Like A G6 / Kill Kill METAL Mix / Death Blossoms (iTunes)

[gutarkd]

amazon download voice sounds different its annoying especially since i paid...anything i can do about this?

[SelektionRecords]

@gutarkd the version on the website features the original G6 vocals from the Cataracs. Obviously I can't use the vocals without getting sued so the one on the "for sale" sites were produced with new performers. Is this an issue where the downloaded file is totally screwed up, or you just don't like the version you bought?

[eplayersus]

wow,  this is a good mix.

[SelektionRecords]

@eplayersus thank you. after a longer than expected break I have a new one releasing in a few weeks once the paperwork approval is finished.

[dulin545]

when can i download this thing?!?!?!

[SelektionRecords]

@dulin545 it's on iTunes. and by downloading i'd be very very very very grateful cause it helps cover my costs and make more :)

[asialompat]

this is sickkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk­kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk­kkk

[SelektionRecords]

@asialompat wow. greatly appreciated. i have a new mix coming out in september. it's been a while since i've posted... but these things take forever to record and finish.

[ayemjake]

this is INDUSTRIAL METAL, this is not some screamo shit so stop suggesting stuffs like adding screams or growls to it.  geez srsly!!! -.-

[Petey882573]

All these mix's you've done are beyond awesome, this one is my fav, it feels like amazing metal with a hint of the best possible techno. The instruments are so crisp and powerful. I seriously can't express how much I love this. I hope you continue to keep random screaming and growling out of your music, the way you're doing everything is perfect. Thanks for making this!

[SelektionRecords]

@Petey882573 well holy crap that was an incredibly nice email to get. thank you!!! your note comes at a perfect time cause I was noodling on a guitar at work today and was thinking it's been too long since the last release. been flip'n through the radio for some ideas. if i had to guess, end of july 2011 i should have another release done. don't know what it'll be but your note put the fire under my fingers to get going. :)

[WGSen]

this song plays at the djentleman's club......

[SelektionRecords]

@WGSen seriously? where is the club and when did they start playing the mix? (thx for the info btw).

[XxDjD2oulxX]

best song ever.... :D

[Cruelbeer]

Thats awesome dude!

Love it! :)

[SelektionRecords]

@Cruelbeer thank you very much. hope you found a few of the other mixes on the channel. :)

[ayemjake]

why cant people just appreciate and like the music. this is not screamo fag music. this is industrial metal -.- noobs, metal wannabes

[SelektionRecords]

@ayemjake i'll agree to that. it's like complaining that a country band releases an album of.... country music. thanks for supporting the channel and my mixes. much appreciated. -myke

[Asmodai4]

@mariera96 The screamo you mean = post hardcore. This is no post hardcore song at all. (guitars drums etc) Its more industrial metal or nu metal. Dont mistake music with screams with screamo. Screamo is from the 90s with bands like orchid or satetia. Early post hardcore = at the drive in. New Post hardcore = blessthefall, alesana, We came as romans. Music with screams in it = not called screamo! Remind: A deathcore or metalcore band has screams too!

[ayemjake]

@Asmodai4 lol yeah, this definitely industrial metal. the beat and guitar groove is very much industrial metal.

[RevengerRecords]

What is the guitar Tuning mr .Guitarist? 

[SelektionRecords]

@RevengerRecords if i remember correctly, B... but certain parts of the song where there are key changes i kept a 2nd guitar around tuned to drop C. the trick is to play very lightly since the strings flop around at that low a setting, unless you have one of those super sweet custom pre-setup de-tuned geetars. i don't.

[RevengerRecords]

@SelektionRecords No I dont, I've got Floyd Rose and ZR3 bridges, so it will be challange to Re-Set it to different Tuning :D But I really Appreciate your response. Peace!!!

[SelektionRecords]

@RevengerRecords if the settings i mention don't work let me know and i'll double check against my notes.

[metalhead1704]

10 leute ham ne geschmacksstörung

[SelektionRecords]

@metalhead1704 danke? ich denke.

[boerenbrommer]

i love how ppl bash this guy to add screams, he played the instruments.

if u play metal music it doesn't immediately mean you can scream/growl whatever.

those guys aint even giving him credit

5/5

[SelektionRecords]

@boerenbrommer in the YouTube land of instant-haters and 2 second snark reviews... thank you for the kind words. maybe in my next life i'll inherit the gift of singing like i swallowed a snarled moose. for now, i'll stick to geetar and drums. again, appreciated.

