Bring out your dead

By Kedbreak136 on May 17, 2020 1:54 am

I had this bunch of riffs that sounded like a slow cemetery party. After adding all the samples I could find on splice that were Horror related, it sounded like this should not be a slow goth song but it should go metal. like METAL. So i added a ton of guitar, it's the sound of mash potatoes crying, it sounds like a early 90s shitty death metal demo tape. But I had fun at least.  It's like the soundtrack of the trailer of an amateur zombie apocalypse movie.

BRING OUT YOUR DEAD!

Done in FL studio, with Horrors package samples from Splice, FPC drum machine. A mixbag of guitars and bass plugged into FX Bias.

Killer main riff. Also love the choice of samples for the quieter section, and the way it feels like there's a short moment of silence before the zombie horde reappears. Nice work!

Cool stuff. J'aime les screams. Ça marcherait bien comme soundtrack d'un film d'horreur. bien joué.

This is great; pairs well with how I’m watching The Walking Dead right now. I like the guitar solo at 1:45.

Thank you! Yes, like you get a camera closeup of a character and some kind of dark doorway behind them. smile

Ah yes that was the intent. Simple and evil.

By the way, if you guys have good tips to make a clearer metal track mix, i'd welcome that. The current mix is very messy. It kinda works for that specific track and the chaotic vibe but it's not as if I intentionally meant to make it sound unclear. I always struggle with the balance of having heavy guitars and avoiding the wow-wow mushy sound.

Damn, coming in hard with that intro. Super intense, good idea to take it in a metal direction. Really nice unexpected change up at 1:45 too, fits into the song really well.

Thank you! Metal guitars always feel good. smile

Fucking intense! Those guitars are sick!!  I like your description of mash potatoes crying, lol. Can I get that as a plugin for Logic? The zombie stuff is crazy. Fun song all around and a slamming start to my Sunday morning smile

Ohhhh yeah I like this.  Great intro.  Great sample in the beginning.  A little horrifying at times wink
