06.27.13 | Have just realised that I probably picked the worst day to release this, with the new genre hype...oh well |
ViperAces
06.27.13 | yea was just gonna say that haha |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.27.13 | I might just make a new list in a couple of days (but I don't want to seem like Lately and blitz the site incessantly) |
ViperAces
06.27.13 | what genre is it btw |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.27.13 | Hard to say...I consider it 'progressive rock' in a similar vein to Oceansize, but the easiest way to describe it is unusually heavy post-rock with synths here and there |
bowlofsoup
06.27.13 | I like celestial again. It builds up to the second half of the song really well. |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.27.13 | Thanks man, I think that's the only song on the album that I wrote as an outlet for happiness/relaxation rather than angst or frustration (and I don't care how pretentious that sounds) |
bowlofsoup
06.27.13 | Relaxing would be the perfect word for that song. |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.27.13 | If you like that, you might like the first and third songs on the self-titled EP (especially the third) |
bowlofsoup
06.27.13 | I'll definitely check those out. I need more relaxing music in my life. The color swap of my pie chart was a sign. |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.27.13 | Haha, I wish I was in the mood for relaxing music more often |
ZibelPing
06.27.13 | god damn what the fuck did i just listen to? |
IdiotequeCigar
06.27.13 | Who the fuck are these people
Album could have been good but lacked foresight |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.28.13 | Or maybe not |
XingKing
06.28.13 | Bumpan' this for you, Johnny |
XingKing
06.28.13 | In Summer Skies when that melody is just playing and then BOOM!! Love it |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.29.13 | Haha I hoped so much that I'd shock people with that :P |
ViperAces
06.29.13 | never liked post rock but whatever ill download this. synths are awesome |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.29.13 | Thanks man I hope you dig; it's not post-rock in the classic GYBE/Explosions in the Sky sense; I just use a similar sense of structure and have atmospheric builds at the start of a couple of songs |
ViperAces
06.29.13 | never heard these two actually. judging by most of your 5s its gonna be sweet. |

06.29.13 | "I might just make a new list in a couple of days (but I don't want to seem like Lately and blitz the site incessantly"
Haha, no one could compete with Captain (aka lately) when it comes to self promotion.
I'll prob give this a listen later. |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.29.13 | Haha in that case, I should probs advise you to listen to them instead!
@JT that is very true, but I wouldn't like to seem like a pale copy! I can see you digging the first three tracks and Summer Skies/Winter Seas |
ViperAces
06.29.13 | dude, this is really sweet stuff! really enjoyable imo. the drums sound awful tho, in the next time i would use some backing tracks from youtube instead of these shitty electronic dums. |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.29.13 | Cheers dude, I'm glad you enjoyed it! I agree that the drums are the weakest part, I want to improve them a lot for the next release. Youtube tracks sound cool, but I want to remain flexible with how they fit in with the songs |
ViperAces
06.29.13 | what do you use? |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.29.13 | I wrote them on Tux Guitar (free, slightly worse version of Guitar Pro) and then edited them on Logic Pro |
ViperAces
06.29.13 | hmm, i have guitar pro 6 actually, but cba to write drum tracks...
wish i had a drumset |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.29.13 | Writing drums is actually pretty fun once you get started |
ViperAces
06.29.13 | ill try it today. keep on creating bro |
mryrtmrnfoxxxy

Shit everyone's releasing shit this week lol |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.29.13 | Haha, you started it when you dropped your album
Hope you dig :] |
Mister Twister
06.29.13 | Don't mind LightRedFloyd, he's a wangmangler. This seems pretty good, but I've only heard the first song so far. |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.29.13 | The first one is probably the most immediate and hard-hitting; there's a lot more waiting for you |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.30.13 | Bump |
YakNips
06.30.13 | Rump |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.30.13 | Lump |
ViperAces
06.30.13 | somone should review it. and idk want to piss the mods, but there should be a "sputnik made" tag or something, so we could check out all the sputnik-users made music at a page. that would be cool |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.30.13 | That's actually a pretty cool idea; I don't think a tag would be the best way (do you want a sput-made slice of your pie?) but we should defo have some kind of page |
XingKing
06.30.13 | Having a section for Sputuser made music would be sweet as hell. I want it now |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.30.13 | I'll give Jom a shout about it sometime |

JohnnyoftheWell