[SelektionRecords]

@mariera96 Unfortunately not my style (i.e. not one I would do well or justice to), although I have seen a few scream-o-rama versions on the YouTubes. The final mix I posted on my website and iTunes is a lot more aggro since I was able to record my own vocals. Either way, thanks for the comment and listening! :)

[arallen]

I'm disappointed that there is no "album" available on iTunes with all these remixes. I love them all! Reminds me of old White Zombie guitars, which I adore!

[SelektionRecords]

@arallen sounds like you're referring to the old White Zombie album "Super Sexy Swingin' Sounds" which was a collection of all the best remixes (of that time). One of my favorite "remix albums". Sadly, it's not easy putting those sort of compilations together when the label is highly non-flexible; these days the amount of work it takes to get clearances for just one (even on my little remix) is insane. Thx for the comment and glad you liked the mix. :)

[MultiNinjaSlayer]

HO snap!

[lwht96]

Holy fucking awesome!

[SelektionRecords]

@putski0 wow. thanks! :) dunno if you had a chance, but there's a new mix for "bass down low" on the channel now. also, starting working on the britney single "hold it against me" today.

[smashups1zn]

you guys are talented, def going places. keep up the great work! :)

[billy42994]

Way to make a horrible song sound fuckin epic!!!!

[SelektionRecords]

@billy42994 wow! thank you very much. i finally uploaded a new song this week. "bass down low". give it a whirl. :)

[nostalgicwithlove]

I'm obsessed with this song.

:D

Do more <3

[SelektionRecords]

@nostalgicwithlove thank you... and i did! i uploaded a remix for "bass down low" 2 days ago. check my 'tube channel or facebook page. :)

[SelektionRecords]

@nostalgicwithlove starting working on the britney single "hold it against me" today.

[MrROFLKNIFE]

If this had vocals it would be killer, like the next Still Fly sort of deal. IMO no other cover has been as good as that one this would be up there though if it had vocals

[SelektionRecords]

@MrROFLKNIFE I don't understand what you mean by "if it had vocals". The version on YouTube has the vocals from FM, and I never got around to posting the final version I did (on iTunes/Amazon) that has my louder recorded vocals. check out the death blossoms website for that remix. Thanks for the compliment though. Much appreciated. Also check out my new mix of "Bass Down Low" that was just posted today.

[LawfulLunchbox]

@MrROFLKNIFE Miss May I's cover of swing is pretty good to

[fear8105]

I Play'd it in Drop C and it sounded perfect. Learned by ear, from the Stem Guitar tool

[SelektionRecords]

@Reesyd070994 oh sorry. yes. drop b. one finger riff MASTERY!

[Reesyd070994]

@SelektionRecords well thats pretty sweet cus im one of the lucky ones who has a pre set up drop b guitar :D

[SelektionRecords]

@Reesyd070994 jerky-pants!!! :)

[Reesyd070994]

@SelektionRecords oooooo Even better! Film yourself playing it? :D

[Reesyd070994]

Any chance of a tab for the guitar parts? :D

[SelektionRecords]

@Reesyd070994 omg that would take me an a few days to knock out. i'm an excellent sheet music reader, but horrrrrific translator. on the website if you download the "stems" file the guitars are available solo'd out. i should just do a video showing all the parts. would take about 5 minutes. hmmmmmm. idea!

[Reesyd070994]

@SelektionRecords Alright man ill head to the website :) Just so I have an idea on figureing it out, what tuning did you use? :)

[SelektionRecords]

@Reesyd070994 if i remember correctly, B. i recall it being a major bitch keeping the guitar in tune every 5 seconds (and i typically tune to C) which means i deviated. the trick is to play very lightly since the strings flop around at that low a setting, unless you have one of those super sweet pre-setup de-tuned guitars. i didn't.

[Reesyd070994]

@SelektionRecords ill hed over to the website then :) What tuning did you use? Just so I know where to start :)

[OverlordRaxusReaper]

youtube.replay

[SelektionRecords]

@OverlordRaxusReaper sweet ass user name you have! anything with "overlord" and i'm on board.

[OverlordRaxusReaper]

@SelektionRecords Haha, thanks! :) I've been wanting to change it but I guess I'll keep it because at least someone likes it lol

[ml07]

wheres the screaming the loud guitar riffs that tear it up, not go with it??

this i just a rock electro version of the song....sorry but im disappointed good job if u wanted everyone to like it.

