October Falls - Marras VINYL

Erik said:
without tooting my own horn too much, the demo was pretty fucking good and i want to make sure to top that... so yes, i'm taking my time to say the least... i keep scrapping riffs all the fucking time and totally rewriting huge parts of songs, trying different guitar sounds & drum samples etc... but hopefully it's worth it in the end


i would literally kill to be where you are right now in terms of sound engineering/recording knowledge + experience :waah:
 
the funny thing is noone has really heard how things i record today sound, with the new sound engineering knowledge i have (and i'm fuckloads better at guitar too) so... well. i mean the demo was really fucking nekro in regards to recording techniques and it's basically not "produced" or "mixed" at all in the traditional sense.

i guess my "norrskensdrömmar" cover shows a little bit of my newfound engineering/mixing skills but it was pretty quickly done on the other hand
 
sure

i'll send along a cd-r of our newest finished song (for a purpose i will not reveal right now but it has nothing to do with the split) as compensation for all the god damn waiting
 
deal. I'll hook you up with some special Noltem mp3s soon...

(and obviously I won't spread the song around because I'm not a dick hole)

Yeah I hear you, I feel the exact same way about my demo. Basically I had the ENTIRE EP written, now I'm back to about half a song. I'll use 3 or 5 riffs, but this is going to be BETTER.

Well, that's how it works when you search something original. I dunno how the Marras ended up to be, but basically the original plan was to re-record everything from the demo and add few new songs and the result was, that none of the song from the demo (Kaste) was re-recorded and all songs were new and the old songs were released in the way they were recorded on Tuoni-demo.

A lot of work, but that's they way... :)

I also have these metal-demos, that I dunno what to do...some I already published here. I have been re-recording them, but will they ever come out....I have no idea.

well if you did i would just basically kill you

could easily trace it to you since you'd be the only one outside the band to hear it
 
Haha, I would make everything possible to get Erik to sing on some parts, but it seems impossible, as the lyrics are in Finnish. Not that Erik would do those anyway, hehe...
