Amberwolf's Variety Mix


Amberwolf

Recommended Posts

Let me help you along a journey through your mind into places you have yet to explore, with soundscapes to fill you with otherworldly scenes, from movies that have never yet been made.

 

 

(I was making this list for someone else, and thought perhaps posting it here as well would be ok?  I left out some parts of the post that aren't relevant here.)

 

It is *all* experimental. ;)  There is a spoken-word song "The Beaten Dog"

https://amberwolf.bandcamp.com/track/the-beaten-dog
 though most don't have lyrics they may have vocals or vocalizations.  The "hardest" song there with vocals (English) is probably "Back To The World".

  A couple have Elven vocals,
Behind You Lie Many Unseen

Gareki II (Alternate Version, Cinematic Feel)

 and one has Indian chants:
 Less Like A Whisper

and one has wolves rather than humans doing the "singing"
Ookami no Kari no Yume (Wolf's Dream of the Hunt)
a3202277528_4.jpg

A Peek Over The Wall is "set" in Guri

And this older one features Lauscho on the lead guitar:
Convocation of Lies (feat. Lauscho Remix)

https://amberwolf.bandcamp.com/track/convocation-of-lies-feat-lauscho-remix

 The most recent ones at the top of the https://amberwolf.bandcamp.com page are generally more cinematic, and the older ones at the bottom generally more electronic.   There's a variety of styles / types on there, so if you don't like one try another, and more than a few change styles within the track itself over time, so you can just wait for it to change too....

EDIT:  Gave this one it's own thread

 

Depeche Mode meets...Amberwolf?  

The last track above (still untitled) has now undergone  extensive editing, recomoposition, mix, added vocal tracks, accents, environmental fx and transitions added, reworked percussion, mix, etc.   and is definitely ready for public listening and feedback is desired.  Now  over on bancamp as 073425 000001 100096q 

edit:  072725: 072425 000001 100107r -- Reworked intro, assorted minor edits throughout

You'll like the evolving beat and interplay with lead and the tension building vocals.  :)

Orignal version still over at: https://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=15064964

 


My trusty "AI" image creation tools failed me completely on this one, so I resorted to the ancient paintshop pro 6 to first make very dark one of the oldest of the orignal AI images I had made sometime last year, that didn't make the cut for anything else because it was totally wrong for whate I was doing then, especially since the "wolves" it made for the stage performers were weird versions of humans with sort of screwed up wolf like heads and extra limbs and whatnot.

It's still wrong now, but darkened more than 90%, then erasing all the stuff in the top third, and the sides, leaving just bare outlines so you can't see all the wierdness ;) then I used lots of dodging, burning, selections, hue-to-target, etc, to eventually get the image you see above. So this one has at least a couple of hours of actual art creation in it. If I'd had time I would have done a much better job, but it will be seen at the size above for most viewers looking at the bandcamp page, or even smaller, so the detail didn't really matter. The fullsize version can be seen by clickign on the alburm art whiel on the bandcamp page for the song itself.

When I figure out what to call the present track, :oops: I'll add a title in a similar style at the bottom across the audience, but instead of glowing fire it will be shadow just back-edge-lit by the blue stage lights and fiery Amberwolf sign over the stage. .

I uploaded a couple of short edits of Behind You Lie many Unseen with just the "Elven rock" part, one with a bit of intro from teh previous section, and one without, for the listeners I've had on Bandcamp that the stats show did not listen far enough to hear that section, since it's so totally different from the rest of it.

Nine Thumbnails On A Dark Screen 

first draft, fairly grungy dark piece. 

https://amberwolf.bandcamp.com/track/nine-thumbnails-on-a-screen

The name came from something my brother was saying in an unrelated conversation about something someone else complained about online how all the little thumbnails on the screen were too hard to see, and my brain went somehwere completely different with both screen and thumbnails....you probably wont' like the cover art once I get that done becuase it'll be the other kind of thumbnails and screen. :(


the sound itself was an accident, i was trying to get something setup that would have been in the same vein as [url=https://amberwolf.bandcamp.com/track/the-last-flight]The Last Flight[/url]
but accidentally dropped the bas line and some other bits into a track with grungy distortion fx, and when i hit play it sounded too interesting to  let go of.  so  it's still a WIP, still building the vocalizations track, gotta figure out chored changes, etc, might get longer (only a couple minutes so far), but it's still interesting. Probably a ways to go before it's "done", but feedback would be useful. :)