....but it can always be waaay more hardcore (;

[SelektionRecords]

@ml07 there's no such thing as a remix "everyone" will like. also, there's always a listener out there who'll think something can be harder / louder or faster than the version presented. all one can do is present a song in a different angle than the original and try n' add something of interest. i wasn't attempting to make a screaming grindcore version brujeria / slayer would approve of. there are plenty of scream-core mixes already. not my bag baby. thanks for the comment though.

[Mikeskiboshskiisme]

@ml07 yeah because screaming is SO hardcore. how about we add a scene kid in there?

[manu100291]

\m/

[NaruXHinaXChat]

DAMN maan you should make more.. this would be awsome on the radio insted of the real version!

[SelektionRecords]

@NaruXHinaXChat appreciate that. i'm actually 80% done with another remix. Cataracs "Bass Down Low".

[NaruXHinaXChat]

@SelektionRecords awsome! cant wait to hear that

[crimsonBZD]

can i put this on repeat forever?

[j0eMiru]

@crimsonBZD 0:00 replay button =D  just helpin u out ^^

[ScrimmSphere]

Good Shit.

[MUFCHIGHLANDER]

Best cover iv heard, its faking amazing.

[SelektionRecords]

@MUFCHIGHLANDER i'll assume "fraking" (one of my favorite words... ever)... and thank you very much :)

[landraiderares]

Masterful. An already addictive dance track made even greater with the addition of a generous helping of almighty METAL!

[SelektionRecords]

@landraiderares satan makes every Top40 song better! thank you so much. :)

[ogabogapat]

I acutally can't decide if this or the original is better. Awesome remix

[SelektionRecords]

@ogabogapat pssssst. (i like mine more) and thank you for the kind comment.

[BKellySG]

This is so great! I can't wait to hear more covers like this

[SelektionRecords]

@BKellySG thx. i'm still trying to figure out my next thug victim. not much to choose form out there currently. although kanye does intrigue me.

[rapsucks26]

NICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

[jthbillyboy]

Love This <3 xD! This is Really Good !

[oikonomopoulos21]

Fucking awesome!

[DEATHMETALPYRO]

you need to throw screams and growls into it too not just the regular vocals

[SelektionRecords]

@DEATHMETALPYRO yeah. except that i'm not that amazing of a metal singer and most any type of screaming that would sound remotely cool would tear my wee little vocal chords up. i agree. snarls make everything better.

[metalheadmarti]

@SelektionRecords id do it for you, lol

[SelektionRecords]

@DEATHMETALPYRO i posted all the individual tracks (instrumental, vocals, etc...) on the death blossoms website today. download, tear it up and let me know what you come up with. – myke

[ShocknessFreak]

@DEATHMETALPYRO YESHSHSHSHSSHSHHSHSHSH !!!

[kasadelaphante]

do yu have tabs for this?? i love this version

[SelektionRecords]

@kasadelaphante sadly no. the guitars are me frak'ing around for hours on end recording and trashing a million riffs a minute till i find something that i can bob my head to in full satan mode. i typically make all the files from the remix available so others can tear my version apart. i need to get off my butt this week and get those tracks online.

[kasadelaphante]

@SelektionRecords lol aw damn.. where can i download this?

[SelektionRecords]

@kasadelaphante it's finally available on iTunes and Amazon. appreciated :)

[thedeejaybogus]

@SelektionRecords Where would you put those files? Because I really wanna put scream vocals, if that's okay with you.

[SelektionRecords]

@thedeejaybogus i'll put them on the death blossoms website later tonight.

[thedeejaybogus]

@SelektionRecords Alright, thanks bro[:

[TheChaoticDawn]

This is awesome... Way better than the original....

[SelektionRecords]

@TheChaoticDawn wow. now that's a compliment to make my day. THX!!!

[kissableprincessss]

Where can I download this?

[SelektionRecords]

@kissableprincessss i uploaded it to iTunes and Amazon.

[Boya4all]

holy fuck :D ... n1

[Niho1]

very effin nice

[GPlayerLogan]

I like. VERY SICK MAN

[taylormac1993]

@SelektionRecords would you be interested in tagging some vocals along to this? I would DEFINITLEY do some vox for this and send you the track.

