-Announcement-

So music on here is going to be on hiatus for a little bit. Unfortunately, one of my expensive speakers blew up, sadly I don't have the money to replace it. I am not going to review music on anything, lower quality than studio monitors. I feel it wouldn't be fair on the producers, and or musicians to do so as I may not hear all of the elements in a song, on low-quality speakers. I am going to be going into a studio, hopefully, a mastering studio, very soon, though. Just for the sake of listing and reviewing tracks. Once that happens I should have some more content, for the page.

I keep you all posted RIP right speaker 2016. If anyone knows how to fix speakers/amps please get in touch.

Regards Shane

Rockets

Sylenth is life. enjoy

Love the vibes on this track, right up my ally. I’m regretting being away from my sub at home, but luckily I had a good pair of headphones. This track has a Trap/future bass vibe going on but way more chill, and with some amazing synth runs/solos throughout. If you looking for some traveling music, or just something to chill out too, check this track out!

Blue Wave Mosaic

Indie Alternative Acoustic Groove Pop Blue Wave Mosaic OUT NOW Coming to iTunes and Spotify soon

I thought I might keep the relaxing train going, with some really easy listing neo-soul hip hop.I think this album really needs to be listed to start to finish, and it’s a pleasure to do so. The first track really sets the mood for the rest of the album and shows off the elements that are used throughout the rest of the songs. I really enjoyed the reverb washed saxophone solo in the Interlude “after midnight, Still thinking” It just sits so nicely in the middle of the album and gives a relaxing palate cleanser to bring the track back down, after the most intense ending of “PHILIPS’S BICYCLE ft.DJ Shafer”.

I really seem to get that whole, late night relaxing in your loft apartment, sorta vibe from this album. But I think it would also be amazing to listen too if you are just walking around the city or going for a curse. If you can either listen to the first track or the whole album.  Also, if you liked it, go check out our facebook page for more awesome music https://www.facebook.com/ManeStudios/ .

Reflect

Ambient music/post rock music

I got linked to this song though Reddit, and it was an amazing pleasure to listen too. Especially since I was a little stressed out, and it helped me relax. So I thought I would share that experience with all of you. The wash of drone sounds and the super reverberant guitar create an amazing soundscape for your thoughts to drift off into. I recommend checking this out, and just put it on and relax.  Also if you liked it, go check out our facebook page for more awesome music https://www.facebook.com/ManeStudios/.

Coals & Fire - NEW ALBUM

The New Album! Coals & Fire - product of countless musicians, Benj and I having our own studio, and a buncha stocked up original material! See us live this summer anywhere in VT, more info on our face

So I'm getting sent some really awesome stuff, I went out looking for EDM and found something way cooler. This was sent to me through reddit, by mandolinmanvt "Hey! I'm an mandolinist, I just released a new album, everything from gypsy jazz to funk". It's something I didn't think I would enjoy, but it actually sounds amazing.

The album although seems like a series of ups and downs, with some tracks hitting the sweet spot of clarity and grove, but their are some other songs that might be jarring to people who aren't used to the genres of folk, gypsy or funk. If you just want to skip through the album I definitely recommend the instrumental tracks, 'Blue Sky Rapture', 'Asphalt', 'Iris Rag' and 'Betwixt the ways the world turns 'round', they make amazing listening music, or background music. But the tracks 'Two Shoes' and 'The Stranger it Gets', shouldn't be missed.

On a final note, it seems fitting that the first track I promote on here is a folk sounding funk sounding album, with a name like Coals and Fire. The first album I ever, ever recorded was a folk blues album called Coals, by Ed Wordmen. Also if you liked it give this post a like so it gets shared around some more (this seriously helps)

Reallifedissociation

-Like noisy music? -Yes. The louder the better. Stops me from thinking. -You don't like to think? What do you like? - Never thought about it.

It might just be because it's really early in the morning, but sometimes I love this style of music. I think it's largely because it seems to push on what people would define as "music". It's these sorts of songs that help us develop new styles of music. This style of song for me is definitely not listenable all the time, but when it is it's eerie, spooky and it's ability to cause these feelings is sorta spectacular in it's own way. I really recommend giving it a listen late at night, with the lights off while staring at some glitch art.

Dirtbag - Dirtbag

The song "Dirtbag" off our soon to be released EP, recorded 20/12/2015 @ Adversary Studios in St Peters, Sydney, Australia. Footage taken from the recording ...

Final song for today, is from a punk band up in Sydney. Now normally I'm not allowed to like anything from Sydney, but that's because it's probably the worst place in the world... Putting aside the Melbourne vs Sydney jokes, this Song is really F#%*ing good. Brutal vocals, roomy sounding drums, clear but grungy and brutal. I got a little bit excited when I read "Sydney based punk band" and this track meet all my expectations and surpassed them.

When you have finished listening to their track go check out their facebook page https://www.facebook.com/dirtbagmusic/. Also if you liked it, go check out our facebook page for more awesome musichttps://www.facebook.com/ManeStudios/.
