Hideous And Perfect Teaser

xtylish — Wed, 01 Jul 2009 22:16:00 +0000

Album cover and pre-sales to be announced July 8th.

Hailed as being one of the most innovative new industrial bands Angelspit return with a new album Hideous and Perfect, a confronting audio visual statement set to corrupt listeners the world over.
Hideous and Perfect promises to be Angelspit’s darkest release to date with its sonic textures ranging from hard pounding beats, to organic atmospheric samples, topped off by a feverishly powerful male and female dual vocal assault. The duo’s sonic exploration and creative process took them out of the studio, as they recorded much of the album’s pounding industrial percussion at an abandoned shipping yard in Sydney Harbour. They fashioned and sampled handmade acoustic and electronic instruments, imparting a unique organic sonic texture to Hideous and Perfect, while also giving a nod to the experimental roots of industrial music.
—
Hideous and Perfect is a vicious concoction of industrial guitar riffs, clever hooks and pathologically disturbed synths. Consisting of 12 harsh, heavy and deliberate tracks set to self destruct, Hideous and Perfect is challenging as it is catchy. Zoog and Destroyx’s turbulent vocal onslaught deals thematically with an apathetic cashed up society who are simply ‘bored to death’. Angelspit’s double edged lyrics can be poetically poignant, at other times witty, but are at all times severely potent.
—
Angelspit’s aesthetic concept is equally as iconic as their musical statement, as they continue to develop their fierce design and fashion aesthetic. Visually arresting photography and bold typography characterises the album’s striking artwork making Hideous and Perfect a defining album of the industrial genre.

RP – Being Modern

xtylish — Wed, 20 May 2009 02:45:00 +0000

There are plenty of ways to express writing through RPing on the internet using todays dynamic posting features available on all standard forums and sites. I think it’s not only important to use these modern tools, but also to think modernly and create new, creative, interesting ideas with them… ultimately making the glory that is RPing that little more entertaining.

But how can you do this?

It’s quite simple… just use what you can. Observe what you’re doing and relate it to the tools you have on hand. Mostly, I’ll be giving examples and trying to inspire new, interesting ideas for you to think on in this Blog entry.

Let’s have a look at what you’re most likely going to be presented with, shall we? In any decent forum or site, you’ll have access to basic formatting tools to customize your post to whatever style you want.

Basic Tools

This here is a basic tool bar and it’s the one I am using and have used to create all my previous SStylish posts. I have access to font type, Bold, Italic, Colour

Left Align

Right Align

Centre (the one I always use) and other things, too.

Most of these I access on-hand with easy keyboard shortcuts.

These tools can help enhance the viewers reading experience in a way that traditional books and writing do not use (most of the time). Some people have posting styles all together, where they will use a particular FONT for every post – but you must be creative and SIMPLE. Some users use different colours for dialogue within their RP post, or a colour/font/size change for each character or timeline or whatever!

Emphizing certain words can be a smart thing to do… as long as you know how to apply it smartly.

I’ll give an example for this. In a hentai RP that died pretty fast, I RP’d a female character with a cyber monocole that could gather all the information in front of her and then display it as data code to her eye. It’d gather info like the size of the room she was in, the people around her, their names and info and all sorts of stuff – but I really wanted to show exactly what TEXT she was seeing instead of just saying, ‘Info comes up and she sees the boys name is Jack.’

Then again I also couldn’t just start typing up random code in the middle of paragrahs as that would be unnatractive to the eye (in my humble opinion). So, I did something like this:

//observing…/
/…/
/…/
/data gathered, displaying…
///err.22×4/
/subject, line of sight, ID/
Name: Jack Sweet
Age: 15
Grade: B
Status: Offensive
-WARNING, COMBAT-
/Warning, Danger Ahead >> JACK SWEET//
–… end info.23 LOG

I hoped that this would’ve given a little dept to what was going on with my character. Not only, I was thinking modernly with not only the cyber monocle she was using (futuristic) but in its practical use. It was entertaining but it could also give me the excuse to know all the character’s names without introductions. This was important as it was a Hentai RP so nothing was very deep. It’s important to create aspects that relate to the actual environment and style of the RP you’re posting into, too.

Computer & Internet

Yeah, you heard me. You’re on a computer and have access to all kinda of media to use. You can use IMAGES to enhance the visual stimulus of the RP, too. These can be images of your character (if you have any) or backgrounds or anything you think is relevant. You could even post a plain box of red just to show the impact of a punch on your character! Really try to think outside the box and don’t feel pressured to implement any of these things, especially images. If you want to keep things to the imagination entirely, then avoid images : )

Sounds & Music can be used, too. I haven’t used sound in any of my RP posts for a long time now but I do think it’s good to get a certain mood across. In my RP site STS, a user named Lex once gave her RP post a link to a YouTube video containing rain sounds. She suggested it be played as a certain part of the RP and I must say it worked very well!

Another user, DJ the admin… he gives links to YouTube as well contain in the very text of the RP! These videos are of songs and he implements the links when he’s talking about what his character is listening to in his portable music player. This is a cool idea and very simple. It’s unique of him to put the links in the RP Eg: ‘Davix turned to the next song and continued to travel deeper into the dark city.’

You can also simply EMBED YouTube videos that some forums and sites allow… or you can even provide a raw link to the music file, wherever it is.

Going back to basic tools for a second… in an old RP I was involved in about time travel… I took the initiative to create a very logical character. He appreciated numbers and as such, if there was ever a number mentioned as in 1, 2, 3 then I would make them bolded to show their importance to the character. I could even make it so that all the numbers in the post add up to something significant… although I simply wasn’t REALLY interested in numbers personally to do such a thing.

I like to use Italic mostly for when I’m giving thoughts in a character’s mind. I sometimes do this without warning that the character has gone into a thought process but I enjoy that effect as it doesn’t hand-feed everything to the reader and forces them to realise that Alright this is what the character’s thinking… instead of me repetitively writing out:

‘What the hell’s going on? James thought.’

… and as a general tip, don’t use speech marks for thought even if you mention it is only thought right after it… it just doesn’t look good in my opinion.

And of course, use everything in moderation. Don’t saturate any posts with formatting or ‘features’ A post with lots of different coloured text, different alignments, different fonts, images, music, links and all that stuff splattered around the place will make the post too messy to enjoy. Good ole normal writing should still be your main focus and these entertainment tactics should be highlights and features of the post in a broad sense… not something that should need to be applied to every paragraph (unless the whole post is in a certain colour… or something)

Well that’s all I really have to say, I could go on and on about ideas and stuff but I really just wanted to give you an introduction to the possibilities of RPing online and what you’re capable of if you really expand on the creative ideas you have in your head with the tools we have these days.
