to help him out, since we are close friends, I decide to give him this link on this blog. He's an independent musician trying electronic music for the first time, and I hope you can help him out by checking out that link. He can take criticism, so feel free to help him out in that sense (I have minimal experience with the genre myself, so I can't really help him out).
