Wicked City

Hello again.

I was one of the 20-something artists from 2012 that finished my Weeklybeats challenge from start to finish. I decided that I wanted to do it again because I achieved quite a bit in 2013 with my compositional work and I want to continue having something to look forward to while I expand my expertise and keep myself sane while I'm working. I may or may not do the whole thing like last time though, I'll see how the year pans itself out.

A quick rundown on 2013, I participated in an original collaboration of young artists, poets and musicians like myself in a project called Parranormal. Out of the 7 tracks of music done I've composed 4 of them, 2 are drones, 1 is a Lullatone ripoff and 1 is a spacey chiptune track. I've also had my first gig as a paid composer so hopefully it will be the first of many.

I also currently play in two bands, the first is a bass and drum powerviolence/grindcore band called Frame 313. I do drums and whiny vocals. We've done a few demos, an EP and two splits with Cancer Patient from the states and Snuffx from India which you can suss here for now. We're currently touring and then writing towards a couple more splits and releases. We also share an ambient noise project called Giygas which will also make some new stuff real soon.

The second band I play guitar in a post-harcore/skramz band called Cittagazze which has only played one gig and no demo currently until around March or April. Seagull Chainsaw itself hasn't done too much, just toe odd song here and there and my first proper EP called Born In A Debt which is a foray into chipnoise. The compilation of my last 14 tracks from the 2012 WB challenge was also never released because I completely forgot about it but it will be soon.

Oh and I got a tiny run of cassettes coming out from Purulent Sounds. Basically a best of from WB 2012 and almost all my musical outputs from 2013 including the Parranormal tracks.

Thats about it I think, here is a track that has nothing to do with the film.

thick and gritty! i really like your kit/noise combo snare and those kinda reversed sounding noise hits

Yeah. Masterful, mr chainsaw.

lol'd at the TLDR tag XD Good stuff! Downloaded for airing purposes!
