Peripheral - Neomorpheus

10th Feb 2019 20:33 - 7 years ago
Description : Decided to finish a track I had started over a year ago. I didn't have much of this song complete, just the rhythm track. So I added a bass track, drums and the solo. Was trying to do something in the melodic djent style of Periphery.

If you have time take a listen and give Neomorpheus some feedback.

Great track and production. Guitar work is excellent. This has a LOT of potential. I'm going to be a little harsh to help take it to another level. To get up there with Messugah the middle and end repeats far too much to be called progressive as it's all in 8/8. I'd play with doublet rhythms or doublet offbeats, or get the bass to pop twang on offbeats. My profile here is hiphop :-D but IRL my projects are more akin to Mr Bungle, Sikth, Isis and Tool

Hey helruna, thanks for the listen and taking time to drop a comment. I much appreciate it.

I totally agree with your assessment in that there is probably far too much repetition. I really had no intention of comparing this to anything like Meshuggah, Tool etc., its far too melodic and as you mentioned too straight forward with time signature. Which is why I made mention of Periphery in my description. I guess I could have taken more time to develop the structure and create more new content but in this case I merely wanted to take some old material and invest the least amount of time to put something half way decent together. I'm not really into this style so much which is probably the reason I failed to finish the song originally.

I certainly appreciate you weighing in on this and suggest you check out some of my other tracks. I do have a cover track of Meshuggah and a good variety of other genre stuff. I'm interested in checking out your music too, which I will definitely do.
Danke

Huhhh Neo!

Fantastic piece of music here...I was a big fan of Meshuggah...destroy, erase, improve was a definite listen (a must listen)...am I right, that they were one of the first pioneers of this djent stg???
your guitar is absolute impressive as always (as your knowledge)...
outstanding song...

handshake, fav, dl, Danke

You got it bro. Although Destroy Erase Improve came before the guys switched to the 8 strings (which locked down their current sound and unleashed the low register assult era of djent upon the world), this album was certainly significant. Hagstrom had just joined the band and they ended up mashing so many sub genres together the fusion effect led them to create what would become their quintessential sound. They began the development of distinctly more complex songs and debuted the polymetered and polyrhythm song structures which would provide the impetus to their later creation of mathcore and djent.

Some scientists have recently therorized that the release of Destroy Erase Improve and songs like Future Breed Machine were so heavy in violent metaphysical entropy they might have actually ripped a hole in the space time continuum, creating portals to infinite multiverses. Could this be the reason for the vast increase in UFO activity since 1995? Ancient Alien theorists say, yes.

Thanks for the comments danke, very much appreciated.

I like the tone on the guitar. Are you playing that? Sounds like the Odin plugin. Either way sounds great!

Neomorpheus replied 14th Feb 2019 - 7 years ago
Hey jay, nope not the Odin, played on a real guitar. But the Odin could certainly do most of this and probably sound better. Its a real amazing virtual guitar vst. I actually have Shreddage and have made a couple of tracks with it but haven't really invested enough time in it to produce to my satisfaction. The guitar vst's have come a long way though and I'm impressed with a lot of what some people are doing with them. My Looperman bro, ValveDriver has several tracks made with virtual guitar and they are amazing. Check him out if you get a chance. The Odin is one of the best Virtual Guitar vst's I have heard for Metal guitar sound and realism with features for articulation, humanization, key switching etc. It does a real convincing job with rhythms but when it comes to soloing I still think its just not there yet.

I have a lot of material that I've recorded just messing around and that I always intend to do something with. Some might get used, most probably wont.

Description : Deep beneath this house stand forges no hand has lit in decades, their iron cold, their bellows collapsed to dust. Yet I return to them still, tracing my fingers along soot that remembers heat long after the fire forgot how to burn.

Every wound I ever shaped, every choice hammered white-hot in some forgotten year, still holds its form within me, cold now, but never truly extinguished. Strike the right anvil, and even ash remembers how to spark.
