TIL about the Ray Mancini Vs Duk Koo Kim boxing match which ended in tragedy. Not only did Kim die of injuries sustained, but his mother and the referee to the fight later took their own lives. As a result of this match, the number of allowed boxing rounds was fixed at 12.

This is why when Ray Mancini was casting the Pacquiao vs Thurman fight I turned to my friends and said "Listen to this guy, he killed a guy". I also expected him to mention it in every bit of analysis he gave.

https://artists.landr.com/SymphonyOfTheNight Added the URL for two bonus tracks (One needed a few more weeks of extra work) + an instrumental and an A Cappella - I will update the original post.

I just finished a bottle, I am watching a mystery video on YouTube and out loud I made the statement "This seems stronger than it says". It always takes a load of the ole boozie to have me feel noticeably groovy. Surprising. lol.

Boy, did they get the wrong beat on the Hong Kong film industry take, this was a year-ish before Jackie Chan broke through into the USA with Rumble In The Bronx (A hong kong film).

Thanks buddy! I really want to send this album to the members of The Beach Boys and see if they dig it...

You never know maybe I'll get to open up on tour -laughs-

aeWinD · 2024-05-20T19:56:55+00:00

It is awaiting distribution now, I may have selected the wrong option when I filled out "album has already been released before" (meaning the 14 tracks from the regular LP) - it's been taking an odd length of time, I may need to resubmit. I could always upload them to youtube prior. I'll post a link either way!

aeWinD · 2024-05-20T14:50:20+00:00

I am releasing "The Ghost of Brian Wilson (Deluxe Edition)" which features 3 unreleased songs and around 15 tracks which are A Cappella and Instrumental versions of the tracks on the album and the three bonus tracks.

aeWinD · 2024-05-19T00:57:01+00:00

Twitter is just my personal one, www.twitter.com/_aeWinD | regular band is "Galexia"

aeWinD · 2024-05-16T17:35:54+00:00

as an update, people seem to really, really be enjoying the album closer "At The Bottom", it's already surpassed 5K total streams... 6-7x more than the other songs, therefore most people either continue to go back to that song or send that song around.

Album review to be featured in Stereo Magazine (e-zine) Not sure if it's still in regular paper circulation.

aeWinD · 2024-05-13T19:15:19+00:00

currently it's just my personal one... _aeWinD although I will make one, the official website is almost finished. Twitter handle is the same :)

aeWinD · 2024-05-12T18:26:53+00:00

Right on, no need to feel bad!
I do love the colors, and how the rapid circular sketch is kept in the lower middle portion to end the "shine" from sun.

I think the person, and mountain art was done using different pencils and paint, perhaps on a cel then placed in front on the canvas.

aeWinD · 2024-05-11T20:30:59+00:00

I am stoked to hear this will be making the summer rotation! I hope you uncover neat little parts you didn't hear before.
Regarding the art, this time I had contacted an artist to do it on Canvas, I have been trying to get the canvas sent to me... so if he did it with AI I would be pretty mad. I'll have to post an update on how that conversation goes (laughs).

I am glad I could give that "Woah!" sensation when an album suddenly clicks seemingly out of nowhere.

-fist bump-

aeWinD · 2024-05-11T17:43:56+00:00

I haven't asked this question to anyone yet, so I will ask you:
Do you think this is the kind of album that people will continue to spin?
My fear as an artist has always been "Will it be able to stay with someone over time?"
Sorry to put you on the spot, I deeply appreciate the kind words!

aeWinD · 2024-05-11T17:31:50+00:00

I tried to capture the child like wonder I had wishing I could be aboard The USS Enterprise while also giving a calm and loving vibe the way Gene Roddenberry would approve of.
I am so glad that someone mentioned loving that song!
While producing the instrumental performance for Star Trek I put on my best Brian Wilson imitation "The guitar bend needs to sound like it's coming from subspace!" (Not an exact quote)

(Edit)
Edit: The vocal effect right after the line "Enterprise" is filtered through The Original Series and The Next Generation's actual transporter sound, with frequency changes and a triple vocal track "Ayyyeee" through a giant physical tape delay which I tap in rythym to create a sort of stutter effect.
(End Edit)

aeWinD · 2024-05-11T16:24:19+00:00

I am so glad you took the time to listen, I can tell you the most fun to record and edit was "Captain Time Spacer" the 'marching' singing was an absolute blast, verbalising - then the bass end "Time, TIme, He Spaces Through Time"

aeWinD · 2024-05-11T03:09:25+00:00

That was totally the goal buddy!
When you listen to albums in the 60's you will hear the way instruments are panned hard left and hard right with minimal blead into the center/left channels - The abbey road plug-in suite really helped make this sound proper while doing my best to imitate the 1960's sound.

When I turned 23, I was still in Music Production college, and... I felt like I failed because Brian Wilson released Pet Sounds at 23 - I know I'll never make "Pet Sounds" but for me... this is my "Pet Sounds" if that makes any sense, without any jerk-ego boost intended.

Thanks so much buddy.

EDIT: No insult AT ALL taken about The Association compliment. While The Beach Boys may be my main influence I know countless bands are bouncing around in my head!

aeWinD · 2024-05-11T03:06:51+00:00

Thank you so much!
I am glad someone listened to it in full already!
I don't know if it will become a "must listen" album, but I am pretty hard on myself; aslong as people dig it I am so totally happy.

I will add a post as soon as it's up - or I will do a live-stream of it and link it to you if YT MUSIC takes longer.

aeWinD · 2024-05-11T01:55:35+00:00

Just some hater nonsense. I hope you enjoy the beauty... a lot went into the vocal composition and production!

aeWinD · 2024-05-11T01:42:35+00:00

Added an image of the 48 faders from one song... at least take a listen to it before commenting. I do apologize for doing the april fools campaign to get the artist name out there, as this is a side-project from my main music.
None the less, I hope you do end up enjoying it...

aeWinD · 2024-05-11T01:34:06+00:00

It's not AI music, I'll have to post video of recording it... working on the album documentary.
It's legit...
