BandOfCows is the virtual and experimental band formed by guitarist Duckbear. Their music can be any instrument or genre. All instruments are recorded directly into a computer. Mixing does not have priority. Having fun does! Open for collaboration/advice/comments. 

Enjoying all the great music send to the sound cloud by everyone!

Multi instrumentalist from Michigan who enjoys expelling noise from my brain and body. Don't know what kind of sound I'm trying to create but know I'm having fun and love music in all shapes and sounds. Looking to perform and put out a full length LP in the near future. Thanks for the listen.

COMPOSER FOR THE SCREEN
Film, TV, Advertising, Games

▶ http://oliversad.ie ◀

I am a composer, producer and pianist based in Berkshire, UK.

I write beautiful music with live and virtual orchestras, live instrumentalists and vocalists. With studio production quality, I am able to seamlessly integrate recorded parts with modern sound design and electronic parts, and deliver music-sync’ed video demos.

Writing professionally since 2009, my work can be heard in numerous original feature film and short film scores, in adverts for web and tv, and in general web and tv production where licensed from high end music libraries.

Good working relationships with filmmakers are hugely important to me, where I have many years of experience in the spotting-writing-production cycle. With great communication, I always aim to make the director’s work as easy and hassle-free as possible, an ethos which has carried me through many successful projects.

Get in touch if you’re looking for a high quality soundtrack for your next production.

i like that there is no perfect sound. every sound can be made perfect through our own acceptance.

i like to chat gear.

Thanks for reading this and visiting my page.I have a pretty wide selection of styles and genres that I work in, so if you don't like the first track or 2 you hear, give a few more a try and I imagine you'll find something of value in the pile.I always appreciate your thoughts on my music, so please feel free to leave comments. I also accept any kinds of feedback/critique, my art grows better and stronger from it.If you ask me to comment on your track (that is unreleased), be ready for the possibility of 'feedback' - not ego-stroking.I'm not attacking you or trying to embarrass you.I'm seriously trying to help your mix/song reach another level, so if you have thin skin about your art/track/music, you may not want to directly ask me to listen/comment. That said, keep in mind it's based entirely on my opinion/experience only, and that's really not worth that much, but I thought it was fair to say this as a few people have gotten offended when I didn't just put "great track" in their timed comments. Honestly, most of the time I only mention what I really like or make mix suggestions, I can see the beauty in everyone's self expression.

Btw, the term "WIP" means it is a work in progress.  These are the developing tracks that I can use feedback on the most.  
p.s. If you should want a a mp3 of anything, just ask. Don't rip a lousy copy when you can easily get a hi-res version.
As Always, thanks for listening.

You might want to know, what is meant by Cyber Dazz.

It’s an original electronic music combined with spoken word lyrics and analog sounds. The tunes are programmed in song like structures but instead of melodies, harmonies and beats I think more in terms of moods, colours and moves. Each song has got a certain atmosphere, you might hear easy grooving ethnical stuff, mysterious oriental, harsh industrial or even atonal contemporary moods.

But what about the name Cyber Dazz?

Cyber seems to be very clear, something, that is somehow connected with computers. But furthermore I have the idea of creating a viral musical concept. That means the structur of the songs will change and they will appear in a variety of arrangements and remixes with different lyrics and maybe even in vocal versions.
Dazz obviously is derived from Dance and Jazz. But it’s not the stomping Swing of the twenties or the burning Be Bop of the fifties but the cool and lyrical moods Miles Davis created in the sixties which influenced my music. And yes, believe it or not YOU CAN DANCE to Cyber Dazz.

And what about the words?

The lyrics mainly deal with things happening above our heads or before we existed and after we’re gone. Even topics like eternity or infinity appear. Furthermore there are some ideas about time.


Thanks for stopping by!
I am a guitarist/songwriter and share some self-produced stuff here. I do collabs and hope to post some links here soon. Every feedback is appreciated.

Still alive and mostly undamaged. Started out in Texas, and can now be found in Wisconsin. Pay no attention to the Bondo patches, the gray primer on the left rear passenger door, the soiled driver's seat, or the 12 year old air freshener...

OneTwistedHippie is a constantly changing project, with song styles ranging from Hard Alternative Rock to Acoustic Folk Blues.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I've become addicted to drone. Again. I was the kid with his head on the piano, listening to the overtones die away, or pressing his ear to the steel hull of the ferry, enthralled by the sounds it created. I was the kid who formed wordless songs to accompany the sound of train wheels on a long journey, or hummed along with the fan on a hot day.

In the 60s I used to play my 45s on 16, or backwards, or by hand using razor blades as stylii.

I made cut-up tapes on a cheap cassette recorder in the 70s and experimented with reel-to-reel in the 80s. 

Thank you Subotnick, Lygeti, Coltrane, Jimi, Mimaroglu, Eno, Cluster, Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze, Frank Zappa, Pink Floyd, Kraftwerk, Throbbing Gristle...

I am not a musician. I am a scavenger of sounds. I use the most basic software to process those sounds, stretching and filtering until something emerges that makes a joyful noise. Or not...
