Dark electronic/rock/alternative/industrial - Rustling Silk

"Not quite alternative, not quite electronic, not quite adult contemporary and not quite progressive rock. Rustling Silk is more of a fusion of these genres to bring together a painted landscape using a plethora of colors from differing palates. For the duo of Bluenevus and Evansorchid, its all about the layers. Listen to the rich assortment of instrumentation from an Aphex Twin style glitch to the retro UK guitar fuzz of yesteryear brought together in Rustling's inimitable style."

http://www.distinguishedrecordings.com click on Rustling Silk link,

This is a really cool album I have just been working on, if you like darker edged rock/electronic/alternative hybrid music, this one has elements of Massive Attack, Smashmouth, New Order, Sonic Youth, Aphex Twin etc. I was involved in remixing a couple of tracks and mastering the album. Listen to the excerpts and available as digital download at Itunes, Amazon, emusic etc.

Oh Jeez - I forgot we're all too lazy assed here to comment on music, especially if it's not belgian tarnce or scouser donk. I hate that the Cubase forum gave me lots of feedback and I got zip here, I regard this forum as the best with the best people.

Here are some of the comments from the Cubase forum...

Since nobody here can be bothered to comment, I'll give you some reviews from the Cubase forum (based on excerpts from 1. Pouring Rain, 2. Curveball, 3. Just Me And You, 4. One Of Us)

gosteel2 - Has kind of a Nine Inch nails kind of sound to me. Listened to the 1st three songs, First one kicks, the second is good but has mix issues with the guitar in the verses, third song very cool too. Cool

enroe - I just listened to the song "pouring rain":
Bewitching vocals, dark synth progressions, good guitar rhythm parts,
coltish panorama-plays ... a somewhat strange overall spirit, so
it "has" something!

juicyboy - Hi, I think these tunes have got loads of potential

DaveS - Hi. Some good stuff here. Cool. I enjoyed all 4 songs.

SGarrett - Very nice. The first one really grooves. These guys might like a band called Luxt from Sacramento, CA. Look up a song called "American Beast" on youtube.

Mauri - That's some very nice, interesting stuff there. IMHO a very good production all round.

Shouldn't this be in the 'link your music' forum and not the general.

Perhaps Ableton with start a forum just for your music as obviously they don't have that at the present time.

Hugs,
