Aleppo
The dark mood I entered into in the latter half of 2016 has proved productive. This is the second track drawing on that energy, there a couple more in the pipeline. The siege of Aleppo was horrific by any standards. I have some fond memories of the time I was in Syria and its devastating to see what has happened there. https://soundcloud.com/goldrybluszco/aleppo The voices are from EastWest's "Voices of Passion" Guitars OTS Dracus and EastWest Ministry of Rock II Gibson. Bass - OTS Rick Drums - Superior Drumer. Percussion - Storm Drum Organ - Sampletekk Drawbar.

Wow!!!! This is not the kind of music that I am drawn to but I must admit that this one sucked me right in. It has a wonderful big-sky, cinematic sound to it. It doesn't have lyrics to it but it certainly creates a mood. Well done --- very creative.

Thanks the for kind words. I hope to load a third track for this 2016 "negative energy" inspired music this weekend.

That's cool stuff Glyn, very powerful. Really like that Storm Drum and the Emerson-like organ.

I am hearing Fripp, Bruford, Emerson which is all good in my book. Cool stuff Glyn

That's very creative. I can hear the boots marching. Any altiverb going on? That overdriven organ is pretty tasty.
Mix wise, I think the higher end could shine a little more, eq-wise. Just a little, maybe bring the snare up a little louder?
cheers,

This is one of the best things I've heard in a while. It's haunting and thought provoking and gives one a sense of impending doom. This should be used in a documentary and given an Oscar!

I've not been checking out the songs forum as much lately and I "stumbled" across this while listening to Wookiee's new tune.
You certainly have a knack capturing some of that old prog vibe.
cheers

Yeah, that was pretty cool... the juxtaposition of rock guitar/organ/drums with the more "world" feel of the vocals and percussion works well. At times it almost seemed to have a Middle Eastern version of a Native American war chant vibe.
