This is a "solo" project that I started back in 2008. I really enjoy making music as a hobby, and I would really like to get my music to an audience. The overall genre is pretty straight-forward Hard Rock. I really enjoy experimenting with different sounds and ideas within and outside of the Metal genre, to make songs that are challenging to write, but most of all fun to play. I record, program and mix everything myself. I use s program for the drums, in which I write and sequence the parts. The guitars and vocals are all my doing. The songs are written about a variety of topics, like emotion, politics, and stories.
Deep 13 began in mid-2008. I started out in a band called Flat-Line, which started in 2004. In 2008, we graduated high school, and went our separate ways musically, while to this day remaining very close friends. I still wanted to make music myself, and I always wanted to do a solo project as it was, I just needed the right tools to do so. After I got the necessary programs for a home studio, I started recording my ideas. It wasn't until 2009 when the 1st Deep 13 album started taking shape. I felt I had enough practice with recording and mixing to start turning the many demos that I had into songs. After a year of recording, mixing, and balancing all of that with work, I released "Mutatis" in 2010. The album consisted of over 2 years of ideas, put into 12 songs. I was a very straight-forward hard-rock album, with a few experimental tracks. I was learning a lot of new things about mixing during this album, and as the mixing progressed, so did the quality. This album was very much a learning album for me, being the first album that I self-recorded, self-produced and the first that was self-written.
After a few months of recording with my other project with a former Flat-Line member, I started recording more songs for a new album. The new songs quickly turned into some of the most epic, heavy and dynamic songs I've written. On this album, I was very much a perfectionist. I kept going back over the recordings and changing certain things within the mix, and sometimes even the recording. I vocals on both albums were always the most time consuming, because my home studio is based in an apartment, so I had only a few times here and there to get vocal tracks. Once the tracking was complete, the remaining songs were mixed and have just now been finished. The new album, "Recurring Nightmares," is a darker and more dynamic album. I really strove to experiment more with the vocals, guitar and the more auxiliary aspects, like symphony. The quality of the mixing and overall sound shows that I've learned a lot more in the overall mix of a song, and I think that this album is some of the best sounding material I've recorded so far. The new album is out soon, and the new songs will be posted here very soon, as well.
Any and all listeners are greatly appreciated! Enjoy.
