PunchforPunch
01.24.14 | you sounded like an old dude you're not suited to make emo music bro switch to folk or somethin |
Trebor.
01.24.14 | I have the most emo fucking voice ever I want to show you guys but I'm too embarrassed to scream in my apartment
|
YakNips
01.24.14 | Idk most of these songs aren't really screamo they're just lo-fi of all varieties! And lots of piano |
PunchforPunch
01.24.14 | only heard 30 secs off the first track so idk bout the rest but your vox sounds shitty that's for sure! |
SirDrumsalot
01.24.14 | Why do I get the feeling that you wear ferociously tight pants when I listen to this? |
PunchforPunch
01.24.14 | this aint the new york dolls pops |
GnarlyShillelagh
01.24.14 | what are you gonna change your namr to? |
ABjordanMM
01.24.14 | What did I just listen to. |
Mort.
01.24.14 | "What did I just listen to."

ABjordanMM
01.24.14 | lolz funny. |
Mort.
01.24.14 | yeah cos your comment was so astoundingly original |
drakefan421
01.24.14 | good stuff. |
Mort.
01.24.14 | haha and you're the kid that released that terrible music video.
|
ABjordanMM
01.25.14 | Darn and all this time I thought you liked it. |
Mort.
01.25.14 | oh sorry man, I thought you knew my opinion on it already. well know you can sleep at night without the fear and doubt keeping you awake. |
ABjordanMM
01.25.14 | Nah. All I wanted was your opinion but instead i got spam. You should probably work on that. |
Pheromone
01.25.14 | This is heating up |
Mort.
01.25.14 | you should probably work on your music and videos.
I don't think I even commented on that list |
ABjordanMM
01.25.14 | I am working on my music and videos. That's how you get better sir. |
Mort.
01.25.14 | well you carry on doing that |
Pheromone
01.25.14 | This is chilling down |
Mort.
01.25.14 | nerd is a chill dude who likes music |
ABjordanMM
01.25.14 | I will, thanks. |
PunchforPunch
01.25.14 | damn jordan is a real bro he knows how to take it |
Pheromone
01.25.14 | but not skramz, gotta keep that in mind |
Mort.
01.25.14 | I don't even play that much skramz in plug, its all yak |
YakNips
01.25.14 | guys the intro to the first song is in 7/4 I'm so talented dsafsdfasdf |
Pheromone
01.25.14 | Just kidding man, gotta get myself onto some skramz though. |
ABjordanMM
01.25.14 | "damn jordan is a real bro he knows how to take it"
Not entirely sure what that means. I'm just glad someone has recognized me as a bro : ) |
YakNips
01.25.14 | Start with twinkly skramz, don't wanna go straight into emoviolence and crazy shit |
YakNips
01.25.14 | also "What did I just listen to."
evidently not much of this |
Mort.
01.25.14 | lol no don't start with twinkly emo, just start with the skramz classics and then move on the obscure shit if you end up really liking it as a genre.
twinkly emo is totally different. very little to do with the whole emoviolence/post rock influenced skramz |
ABjordanMM
01.25.14 | Yak, I must admit I didn't give this much of a chance, and I apologize. |
Trebor.
01.25.14 | jam American Football, Sunny Day Real Estate, Mineral, and Empire! Empire! and then use Suis la Lune as a stepping stone into screamo |
DrMaximus
01.25.14 | Definitely don't start with twinkly shit. It'll turn you off from pursuing the genre further. |
Mort.
01.25.14 | yeah and im sorry for sorta jumping at you Bjordan, its just in annoys me when people are rude about another persons music to their face (I never said anything bout ur music on that list and the only reason I was harsh about it here was u insulted my yaknips) many apologies and hugs and emo kisses :(
lets all start an emo band and scream into mics together about our feelings |
Pheromone
01.25.14 | Always been meaning to check out American Football but never got around to it, maybe I'll use this as an excuse. |
Mort.
01.25.14 | "jam American Football, Sunny Day Real Estate, Mineral, and Empire! Empire! and then use Suis la Lune as a stepping stone into scream"
that is actually quite a good idea. |
Trebor.
01.25.14 | If you already jam pop punk then you should start with stuff like Get Up Kids and Promise Ring and Braid and Texas is The Reason
|
StallionMang
01.25.14 | Yeah make Am Foot your first emo album def |
DrMaximus
01.25.14 | Just check the classics. |
Trebor.
01.25.14 | go to the emo all time chart |
Mort.
01.25.14 | yeah and don't do what yak tells everyone to do and listen to loads of obscure skramz that he found on bandcamp |
DrMaximus
01.25.14 | Those are probably shit. :] |
Mort.
01.25.14 | (they usually are but he gets upset when I tell him that) |
ABjordanMM
01.25.14 | I feel bad. I confused yaknips with hepkat and oltnabrick |
YakNips
01.25.14 | damn man no wonder you didn't like me |
ABjordanMM
01.25.14 | Haha my apologizes man. I'm usually not mean but they weren't very cool |
StallionMang
01.25.14 | Soundoff'd |
GmemberKills
01.25.14 | interesting take on "Give me back to the sky" to say the least. i recently learned that on the guitar myself. Can't say im impressed with the vocals but atleast your trying an actually putting your music out there. i'll def keep up with your music an check your other stuff.
Curiously what did you use to record this an what not?
|
YakNips
01.25.14 | Thanks a lot man. Some of it was recorded onto a Flip video camcorder and later transferred onto my computer and then I extracted the audio. Most of it was recorded with a microphone I got at a discount electronics store and mixed with Audacity. The only other thing I used was my phone to record the field recordings on 11-25-13 Part One |
GmemberKills
01.25.14 | No problem, i respect anyone trying to make music. I really dig the little guitar in " A Resolution". You should try an rework that track at some point an add some quiet vocals an atmosphere or other elements to it.
Thats cool, ha i got a old Flip camcorder myself an im familiar with audacity. you definitely went lo-fi.
My only other questions are do you mix the vocals separately? Also Is that a real piano you play? |
laughingman22
01.25.14 | Why is it the final album as yak? |
YakNips
01.25.14 | I'm done with my solo project, I want to collaborate with others. If I ever start another solo project, it will be under a different name and most likely a different style.
also Gmember I'm starting a small tape label, this album will be our first release. And for some songs I mixed the vocals seperately, others I didn't. And yeah that's a real grand piano. |
ABjordanMM
01.25.14 | Yak i remember digging parts of your ambient album thing. |
YakNips
01.25.14 | yeah I got one song from that ambient album thing on here. This is really just a compiliation. But it's the best songs that I've done so I figured I'd put them all into one release since I'm not working on this project anymore |
laughingman22
01.25.14 | The whole thing is really good |
DrMaximus
01.25.14 | Didn't know you dig ambient, Yak, sweet |
YakNips
01.25.14 | yeah I do listen to music that isn't skramz! Really there are only two skramzy songs on here and they only get skramzy for like 1 minute |
XingKing
01.25.14 | Long Live Yak |
Judio!
01.25.14 | Halfway through. Really like it so far, although the 17 minute song was a bit meh. |
sniper
01.25.14 | wow this thread is terrible |
BlacKapes
01.25.14 | this is bad, no offense..... sounds like laptop mic + 1 track live + raw, no effects. was this intentionally lo-fi or did you just say it was lo-fi because of the lack of production? some ideas are good, but christ this is a boring album and generally bad |
YakNips
01.25.14 | It's intentionally lo-fi |
