Some musical encounters are hard to explain...this sonic journey wtih Bogdan and Hadas allows time and space to simply dissolve. "Miraj" is based on the theological grounds representing the prophet’s ascendance to the heavens, the final stage in one’s quest for self, a realization. Sit back, close your eyes, let this musical wonder take you on a journey.

“And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music.” 
― Friedrich Nietzsche

I set the words to chords on piano. Kind of singing along. I recorded the Casio electric piano, then my sawed-body Austin bass guitar, both plugged in directly. Bass played with a pick. (a square corner of my old driver's license)

The organ pretty much follows the piano chords. Two different organ sounds were used for each song on The Black Cat Record. The same Casio.

Vocals. I recorded one, then muted it and recorded another. So that the second vocal wouldn't be an imitation. One vocal is only on the left, and the other is only on the right. 

I recorded electric guitar plugged into a Blackstar amp, direct-in. Same pick used. I had a Lyon Disturbed signature guitar with a kill switch for The Black Cat Record, and a Squire with a whammy bar for Hex. Rhythm guitar was usually done twice, and only on the left or right, like the vocals. I like to think the left headphone is a slightly different album than the right.  Microphone used: Shure SM57.

Words: Riley Robinson
Music: Ryan Bulliner

All songs recorded in my room on an Hp laptop, through a Focusrite interface. On Audacity. One piece at a time. 

No A.I. 
No auto-tune. 
No metronome. 
No samples.
