  • New album from WMBB's Daniel Tompkins. Listen now danieltompkins...
    This is an absolutely stunning drum playthrough of White Moth Black Butterfly's 'The Serpent' by Mac Christensen, taken from their new album Atone. Buy here - found.ee/WMBB_A...
    OUT NOW ON KSCOPE!
    Kscope are extremely proud to announce that White Moth Black Butterfly have joined the label’s roster and the release of the band’s new album Atone on 1st September.
    On bringing White Moth Black Butterfly into the Kscope family Daniel Tompkins comments “WMBB signing to Kscope is nothing short of a privilege. We feel we have truly found the right home, where we can grow and develop with the help of a respected and hardworking team of people.”
    White Moth Black Butterfly are a contemporary pop project with progressive and experimental music at its heart; initially created by Daniel Tompkins as a creative outlet aside from his writing with TesseracT to indulge in his other musical influences ranging from Massive Attack, Enigma, Sigur Ros, David Bowie, Michael Jackson to Tool, Dredg and Thrice.
    On the evolution of White Moth Black Butterfly Daniel explains “What started out as a creative outlet has blossomed into a fully-fledged musical project. Writing music with Keshav, Randy and Jordan has been an inspiring and invigorating process and one that has allowed us to explore new sounds through contemporary vocal work and organic instrumentation.”
    The album is masterfully built on organic, textured and cinematic soundscapes, with two opposing themes of loss and hope. Tompkins explains - "Whilst songs like "Tempest" and "Atone" focus on faith and forgiveness, others like "Rising Sun" and "An Ocean Away" linger on love and nostalgia; throwing the listener into a bygone world of having less and caring more. The front cover artwork captures the beauty of nature and the harsh realities of life: power and dominance. White Moth Black Butterfly represents that very same struggle."

    Daniel,
    the cover of that beautiful masterpiece reminds me of that wonderful movie:
    www.imdb.com/title/tt5607714/
    Is there any connection between them?

      but the mix for a drum playthrough?

    • @yogieatsprog
      @yogieatsprog 7 лет назад +3

      Vocals are too loud, but I can pay attention and hear the drum parts anyway so I won't complain. :)

  • @aaronsaunders3918
    @aaronsaunders3918 7 лет назад +1

    I don't see the point of a drum playthrough video when the drums are so subdued in the mix at times they're inaudible.

    • @marstopia8992
      @marstopia8992 6 лет назад +3

      If you think this is subdued, try being a bass player. However I agree, some of the cymbals could be louder.

      It is not the mix, it is the file quality uploaded on the yt.

    Sounds great, but i half wish all the vocals were exclusively dan. This vocalist feels too (not quite completely, but fairly) emotionless, theres no changes its the same all the way. idk that might just be the style (like alot of pop music) or sound they're trying for, but its just too boring. This song would be awesome if you utilized your >mj level vocalist, instead of highlighting another lord/generic indy sounding female vocalist. Sorry, had to say something, otherwise great song.

      I think I know what you're saying. They are kind of typically 'pop' vocals, but I disagree. I think her vocals are beautiful. Now that the whole album is out, I really think the way that Dan and Jordan contrast each other is something unique and special. Vocally it's one of the best albums I've heard, ever.

      Lmao, never thought you'd reply to such a comment! I personally think the mix is 100% great. Hope the rest of the album sounds the same, because it will be simply amazing!

    • @SaiHarshadrummer
      @SaiHarshadrummer 7 лет назад +1

      Its not a bad comment because I never said I didn't like the song or the drums. Its just if the drums were little bit higher in volume wud have been cool.
