My second output!

Dominik Gräber · Jul 5, 2021

Hey friends! Quite happy to share with you my second full length instrumental!

I am especially proud of it because this time around I did all recording, fx, drums, mixing and the artwork myself. The song itself is nothing crazy, though I hope it tells a story to those who actively listen. Wrote it as a backing track for one of my upcoming leathercraft videos. Those of you who follow my work probably know which one.

Thanks a lot to Master @Radu-Cristian Perde for reviewing this track in the demo stage and giving me feedback.
Now your feedback is more than welcome too!
Cheers

This is AMAZING! I felt a vibe from The Thing That Should Not Be by Metallica, everything is very well done, congratulations!

Really awesome, dude!

Love the new age style intro. I was half-expecting some lounge music. It's a very mood-inducing song, I'll give you that. I like it overall. Gives me some video game vibes as well.

Ok, first of all Respect my brother! It takes a lot of effort and heart to do this and I am really fucking happy for you. As to story.....I feel like with the underwater effects its is somebody drowning and then seeing this mythological Beast..The Kraken...and then running (or rather swimming) for his survival....

It can also just be the theme song of the Kraken...Going through the ocean like....Yes I am a Kraken BITCH!

Hell yes Dom!!! I loved it! It could totally be in a movie soundtrack

Thanks!! Although The Call of Ktulu was more an Inspiration than The Thing that should not be. However both are about the same topic and I feel honored being compared to Metallica

Thanks brother! That could totally be what happens. I want it to be open to the listener.

To me, the Story begins with a ship on the Edge of a storm. The Kraken at the Floor of the ocean awakens and rises up to sink that Lone, lost ship

Big congratulations Dom! I agree with @Christian Schulze , it takes a lot of effort and heart to not only create a piece of music, but produce it and create the artwork yourself. You have grown a lot as an artist and musician and you make us all proud. Keep them coming! It's only gonna get better from here on out!

Oh my god I love it ! I’ve not peeped the other responses yet so I hope I’m not reiterating anything but this is awesome. The waves you took my favorite sound in the word and made me scared of it lol. Kudos.
I love how the beginning is kind of chill but has a foreboding feel to it and then when it cuts to an almost silent feel (even though there’s still music) it made me think of the “calm before the storm”, then it goes into what I would describe as a feeling of mystery and intrigue. Like, If I were seeing a kraken creeping up…. I’d be interested but kind of scared and then it all descends and it’s like, “oh shit ! I’m about to be fucking eaten” lol.
Amazing job !!!
im going to go back and read the other replies now. Lol.

I've been so eager to listen to this the past few days and I'm now lying in bed in the dark having this underwater monster adventure in my head. Such a cool piece of music, man! I love how you've layered the guitar parts, and that bass tone is just filthy
