    Otra bandita desconocida

    Les dejo una banda que encontré hoy en Demonoid de Prog rock combinado con industrial. Es una especie de Yes meets NIN and The Mars Volta.

    Está bastante bueno.

    La banda se llama Of The I

    MySpace: http://www.myspace.com/ofthei

    Ahí pueden escuchar temas enteros de la banda.

    Acá está el readme que venía con el torrent:


    Hey Guys
    Thanks for downloading this. We started posting our stuff on forums to see what changes in terms of production could be made, and people seemed to like the music and were requesting it to be put on as a torrnet. So this is the e.p. to an album that has about 10 songs, the e.p. actually isn't even done yet, but its pretty much everything we want to say, the mixing still has a ways to go though. I hope you guys like it and who knows, maybe p2p will be our medium for getting our music heard!!! It would be the ultimate jab in the face to the music industry!!!
    Much Love
    Of The I




    For the Audiophiles:

    The band consists of 5 people, we are all students in London and we recorded this in our flat. I know the audio quality is still not the greatest but keep in mind this was made using a

    Focusrite Trakmaster Pro Vocal preamp - for the guitars bass and vocals
    Roland Td-20 - electronic drumset for recording the drums. We midi'd it into the soundcard and used Drumkit From Hell for the actual samples, the td-20 was just used as the midi triggering device that our drummer played on (cause the actual sounds on the bank suck donkey balls).
    Groove Tubes Gt-66 - One of the better pieces of gear, we used it to mic the vocals, acoustic guitars, and some of the samples you hear.

    We ran all the audio into the Tascam FW-1804 which firewired into the apple g5 using Logic Pro 7. We used mostly the Logic plug-ins but we had a few other good ones that came in handy. The BBE sonic maximizer is probably the single most valuable plug-in we have, it sounds really good on the master output and can give the mix a lot more warmth. We then quickly ran the mixes through T-Racks 24 which gave the mixes more of a crisp quality and also just brought up all the levels.

    However the biggest problem was the fact that I was producing the album and I had no idea what i was doing, basically this album is me learning how to record music from scratch, so Im sure you guys are seeing a million things wrong with these mixes but I mean we dont have any monitor speakers so we are basically mixing on headphones and our home stereo.

        Wow.... Hacía mil que no te veía. Que lástima que vengas con la misma mala onda de siempre.

        Desarrollá, capo, por qué te parece que la banda es pretenciosa? ¿Qué te lleva a pensar tal cosa?

          DIOS MIO?!

          Encontré una de las bandas que había perdido hace tiempo! Tenía un sólo CD de esta banda que había conseguido en 1999 cuando les mandé un email posando como un tipo que tenía un programa de prog rock en una radio. Lo perdí años más tarde cuando me robaron la radio del auto.

          Vayan acá: http://www.myspace.com/eventband y hagan click en Perfect Illusion cuando cargue el player. Ese disco es genial!

          Esto de MySpace está bueno para encontrar buena música ehg

          Este review de Amazon describe bastante bien lo que es ese disco:

          This is an excellent album. Although Event have a *very* individual sound, if I were forced to make comparisons I would say they could be described as a cross between Chromakey and Queensryche, with a bit of Dream Theater thrown in for good measure - difficult to imagine! This album contains a series of complex but also oddly "catchy" songs with lots of carefully-controlled experimentation with rhythm patterns and melodies, having an overall "synthesized/processed" sound. The music is driven by an awesome percussion/bass combination that are more than happy to experiment with some bizarre rhythm patterns, whilst keyboard and guitar provide excellent (and just as intruiging) melody lines over the top. The sound is rounded out by an excellent vocalist, pitched about mid-range but with a powerful edge to his voice. Make no mistake, these guys are all extremely talented musicians, including two graduates from the now-famous Berklee College of music. This album shows a great deal of versatility in composition ranging from tracks with instant appeal to quite complex instrumentals, while retaining a consistent (but *very* unique) sound throughout. An excellent album, and a worthy addition to any modern progressive fan's collection (ie. Dream Theater, Dali's Dilemma, Cairo, Fates Warning, etc.) - it will fill a gap that you didn't even know existed until now!

              no es solo pretension el hecho de usar nombres rebuscados como Cathexis para un tema q suena nada mas q a un mero capricho... y ni hablar de Stopping the world!!! y con un titulo como Between Being and Ego creo q ssencillamente se van a la mierda...

              Por cierto una influencia pasa a ser un plagio cuando se calca... no es solo pretension, ademas... aburre



              BTW: gracias por el cartelito titilante, de todas formas me fue imposible no comprobarlo empiricamente
