My quarantine EP project

[Platypus]

As I have had some forced time at home, I wanted to channel the energy from all this chaos into something productive. I am putting together an EP to capture the experience and I have enough songs in it now that I feel I can share it out. It's a work in progress, so I will continue to add tracks to the bandcamp page over time:

close quarters, by utkanos

6 track album

utkanos.bandcamp.com

Style wise it's a decent departure from my current band (remember live music? http://flyingpotion.com ), this stuff is a lot more ambient, ethereal, chill wave, dark and moody.

Starter track: "empty beaches" or my newest, "patience"

I hope you enjoy it, or don't, that's cool too 😉

I like that a lot. First and third tracks are my favorites. Second track would be great in a video game. Nice work :^)

 

[Spacehead]

As always, good stuff Platypus. Really enjoyed those songs. Sounds like they would fit in with the Chillout Zone Collection

Thanks for checking it out!

Do you know how long it'll eventually be?

Good question, depends on how long this shit lasts 😉

I was aiming for like 5 or 6, but it might keep going depending on how much time I have and when I get creative impulses

empty beaches was my favorite of the three

I can't help but wait for some heavy guitars to come crashing in on empty beaches 😀

Hah, I had considered that too actually, but I need to restring the guitar I'd want to use on it. Maybe a remix in the future 😉
Thanks for checking it out

I do love the idea of channeling positive energy into a craft of sorts,i feel music is very important for ones spirituality and well you get a thumbs up from me.

I found myself new things too that i value and got into. Maybe the one good thing to come from Covid. Always a positive out of a negative if you look hard enough, thanks for making the world a bit better with your music!

Edit: heard all the tracks, all sounded quite good but Empty beaches my favorite.

I like that a lot. Spoken word pieces with music are interesting. Reminds me a little of Nikki Grace Experience, but with Pink Floyd atmospherics.
