A God With Horns + Introduction

Post by Forfy »

So, I've seen this forum floating around a few places, finally decided to sign up after seeing the One on Twoism Vol. 5 pop up on the BoCPages Facebook update! By the way, love the sound of that compilation.

Anyway, this is a music thread after all! I've been working with music for.. about 6 years now I think, though to this day I still have yet to hit that point where I'm as moved by my own output as that which I hear on forums such as these, and in music in general. However, I'm not going to stop trying, eventually I'll get to that point I want to be at - hell, I think I'm getting close!

I won't throw a hundred links your way, because as much as I'd like to spread word of my numerous sporadic projects, I think I'll stick to the one that best suits this forum - and that is "A God With Horns". Bonus points to those that get the meaning behind the title.

I worked on the self-titled album longer than I had on any other previous piece of music, and I think the results show. Of course, it's no magnum opus, but it's one of those few things I've made myself that I quite enjoy listening to on a semi-daily basis.

Here is the promo video I made for the album, nothing flash, being my first music vid too. But hopefully it's enjoyed to a degree. The song in question was the second I made in my quest to emulate the soul-moving IDM output of BoC, though the album itself has quite a broader, more complex range than just this song. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0go1snGKTWw

Anyway, I should stop rambling now! Thanks to anyone in advance if you do check out my little slice of this massive pie in the music world, I'd certainly love any critique too. [size=0]And if you ask me nicely enough, I might give you a sneak peak at the full album ;)[/size]

So, that's my "hello world"! I hope to find a bunch more great musicians here as I have elsewhere, and look forward to hanging around. Cheers!

That was quite a first post, my friend. Welcome to the forums! :)

I enjoyed "Here And Now", both the track and video, and I look forward to hearing more from you in the future.

You really only get one chance for a first impression :wink:

Thanks though! Glad you enjoy it. Because a few people are bugging me to, I'm going to be updating my Soundcloud page; and will probably post some snippets of the album there, and some WIP stuff too. I'll link it here of course, once it's up!

Yay!

Once you have an albums-worth of finished material, I highly recommend signing up with Bandcamp, if you haven't done so already. It has a waaaaay better UI and is more centered toward actual musicians making actual music (as opposed to SC's approach of being about all types of "sounds"). Also, the name-your-price download feature is really nice.

Oh I'm already on Bandcamp, used it for the last three or so years. Dunno if the album will be out on Bandcamp though, but we'll certainly see.
