This is a translation of a post from Krolikov's personal blog - sillystrings.ru

So now it's Zerointerno's turn to amuse you with a small playlist, consisting of music that inspired him to compose the beautiful and eerie music. Here's what awaits below: DOOM2, goth-girl metal, obscure neofolk, BURZUM the revered and many more.

Influences, part I

This is a translation of a post from Krolikov's personal blog - sillystrings.ru 

Some time ago when I was setting up a Myspace (sic!) page for GFM, I came across the "Influences" form. I still don't know if I got it right, but I put there a small list of music that inspired us to record "Visions". That myspace page seems to be forsaken, so I figured I'd post some examples of those inspirations here. Zeroinerno's stuff will come in the next post. You won't find any surprises in here, but it paints a picture though.

Soundcloud downloads

Hey there.

It's been less than a week since publishing our latest mini-album "Draft" and we've been getting a lot of feedback both from old friends and new people from all over the world. Thank you all for listening and spreading a word!

We've got a word to put out though. As you may have noticed, the files downloaded from the "Draft" Soundcloud page are not so pretty - one is a .wav, another is .mp3, no ID3 tags, no attached covers. Sorry about that - we didn't pay enough attention to that due to being overexcited at publishing the work that lay dusty on a shelf for two years. Here's an alternative download link with both tracks in mp3 with neat ID3 tags - http://www.mediafire.com/?ms2ghitsg13v1nt (18Mb,.zip archive)

Another note regarding Soundcloud - we've come across a British band called Gynophagia, who recorded an excellent tribute album, containing cover versions of various "proto"-dungeon synth tracks. The reason why we're making a mention of them here is the fact that most of those sounds greatly influenced us. So kindly get your virtual ass over there and give that excellent record a listen.

Yours fraternally,
Krolikov of GFM
