Dusty roads. Bicycles ringing bells. Cows lazing. Farmers and bullock carts. Children playing cricket. Wealth in reality, poverty in existence. Happiness in little things, sadness in even smaller things. Solace in the world’s biggest things. Comfort on reassurance, discomfort in oblivion. Beauty in it’s diversity, magnificence in her unity. This is my country, and Folked are my people.

This was so much fun. Song’s called Despotic Freeze. Don’t ask why.

Hey guys! New Melakartha song is here.

So after trashing a couple song ideas, and spending hours trying to find that ‘liquid’ sound, ‘Stellar’ finally found its place. Mixed it in less than a day, so pardon rough edges if any. Pretty pleased with the mix overall.

Gear details: Schecter Blackjack with Stock pups, Blackstar HT-5, PodX3, EHX Soul Preacher, Toontrack Metal Foundry for drums.

Guitars were certainly placed up-front, as compared to earlier Melakartha mixes. Hit play below.

Enjoy and don’t forget to hit ‘Like’ below if you liked the song!

Innerworld

What started off as a melodic funk riff ended up as an experimetal song. Lot more layers, dense, and tight.

This time, it hit Soundclick #3. Yay! Go ahead and listen to the song if you haven’t already, and leave a comment if you liked it.

I had put this track up a couple days back and it rocketed to #8 on the metal charts in no time. It doesn’t mean much, technically speaking, but it certainly means a lot to me :) infidel

The song’s being discussed on a few forums too: Harmony-Central, SS.org. Thanks to Santhosh Lobo and the guys at got-djent.com for helping spread the word. Go ahead and listen to the song if you haven’t already, and leave a comment if you liked it.

Melakartha – Time Machine

http://www.soundclick.com/Melakartha – LQ version and http://www.gimmesound.com/Melakartha – HQ version

Song was written in a moment of good old sci-fi reminiscence (Yes, prog. metallers are retarded). Drop-tuned grooving with ambient layers.

Gear: Schecter Blackjack, Superior 2.0, Blackstar HT-5
