32 is still a god damn number

noreply@blogger.com (Cyntrix) — Tue, 29 Nov 2011 22:39:00 +0000

Release of '32' went pretty good. It's only been up for barley under a month and it has close to all the tracks have close to 1,000 views and 77 downloads so far!

I think my favorite track on the demo is 'Tiny Thieves.' It's had the most success and is pretty much tied as the fan favorite with 'Pretty Raving Pirates.'

I can't decide whether to leave the ink slots in or out. :/ of course if i left them in, I would take out the black thing at the bottom, but still. Too hard to decide. They look so good. Here's some more that have been edited by Burak Aslan!

I might use that last one also. :3

32 Progress, and collab announcement

noreply@blogger.com (Cyntrix) — Wed, 19 Oct 2011 10:55:00 +0000

Hey guys! Been super busy latley, and haven't gotten around to updating anything besides Facebook.

Here's the gist of what i've been up to the last couple weeks:

Recorded this, it turned out great. Full version will be released on October 31st with the rest of the demo album.

You Feed Me :) - Preview by cyntrix
Go to http://www.soundcloud.com/cyntrix for free download :)

I've basically just been working really hard on 32 to get it out on time.

Also, a collab between me and some amazing local rappers have been announced. I will be working with Yung Trouble and iQ Da Brainz on a hip hop/rap, electro house/dubstep track. I already have some ideas for the instrumental. This shit is going to be insane.

More news coming later today, so stay tuned.

Couple new things:

On Wednesday, I went back to Guitar Center with Marti to re-record, and it was a sucess! I got some perfect vocals from her, and am in the process o putting them into the song right now. I'm doing a couple of different things with her vocals, and it sounds great so far :) I will release the newly re-mastered original version of So Far Gone as soon as i'm done with it, but I'll release the actual So Far Gone (feat. Marti White) on Halloween, October 31st, along with a couple of other tracks, including a brand-new re-recorded, remastered version of Pretty Raving Pirates (feat. Anthony Slusher)!

I will also be making a video, "The Making of So Far Gone," It looks pretty cool so far.

One more thing: Last night, I attempted to record my first DJ mix, and I'm pretty sure it was a sucess. Check it out, and please give me feedback.

JT Leon - The Dogs (feat. Cyntrix)

noreply@blogger.com (Cyntrix) — Wed, 14 Sep 2011 01:52:00 +0000

Finally finished this song I've been working on for almost a month. It's a collaborating with JT Leon, a producer from Liverpool, UK. It's a pretty cool song. I don't know if he will release it right away, or release it along with his album, T.A.B.O.O., but when it is released, I promise I'll post it on here ASAP. :)

You can check out JT Leon's other stuff here!

Guitar Center: Take Two

noreply@blogger.com (Cyntrix) — Wed, 14 Sep 2011 01:47:00 +0000

Called up Guitar Center and spoke to the manager about my problems. Christian and I went up there to see if there was anything wrong with finalizing the CD, and there wasn't. It was something else. I scheduled to record again next Wednesday for free. I saw one of my All Star buddies who works there, George. Tomorrow is his birthday! Haha. We took some video, i'll make one big video and post it after we're done recording. :)

Love,

Cyntrix

Blink182 & My Chemical Romance/Band Practice

noreply@blogger.com (Cyntrix) — Mon, 12 Sep 2011 01:22:00 +0000

Last night, I went to the Blink182/My Chemical Romance/Matt & Kim concert in Indianapolis, Indiana. It was awesome. I got to go for free, because my friends had an extra ticket. It was a seat ticket, but it was still epic. Travis Barker's flying drum solo... Oh my god. I loved it.

We also had practice today. It was one of the best practices we've had in a while. Got a bunch of shit down. A whole new original song, with epic keyboards/piano. Shit's gonna be cash. Burak had a camera from his school, so there's some pictures.

My day summed up in one word: Cluser-Fuck.

noreply@blogger.com (Cyntrix) — Thu, 08 Sep 2011 00:46:00 +0000

This has been my day:

Wake up early
shit waffles for brekfast
go to school
it sucked
lots of homework to do
come home
excited about recording
leave in 10 min
CANNOT FIND CAMERA CHARGER ANYWHERE
45 min late to guitar center, with Dad's shit camera ready to film
old ladies in front of me
someone stops in the middle of the road for 2 min to let ducks cross
red lights everywhere
can't speed, police around every corner
finally make it to Guitar Center
rush through 29 takes in one hour and thirty min.
Pay for 2 hours studio time, only get 1 and a half
finally done, satisfyed with it
retarded bitch who doesn't know what an XLR or a 1/4" cable is burns CD of takes for me to take home and edit
IT'S JUST 29 TRACKS OF SILENCE! THEY DIDN'T TURN THE MICROPHONES ON
Call up there
bitch at them
hurrr can't do anything until manager comes in 3 days from now

Fuck you, Guitar Center. and quit hiring retarded people who have no knowledge of musical equipment whatsoever. There are plenty of people who know what they are doing in this are looking for jobs. Like me.

Horrible day. Except the part where I got to hang out with Marti and Christian. I love you guys :3

P.S. It's my Momma's birthday. Happy Birthday, Mom!

Recording today!!

noreply@blogger.com (Cyntrix) — Wed, 07 Sep 2011 20:00:00 +0000

Going to Guitar Center to record vocals today! They didn't have any extra small rooms, so I' paying extra for a big room full of useless (yet fun) equipment we don't need. Oh joy! haha. After vocals, I'll be re-mastering So Far Gone (feat. Marti White). There will also be a video. My friend (and Think Harder's Merch Guy) Christian will be filming our adventure. It shall be super fun. Be on the lookout for the new song. It'll be on my new CD, coming out in October! Whoo hoo! :D

-love, Cyntrix

Cancelled

noreply@blogger.com (Cyntrix) — Wed, 07 Sep 2011 04:30:00 +0000

I just cancelled a show for the first time in my musical career. The dude would not communicate, the whole thing was disorganized, and it would have turned into a cluster-fuck. I'm glad I cancelled. It was supposed to be for some benefit thing. He never told me exactly what we were raising money for. He wouldn't let me make a facebook event, he was going to do it himself. It was 3 days before the show and he still hadn't made one. What a joke.

I need me some monies.

noreply@blogger.com (Cyntrix) — Tue, 06 Sep 2011 21:21:00 +0000

I need to buy so much shit. But seriously. It was just my mom's birthday and I only had $20.00. I now have $2.00 in cash, and $4.00 in my bank account. That's a grand total of $6.00! Whoa, boy. This is all the crap I need to buy, just for Cyntrix stuff (in order):

Record Vocals with Marti for "So Far Gone (feat. Marti White)" at Guitar Center (already paid for) - $50.00
Domain Name (cyntrix.net) - $20-30?
Decent headphones - $40.00
Vocal Mic - $200.00
DJ Equipment Case/Table - $250.00
Decent Camcorder - $250-500?

That's just the beginning of it. I need a job. Really bad. haha.

Guitar Center

noreply@blogger.com (Cyntrix) — Tue, 06 Sep 2011 10:19:00 +0000

I scheduled some studio time in the ghetto-studios of Guitar Center. Marti and I are going to record good-quality vocals for "So Far Gone (feat. Marti White)." Christian, (Think Harder's Merch Guy) is coming along to film. It shall be a fun day.

I'm so excited.

I made a website. Bitches love websites.
