- 0:58and it's it's going to be. I like it even better. But
- 1:02the first one. Of course, I'm making progress all the time and the
- 1:03music leaders are going to be much more no mystical and everything is going forward.
- 1:10So this is my you know, main focus is going to be in
- 1:14the moment. So I started actually making music as weird as it sounds,
- 1:19last year, wow, but yeah. But of course I've been on my
- 1:26live music be playing hither and everything like that, but really starting making making
- 1:32it. It was the last last year and it was all through my daughters
- 1:37because he wanted had to be making music maybe six seven years and many hundred
- 1:41songs, but see was afraid to put it out in the Spotify and other
- 1:45places. And I asked, I wanted to help her, and now,
- 1:47okay, what the hell I I can, So you do it. And
- 1:51I didn't even know before what did you put them out there? And I
- 1:55just make a few songs and just you know, just suppose actually fun protect
- 2:00and then after that it's it's you know, it went easier, and I
- 2:06wanted to make more and that's how everything started. Very good, mate,
- 2:09thanks for joining us to r We've been trying to catch up for a little
- 2:13while and it's taken until now to make it happen. Yeah, yeah,
- 2:16this is this is great that we finally had time. But you know,
- 2:21it's it's always always nice to you know, get these kind of experiences,
- 2:24and you know, for sure, yeah, for people across the globe,
- 2:30and you know, it's it's always it was very nice. Yeah, it's
- 2:32a pleasure to have you on mate, and so focused on your musical project.
- 2:37Maglidor should I and you recently released the album Lord of Chaos, which
- 2:40came out back on February sixteen. So how's the early reception been through it?
- 2:45People people likeing it? Yeah, especially in the Madness song. What
- 2:52was my first first single from the album? I know it went. I
- 2:54don't even know that. One day I checked my Instagram and is what the
- 2:59hell? It went into work place in the finish unofficial list and there are
- 3:02disbands like Corpical and everything like that. You know, it was first,
- 3:06but I was fourth played what the hell happened? You know, this is
- 3:08seven hundred different bands try to get in this list that I didn't I was,
- 3:13you know, So this is that I think people like this, this
- 3:16music, and you know, I'm also very satisfied for that album, but
- 3:21I, of course I wanted to develop myself and made more program than that.
- 3:25Why I think the second album is what I'm making Actually no, no,
- 3:30and uh, I hope to make it more mystical and brutal and everything
- 3:36like that. But yeah, people like like like this kind of music,
- 3:38especially in Field liked you know, everybody likes heavy metal and you know this
- 3:43is heavy metal country. So so I think so far, so good,
- 3:47and I hope that the other songs also reach more audience and people listening more.
- 3:52And sure So tell us a bit more about the album from a musical
- 3:57point of view and what you're going forward. Oh yeah, it's a it's
- 4:00basically more of a dead metal metal, but it's also they have lots of
- 4:06melodic other instruments, and it's it's not only dead metal, is also a
- 4:14little bit of black metal. But you know, it's a kind of a
- 4:17mix that it's just come out of me. It's not it's not you know,
- 4:20I don't try to do like some other band or something like that.
- 4:26Then comes a start of my head and out of my work. So it's
- 4:29it's it's what it is. But you know, I think it's more like
- 4:31a melodic death metal. Betwe twists of a black and draft metal, so
- 4:36even a little bit of bunk, I think. So it's a it's a
- 4:41strange mix, I guess, but you know that's what I like to like
- 4:44to do. Now, you mentioned a couple of times you mentioned the term
- 4:49mystic when you're talking about your music, Like, can you like right on
- 4:53that a bit more like what what what makes you music mystic? I don't
- 4:57know. I think it's I got those influencers from my you know, grandfather,
- 5:02grandfather and grandfather's brother. They were making, you know, they are
- 5:09finished a movie music, you know, composer they used to make in movies
- 5:15music. And I think there's I got some influencers from there, and I
- 5:19got myself very very much movies and music. So I think there's come something
- 5:25that you know, it's maybe those in my music, but you know,
- 5:29some influencers, So I think it's it's some it reflects that there, I
- 5:34guess. Yeah. So maybe Dory is described as a Starlo project. So
- 5:41does that mean that you write everything, you play all the instruments, like
- 5:44you do it all yourself. Yeah, everything everything myself, And it's it's
- 5:48nice sometimes the idea comes in the in the night or whenever. I don't
- 5:53care about the fence as if it comes to my mind, so we immediately
- 5:57do do that. Then you know, after that it's it's it's just what
- 6:00to do one song by time, and you know, it's that focus,
- 6:02and I usually I do the one song, you know, even sometimes I
- 6:08try my car or i'm training or whatever, you know, and just start
- 6:13to make it and then I stop everything else and that's just what's the song
- 6:16ready? And after that, you know, I could start to mix it
- 6:20and add some Wobo boards and something like that. So so it's it's it's
- 6:26actually everything I do myself at this moment. I hopefully I will get you
- 6:30know, I haven't sent any emails or something like that, but I hope,
- 6:33you know, some record label catch me and after that, it's it's
- 6:36it would be easier because I have to do all the marketing and everything myself.
