/godhaze/

>>51794338
I think the message should be about transcending our human bodies to become one with ancient gods

Also let's actually make some music for this genre and not just slow down grunge tracks or muzak

>>51794408
Yes, to both of these points

Godhaze is not samplebased

>>51794455
but we can use samples of throat singing, chanting and shit to layer into the music

>>51794338
>We already know that Godhaze will be inspired by noise, industrial, classical, and traditional religious music. Instruments used will be MIDI choir vocals as well as throat singing, chanting, and speaking in tongues. There will also be distorted organs and harps, and big booming drums and cymbals. Anything associated with any religion can be used.

I'm glad I was sitting down because I don't think I can handle this. This sounds...good. Don't fuck this up godhazers.

proto-godhaze?

>>51794338
This actually sounds pretty cool. It also lines up with some of the Poseidon in Chains' oceangrunge philosophy.

>>51794408
The latest oceangrunge albums use original, instrument-base music.

>>51794769
oceangrunge is dead

"Orthodox" black metal bands have taken traditional Christian church music and subverted it to add to the desolate Satanic atmosphere. That is what this thread made me think of.

>>51794520
Who?

>>51794338
This sounds very interesting. I might be interested in participating. What if samples are used unobtrusively and are changed significantly, but the core music is still non sample based?

this is a joke

>>51794900
It's clearly just vaporwave. There's no ocean, no grunge, and no dark atmosphere.

It doesn't even do the soothing melancholy of Gorgeous Gorgias.

>>51794921
Your face is a joke

>>51794935
you're the joke here

>>51794921
I says the comedy is that it's serious.
this is a strange enough new play on words
I say the tragedy is how you're gonna spend
the rest of your nights with the light on
So shine the light on all of your friends
well, it all amounts to nothing in the end.

>>51794913
That's the plan, were going to make some actual music with this one

>>51794873
Christianity only
Anything else would be heretical

my godhaze album will be ready in 3 days, it will be the floral shoppe of godhaze

>>51794895
umeberto ecojams rightfully won the poll, but the fine folks of /mu/ just weren't ready for sick jams inspired by such great books as "Name Of The Rose" and "Foucault's Pendulum."

>>51794873
all religions are fair game except atheism and satanism

>>51794995
>not Buddhism
>not Islam

>>51794970
Is there a particular message you're aiming for, or is this going to be more an artistic reflection on religion?

Why don't we try and not use already made religions, but create our own? Or just use God as the objective, but not specify which religion?

>>51795010
LOL, /lit/core

stop forcing microgenres
vaporwave happened because of people like daniel lopatin and vektroid doing their thing and then having tons of copycats. this sounds contrived and fucking stupid.

>>51795042
>>51795015
How about Discordianism?

>>51795033
see >>51794408

No critique of religion or critique of capitalism or nietzche oceangrunge shit. This will be epic and transcendental and as we create our Godhaze, we will all become one with the spirit of God, the highest power of the universe

Our religion is godhaze, we don't refer to any other

>>51795053
You're just mad because people are having fun and you missed your chance to make oceangrunge.

>>51790677

Everyone, I think trying to choose a specific religion or even specific image of god will result in more argument.

Godhaze is about our perception of God and how are beliefs are created based on our culture's image of God. This is not about a God, it is about all Gods and the effects they have on us

Also, I think you'll like the track I'm working on now

the art from black one is the aesthetic

>>51795094
i didnt miss out on anything.

>>51795077
So, what are the tenets of godhaze, O "Prophet".

>>51795077
>This

Godhaze should be about spiratual transcendence through music

>>51795094
No he's right, after vaporwave managed to happen through Floral Shoppe and the other tenets coming together and inspiring copycats, every asshole with an idea for a microgenre wanted to jump into the fray. See: Oceangrunge, sportswave, seapunk, and this.

>>51795053
na microgenres starting out on music forums like this is actually tons of fun for musicians to experiment with new ideas together in a pretty easygoing manner chill yo

>>51795077
You don't even realize that Poseidon in Chains is the only one who cares about Nietzschean ideology.

The rest of the oceangrungers are doing their own thing.

