Here's Update #01 to my blackened deathcore album. Something I'm calling 'THE BLACKENED SUN'. This is a series of songs that experiment with much of contemporary music, and takes an entirely different direction in how blackened deathcore music is written. No matter how many genres I pull influence from, including noise, it still holds that image of being a blackened deathcore album, and it checks off all the boxes of what I find cool in an album.
So here are some of the tracks I've worked on recently that are fun to talk about:
MXVCID is one of these odd tracks that breaks any expectations you have about the genre. Starting off as an ambient track that devolves into an experimental soundscape of sounds, the vocals pull in that Bring Me The Horizon 'Count Your Blessings' style approach. It is a tragic song in terms of themes, and it works so well. I take a lot of inspiration from those song flips like what you find with SZA or Tyler The Creator, and the song decides to do a section flip halfway through. The two songs merge together perfectly, with the ending being a chaotic end that is hard to top.
Stardust is a production of mine that as rough as it currently is, is one I carefully touch. This is the first song I recorded on this album, with me spending weeks on the instrumental production. I'm most likely going to end with this track, because it has some notable Methwitch influenced whistle tone screams. Unless I produce a better guitar tracked song with even better vocals, this song still holds up as one of my favorites. I get really picky on the final song to finish an album, so I want to make sure it ends on the strongest note possible.
THE BLACKENED SUN (Interlude) is where we get into the true chaos that blackened deathcore is known for. This has so many cool blast beats, extremely complex drum fills, and a level of energy that the production has been the hardest nightmare to complete. It is one that requires me to be extremely picky about how I produce over it, and is also one of the few songs with clean vocals of any type. Eventually, these vocals will become a cluster choir and play into the rawness and oddities that underly the track.
This album currently has 8 songs that are mostly done, and I refuse to rush any part of this album
