July 18, 200817 yr Ok, so I just uploaded my last work.. The album is called Gyvas, but you can also find my other stuff here too: Sandras – Listen free at Last.fm Any feedabck, positive, or negative (must be constructive), is welcome.. Thanks..
July 20, 200817 yr glad to hear you back. once again good electro surgeon stuff. it sounds like something is being searched in a cellar labratory, or like someone/something tries to say - i'm alive (which is a translation of the title 'gyvas'), surrounded by gadgets, transistors, all different kind of machines. i find your works being as one piece, is there any reason for division? for i think it works best when sounding without gaps. as for the darker side. first track could've been shorter. it has really nice tension between noise and the stabs, but it kinda wears out at about 6 minute. overall i enjoyed it as well, keep your works coming and let me (us) know. best regards, martin

And gave it the name Gyvas (Alive), becouse I probably saved him from death.. And even after Gyvas' death his name will symbolize the triumph of life (how epic;);)).. So, suddenly I realised, that this album reminds me about life the way it fades in and out.. And named it after my dog.. Now, about the separation thing.. Every piece on the album was a separate Entity.. But later I connected everything in to one big piece, just to separate them all again later and have that fading thing.. Actually I tried leaving 0.8 and 0.9 as one track, but it just didnt feel right for me.. And I think its possible to listen to the record without gaps.. Its the listeners job to find out how.. Just like its the listeners job to cope with that long intro.. I dont know, I just wanted a veeery long intro, to tease the listener.. Its fun.. This stuff isnt very accesible, so why not make it even more unaccesible.. In the time I made these 3 releases I was always thinking about the structure of an album.. Im interested in different form and concepts of it.. And that what keeps me in the playground releasing them even if I dont have any (or if I have very few) listeners.. Next time Ill try to experiment less and do more accesible/not so annoying stuff just to chall(a/e[??])nge myself.. Thank you for the comment, I knew you should answer to this..
July 22, 200817 yr i love dogs. now you have ethics behind your piece as well :) listeners will come with time. gotta get someone advertising and spreading your works, or you may do it yourself. but in that case better split up and become someone else, i know how often people don't like the author doing promotions (they usually feel embarrassed and annoyed, especially when it comes to evaluating the works), though i think works should live on their own and in that case authorship shouldn't be such a big of a matter. hey, cheers to your dog ;)
