Shill Post your website announcements here. Anything that is blatantly SPAM (nigerian schemes, make money fast, etc) will be deleted. Actually, we'd probably keep the nigerian schemes around to make fun of it. |

Website and Demo track of our band
We've finally got a website and demo track up at http://www.reverbnation.com/hexotericka.
The official band page is still under construction, and the demo song itself didn't turn out quite the way we hoped, but it gives you a bit of an idea of what we sound like.

Sounds good. I look forward to hearing more of it, particularly once you get the sound down exactly as you wanted it.

What did you record on Darcnyss? I'm leaning to analog 4 track for money purposes.

Thanks, Delkaetre! Stormtrooper, we're basically using an 8 channel mixer board and routing it into a PC where we do the digital recording with Cool Edit Pro.

I like how you added the lil' bit of piano. I enjoyed it, though I would've liked the lead vocals to be a bit more... loud. Very good, though, and I mean it.

Thank you very much, Green.Lady. Yes, I agree that the vocals should have been louder. Sadly, currently we are not in control of the mixing ourselves, since that's done by a sound guy over at DarcTyde.
Hopefully we'll be able to get a better version out soon.

Just heard it - you've got some skill there! (although I also think the mixing needs a bit of work and maybe a stronger bass?)
So, uhm, when're you performing at Zeplins?

Thanks Nevan!
Well, we're currently only 2 guys in the band, and that doesn't make for a very exciting live performance.
We'll probably do the live thing as soon as we have more members.

Fancy. I like the lo-fi sound of 4 track analog alot, so we'll probably do that. I'm going to (hopefully) be getting some cool stuff for my guitar to add a bit more. A 1968 Fender Reverb pedal, Ibanez Tube Screamer and another distortion box for cheap from a kid I know at school. I just want the reverb pedal. It'll be an interesting combination, reverb on 1 minute long punk song.

I'm taking notes. Fruity Loops is okay. Damn though.

VERY good stuff. I really like the vocals, and like Green.Lady said, the piano is a lovely touch.
