A new song, the first try.

I've composed a new song. It's a way weird, I would say. Well, I like it, anyway. Can't define style. Death metal mixed with something like Diamanda Galas' songs. Jazz vocal applied to heavy tunes, my experiments. Here's the first try record - bass and vocal:
Kill Your Christ (first record) (3.60 Mb, ogg format)
And here's one remake I accidentally made playing with SoundForge delay plugins. It's funny:
Kill Your Christ (delay effect) (3.67 Mb, ogg format)
Remark: The files are in ogg format, that is better than mp3 - so I used it.
Important!!! Files are not in plain stream format. This means the server won't send the files to your PC automatically on mouse click. To download the files pick 'save file' in your browser (usually the point from a dropdown menu on right mouse click on a reference), save them somewhere on your disk, then unpack from zip and listen.

The Beginning


well, I've just created the blog. what for? maybe it's some kind of SETI program: if there's some kind of intellect over there, in outer space.
as it's seen from my brief resume in the profile, I'm a bassist. also a programmer, mathematician by education, exactly (thus, bassists with high IQ level exist, despite of all rumors around this :]). programming is all right, but the space I'm living in is mainly death metal and all around it. again, I don't consider death metal something primitive. the thing that have been grasping my attention lately is experimental metal music, like, for instance, mixing such styles as death and jazz. it doesn't seem like loads of materials on this theme on the net. public chats and forums are crowded with weirdos that don't make much sense, in general. maybe it's foolish but I still have hope somewhere there're ppl interested in philosophy and heavy music on the net. I would like to find that rare species.
what about myself? well, I like to play my basses, two ones: Schecter Omen-5 - fretted 5-stringer and Carvin LB75PF, custom fretless. the most opinions I've heard about bass is that it's the background instrument and should go as more simple as possible. well, my point of view is a way different, also as it's different considering the music itself. as it's said in the profile, I play for progressive death metal band Theagony(it's my project, as a fact, that I tried to gather for quite long time) and also play bass for brutal death metal and grind bands. maybe this is not usual for metal player, but I always liked good jazz. so, I don't mind to play it at all. and as far as I like heavy tunes, I try to mix that styles.
I haven't had that good access to the net lately, but try to get online at least sometimes on ICQ and yahoo. so maybe the blog could help find ppl that share the same views.

I created this blog in english, for it's the international language and many ppl can speak it. but I also fluentely speak russian, for it's my native language - so there's no problem contacting me in any of these languages.

this all above is the preview for this blog.
