[15th of September 2023] k a i r y u β s h i n - β d a r k ~ r e e f β (triple album & birth of oceanpedal)
I just really wanted to make some oceangrunge music, and I've ended up with enough tracks for 3 releases I guess. However, I took a slightly different approach to making these three, and I'm gonna call that oceanpedal.
Before sampling, all original samples got the backpedal treatment. I took the samples that I liked, slowed them down and reversed. I did the same for drums in some cases. So it's like regular oceangrunge, just slower and with reversed samples. Goal of kairyu-shin project is to make sample heavy drone/doom metal music, so that was the approach I took with drums and arrangement in general. Keeping it simple and interesting.
Although oceangrunge is a dead genre, it's still getting made. Though I don't really like how most of these new releases sound like trap music. I prefer a lot more the POSEIDON IN CHAINS sound. So if you want to create some oceanpedal, follow the 2nd paragraph, and make sure that they sound a lot more atmospheric (and metal). I will probably also make a subreddit where you can share you oceanpedal tunes, since r/oceangrunge is down for a while now
Edit: I made the subreddit (r/oceanpedal)
