GMC Forum _ Uploads _ The Misarchist

Posted by: Trond Vold May 16 2008, 04:15 AM

Here's one i've been working on tonight smile.gif
It's based on a old idea, just spiced up a bit. It's still work in progress though.

But the pianosound sucks.. or.. maybe i should say i suck at piano smile.gif It sounds quite static and emotionless.
The mixing is a bit off too, mostly volume-levels at certain places.
I'm quite pleased with the section after the 2nd verse though, at around 04.30 smile.gif

Any comments or critique?

Thanks smile.gif .. well, i hope nasty is meant as a positive description smile.gif

Posted by: Outlaw2112 May 16 2008, 05:37 AM

yeah, nasty is meant in a positive way.... at least around here when something is nasty or sick it just plain kicks ass.... its a compliment..

Thanks smile.gif
I'm hoping to release a CD whenever i learn/get someone to sing smile.gif .. and maybe a drummer

I'm considering using the word Misarchist as a band-name instead of a songtitle now. It's a good word with meaning smile.gif

I have listend to this about 5 times now.

One possible suggestion, after awhile that top end piano melody starts to drone a little bit. Maybe mix it up a bit by changing voices, possibly a string ensemble or something like that. The line is good but it needs something to break it up.

Maybe keep the same exact line and make a string ensemble, but do it staccato like .....hrm...like doubling the notes...


NOt sure if i am explaining myself well. Doubling the notes and staccto so it sounds like the notes are being bowed i guess is the best way to describe it.

Very nice work again Trond, the piano is definitely the leading-element in that song, and I dig it! smile.gif

Cool song dude

Posted by: UncleSkillet May 17 2008, 10:37 PM

I think this has a lot of potential. Great work Trond. I like the part after the second verse as well. Brakes things up and helps it flow nicely.

It only sounds "static and emotionless" because it is not played by a real person. But it is cool-sounding just the same. smile.gif

I liked the song!!!

Posted by: Vasilije Vukmirovic Jun 30 2010, 07:00 PM

Piano blends with guitar beautifully!

Basically a Misarchist is a person who doesnt believe in authority of anyform. Although they see Government as inherantly evil, although necessary. They dont go as far as an anarchist which will fight for no government, doing anything that is necessary to bring down said government.

A Misarchist will invariably see anarchists as a violent form of authority which goes against their principles.