- 6:40So it's it's a lot of work work to do. It would be
- 6:44And and what's like, what's the main reason, like did you just mentioned
- 6:47like the's I guess the ease of access when you want to do stuff,
- 6:49But what's the main reason why you're doing it all yourself instead of is something
- 6:54out band around you because I didn't know it's it's it's easier because when you
- 7:01have the feeling that they want to make the song something, you're going to
- 7:04start immediately make it. I had a few people be asking me that if
- 7:09I want to do songs with them, and of course I can do.
- 7:14And I'm very satisfied that people ask me. But I one time I heard
- 7:18that the project you know, the other guy is so placey because if I
- 7:26want to make the song, I just want to just do it and pus
- 7:28it ready. I have maybe you know I'm like that, you know that
- 7:32I want to just make it ready and I don't want to weigh and you
- 7:35know stuff like that. So because of course, if you have everything that
- 7:40works in your mind and everything, then it's just one to boosh it and
- 7:43make it ready. So of course there would be many many other people then
- 7:47it would be you know, different kind of projects. But of course I
- 7:50in the future, I think it's going to be there. M a lot
- 7:56of els. Was also make up made and Charlie on your home studios.
- 8:00So does that mean you handle mixing and production and like every everything you've done,
- 8:05done the whole lot. Yeah, yeah, everything here excellent thing in
- 8:09my own studio now, so in the basement and there's there's all kind of
- 8:13stuff and there's that matics maasic happening. I also mixed all the music videos
- 8:18here, and you know it's nice, nice thing to do. You're punishing
- 8:24yourself, right, You're giving yourself so much. I know we also have
- 8:31some social time, but you know this this is my so at the moment,
- 8:35so I'm most in this time now. So right A through the video
- 8:39side of things. Do you do you shoot your own videos as well?
- 8:43Or did you just edit them all? How many did you have? How
- 8:48many I have that? H did you ask how many videos I have?
- 8:54Or so? Did you did you film the videos yourself? Too? Like?
- 8:56Did you shoot the videos and film them? And you like you do
- 9:00the whole whole aspect of that as well. Yeah, yeah, from from
- 9:05scratch to until the all the way in. So I will I plant plant
- 9:09them and just make them. Of course I use some some you know,
- 9:13WEDEO programming programs. You know that I can mix at them and do it
- 9:18chas the color and everything like that. But yeah, I do the whole
- 9:22project myself. Very busy man, brother, busy man, I know,
- 9:28I suppose really doing everything. Like what part of it do you enjoy most?
- 9:31Do you like creating the music? Do you like making the videos?
- 9:35Do you like performing the music? Like rich rich one stands out for you.
- 9:39I think when when everything is ready, when everything is ready and and
- 9:45after they're mixing and everything, and then I just put the headphones in my
- 9:48head and you know, just listening and if I'm satisfied, then it's the
- 9:52most satisfying feeling what you can get so I don't that much, maybe enjoy
- 9:58the part of me making them. Of course, when it you know,
- 10:03when I see that it's going forward all the time. But when it's everything
- 10:07ready, then I feel very satisfied. And after that and if I'm happy,
- 10:11if I'm not happy in some some songs, I will change some barts
- 10:15and then you know, mixing and everything like that. So but eventually I
- 10:18have been happy for every songs in a Lot of Chaos and in the next
- 10:24album most of them. I'm trying to make the songs that I really like
- 10:28myself, but I like what I hear, so so that's the most most
- 10:33satisfying thing. Yeah. Yeah, I'm not sure if I've got this right
- 10:39or not, but I think you've got three more songs on the just out
- 10:43or coming out Dragonfly, Ultimate Metal and Breaking Dreams. Is that right?
- 10:46Yeah? Yeah, tell us about them dragon Flies. Actually people would put
- 10:56the music videos. It's it's very very you know, I'm very satisfied with
- 11:01that song also, but it's a song that uh, it's my mystical,
- 11:09mystical also and what the best song that I like from my Lot of Caves
- 11:15album is Broken Drips that people have been listening very much in YouTube. Let's
- 11:20just check, it's now been twelve days. I guess the YouTube when there's
- 11:24something like twenty four thirty five people watch them, and in many many people
- 11:30have sent me some you know, messages that it's this is this is something
- 11:33different and they have so, you know, the soft parts also there and
- 11:39you know this is my personal favorite from from the album. So that's you
- 11:43know, that's three songs on the album or they they part of the next
- 11:48title. I know they're on the album. Yeah, there's there's eight different
- 11:54songs in the album, and that's those sort of those are one of those
- 12:00all right, cool, cool. So you mentioned a new a new album
- 12:05already, so you just you just put this new one out. You're just
- 12:07gonna finish, you're probably wrapping all that up and then you're gonna go straight
- 12:11back in and do another one. I yeah, yeah, I think people
- 12:15is going to love this even more. This is you know, I and
- 12:18I have heard I played a few few times that I already finished making them,
- 12:24and I played a few more friends that are in the mental industry,
- 12:28and they said, this is going to be much better and you know,
- 12:33much more. Of course, we've got to put so much effort in time
- 12:37to this project, so I think this is going to be people like this
- 12:41even more. But it's everything. I put more effort in the next album
- 12:45because there's the cover art, everything, music, video is going to be
- 12:48really badass and everything is. But of course I like also the people have
- 12:52loved the Lot of Chaos album. Next album is going to be even even
- 12:56better. I think, awesome, Bran. What's the what's best place for
