Industrial Loop

Hey guys here's a new loop I put up with an industrial feel. It's an excerpt of a song I'm working on but it works on its own as a loop as well

Industrial Loop

West of the Sun

New song recorded by me.

West of the Sun

After Dark

This was actually just a test to hear how it sounded up on here in this format - etc. But if you wanted to leave feedback or hear it anyway be my guest. Any comments on EQs and stuff would be especially appreciated it.

Loop I made for your action flash needs:

Aggression Machine Loop

Fail Safe (Nova Mix)

Re-uploaded a song. Felt it was better off in the industrial category. Vote meh.

Circuitry 001 (Loop)

Excerpt from a song I'm working on looped for anyone that wants to use it in a flash or something.

Downtown

Like the Gorillaz? My new song Downtown is inspired heavily by them. Check it out!

Juncture

New catchy dancey industrial electronicish song I did for fun.

L.H.P. Here's a short tune I came up with . Some strong desert vibes going on there but with a cool positive feel to it.

Also got this other guy I uploaded: Politiks this one is for those of you who love some heavy beats.

Politiks

New industrial track from yours truly with some kickass beats.

Reuploaded this: Fail Safe (Rough Edit)

I turned the guitar down a bit and uploaded it to the general rock category because the industrial category doesn't feel very industrial to me and this song is industrial rock so it goes just as well in the rock category.

Fail Safe

New industrial rock track from yours truely. Rate/review please.

the end of the world you knew

new song. rate/review please!

Decrepit (it begins)

Ambient intro for a concept album I'm working on.

While you're at it check out another piece from the album (no vocals yet I am afraid)

Iconoclast (rough mix)

Iconoclast (rough mix)

Might sound a bit repetitive due to lack of vocals but otherwise I like it. Please review.

Punk Man Loop

Basic idea behind this is that it would be my theme if I were a megaman boss. Nothing fancy, whipped it up in an hour or so tonight for fun.

The Cold Grey Sky

An ambient piece I'm pretty proud of. Starts off slow. Enjoy.

Under the Guise of Trees

Short industrial track I kicked out in an hour when I was bored. Nothing fancy. Just for fun. Expect some actually good stuff soon.

Check it out anyway though!

Space Marine

I was feeling in a bit of a DOOM mood and hooked up a sample of the door opening from the game and just went from there. I plan on adding guitar to it at some point but seeing as my guitar is at my buddy's house this will have to do for now.

"Assemblage (NG Edit)" by AldornA

This is a song my industrial rock band AldornA did. The vocals are a guest contribution by a friend of ours, Ed Wagner and the guitar solo at the end is by another friend, Pat Durkin. All music was written by me and all lyrics are written by Ryan Spindler and myself.

This is a shortened version of it due to the file size limit (the full song came out to 4.5MB)
But a full version exists on our band's myspace page.

Octopus

A slow moving sort of proggy instrumental. It builds up slowly so just give it time.

Good Times (Windy City)

Gorillaz inspired. Enough said.

if i'm just sitting there with guitar i'll fiddle around with it until i find something i like or just base it off of a scale.

if i'm playing with reason's sequencer i just mess around with random notes until i hear the one i want to start with and build off of that.

to be perfectly honest i kind of hear what i want to make in my head sometimes and do my best to put it into reality. with my one song Zombie Apocalypse i had a theme in mind. a sort of post apocalyptic zombie idea going on and i wanted it to be jazzy so for the rhythm (bass) i looked up a jazz bass scale and did a simple rhythm, then to compliment that with the one lead you hear in it i basically just played with a scale or something and wrote it to fit the mood.

so long story short i either play with scales, "hear" a song in my head if you will and write that, play notes until i hear something i like, or create a mood and try to make something that suits it.

Zombie Apocalypse

New track. I'm proud of this one. Aside from the intro is has 3 parts to it more or less. Reviews would be cool. Kind of has a weird experimental feel going on. Played alot with samples and whatnot.

Well said, argument over.

word. if you can't be bothered to look for good music then to you, music is virtually dead. good music is not dead by a long shot. hell, it's not even hiding. the mainstream is just so messed up these days that you have to go out and look for the good music instead of just turning on the radio. lil john is shit but there's artists out there like MF DOOM and the like that are still worth a listen. rock? i don't even know where to start with that. you can talk down on metalcore because a lot of it is the same but if you really want to get into a dicussion about good metal there's a lot to talk about there.

Dream Factory

First submission here to newgrounds. I don't do strictly electronica stuff. I'm really all over the place when it comes to writing music but this is a fun song so I figured what the hell - I'd upload it. It's a short instrumental and it was just meant to be simplistic and fun. Kind of reminds me of video game music I suppose but hey, whatever. Just give it a listen.

It depends on what kind of music I'm making. If it's for my band which is industrial stuff it happens a number of ways. Sometimes we'll sit down and have a feel we're going for. One song we wanted something that had a sort of dance feel to it like some of KMFDM's stuff from the symbols album (megalomanical for example) so I laid out a beat that had a real... dance feel to it and then came up with some melodies that went with it that were catchy and remniscent of electronica you'd dance to but had the edgy industrial feel, then enters guitar. Voila. Other times we'll fiddle around with melodies and rhythms on guitar and find one we like and write it down. Then we'll work and build around that. Add the noise, synths, beats, samples, etc. Sometimes one of us will just get stuck and give up on it and pass it to another member of the band andj ust say "work with this." Other times we'll just sit down and go back and forth with the writing. With our music our overall sound is more or less influenced by artists like KMFDM, PIG, NIN, Skinny Puppy, OhGr, Funker Vogt, Schwein, Buck Tick, Puscifer, APC, etc. We also have varying personal influences which kind of bleed into the overall sound. The other guitarist and I write all the music and we each kind of have our own different way of writing.

With one of the purely digital songs I did with Reason I had a specific sound in mind that was a sort of upbeat poppy instrumental that created this kind of light imagery. So I once again started with a beat to sort of have a foundation to work with and took from there and kept adding stuff and deleting stuff until I was satisfied with what I ended up with.

For anything else my personal sound comes from a whole mess of different influences simply because I listen to so much music. I'm really all over the place and my taste is eclectic so I write all kinds of music. Damon Albarn is a pretty big influence of mine, if not at least an inspiration simply because of the different kinds of music he's made with Blur, The Good The Bad And The Queen, and specifically Gorillaz. The latter is a huge influence because of the mashup of different genres of music including hip hop, punk, pop, electronica, dub and reggae.

I might have to get in on this. I just uploaded my first song to newgrounds so it might be a bit before I can upload my entry but I'm in an industrial rock band so this should be a lot of fun for me. ;)
