ljúshtaeshrhendlhë jecan glézma in hadlhaj & english

my least favorite part about what I do is hand writing the lyrics for trhä physical releases. it's literally so fucking tedious and when it's a song this long it takes forever. the good thing is that the more I do it the more fluent I get in actually writing hadlhaj and I can write it a lot faster because I've memorized the characters and I end up writing the words more naturally and less robotic  (like i mentioned in the lesson video hadlhaj has at leasy 178 characters [that's still in...

rpg'97 first demo

my hardcore band released our first demo. we recorded this in october. this is half of the songs we had written for our first show, the second half of the songs will be released maybe in january. we hope to record them all (plus a few more) in the studio and release a full album (witch better sound lol) although you all know I love lo fi. in this band I play guitar and sing on some songs.

sadness - 2010 flowers

you might notice this song sounds like it belongs on atna and that's because the acoustic guitar was recorded in 2018 (around the same time as daydreaming and hope you never forget). I forgot about this completely until I was looking through all my files for the unused music compilation. https://damianantonojeda.bandcamp.com/track/gminor-sadness-december-21-2018-2. this song ...

sadness - details in numbercolor

I'm having a hard time coming up with a title for this song. if before its official release I don't think of anything else it will just have to be this. this is going on a split album along with my song "histrionic and granted" which I shared here a while ago.

the song is built off of a beat I made in 2017 for my band east avenue at the time, and beyond an instrumental demo nothing was ever made of the song (except for this video View Post

I've been away from home for a while but I came back recently. didn't work on anything while I was away and now I have returned to being  very busy. before I left we started recording our first demo for my hardcore band rpg'97. it would be done by now but when I tried to record vocals yesterday I absolutely destroyed my voice and wasn't able to finish. hopefully I'll be able to finish that soon. the demo is 5 songs and we still have 5 other songs to record for a different demo. we're als...

trhä - endlhëdeënaj

there's a lot I could say about this song but I don't have time. my plane leaves in a few hours. this is going to be on the same album as the last 2 trhä songs I shared. when I have more time another day I'll talk more about this. round of applaus to my gf who helped me sing this

trhä - endlhënven

this morning I recorded (and finished) vocals on two new trhä songs, made a lot of progress on a sadness song vocally, and did guest voacls on a track by a finnish band (will post about when it's out). this is one of the trhä songs. this song and the last song I shared are on the same album and I think I'm going to call it endlhëdëhaj qáshmëna ëlh vim innivte. (steeping in beautiful orangemagic). endlhënven means orange winter and it's about the beautiful magical winter essence found ...

trhä - taj tu dëhajdsëja bë

I actually finished this weeks ago but I didn't share it because I wasn't sure if I wanted to add vocals. probably not going to end up doing that, and even if I do I guess you can still listen to this version. I'm going on a trip for two weeks so in that time I won't be able to work on music or anything but I'll be open to answering questions on more Q/As and I'll take requests for publishing lyrics/song backstories/deep dives.

liminal dream 2016 songs actually talking about them

https://liminaldream.bandcamp.com/album/unreleased-demo-2016 when i posted this I dind't feel like actually talking about it. as the title suggests these songs are from 2016 and previously unreleased. at the time I would've wanted them to have vocals but I never did that for some reason, so I consider them unfinished, but thinking of them as instrumental tracks they are complete enough to wher...

"idiôm" has been inactive for years and I don't plan on bringing it back. it was like my "beats" project. not super interesting. in september 2016 my cousin visited me in oak park from mexico and we made this whole album. his project is Diagonal Once (highly recomended). this is an entirely collaborative eff...

I remastered this just now so it can go to spotify etc. pure ambient. the word "nänmëë" basically means this trancelike, lucid dreaming state. a feeling I associated with the imagery I tried to capture, things like dreamscapes, vast open landsapes, nighttime. this album literally means "night" (this is a really old version of a language I had been inventing since 2...
