Pryapisme Will Be Album Of The Year

by David Lopez Jr.

This may be the album of the year for me ALREADY for our blog’s style of music taste.

The best way to introduce anyone to this band is by stating it’s BTBAM on Acid. Now I know it’s a horrible horrible analogy but it helps you understand the structure of the song flow at least.

Kinship Synthesis is full of melodies that would fit like a glove … Read more

Shameless Self-Promotion

by Dæv Tremblay

In order to celebrate the 100th “like” on our facebook page, as I promised I will brag about my own music, with absolutely no concern about all of you :)

First, I am going to talk about my 8bit music.
Why 8bit? you ask : Because it’s easy to make and doesn’t cost a darn thing. Lazy as I am, this is the perfect medium for me!

All of those are FREE, so don’t hesitate on downloading them :D

Prequel is a bunch of older compositions, not all that good, but some are interesting.
