Seeing as i stalled my hifi album known as the many faces of 3 due to not having the right mood for it i chose to do a little 8 bit album ive been wanting to do for a while.

the story is loosely based on how machines perpetuated by the infinite energies (as they are) would look at mankind in these days, with heavy contrasts added.

so far created:

1- All will be here.
2- I am the machine.
3- Nuclear cathedral.
4- Twelve legged god.
5- Tesla death.
6- One mans remains.
7- You're all that.
8- Ending.

~~album finished and uploaded~~

The machine 1:
http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/497396
All will be there.

The machine 2:
http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/497397
I am the machine.

New project, probably the last of the series based on the deepest emotions of my life.

1- press start to feel lonely. (intro) 1:50 [uploaded]
2- small time bandit. 1:50 [uploaded]
3- for the ridden. 2:30 [uploaded]
-
---STALLED---
4- birth of the wraith.
5- vengeful declarations.
6- tearsunk.
7- wakeup honey. (ending)

cr edit: i choose to stall this album as i completely lack the mindset/mood to create tracks for this album atm, it requires a melancholic gloomy mood wich i just dont have with the nice summer weather etc. Instead ill upload some 8bit works of late.

I will most likely continue this album after the summer anyway.

greets -calamastr.

The many faces of 3.

*Album completed*


Posted by Calamaistr - December 18th, 2011


edit: This was a brainstorm for future story archs, few of this has actually made it into the storyline, most of it has been rewritten.

 

Putting all the dots together, bear with me.. if you have any knowledge yet of the TTCGenero and TTCHybrid storylines, if not i suggest you read up on them, without it this synopsis of the final album TTCDomus will make no sense whatsoever. -Cal.
--------------------------------------
-------------------------------

Premature shaping of TTC Domus.

synopsis:

Selen dissapeared in the eden war, this wasnt coincedential as she found the denimus first in emper.
She was sent by the king of trine (osega before his corruption by buhishin) whom she served to investigate, the so called summoners under kirov in emper who summoned the god golem actually used a denimus to do so.
Icle istus was so powerful that it could not possibly give life to a roamer, so instead it was eaten by the denimus whole after its rampage.. this made the denimus a god denimus wich started a whole sub universe inside it known as the sentinelial, pilar as an effect.

Selen traveled through this denimus to another place (hura) and was never seen again in the main line of events, however this sprung her 'daughter' roamer jui who by lack of a true emperor nor prince lone took the throne of edin.

Kaurl was a scholar who did original research on the denimus in Hura, and was killed for it by the four (eventual) sages bakuran, mijudes, metameci and in particular he who committed the act itself: Eluiscer.
What wasnt known until in this final episode is that Eluiscer was the very younger brother of the most powerful figure in all of the northern half of hura; Noah (the first) zansevelt.
Noah's son then; noah the 2nd became father of another son 'pius' and finally pius would give life to Huban, the ruler of Dam (new northern hura) in the original TTC storyline.

This does not yet explain all, for instance how kaurls spirit came to travel the denimus all the way to edin.

The truth is, eluiscer abused his power and installed the denimus kaurl had been killed for.. in his very own keep. (eventually huban's palace, where in TTCgenero sanake and ega retrieve it)
This to gain the ultimate power, to rule not only the present, but also the future. To take care of the roamer problem however, he builded an underground lake in wich he literally expelled them, unknown to him; corrupting the denimus.. Ultimately (literally, at the final chapter of the first storyline) granting kaurl to use it as a vessel.

Kaurl had only one wish, to exact revenge on eluiscer whom in the future had recreated himself as a sage to be worshipped defiling his name and at the same time misusing or rather abusing the denimus that kaurl now was part of.

It was kaurl's ritual through the denimus that caused the denimus to flock to edin ending the first TTC's storyline with the death of lone and the birth of the denimus hunters including Uume sol's ship.
This denimus was the corrupted one taken from hura by ega and sanake and how it had caused kaurl to end up in edin, but also why ega's insanity beared no fruit. Afterall, kaurl was in full control.

Remaining on the kenaí mountainrange pagoda; kaurl continued to flock denimus to edin, desperate to open hybernaculuüm* and pull eluiscer through.

