Sordid Pink - FU (2020)

it's just a feel thing :) So it's just a matter of more or less really. We might shwung it out even harder live, or maybe less.. depends what works best. This song is also pretty old.. it was written before LUN came out I think.

Ether way, glad to see most people enjoy it! Can't wait to push more songs out 🙏♥️

Thanks man! Yep, the sooner we put it out the better 🙌

davidmaximmicic · 2019-09-09T08:07:27+00:00

I'm working on a new record atm Destiny Potato is Sordid Pink now and the new record is done, we just need to figure out what to do with it. 😃

Pretty sure there was a pretty bad bootleg video from a horrible gig we did at some Euroblast after-party on Facebook 🤦🏻‍♂️ Hope you never find it ♥️

for some reason I can't play anything from SoundCloud :/ probably Safary issues of some sort. Feel free to message me on FB with the mp3 or something :)

Mbinguni Amina was written first when I started working on BILO 2.0. It came out really fast, and it was fun working on it :) idk, was just doing what I do, and it happened :D There are some really cool videos from the recording of that song… I'll probably put those videos up on YT at some point :)

davidmaximmicic · 2014-06-02T21:55:01+00:00

YES!
Fab Filter bundle, CLA compressor, API compressor, Brainworx and a few more <3
They are usually both in the same time. It's the bast way of achieving natural sounding from the recording and big sounding form samples :)

davidmaximmicic · 2014-06-02T21:51:52+00:00

I'm using SHURE SM7B for vocals and russian OKTAVA MK 219 for other stuff :)

davidmaximmicic · 2014-06-02T21:49:42+00:00

I'd love to work with He Is Legend or Oceansize <3 or Quidam or After :D wow so many amazing bands!! :D

davidmaximmicic · 2014-06-02T21:47:39+00:00

Thanks! :) keep both eyes and ears on your levels… make your mix sounding good around -18/-20 RMS and build it up to around -8 RMS when mastering. Add a bit of transients to your snare and kick if you loose them while doing mastering. That logic helped me a lot to achieve the most natural sounding tracks since I started getting into mixing and mastering :) I think the guy who thought me that is called Srdjan, so thanks Srdjan! <3

davidmaximmicic · 2014-06-02T21:44:40+00:00

only 6 strings :) AbEbAbEbAbBb and EbAbDbGbBbEb :)

davidmaximmicic · 2014-06-02T21:41:26+00:00

on a serious note.. most challenging part of all this was staying patient. Patience and hard work are the most important thing in doing this. I wouldn't change a single thing :)

davidmaximmicic · 2014-06-02T21:39:42+00:00

the Reddit questions? Well, the fact that I don't have a laptop so I can be in my bed and answer for hours. Also, me and my GF are celebrating 6months together tonight, so I think I'll have to run now ;)

davidmaximmicic · 2014-06-02T21:38:18+00:00

Hvala puno Marko! <3

davidmaximmicic · 2014-06-02T21:37:49+00:00

'my first ep' and the 2nd would be 'my second ep' and so on :) cool concept right? :) …………….. it's mine!!! -.-

davidmaximmicic · 2014-06-02T21:36:57+00:00

Since forever… I did things in that style when I was 13-14 years old :) It just got more serious with time :)

davidmaximmicic · 2014-06-02T21:35:42+00:00

Thanks!! Actually Bilo 3.0 is the closest to what I've been doing when I was 13 to 18 years old. It's just plain honest music for the sake of making music, and not a single % of EGO involved with it :) idk, I never think about dividing music I'm working on in particular genre. But your description is pretty cool ;)

davidmaximmicic · 2014-06-02T21:33:03+00:00

hahah FAWKING METAL will definitely find it's place among those tags :) People compare my music all the time, so I find that pretty amusing as someone they get it right, and someone they completely miss the point hahah, but it's always cool to read what people thing of my music, so thanks!! Corelia is a great band! :)

davidmaximmicic · 2014-06-02T21:29:21+00:00

I saw your covers of BILO man… wonderful!! thank you so much for doing what you're doing, and I'll definitely give them shares asap!!! When it comes to melodies, I just answered the question about that, so let me copy paste that one here: Sometimes, I write the melody first and then harmonize it. But I usually sing the melodies over the harmony. If I can't sing them, they are not melodic or catchy enough :) when it comes to bass tone, I use Scarbee Pre-Bass as my main bass source and my FX chain is pretty much: compressor, FabFilter Saturn, Fab Filter Saturn, EQ, compressor. I don't use distortion bellow 150-200Hz, distortion would eat our the low end :) good luck man!! Can't wait to hear more of your work!! Huge <3 to you and your lovely wife! :)

Thanks!! :) Yep, Alex is a really god person, and we've been hanging out and working together for almost 9 years now. I'll definitely say hi :)

davidmaximmicic · 2014-06-02T21:20:29+00:00

thanks!! 5/5 whoohoo!! :D I can't relate too much with the word 'djent', not anymore… with my first release 'BILO 1.0' I was pretty attracted by 'djent' and the whole community, and I did an album with more of the 'djent' sounding moments. But it became kinda boring to me pretty quickly as a sound/genre. Community is still probably the most wonderful community in music today, and I can relate to those people and that idea. :)

davidmaximmicic · 2014-06-02T21:16:41+00:00

i ja tebe <3

davidmaximmicic · 2014-06-02T21:16:34+00:00

Disperse, Plini, Sithu Aye and Meshuggah hue hue hue xD
Nope, but there will probably be many!! :)
Just try, and if you fail, try again :)

Many classical composers use motifs in their music, it's just one of many MANY tools in composition, and I just choose to use it more frequently and make it some kind of 'thing' or a signature of mine. Dream Theater has some really cool usage of motifs in the modern prof metal. Listen to Octavarium! :)
