The Post Your Own Music Thread

New song this month is a collaboration with a local vocalist here in Edinburgh, with a Deep Purple influenced 70s hard rock tune, 24 Hour Breakdown. Should be on all the major digital platforms, though as such for some reason it hasn't turned up on YouTube yet.

 
This is a live recording from my former band named Banished Reality (split in 2002). It was shot in January 1995, me on the left, I was 20 years old back then.
I didn't even know the gig was filmed or a tape existed until yesterday the bass player who lives in New York nowadays sent me the link. Poor quality, but it was definitely a great time.
 
Our guitarist has put out another solo track, so if you like guitar instrumentals then feel free to check it out. Of course we do not recommend committing Geometric Suicide ...


 
Our debut album, Daredevil on the Shore, celebrates its 15th Anniversary today. If you fancy checking out the title track, then here is a video of us on Seacliff Beach in North Berwick, Scotland, with the Bass Rock and Tantallon Castle acting as a backdrop, as we pantomime along to the song.

 
One of our songs just made it onto American radio for the first time. It was picked up by a Seattle based station, against all odds because it's 9 minutes long and none of us are from Seattle.

 
Is the First Friday of the Month again, so we put out a new track, You Don't Know, which can obviously be streamed on all the digital platforms.



 
Here's a song I've been working on for a while. It's essentially a rock ballad, currently instrumental but I'm working with a guy who will hopefully deliver vocals for it. It's a work in progress and I'm looking forward to hear any feedback. Does anything sound out of place, out of balance, any tips on arrangement or production? The guitar solo starting at 2:07 is only a stand-in for demo purposes, I'm gonna record it properly with my amp.

You can check it out here on Dropbox. Thanks for listening!
 
I got many out of place /balance feelings.
First the melody is quite happy something I didn’t expect from the title. Then the pitch of the acoustic guitars are too high and generally high in the mix.
The sound was quite naked in many places like in dire need for more instruments, maybe a flute, bongos or organ.
I liked a lot the part around the solo.

Wow quite a kicker! The basslines are wonderful! Funny video too!
 
I was unaware we had such a thread.

I’m the drummer and backing vocalist of an alternate / surf-punk / 2000s rock band in Western Australia called Lines of Conviction.

Here’s the two lyric videos we’ve released, which I worked hard on making.

In December 2023 we released the 2nd album with our band Gula, Birds of the Apocalypse:

I also took part on 2 fairly recent albums with the instrumental project The Bicycle Repair Band in which I play (guitar and some keys) with a friend and my oldest son (who wrote and plays the majority of the music):

no, he's not that old already, is he?
 
Indeed! Next Monday he will turn 15. He really loves to make music. He's constantly on the keyboard and digital piano.
 
The guitarist in my band, Vantage Point, has just put out a new solo single. Is an instrumental, so if you only like music with vocals, then definitely won't be for you, But if you do enjoy lots of guitar in your hard rock / metal music, then you might quite enjoy.


 
My band Anomos released this video last month. Directed by me.

Our new album is out on all platforms.


Not my type of metal but production sounds great. Fantastic bass sound by the way!