If not, would you plz send me an instrumental track so I can do it myself? XD

Love the track bro keep it up

[SelektionRecords]

@taylormac1993 sure. sounds interesting. send me an email at (thedeathblossoms at gmail dot com) and i'll dig up the instrumental version.

[0gu1tar0]

Woww,, Very Nice Guyz

[o00thunderhawk00o]

now this would be a bit more acceptable to play on the radio..... just a bit. its still pretty bad....jsut have to change the vocals and its perfect.

[imaverick88]

love it, better than the original! keep it up! waiting for more

[nonamefool]

This is intense. New Favorite song!

Good work man, hope to see more stuff like this from you in the future!

[SelektionRecords]

@nonamefool thanks! i think all future covers will be done this heavy. the version on my website and what i uploaded to iTunes is much heavier in the vocal dept. thanks for the comment btw. i'll have my video version done by next week. got a few creepy goth chicks to shake it metal style.

[nonamefool]

@SelektionRecords Awesome. Can't wait for the video! I'll probably be on youtube everyday when I get home hoping the video will be there XD

[PumpedMusic]

Freakin Awesome.

[SelektionRecords]

@PumpedMusic thanks pumped. it's finally up on the iTunes and i'm hoping to have an actual video for this done by the weekend. it was a fun song to do and i'm thinking this will be my direction for future covers. i like the heavier stuff over my previous tunes.

[PumpedMusic]

@SelektionRecords Very cool man! Did you mic all your stuff or did you use software? It's Mixed very well.

[SelektionRecords]

@PumpedMusic the guitars are both direct and mic'd. the bass is direct and the drums are programmed. if i had a real kit on hand i'd mic those. i hate can'd drums but budgets dictate. vocals are mic'd. :P

[PumpedMusic]

@SelektionRecords Sweet man, did you use steven slate drums?

[SelektionRecords]

@PumpedMusic naw. i wish. my G5 is a little too geriatric to support the CPU needs of that awesomeness. the office/studio next door to me had a copy of EZDrummer installed so one saturday i manually sampled a few of the snares/toms & cymbals. everything else is from old bob clearmountain sample CDs and random shit i've collected over the years. it's a very hacked together live kit i've built over the eons. the sounds are available on the deathblossoms website. i share all. :)

[PumpedMusic]

@SelektionRecords Oh for real? That's Legit. Heck yea man i'll check it out. Stay posted after christmas i'll be working on some intense Metal Projects. (Getting Steven Slate Drums and Pod farm Metal pack add on) =

[Justicemaker]

fucking genius, makes me jealous i didnt come up with this xD

great riffs bro

[SelektionRecords]

@Justicemaker wow. thank you so much. best comment yet!

[khxc989]

Very Good. :) Love it

[pieinaboxproductions]

thats fuckin amazing

[SelektionRecords]

@pieinaboxproductions thanks! i'm actually off to my office/studio to finish an alternate version that i can legally put on iTunes/Amazon... thanks for the listen and the kind comment.

[micshia1306]

faved faved faved

awesome awesome

perfect perfect

loved it!!!

u other viewers better love it too!

[KLReviews]

I dont see whats demonic about it sir.

[SelektionRecords]

@KLReviews i was listening to aqua's first album as inspiration. i consider that demonic (ish). that and the budget for the flaming crisco vats to sacrifice scientologist babies just wasn't there. sigh.

[ConnerDrummer]

128 views?????? wtf

[SelektionRecords]

@ConnerDrummer well. technically 129 thanks to your contribution. :P i barely posted this online a few days ago and i'm still figuring the best angle to promote on the youtubes. besides blowing mad wads o' cash via paid ads. which work, but get expensive quick like. ideas?

[ConnerDrummer]

@SelektionRecords i dont know. try posting your videos as responses to the originals. maybe that'll help??

up tp 500 tho, congrats!

[SelektionRecords]

@ConnerDrummer i could. i'm always a little sensitive to anything that smells like spam. so much of youtube and the googles is littered with constant noise it's hard to then become one of the white noise makers in the name of promotion. but. most likely you are right. so far i've stuck with paid youtube ads which when are affordable actually do make a huge difference. i've been asking people who like the mix to post it on their facebook / twitter feeds. not so slimy i guess.

[JustaLittleGeekedUp]

AWESOMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEEEEEEE

[SelektionRecords]

@JustaLittleGeekedUp thanks man. this is my favorite track yet. FM songs translate awesome into guitar land!
