How very Opeth. I approve! As an aspiring songwriter (or more accurately, a songwriter who aspires to be good at songwriting), this is inspirational. Keep up the good work, man!
You have got skills my friend. Killing it on drums, bass, guitar. Awesome fucking gear. The best amp ever made. Shredding balls on the axe. Good production and engineering skills. Keep it up bro
Blew my mind away knowing it's only one dude doing all this shit! I want to do the same thing. Only with my love recording me as I do drums, electric guitar, and bass. This is really inspiring and I hope you keep it up bro. It's so and super awesome! I love it! :)
Note: This song was a youtube first time experiment. The audio is mixed, but it is "un-mastered." That mic set-up, when heard on a fully completed project sounds even better.
Dude the accoustic parts remind me so much of Opeth's accoustic songs/interludes, especially with the flutes and the strings. The heavy parts are very in the style of Dream. Guess these bands are great influences ? You're very talented, very versatile and the music you write is amazing.
Note: The first 4 minutes of this song are acoustic guitar only and should be skipped if you want to just get to the point. This is not exactly a faced paced youtube culture friendly song!
SHHHHHHH..... You hear that crackling noise in the background? That's me burning my guitar. I clearly need to go play something else. You sir are a very talented dude. Nice work...
some sort of crazy mix between rush, dream theater, and opeth. which is a pretty good mix. vocals would help it be not as repetitive sounding at times. all in all though great job
I think the re occurring parts are right on key with the song.. it does have a stretched out feeling but a great showcase of your talents. I am working on getting my own solo project and definitely have a lot of goals in mind and ideas for music. Im sure its been a long road to get where you are so far, but you've done well..
This is really good, a bit repetitive at times with the acoustic guitar, but I actually think I'll make it the 15 minutes!! haha, it's really friken long, but good.
feaking awesome work, very opeth tone, loved it, keep it up and so will i.
