Some more videos: Vampire and me playing experimental music

Here's some more records, made on 27th, october, 2008 at studio.
Vampire plays his custom made invention - a violin with springs and I play electric bass and do vocals.
Records were made with common camera and the sound turned out not that great, especially considering Vampire's "violin". But anyway.

WARNING: WILD MUSIC!!!

Part I (38.6Mb, avi format)

Part II (31.7 Mb, avi format)

Part III (40.0 Mb, avi format)

Videos. Vampire and me playing our crazy music at studio.

I have recorded a couple of video files of Vampire and me playing absolutely crazy things. That is our usual improvisation style, it varies every time we play. These are quite peaceful and quiet samples of our mad music.
The video files were taken by Canon G9 camera and then compressed for smaller size, appropriate for the internet usage. I personally like the "Part II" the most.

WARNING: WILD MUSIC!!!
Don't get scared too much :)))

Splitting the band and my new precious standup bass


Today I must comment the strange split that happened in our project Ad Lux Tenebrae that lately had more and more strange interweavings inside. Practically, it came to a point when one of old members of Ad Lux Tenebrae said he did not want any bass sound in their music and denied to play with me. Although he did not attend our playings for some last months, but I decided I wouldn't insist so there will be another project we work on together with Vampire, the original member and the founder of Ad Lux Tenebrae. perhaps, the sound will be more "classic" in some way, I mean using instruments like acoustic bass, violin, trumpet, cello and so on, but the same experimental and unusual music.
And I also have really great news: I've got a real standup bass (double bass), at last! I got it all of a sudden, at very low price, but it's an excellent old czech bass. so now in addition to my experiments with cello I will add some spice with the double bass :)
