I song I wrote in up-state new-york. Instrumental guitar as is often the case...
Trust
I've tried a couple different things with this progression, finally found something I can live with. Rock guitar, drum machine, and all that jazz. [more inside]
Lift Off Delay
Continue to vent my frustrations of daily life through hard rocking guitar for now... [more inside]
Times Tomorrow
Not my usual Genre but this fit my mood tonight. Just heavy guitar rock instrumental at heart...
The Bitter Lake
We're cheating slightly, as I've already uploaded a version of this song. But hopefully everyone will agree that it sounds a whole lot better. Plus we've added some (discrete) synth parts and have even gone to the trouble of making a video. More tunes on our Soundcloud.
cycle off
Just wrote this tonight...just your average guitar melodrama...
savory for me
Just an experiment of guitar electronic fusion I've been playing with. I'm planning on doing an album-full of these types of songs soon.
deeply listening
Spent the last year learning to program and had no time for music. Finally got a job and a new-ish life so I thought it's time to get back to some things I enjoy.
This one is different from my normal thing though I suppose I'v'e always had an attraction to analog merging with electronic. Maybe thanks to new order/joy division??? Though this doesn't sound anything like those.
The Guardian of Phobos
Piano vs. Electronics. Kinda epic even though it's not all that long! [more inside]
Hot Collie Bounce
WomenChildren
Guitar instrumental. Some slide. GarageBand on the drums.
newestboogie
A fist-pumper for the Friday drive home!
I Need A Good Day
I play bass in this power-pop-rock band called Buzzie. Song written by John McElhenney with minimal arrangement contributions by the rest of us. [more inside]
Hollow Words
A foot tapping piano-based rocker with some catchy riffs and pretty little intro that walks the line of being a little too long but IMO really sets the mood for the song.
Donald Trump is a Fascist Asshole Pig
It cannot be emphasized enough. Song #3 in my Unu Kanto Po Semajno series steals one from the Dead Kennedys' playbook. [more inside]

Riding Out
The road trip song - a galloping guitar ramble underpinned by soaring synth strings. By Sredni Vashtar
Supreme Gigs - Ten Gigs
[gigs]
wc
My version of a popular holiday favorite. [more inside]
Bitter Lake
Inspired by the Adam Curtis documentary, recorded with a variety of gear and 'mastered' using LANDR.
Breathe-Pigs-Cigar-Breathe (Reprise)-Great Gig in the Sky
A re-do of a Pink Floyd medley thing I posted a few months ago -- we got better at playing it and added a bit at the end. [more inside]
Someone Just Like You
The first track off of my new album with Teen Mom, called Groovy, that we released today. [more inside]
Road Race
Instrumental with big tunes and riffs, and a driving cadence that's perfect for cycling (especially if the weather should force you to ride indoors). Bandcamp download (with artwork).
Aircraft Recognition (live)
What a difference a few months makes. The original has been reworked and extended and was recorded live a few days ago on the London stage (the Alleycat in Denmark Street). A song by Sredni Vashtar.
Oort Cloud Rain
Another improvisational recording from 3-9-13, the night comet Pann Starrs 2013 first because visible in the Northern Hemisphere. We recorded in celebration of the celestial event. [more inside]
Tides of Sand
Alternative rock, 3 chapters, mix in progress, would appreciate any comments which I'd try to implement in the mix. [more inside]
Lama by @Ummagma
Two of my favourite bands in the world are Stereolab and Cocteau Twins and another band whose music I find greatly inspiring is Pink Floyd. This song is a pure project of this triangular love for these three bands. Enjoy!
Do You Feel?
Final mix. My on & off again pop Combo, Buzzie. I posted the live rough from the session back in Feb, and "we" finally got it done. [more inside]
Cuando Viene El Mal
A song from my new acoustic band Love Monkee, from our set at the His Lai Buddhist Temple last month. Special thanks to drlith, who translated the chorus for me in this AskMe. Video of the last half of the set. [more inside]
def dev puts @development end
Finished my online web dev course. It was time to relax and take a break from writing code...
