I was always shooting for a Burzum style. I've recently been doing a lot more, and trying to create my own style. I've always been plagued with the issue of not having a drum set, making my music sound like generic ambeint black metal/DSBM. I have a program with a complex array of synthesizers and a drum machine. It's kind of creating, but it will do for now. I am 15 now, my voice hasn't broken yet, so vocals are a challenge for me. It's been cracking, so that's a good sign. One guy, upon hearing my music thinks I'm like 20 something, so I take that as a compliment for my vocals. The shit I have on YouTube sucks. Enlightened by Darkness is a great song in my opinion, but the sound quality is fucking terrible. I find that Satanic Fog is not only immature sounding, but it dosen't accurately represent my music. There is very little about Satan. I'm more in to history, darkness, philosophy, politics, and death. Death is a primary focus. I write songs about suicide a lot, which makes it seem like DSBM. Depending on how I feel, I may write a song about suicide that is grim all the way- no sign of hope, or I may write a motivational anti suicide song. What I write about really depends on how I feel. I usually only write when I am inspired by something- usually after a walk outside, seeing a picture, reading something etc.
Riff wise, my songs are a bit Burzum like, but much shorter. I am trying to get better at songwriting so I can write more complex, thought out epic type songs. Right now, I am a novice songwriter. Sometimes, I write death metal just for fun.
I have a YouTube channel, but I may remove it due to the shitty quality of the music I lost there. Hopefully, I will be able to create a better one under the name of Cryptidark or something like that. My parents don't let me have online accounts, so I have to be really careful about being secretive with shit like this.
