Hey guys this is the demo version of the first song which is ready on my band Aria's upcoming EP! Please do not throw tomatoes towards my voice

http://soundcloud.com/cosmin-lupu/aria-meta-demo-version

It's called Meta and it's about not letting yourself be swallowed by technology and forget you are a living being who should enjoy living as one. If you want the lyrics, I can post them (Meta comes from metamorphosis)

WOW! An amazing tune - really catchy yet aggressive - with lots of dynamics. It will be awesome to follow the Aria /Cosmin Lupu saga =)

Wou friend!! This first demo sounds really good! I like your voice. You can reach high notes without losing power and that's great for rock. I like the riffing and the song is catchy so WELL DONE!!

I think it sounds awesome, vocals are very good, in fact I would raise the volume on them a bit more. Well, the final version will be even better. Awesome work man, excellent song!

Awesome song. Congrats C-Maestro

YESSSS!!!!!!! I finally get to hear something full from you guys! I can't wait to hear this through my mixing speakers. Heck, by Christmas you guys might have a final mix by then. But I think this is so awesome - listening through my earbuds. The guitars sounds HUGE! Your voice is equally awesome. I was leading singing yesterday at church. I could feel voice going at the high notes. I sound like John Cooper from Skillet. Who's doing the screaming? It's cool.

Great composition Cosmin, you rock !!!

Damn, Your voice/accent sound like you're from America.

Do you do the growl parts too...?

Really good track, can't wait hear more !!

I love your voice! seriously, it's got that special timbre that makes it easy to recognise, it's not generic, and the song is very well written!,

Can't wait to hear completely produced and sounding huge!

I'm missing a guitar solo though oh come on, just one bar!

Yes, it a very good song Cosmin, really heavy, and your vocal are great ! (no need for tomatoes

Hey guys, thank you!! I'll post some more soon enough

@Daniel: no solos on this one mate, sorry

@WeePee & thefireball: I am only performing the clean vocals, the other guitarist is the screamer

Wow Cosmin ! Great work. I really like the dynamics and the interaction between the different parts. Your singing is very very cool and I agree with Ivan that you should raise the vocals up a bit in the mix,(especially the high register vocals) they're GREAT !!! and could definitely, to my humble opinion, be more upfront!! The sound of the guitars is awesome and ofcourse you, being one of my instructors at GMC, are a great and inspirational player.
If you give this beauty in the hands of a professional mixing and mastering engineer, the song will BLOW THE ROOF OFF !!!

Great man, would love to hear more !!!!

Nico.

Thank you Nico! We shall finish all the demo versions of the songs and then hopefully, re-record everything somewhere outside Romania! Everything you hear in this recording has been tracked, mixed and mastered at home
