Assembly 2012 I’m afraid did not really excite me that much in regards to the quality of the demos, to be completely honest. But at least there was a ton of excitement to be had for the release of Metamorf II, the new Satori demo. Check out the pure awesomeness! 😉
Wow, SinQ’s new track just took my breath away! I’ve been listening to this non-stop since morning… check it out, and if you like it make sure to visit his FB page here for more.
A friend of mine with an awesome taste in both music and visuals just shared this piece of perfection on my Facebook wall. =) The clip totally blew my mind, mainly due to the brilliant effect of the right combination of audio and visuals. The track is called “Fear” by µ-Ziq. I completely love it. This is the fist time I hear the name of this musician, and now I’m surely going to get my hands on his albums.
The video, seems to be a part of the process of building a robot that can simulate emotional responses among other things. I have a feeling that I’ve come across this team’s work before… I have to dig it out of my archives. It’s pretty fascinating work.
Due to the recent collection of hurricanes in my life, both the happy and the sad ones, I hadn’t even found the chance to sit down and listen to the new albums from some of my favourite musicians with any form of an actual focus. Well, today I finally did! Starting with the new album by Aleksi Eeben, called “Various Secret Continents“.
I had listened to single tracks from this album as they were being released, and was very much looking forwards to listening to the outcome as a whole. And the whole is indeed pretty awesome! I like every “Salamander” in there 😉 , but if I were to choose a favourite, it would definitely be the “Sun Salamander”. That track is just… beautiful, I love the melody! I also very much like the “Continental Salamander”, and the bonus track “The Grand Rules” is also very interesting. But again, if you’re checking out the album, which you most certainly should, make sure to listen to all the Salamanders from beginning to the end, in order to experience the full effect. =)
Also, do not forget to read the story of Salamanders here. It’s extremely neat! =) You can download the album from the same page as well. I only wish that the album was available as a CD too! Would have loved to have the story in a CD booklet. =)
Yes, ladies and gentlemen, the long wait is finally over! After years and years and more years of waiting for Genox’s highly anticipated new album, it’s finally here! =D Genox’s new album called “Hourglass” has just been released on the Enough Records netlabel, and you can click here to see the album information and download it.
Seeing how I’m obviously considered pretty biased, I probably should leave you to make up your own mind about the album… but I can’t help mentioning that I think every single track of this album is totally and completely special, and has it’s own unique character.
Of course I’m going to post the album to Verse shortly. Also, make sure you check out Genox’s new Facebook page here. =)
Another Kahvi Collective release has found it’s way to my favourites. =) I came across the album “Glass Marble” by Frederik Behr last week, and I’ve been listening to it quite a lot. [Makes a nice mix with 4mat’s “Decades” somehow!] The very first track called “Alleyways” is my favourite. Check it out!
Few days ago I finally received my copy of 4mat’s new album called “Decades” from Amazon. Yes, physical copy! =)
For the past so many [I don’t even know exactly how long] years I’ve been enjoying 4mat’s music, so when I found out that for the first time he’s releasing physical copies of his album, I figured I absolutely had to have one. =) Amazon.ca doesn’t carry the CD, so as usual it was back to the .com, hence the long wait.
Decadeds Cover. And my current desktop wallpaper.
For the past few days I’ve been looping the album, sometimes on it’s own and sometimes mixed with various Kahvi releases. And I just can’t get enough of it! As the album name suggests, the compilation is such that it really gives you the feeling of listening to the essence of 4mat’s evolving music during the past decades. And as I expected, the tracks are just fabulous! So if you’re a fan of chiptunes, electronic music or generally great music, you’re sure to enjoy this.
If you haven’t already, go get yourself the album. Now. Preferably physical copy. 😉
