I feel like sharing, whether anyone else cares or not. I'll just use this thread to post as I write stuff and finalize it. My only warning: I don't sing. Everything I write is basically instrumental.

This one isn't new (meaning, it's more than a week old), but I feel it's a pretty good snap shot of where my brain is at as a musician at this moment in time. I also think it's just a good song that shows off my meta side, my melodic side, my electronic side, etc, so I'll try and lead off strong:

Plenty more to come as I finish new songs. Okay, a second warning: the material I've been writing recently is heavy as ****, so it probably won't be everyone's cup of tea, but I'm still gonna post it anyway.

I hope you enjoy if you take the click!
 
Damn dude, I like it. I like it a lot. Kinda reminds me of the electronic stuff I'm working on. The first one especially is really cool.
 
Yay! Listeners! Thanks guys.

Here's something I did today. I'm surprised it came together as quickly as it did. I was just messing around with an old school Swedish death metal sound. I didn't intend to write a whole song, I was just playing around, but it turned into this:

And Matt, if you're working on stuff, post it. We don't have enough musicians throwing themselves out there on this site. Let's change that.

Here's a link to my soundcloud. I just got FL studio and I'm just now learning the ins and out of it, so my stuff isn't very advanced sounding.

Don't sell yourself short. Those are cool! Emotional Baggage is especialy cool. I love those vibe sounds. It's very Trent Reznor circa Ghosts. The triplet stutters on Tear are really cool too. My advice is to start getting into automation more. If you added more dynamics, more shifting EQ's and filter cutoffs, these would be amazing. I know next to nothing about FL, but I have no doubt you can automate the crap out of it. Go for it!

Thanks. I literally learn something new or try something new everytime I compose a song with FL so hopefully everything will evolve to be a bit more dynamic
