One of my biggest influences is the band 'Gojira' which you can clearly hear in the breakdown section of the song where I've incorporated techniques such as the weird pick scrape that they use as well as use of the whammy pedal both of which are staples of their sound. I am planning for this song to be the live video performance)]]> 2022-12-12 05:28:41 UTC https://padlet.com/stevenm787/ue7fbylamrefhsu4/wish/2417320819 stevenm787 https://padlet.com/stevenm787/ue7fbylamrefhsu4/wish/2417323261 2022-12-12 05:33:01 UTC https://padlet.com/stevenm787/ue7fbylamrefhsu4/wish/2417323261 stevenm787 https://padlet.com/stevenm787/ue7fbylamrefhsu4/wish/2417325601 This is the first demo of my cover of the Gojira song 'Silvera'. I decided to do this cover as it's one of thir more popular songs that also has a great message. I plan to submit this as the studio recording part of the assignment.]]> 2022-12-12 05:36:57 UTC https://padlet.com/stevenm787/ue7fbylamrefhsu4/wish/2417325601 stevenm787 https://padlet.com/stevenm787/ue7fbylamrefhsu4/wish/2417332652 2022-12-12 05:48:50 UTC https://padlet.com/stevenm787/ue7fbylamrefhsu4/wish/2417332652 stevenm787 https://padlet.com/stevenm787/ue7fbylamrefhsu4/wish/2417337681 2022-12-12 05:56:33 UTC https://padlet.com/stevenm787/ue7fbylamrefhsu4/wish/2417337681 stevenm787 https://padlet.com/stevenm787/ue7fbylamrefhsu4/wish/2417348532 This is the second demo of my song 'Y2K' I've added a a clean ambient intro section that was inspired by the band 'Tool'. Gojira and Tool are my two favourite bands therefore I tried to blend the two influences in this track. I did this by incorporating ambience and textures similar to the style of Tool as well as heavy riffs and techniques that Gojira use.]]> 2022-12-12 06:12:40 UTC https://padlet.com/stevenm787/ue7fbylamrefhsu4/wish/2417348532 stevenm787 https://padlet.com/stevenm787/ue7fbylamrefhsu4/wish/2417367234 Video from a rehearsal at Brighton Electric.

Vocals and Drums have been compressed and I've used subtractive EQ so the instruments don't clash and . I've also added small EQ boosts here and there so everything sits well together.