Aircraft Recognition
Short and sweet. A song about aeroplanes overhead with minimal vocals. Live rehearsal recording by Sredni Vashtar
Where No One Has Gone Before
A little tune about toxic masculinity with a splash of Star Trek. [more inside]
BFD @Ummagma
When you live in a country where something called a 'melting pot' falls into play, you sometimes don't detect marked differences in sounds and influenced within the larger meld of rock music (maybe it's a little clearer for pop music - I'm not sure)... In any case, here is one track created at the foothills of Ukraine's Carpathian mountains... You may hear a distinct Carpathian whistle and even gamma in this song. I think it gives the song a distinct and tasteful 'ethnic' flavour. This is 'BFD' by Ummagma and I hope you will enjoy it.
Back to You #dreampop #shoegaze
When Sonic Youth surprised the whole world by pulling off the most amazing cover of a song by The Carpenters ever (I couldn't really fathom listening to any of the originals, to tell the truth), who would've thought what a big impact their version of 'Superstar' would have had. Still to this day, this songs is constantly referenced whenever people speak about Sonic Youth. Here's presenting one track with a similar vibe. 'Back to You' by Ummagma [more inside]
B'doo Deh Du
Dance-Rock Late-70's-type Instrumental. Maybe if Thin Lizzy and the Talking Heads were commissioned to write the theme song to CHiPs? The only lyrics are "B'doo deh du" and "Bah-Bah-Bah-Bomp!" [more inside]
Do You Feel?
Original Power Pop from Austin. Buzzie is an old band name, but with new membership. The current lineup spent 4 hours in the garage cutting demos 2 weeks ago - this is a rough mix of the live tracks. [more inside]
River Town
Where does one genre begin and another one stop? I'm asking myself the very same question every time I hear that this song is indie or pop rock or folk rock or dream pop. Well, whatever one calls it, I hope you enjoy this. [more inside]
Rock Transition
A rock transition for a project I'm working on.
As Clear As The Day Is Long
The first track from my solo album month attempt, my first track in a long time.
Human Factor
It's all in the lyrics with this song, though I think the tone of the music gives away quite a lot too. Indie rock with a progressive dreampop edge. Short and sweet :) This is our Ummagma - findable for search-happy folks at www.facebook.com/ummagma [more inside]
Oh, You...
A dig at nostalgia, kind of... [more inside]
Photographer
Psychedelica as embodied in music is not always about rowdy trippy cagey delivery and a catchy spacey or 'wow' riff…. sometimes psychedelica can drift unassumingly into the realm of melancholia, which is where this Ummagma song firmly rests. [more inside]
Colors
Dream dripping floating melting flying… All of these are feelings that might come to mind if you close your eyes while listening to this current track. Somewhere between the mellowest of Pink Floyd and the catchiest bit of Billy Bragg, I hope you'll enjoy Ummagma 'Colors'. [more inside]
BFD
A mix of cultures often results in something beautiful - interesting art, world views, beautiful babies and intriguing music. And you don't have to be from either of those cultures to appreciate how wonderful this can be. This song represents a melange of two cultural infusions - from Canada and Ukraine. This is Ummagma. Enjoy. [more inside]
Minimum Wage
Spidey sense tingled. Dashed this off.
White Light Music Night
We finally got around to re-recording White Light Music Night. The original version is here. [more inside]
The Phone Calls - Lucky Dave
Not much to say except that it's a kind of happy long weekendy thing.
Sun Jar
Here's a song that was posted a couple years ago of but is now all shiny and new and properly recorded. [more inside]
Learning web dev and reflecting on lifetimes lived long ago
I took a four week vacation, partly with the intention of recording some vocals for my many instrumental tracks.
However I spent the whole holiday learning web development and getting drunk in the evenings and recalling fonder memories of times past...
I only managed to record vocals one day for about 4 hours and it was almost a total loss. I only managed to get a single line down really. I wrote more lyrics but the takes for those were unusable.
Well, here it is for better or worse with the single line repeating over and over on a loop... [more inside]
The Loop
After spending a few years rehearsing and making rough and ready demos, Sredni Vashtar finally made it into a real studio last month. Here's one of them - the mix is still a bit rough so it works best on headphones. [more inside]
