I want to kick this off with a compilation album from the netlabel moon musiq called Drachenkampf
Each track of this album is dedicated to some kind of snake or dragon from antiquity. Both @rémineur and I have tracks on here. This was a lot of fun to be a part of
This is definitely up there with one of the better compilation albums I have listened to, everything flows good and there's enough variety in the sound to keep the listener enganged.

I made a gothic song with religious undertones

I haven't heard of Aurelio Voltaire before but this is a good mix. The deeper vocals are more appealing. What's the sample from at the end? "You humans are so self-centered...!"

OMG, I'm so glad it's finally out !
Me too! I was getting worried :confused:

It's a friend reading an excerpt from one of my old short stories but pitched down to match the rest of the song, and faint tape rewind effects to add some ambience

Finished the video for this the other day, I guess you'd class it as electronica? I love instrumental synth stuff.

Let me know what you think!

Recorded this tonight

prod/recorded/mixed by me

The lyrics are great. That flute at the end just seals it. Are you making a full version?

Autumn is here!
This is a track that came out pretty quickly, after listening to a song on the radio while shopping, but I loved the feeling of classic vaporwave it got.
Naturally the video came along and here we go!
Enjoy yourself!

What a vibe. I had some Agora synchronicity watching this too since I saw this picture a few minutes ago and thought how funny it would be if a Twilight Zone reboot was made (though paranormal sadbois might not catch on). Then bam, 1:11 in the video has a clip from the exact Twilight Zone episode I was thinking of

Unfortunately they already made a reboot of The Twilight Zone a couple of years ago... aaaaand it wasn't great.
I'm so glad how the track turned out, it has those lovely classic late night lo-fi vibes that made me fell in love with the genre. Very glad you dig it!

Thank you x2. I prefer making little vignettes over full songs so no, I consider this the full version lol. Could use some more polish though, some filtering and a riser or two to break up the repetition.
Love the flute at the end !
And thanks to you as well.

Rémineur - I Arise and Unbuild It Again


Packard Bell 95 メモリー - Amphisbaena

Dude that first track is fuckin awesome. It reminds me of a lot of the minimal techno that Beau Wanzer would do except more digital sounding, if that makes sense lol

I think this one is far better than the last
I call it "ALPINE RESPONSIBILITY CODE IS FOR JERRYS"
Enjoy~

YO Your flow is fucking awesome! Even if the drums aren't that prominent, for some reason this shit got me bumping my head to it, its fuckin awesome bro.

I like the sampling a lot too, I feel like I've heard that song before while searching for samples myself but I can't think of it.

One thing and this isn't a really critique or anything but I wonder what this would sound like with a percussion loop on it, like something in Salsa or Guaguanco where you got Congas, Guiros, Chekere, Agogos, Timbales and shit.

It might give it some more flair but Idk, its pretty good right now.
