So damn good! Reminds me some of the coolest allusions, like Prokofiev's Dance of Kingts at the end of Only Ash Remains by Necrophagist. I would absolutely love to hear album of modern death metal rethinkings of classical music... this is almoust to good to be true.

2016-01-20 10:05:38 +0000 UTCI guess I was just confused by the amount of strings on it. Everyone seems to have a Chapman these days, on Youtube. It's weird.

2016-01-18 18:53:10 +0000 UTCI assume this is the new signature, then. It's quite pretty.

2016-01-18 14:47:21 +0000 UTCVery nice transition to metal. Wondering what Bach woud think. Anyways, I like the sound... I guess it's the HumBACHers...

2016-01-18 11:04:20 +0000 UTCThanks! This, as well as nearly all of my stuff nowadays (especially the metal stuff) is programmed. Metal wise, I hire Nick Pierce of Unearth to program them and he does an incredible job. Works closely with Fluff too. Way back I'd always have real drums that I played. But nowadays I live in an apartment in the city. So unfortunately it's just not feasible for a lot of reasons. And even if I did, for these types of tunes I'd rather hire a real professional metal drummer if I am able to.

2016-01-18 01:21:54 +0000 UTCReally nice ! I have a question for you: are the drums real or do you use a software ? And if so, which one?

2016-01-18 00:45:00 +0000 UTCBach was clearly metal as hell.

2016-01-17 21:15:15 +0000 UTClols The idea. But soon became clear that the wig was a must.
Rob Scallon
2016-01-17 19:17:28 +0000 UTCWhich came first, the idea or the wig?
Preston Fraser
2016-01-17 19:16:57 +0000 UTCHahahahahah thats true :p or were is the orchestra hiding? :p and probably bach would be really fine with this because he just wrote majority of his music as a courtcomposer somewhat to be seen as ghostwriters and producers nowadays they create what people like nowadays as bach did in his days :)
Aitor
2016-01-17 19:16:44 +0000 UTChaha thanks! It would be amazing to somehow know what he would think of this I guess the main thing he'd ask is "What magic did you use to put yourself into this piece of glass?"
Rob Scallon
2016-01-17 19:11:37 +0000 UTCCouldn't do this video without the wig haha
Rob Scallon
2016-01-17 19:09:57 +0000 UTCAs a classical guitarist i should hate you now for unpurifying bach haha :p but i dont its great he would have loved it :p #classicalmusiccanbefun thanks for making this it will let people get to know music they wouldnt have known elseways. hahah the resemblance with you and bach is unreal :p
Aitor
2016-01-17 19:07:28 +0000 UTCRob, nice take on Bach! Nice wig, too. :)
