Japanese Chess Boxing

This is just a short instrumental demo I finished today. I'll probably use the idea on my next album somewhere down the line. This past year, I've been listening to a lot of Periphery, and they've definitely been a big influence on the material I've been writing lately, as heard in this demo.

Guitar and bass tones: Line 6 Pod Farm 2
Drum samples: Drumsite
DAW: Studio One 2 Artist

Enjoy! And thank you very much for listening. Please stay tuned for more :-)

Planet Noise (Demo)

A re-imagination of a piece from a few years back. I made this as a soundtrack for one of my friends. You can listen to the original track here: https://soundcloud.com/sonnykaiser/a-bluu-dot

Enjoy! And thank you for listening :-)

Bluu Dot

This is a track I've been working on on/off for a few weeks. The beat is actually made from samples of myself - first time I've done anything like that. I also bought my first acoustic guitar not so long ago, so I had to try it out on a recording, and I'm more than satisfied with how it turned out. I've really enjoyed doing the more "soundtrack-y" pieces lately, so there'll probably be a few more of those coming. 

Also, I'm slowly but surely starting to flesh out some ideas for my next album. It's still a long ways away, though.

Enjoy! And thank you for listening :-)

Songs From A Bedroom

Lord

This was among the first couple of songs I wrote for my double album project before abandoning it. It was supposed to be one of the openers, and it's kind of a slow burner in the sense that the first three fourths of the song are really just a long build-up towards the finale. I'm a sucker for these sorts of dynamic climbs. It's a structure that bands like Anathema and Sigur Rós are masters of, and I just find so much emotion in those peaks and valleys of intensity - especially in the final "release". It feels like a journey, and the time it takes to get from point A to point B is an important element of the song.

Lyrics:

This is were the illusion starts
An empty word, a fever dream
Deceiving me like it has done before
It pulls me down into the stream

Drifting away from you (carry me)
Taken by the royal blue (out to sea)

This is were my apprehension stops
I wave goodbye to the dots on the shore
As I float into the endless ocean
I realize I shouldn't fight it anymore

Drifting away from you (carry me)
Taken by the royal blue (out to sea)

Going on another ride (It drags me down)
Driven by the evertide (Into the stream)