>>51795171
Don't forget Aliencore!

>>51795171
lmao seapunk came before vaporwave u egg

>>51795126
>2014
>not listening to oceangrunge

Wait. You're literally just making a new genre? Maybe it's because I'm on drugs but the concept of that is mind blowing

>>51795053
vektroid is a copycat. you meant to say james ferraro.

>>51795171
Oceangrunge is its own thing and happened much the same way this godhaze fad is happening now.

>>51795238
i don't give two hecks my point is it's another stupid genre like aliencore that is going to barely wheeze on by.

>>51795206
musicians can experiment without stupid labels on them

>>51795279
fuck off poseidon

>>51795237
If you mix aliencore and godhaze, you get Heaven's Gate...

>>51795268
Why?

Every genre started somewhere. Don't be pushed around by the mainstream radio tastes; make your own sound.

>>51795327
I dunno man. Just the idea of an entirely new genre is crazy right now. Like what cinstitutes a gemre

So, is this pretty much just industrial-influenced Gregorian Chant?

>>51795446
In Literary Studies, that's actually a huge part of the field. It's called "genre theory". The answer is: it's complicated.

Can we make some cat-pop I feel like it would be easier

Any recommendations for reading further into it?

just threw this together in 15 minutes, too oceangrungey?

>>51794873
Hinduism should be kept in because it would add something in terms of Sitars and Tablas. Otherwise ancient Judeo-Christian sentiments should be the primary focus

Why not Islam, the true monotheism?

>>51796035
>>51795980

if this is the direction of godhaze, then Lotus Flowers is definitely proto-godhaze >>51794664

>>51795980
When's your next oceangrunge album?

>>51796035
This is more vaporwave, chopped and screwed shit.

It goes against the original post.

http://lotus-flowers.bandcamp.com/track/--2

This track in particular is exactly what godhaze should be. If it isn't then the genre is dead on arrival.

Godhaze arrive soon

I like the "transcendence" aspect of godhaze. Godhaze ought to be the kind of music that can make you feel as though you are one with the divine (whatever that might be). Another term could well be "trancendental grungewave".

Then, we could invert it and create is dissociative and satanic twin, blackhaze.

>>51796090
Drops when its drops

>>51796199
We eagerly await it!

>>51796148
Holy shit, this.

What tools do I need to get on the godhaze bandwagon? I have some neat ideas involving Popul Vuh and Natural Snow Buildings.

>>51796188
Isn't this just recreating New Age and/or ambient music?

>>51796148
seconding this, this should be the prototype

>>51796118
i dont see anywhere in the original post saying it goes against it

>>51796235

Gotta agree, this sounds more like what I imagined godhaze to be than either >>51795980 or>>51796035

The other two are too much like Vektroid.

>>51794777
U FUCKING FAG I BET U TINK PUNK IS DEAD. IT ISN'T. HxC DEAD KENNEDYS FOREVER

So blackgaze without the metal. Just noise, texture and overwhelming brightness.

>>51796439
I'm pulling out the race, but my vote goes for Lotus Flowers. I could get into making something like that.

I WILL BE GETTING TO WORK TOMORROW MORNING.

>>51796307
Rough, but I enjoyed it. Maybe this could be cool.

>>51796481
Yeah, I'm improving it now. Drums are a little wonky and stuff

>>51796472
Is there a reason your track is already removed?

>>51796307
I like it
Not quite as orchestral as I would have liked but I think you did a decent job of capturing the transcendental feeling that this genre should have
A very good first attempt

Ok, explain to me what Ocean Grunge is supposed to be. These microgenres are becoming stranger and stranger. I long for the simple days of Chillwave and Witch House and Seapunk

>>51796450
Punk is dead.

Oceangrunge is reborn.

Poll results so far

Lotus Flowers (4)
Twistpillar (1)
Poseidon in Chains (0)
Wrath of God (0)

>>51796511
Oceangrunge is basically where the past of the 1990s alternative scene collides with the contemporary post-internet currents.

It's what happens when you reverberate grunge until it sounds like the ocean. Add sorrowful whalesong to taste.

It's as if the seapunks got bitter and turned to hard drugs.

