I wouldn't know for sure what specific genre is, but I would acommodate within the alternative if you ask me Anyways, is it your song? I loved the piano progression along with the strings, and the vocal melody blended really good in it! Great job if it's yours, and if not, well, great job to the owner 1 Quote "I'm wild, I'm free, no man can handle me" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
love deluxe 8,812 Posted October 5, 2021 3 hours ago, Kandidate said: Anyone know what genre this is? =) Thank you in advance. i would say alternative / prog rock. it reminds me of coldplay and kate bush with the piano melody, with a nine inch nails trent reznor style vocal. pretty good! 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you, that is a nice comparison, coldplay/kate bush/trent reznor I just wasn't sure because it has no "beat" so I guess "Alternative" covers it really =) 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BluVelvUnderground 1,754 Posted October 6, 2021 I thought I shared the two latest albums I did here, but I guess I forgot, so I'm gonna do that now, please. Anacortes (ambient/art pop; singer/songwriter) is a 14-track concept album influenced by a vacation to Anacortes, Washington. It's not really about the trip, but a lot of the tourist-y things made me uncomfortable, and I tried to channel that 'feeling' the best I could in songs that revolve around my usual b.s. I've always been interested in the illusion of a line that sits between low and high arts, so that's the main crux of the concept here. It features a couple of cover songs - "Fresh Out the Oven" by Jennifer Lopez, and "Play a Love Song" by The Jaguars. https://open.spotify.com/album/7D2B0shblrRloFu2dMISLx In the Land of Meth and Money (experimental art rock/pop; singer/songwriter; sound collage) is a shorter - if less accessible, according to some - piece where I confronted toxic masculinity and the forms that I still have to work on. It's a bit sarcastic like much of everything I do, but is a middle finger most of all to the types of people I grew up around that held extremely unreasonable and bigoted views (rural Ohio). Also further exploring my thoughts on my gender, more, by being reflective to their ideologies and how they fucked me up more than helped. There's covers of both a contemporary country song (Tim McGraw/Faith Hill's "It's Your Love") and classic ("I'm so Lonesome I Could Cry" by Hank Williams). Also a bunch of samples of interviews, memes, and other things that appealed to what I was trying to express. (Only on Bandcamp at the moment, due to that.) https://littleboyvelvet.bandcamp.com/album/in-the-land-of-meth-and-money 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BluVelvUnderground 1,754 Posted November 19, 2021 HOLDEN my new album is named after the protagonist in 'The Catcher in the Rye'. i'm channeling energies toward toxic masculinity as subject matter. that makes it a weird project, and I have no fucking idea what to say about it, but some of the songs kinda slap, so i'll shut up . 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

alexspears 511 Posted December 20, 2021 my new holiday song is live on almost all streaming platforms and you can find it easily here! it's not inherently about any one holiday even tho it came out a week before christmas. i actually wrote and composed the demo on easter 2018, and forgot it existed until i went through my garageband files and decided to give it the facelift it deserved there are two different mixes-- the sunlight mix, an upbeat and shimmery version, very reminiscent of the songs i made my myspace song. very 2009 vibes and the moonlight version-- a moodier, melancholic twinkly-spacescape version. very spacey vibes,. if you give it a listen (it would mean a lot) let me know which version you prefer!!!! happy holidays friends 0 Quote Here is a link to all streaming services where you can stream my new single, "The Prophecy" Critics are saying: "It's pretty much the best thing ever" - Anthony Fantano and "It would be super cool if you listened to it.

It all felt like a memory. Same with Patience, loved the ambience - I assume the 2 tracks are from the same project? They compliment each other really well. Baby Moonstone really surprised me! You have quite the range when it comes to genres. Damn, Fall has a nice groove to it! I really liked your work! 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blue Jeans is one of my favourites! Also looking for a female vocalist to collaborate with in Summer Wine! HMU if you’re interested https://soundcloud.com/taechun Good stuff! There is something about the quality of your voice that feels like Lana's. Blue Jeans was so good. I also listened to DBJG - made me wish you had some original music out! 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