In another time, eluiscer had setted his sights on a second denimus uncovered in the swamps, housing a giant demon of old 'Buhishin'.
Eluiscer had calculated this denimus connected not time but space, and could open many more options of domination on a much larger scale.. Eluiscers lust for celestial status would take to gross levels.

The buhishin denimus was connected to no other place than edin, to the god denimus present.
And at the time of writing, at the end of TTChybrid, the only original denimus left.

Eluiscer himself however did not dare to traverse and weaved together a masterplan, he and his kinmen would bide their time abusing the prospects of timecontrol.. and manipulate their future blood to use it in their place.
For this he needed but one trigger, a dog to drive the sheep into the pen. They unleashed the total of the malicious roamers of the corrupt kaurl's denimus upon the future land.
Yet this was not enough as his kinmen mijudes and metameci started to rebel and chose the side of Eluiscers very own wife Diades.. fighting off the invasion until an unexpected turn of events swayed fate in Eluiscers favor.

Kaurl's anomalious roamer ega came upon the battlefield with a mind and goal of his own, at the same time buhishin ravaged the land. Eluiscers preferred chaos was complete.

Bakuran, Eluiscers most loyal kinmen was trusted to safekeep both the scapegoat Eken as to follow him and retrieve to coordinates of the denimus that waited on the other side.
Little did Bakuran know that this denimus would eventually expel another traveller; Buhishin itself.. and make retrieval impossible until later notice.

It was also Bakuran that prevented the destruction of the original corrupted denimus that Ihuren in his personal quest to eliminate it..had transferred to Edin by requesting their leave to the owls temple of denimus.
In the end Bakuran had doctored it all, Diades(diadao) aid, the manipulation of queen jui, even pushing the roamers into the direction of Eken's former entourage.
So it ended, with not one.. but two conspirators (Ega and Bakuran) with their own agenda.

This ultimately was massively overruled, and ultimately thwarted by the wrath of Kaurl on mount Kenaï.
And this, is where the album starts.

Or rather, with Selen, who would find herself in the ancient times of hura, where the sages were still men..
Where Kaurl had set its sights, where it all began, and will all end with one final siege.
As Eluiscer watched carefully deviously experienced through his own younger eyes.

A final threeway battle with goals and their scales so far apart, that it could only end for all.
and will it?

*Hybernaculuüm: The transdimentional place that connects all time and space by absolute compression of all that exists, unhabitable.

Since a few conversations with someone called Bjra ive been gradually paying more attention to volume and mastering, ill never be making music thats so loud your ears tear off like theres so much on ng cause im a firm believer in 'lower volume means higher hearing range'.

Anyway heres my new project, remember the 'Many faces of' album based on the psychology behind some of my life's most fairytale like events? The many faces of - 2 ' is its successor.

This time instead of being based on my childhood, it bases itself loosely on events throughout my whole life, including recent.

Afterall, what is better inspiration than the most intense of all true experiences?

List of contents:

Projectlist:
- He was a shade.
- Keep dreaming boy.
- Stars, my friend.
- Beech and salt.
- Child, breathe.
- Hello 93.

~Album finished.


Posted by Calamaistr - July 24th, 2011


a reminder: about a year and a half ago i first uploaded the 'nightmare of lighter darker album'
though most tracks got around a score of 3.5 total, the closing piece skyrocketed into 4.5 with a pretty high amount of votes. Sure it added a bit of pride to see such a success for one of my compositions.

Eventually i chose to lock down all my music and removed the nightmare of lighter darker album from the site because i was leaving ng over a certain tendency against me and people making up how i would be this and that not even knowing me, even lighthearted jabs were taken as having a giant ego and that atmosphere was starting to piss me off.

Eventually, about a year later..

I came back to newgrounds and just recently i chose to re-upload the nightmare of lighter darker album.

Not long ago i met the same garbage zerobombing me purposely, obviously the same people that acted the way they did a year ago, trying to get me to leave ng again.

Currently the scores on the nightmare of lighter darker album are pretty low, though some tracks have the same scores they had a year ago, however the closing piece that was so praised and rewarded with high scores sits at 2.47. This is an insult.

I realise that it needs more votes but really, why is it so low while the last time i posted it it shot up emediately with almost constant 5s (not kidding, i had like 8 votes in a row giving 5s)

Just two deaf people that had nothing to do and went into the classical section to troll? Or the same people that try to get me off newgrounds?
