Orchestral Electronica

Been doing music for about 7 years. Started with Guitar but now I do lots of electronic/pro tools stuff. I don't really know what to call my music, but i'd say it's an ambient/industrial/electronic like sound.

My influences are Nine Inch Nails, Tool and A Perfect Circle, Lots of Electronic bands like Massive Attack, Spunkshine and Hybrid, and some metal influences but it usually doesn't enter my writing.

Please Check it out and tell me what you think:

Very talented my friend!

I started following you. I don't make music, but like to listen.

Peace and love

Cool, I'll check it out. I use Moog gear myself and highly recommend it.
I'll get back to you after I get a chance to listen to your goodie.

Just playing. I indeed like all that are on there.

Very good, I'll just keep listening over and over and over and....

Peace and love

Definitely keep making music.

I like the way Guardian ends with the filters and effected tones. I love that soaring hard driving guitar drone that the latest track builds to. Good and spacy, that. The end of this track is very abrupt after having set such a mood. As low as the volume suddenly drops for last part of this song, was it intentional? It is in contrast to the way Guardian kind of floats away.
Nice composition on Barren. It is my favorite.
This music is great; it seizes a certain ambient power, and rocks it . Thank you for sharing.

Great Stuff There! Really nice rhythm/drum tracks. Great sound textures as well.
Are you a Kraftwerk fan as also?

Great potential as a Soundtrack . Thanks for Sharing! S&F

Sounds awesome man. You have a knack for compositional storytelling, very tasteful and pleasing tonal textures and progression. The first 3 influences you mentioned happen to be some of my biggest influences as well. Keep it up!

The newest Track(Self Assured) was actually written before any of the other tracks. I didn't like much of my really old music, it felt too different from my new work, but that one track stood out to me so I put it on my soundcloud.
For the volume drop, I really just wanted to play that guitar tone alone at the end. I like to end some songs abruptly, especially if they get really chaotic with lots of sounds. I guess that's the NIN influence kicking in, I really love how a few songs on The Downward Spiral just end quickly after getting really hard, so I guess that influence shows lol.

If interested, you can listen to some of my older work on here: www.youtube.com...

Thank You

I listen to a lot of Industrial actually. Kraftwerk, Combichrist, Skinny Puppy. I even, dare I say it, listen to Throbbing Gristle now and then.

I never considered those bands to be a big part of my influence though, but now that you mention it I can hear some of it in there.

I will definitely keep it up. I usually only share my music with facebook and close friends, but I am very excited about all of your feedback so far. Hopefully I can get a 6 track EP done sometime soon.


So many of you have taken time to listen and have been very kind with the feedback. I know how easy it is to ignore music due to the sea of music floating out there, so thank you all for checking it out!

On that note, do you guys know any other good forums or sites that I could share my music with?

I use tindeck.com, which has served me well on some songs and not as well on others... but I still like it there and I use it to find new music all the time. I would like to hear your music, but for whatever reason it isn't playing when I try to make it... I am very interested though because "orchestral electronica" is a form that I commonly compose and your derived inspirations are similar to mine which is pretty cool haha

Ah listened to them now, I had a stupid adobe update I was coerced into installing before I could listen. Good stuff though! I wish you would let us download more than just that one though, its pretty chill. Good mixing levels, with bass and reverbs and whatnot. Maybe work on the transitions but I love the sound collaborations you have together. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for listening

I didn't allow downloading because I didn't make my music all that public. I'm still a bit weary mainly because I don't know what tracks will be on my Demo/EP, but I'm perfectly fine with allowing download. The tracks should be downloadable now.
