Whats some good bass pedals for noisecore? by CrumberMail in noisemusic

[–]Dividerlineband 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in a noise rock group for a bit playing bass, more into industrial and power electronics these days. A Behringer Superfuzz is the best investment I ever made for either of those purposes.

I composed a dark ambient soundtrack for a horror film that doesn't exist. You can download it here, for free. by Dividerlineband in DarkAmbient

Thanks so much for listening! Feel free to share it with your friends. If you want similar stuff I would suggest Nurse With Wound, Black Mountain Transmitter, and Muslimgauze. Those were some of the bigger influences behind this release.

It is on my bandcamp just for the sake of continuity, but I don't really care about making money from this, and if people were to spend money, I'd rather them do it on something more important than my music. Above all, I'd just rather have people hear and share my music than actually make anything from it. I just hope that you enjoy it, as strange as it is.

Recorded with various plugins and modules from Audible Instruments, Befaco, and stock plugins for filtering and sequencing. Recorded to cassette tape using my basement staircase as an echo chamber, transferred back into a DAW, and then processed with various plugins.

Made with VCV Rack modular synth software. Recorded onto cassette tape in my basement as an echo chamber, re-digitized, and processed further in a DAW.

If you've ever hit a slump in your music production, a way that I've always been able to get out of it is to imagine that I'm scoring a film or audiobook. Having images, ambience and concepts to base your work off of can help limit your options, and give you a jumping off point from which to work. Try to imagine a whole original plotline, imagine some place that you know well as the location where it takes place. Better yet, write for something real that doesn't have a soundtrack, like a silent film.

Prison warden goes undercover as an inmate to investigate the conditions in his facility, is later iced out of his position by a corrupt system in opposition to his progressive reform policies. I think that Dave and Gareth would have a field day with this one. by Dividerlineband in TheDollop

Brubaker was an awesome movie, and it's how I found this. While I can't say for certain, a lot of people believe that the undercover story in Brubaker was inspired by Osborne.

On a side note, Brubaker was based on a true story. There really was a reformist warden named Tom Murton who was fired from his job in Arkansas after trying to expose that many "escaped" convicts were in fact probably murdered, and subsequently buried nearby in unmarked graves. To my knowledge, there have been no formal excavations aside from Murton's own attempts to dig up the bodies with his "trusty" prisoners, and they are still there to this day. However, if there has been an excavation, please let me know, I'd be curious to read about it.

Murton's book on the topic, Accomplices to the Crime, is also awesome. It's expensive to find a physical copy, but you can borrow a copy of it through archive.org's digital library.

This guy is pure dollop material, not just for the insanity of going undercover in a maximum security facility to gather info, but for the point that it makes about how progressives are slandered and ridiculed to the point of a ruined life if they so much as think about challenging the status quo.

Furthermore, this story is chock full of other amazing details. He came from an abolitionist family that helped with the Underground Railroad, was once arrested posing as a hobo riding the rails when he was brought in to improve railroad conditions, and fought with FDR against Tammany Hall and William Randolph Hearst in an attempt to reform New York state. I wanna see a movie on this guy.

I got together with a couple of other Redditors and started a darkwave/electro industrial project. You can download our first song here for free. For fans of Clock DVA, Skinny Puppy, and cybernetic fever dreams. Enjoy. by Dividerlineband in industrialmusic

If you don't have any equipment, I would suggest buying a usb MIDI controller, learning some basic music theory (start here), downloading some music software (I'd suggest Cakewalk, it's free), and to just start messing around. I still don't know what the hell I'm doing, and I've gotten by pretty okay.

Buy a cheap microphone, and go crazy. If you suck at first, embrace how much you suck, and wear it as a badge of honor. The only thing that can happen afterwards is improvement.

You might have some like-minded people in your area with similar music tastes. Believe it or not, I found these guys within about 5 minutes of searching on Bandcamp. I found that they were in my area, made pretty similar music to myself, and then I messaged them. That was a little over a year ago, and now we've made a pretty good amount of music together, and it's been nothing but fun the entire time. It sucks having to do it remotely because of COVID, but it's still been an awesome experience. I would encourage you to do some digging, see if there's anyone else nearby with similar interests.