>>51796307
best yet, i really don't want another formless ambient genre

>>51796334
i made wrath_of_god, i vote for twistpillar, if the idea is not having it be sample based, all the other ones are sample based

>>51796580
But I thought Poseidon doesn't use samples very much?

>>51796533
>http://lotus-flowers.bandcamp.com/track/--2
I vote for Twistpillar, by the way.

>>51796587
Thanks man. And I wasn't saying your music sounds like you weren't trying, just that you shouldn't give up on something because you doubt others will do it

>>51796587
Lotus Flowers is the only one that will actually catch on as a genre that people will make. Twistpillar is the wrong direction for this. I'm going to work on something like Lotus Flowers but with a greek orthodox influence instead of hinduism.

>>51796581
SERIOUSLY!

I'm going to be rockist for a second and say that we need "real instruments".

Pull out your Tibetan singing bowls, your chimes, your hand hand bells, and your church organs.

>>51796580
Got any samples?

Out of all the forced microgenres of the last few years, which one was the least successful, and which was the most?

remember sportswave or whatever that shit was called

>>51796619
That's bullshit, though. Twistpillar is the superior track. Also, stick to Oceangrunge, you unbearable faggot.

definitely Lotus Flowers

>>51796592
But Sea of Dogs does and he invented the genre.

Oceangrunge is still a nebulous term so we need more people working together to narrow the sound.

Right now, it is a weird intersection of three currents: drone/shoegaze, ambient/vaporwave, and rock/metal.

>>51796641
Well don't be mean, they're just opinions

>>51796632
Right now, oceangrunge is the most successful. The least successful was probably... either slap rock or sportswave.

>>51796613
no i understand i just thought it was coming from the post-internet realm of things, "which is the type of music i produce", so the direction its going in is something i dont really see myself doing but i still support it

Results are in, the people have spoken.

Lotus Flowers is the prototype for Godhaze with a landslide win of 6 votes to Twistpillar's 2, and 0 for the other two.

>>51796644
Sea of Dogs doesn't want anything to do with Oceangrunge though. He did it as a joke more than anyone else.

>>51796632
See >>51790677

>>51796692
Welp, there's me not being interested in involvement then.

>>51796693
So is this whole godhaze and aliencore shit but if people like it they will go with it.

>>51796712
Bye then, come back in a year when we're the hottest new microgenre and be sorry you missed the boat

>>51796681
>either slap rock or sportswave.
I havent even heard of these but I want too

Now that we have agreed on a sound for Godhaze, can we agree on an aesthetic and message?

>>51796692
twistpillar/just another fucking started the genre though, plus it's not shitty ambient, plus lotus flowers was made a while ago

>>51796727

slaprock was the best thing to happen to this board ever
rip in peace

>>51796757
I came up with the name godhaze in the last thread, so technically I started the genre. And I voted for Lotus Flowers.

>>51796692
lotus flower is sample based so it is immediately disregarded, twistpillar wins

>>51796757
This guy gets it.

I think the album art should be more minimalist, more like swans covers.

>>51796774
We're going with Lotus Flowers, the people have spoken. And Lotus Flowers isn't sample-based like vaporwave, it's just droning hazy shit with a sampled chant over it. Twistpillar's isn't something that can become a meme because almost nobody would take time to make it. It would be deader than oceangrunge

>>51796781
I like this idea

>>51796755
for visual aesthetic, the reason I used >>51796307 is because I think it would be nice to focus on original imagery (not stock art, no irony) with themes of transcendence, delirium, euphoria (inb4 memes), and enlightenment (also inb4 memes)

>>51796811
either its sample based or its not, which is it.

>>51796755
I think this genre should have more of a general focus on the divine instead of focusing on any specific religion.

>>51796811
If we contact someone like Birdmask, it could happen.

Have your heard his genre mash-ups?

https://soundcloud.com/birdmask/sets/an-evening-with-4chan/s-WmmoY

>>51796828
I agree with this idea, and >>51796781

Combine this with Lotus Flowers and you have a winning ticket

>>51796828
I'd like oceangrunge to move in this direction as well.
