As an engineer and a bit of a producer I never mean to be cruel, but even I have learned that I need to listen to outside observers to get perspective. In my photography I always ask my wife to critique my calendar before publishing it. The shots I love she is usually cool to and the ones she loves I find Meh. But I trust her vision more because she's not so close to it. The question is...what do you do with the information. Hopefully you put it to good use.

Good luck and keep producing.

That reminds me of this...I love these.

BaldJean, definitely not! We do like to hear what people's thoughts are though! Smile We were actually labeled eclectic prog by progarchives about 10 years ago after about 1 year of waiting for an answer when we released our first album "The EP" about 10 years ago. We were getting bounced around from forum to forum as nobody had it easy to classify our music, so after all these years later this new album we just released is again a bit hard to classify which is fun for us. Wink It's cool to hear new opinions!

Korg Prog could be a possibility. We use the korg alot as a backbone or bass for songs but we also use the omnisphere or other synth for that as well Big smile Here is the 2nd song off our newest album if you'd like to check it out. Quite different than Color of Lightning! Overall, our goal is to sound different from song to song, hopefully keeping the listener interested. Almost like a never ending journey!

Hi Moshkito, thanks for your reply! For us, genre is not that important but we love to hear what other people's thoughts are! Big smile This particular song is composed the way it is for a reason and that's to push the boundaries a bit. At least that's what the hope was Smile

Korg Prog ?  Ermm

Sounds nice, but a bit hesitating and unfinished: some interesting ideas that deserve to be worked out to give them a bit more direction. But I don't think this snippet is enough to determine a genre. So, keep them coming!

Hi,

I know this might not sound cool, and I will apologize ahead of time ... but, out of curiosity, what does it matter where the music fits in terms of genre ... are you suggesting that you will not listen to anything unless it is qualified/quantified as being a part of GenreX?

Embarrassed
Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

Don't know about the genre...but I do like that Fender Strat.

And it somewhat reminds me of zombie movie soundtracks, like Fabio Frizzi's Zombi 2 and is Goblinesque a la the film Zombi. I mean I know the band Zombi has a Goblin and such inspiration. It has some of that late 70s through 80s horror soundtrack synth vibe. So basically it sounds zombie related to me. I'd like to say that it's on the synth horror side but without much horror.

I could imagine this played while the intended victims move away from slow-moving, plodding zombies, the protagonists stop, look back, the zombies follow (yeah, got a movie scene playing in the head as I listen to this).

It's more Post-Zombie than Zombiecore though.
