My first attempt in recording and mixing. Of course I couldn't replicate Corey Taylor's voice but I still think it's worth sharing. 

All guitars and vocals by myself. No auto-tune, no pitch correct.

Vermillion Pt. 2 (Cover)

For those who can't wait to hear new material: This will feed you without relieving the tension...

Awaiting Downfall will release their first EP on May 31, 2014.
This track ONLY features material from the upcoming CD, however, it sounds completely different from our songs. Excited? So are we.

Defective God Approaching

I recently bought a new audio interface which came with Kontakt 5 and a beautiful library of orchestral strings and brass samples. This tiny bit of music had been written on acoustic guitar, before it turned out to be the first orchestral arrangement I've ever done. I'm not entirely satisfied, but since this is something very new, and thus, innocent, I figured I should share it with you, whom I've neglected for far too long. Feel free to share your thoughts on this one.

This epic piece serves as the unofficial theme for Tal'Dorei's dwarves and all those standing and fighting beside them.

I've tried to turn „The Opening“ (photography by Tobias Zielony, 2005) into music. The title suggests a revelation which I hope to be audible in this short piece. Have fun.

I tried to capture the elegance and mystery surrounding elves with this track. Enter the city of Syngorn (Tal'Dorei).

LIVE-Acoustic-Smell Of Deceit

I recently tried out ableton live 8 and messed around with it. This is just the beginning of me trying to be funny. I noticed that 25 individuals follow me here and this is some sort of 'thank you'. And YES, this is somehow related to my metal band. Guess why ;)

not sure of the title
