    Check out my DIY Recording Guide!

    Hey guys, I recently posted a free short guide for self-recording with decent quality standards. If you're a musician who wants to record at home and send it over to get mixed by someone else you should check it out! Also, if you're a producer who does online mixing often you might find it...

    This is my first actual playthrough video (the bass you hear is live and the same take from the video, no overdubs or edits), the title track and namesake of my band's debut album.

    I edit pretty well (Slice the Cake and Ryan Harvey can testify), also new artist website

    Ruthless: Cool new death metal band featuring my growls

    Hey guys, funny new layout we have here! So without interfering with my active band Bloodhunter, I started singing in a new band with some friends who asked me to join. We have our first local show this Friday so in order to have something to show before the (punny) show, we recorded two songs...

    Ghost "Ritual" cover, Axe FXII guitars

    Hey dudes, I did a cover with a couple of friends for mixing practice and fun, but also to have some more material to advertise my "backing track" service, so I tried to humanize the drums the best I could. The mix is still lacking keyboards, but the rest is there, this is my first "pre"mix...

    Double Dragon Metal!

    I was barely involved in this, I recorded bass guitar, but everything else was done by my bandmate from Bloodhunter, Fenris. No, that's not his real name, but everyone calls him that for some reason. Have fun!

    Good general Calendar/Deadline app?

    For reminding me specific stuff I need to do, I use Wunderlist, it's awesome and it syncs with the www site, the iphone app and standalone pc app, but that's for personal stuff that I have to remind myself to do everyday, and it's no good for a "calendar" type of use as there's no way to see it...

    Hey guys, check out my new band, influences by Behemoth, Arch Enemy, etc.

    Don't expect anything actually like the influences mentioned though, I'm just not sure how to categorize it. It's extreme metal, and no "core" stuff. This is the first demo, it was done by the guitarist and the singer alone before they gathered a full band so I had nothing to do with it, but I...

Let's leave it at a couple) of years working on and off on this and the band suffering uncountable delays regarding band members, international changes of location, and all out retardedness, we have finally released our first full length.

    AS Forum collaborative playlists on Spotify

    Since I recently decided to jump on the musical paradise that is a premium membership on Spotify, I was thinking maybe we could do some collaborative playlists on different genres so that we can all recommend cool songs and bands to one another? I mean for example, I created a Brutal Death metal...
