Destroy: KVR Cafe Contest Entry, Jul 2011.


The theme for July 2011 KVR Cafe Contest was “Industrial” genre. I am not a big fan nor had any prior knowledge of this genre, hence had to do some research. Read a few articles before started working on this track. I tried my best to stay as close to the genre as possible and came up with the following track. It’s called “Destroy”, basically a demon/satan who wants to destroy the world. I never expected that it would receive some good reviews and votes but to my utter surprise it did and ended up at number 14 out of 22 tracks. Well, not a big achievement but cannot complain either.

**UPDATE: Track deleted from SoundCloud. Will update with new link soon.

Reviews and feedback (Copied from the KVR Audio Forum):
Gremsongs: Love the guitars!! This song drives!!
adj: Almost destroyed my earphones :-D
So, what is Industrial music anyway? Here is the Urban dictionary definition:

Industrial Music is difficult to define but it has to do with experimentation, improvisation, and pure noise. Is about programing hard noisy sounds on samplers, scratching the guitar strings by adding distortion and phaser, hitting hard on metallic devices, and screaming or talk loud on a voice machine.
