If you got something to ask from the band or want to know something about the band use this topic!
FIRST READ THIS TOPIC BEFORE ASKING

Boing! Good one mump
-
I'll be online very often so ask away if you like.
If you think that I'm gonna just "leak info" you're barking up the wrong tree =)
-
do you have any figures of how often you albums got sold?
I suppose you know at least how many copies of DXM you sold, but with the "real world distribution (:P) of redeemer that'd be more difficult. Maybe UE only?
-
I think maybe 4000 copies of Redeemer, both versions. Gordon probably knows better, but that's my guess.
-
Not really a band question but since noone else is asking anything:
Are there any games featuring a Hubnester soundtrack to be released in the near future?
-
This goes to more each band member then the band as a whole; If you were to right now make a Machinae Supremacy "Greatest Hits" album with up to 13 tracks, what 13 tracks would you put on it and why? ... you can include Overworld tracks if you want ;D
-
What's the most odd thing you guys did to get a certain sound effect?

I once used a NES-cartridge plastic folder and the cartridge to make a draw-gun-out-of-holster effect. :)
-
Haha, sweet. You should put those things on video, its awesome, and fun for you guys too later ;p
-
Umm... I'm not sure, bu I feel I did hear the Machinae Supremacy -version of Britney's "Gimme more", was it just a delusion of my mind, or did the radio anouncer get it wrong, thus I have been unable to find any record of such? o_O

Call the radio station then ;)
gimme gimme *blirr*

ok, I guess I'll try to rephrase it so it doesn't sound like I'm trying to get more album info:
If you were to right now make a Machinae Supremacy "Greatest Hits" album with up to 13 tracks of songs that have been released so far, what 13 tracks would you put on it and why?
-
Well, you know it's actually kinda hard to answer a question such as that atm.
If you think of the fact that we are only listening to the new songs so that we can do a great live performance, choose what songs to play and in what order to play them and so on, the only things on our minds atm is just the new songs.
I guess you'll haf to come to our next gig and find out would be the current correct answer for me at least atm.
That answer isn't really satisfactory, I know, but its the best answer I can give you.
-
Osweet.
As a casual question, what are your influences in songwriting and general sound?
Do you game much still?
-
Playing videogames is still a major part of our lives.
As fore inspiration I can just answer for myself.
I get inspiration from a lot of places. Korn's baseplayer has one of my favourite sounds. Dustbrothers got the rythm I want.
When I hear a sound I like I get inspiration from it, as it was with Gazus song here: http://bracagazus.free.fr/tracks/crushcrushcrush.mp3 (http://bracagazus.free.fr/tracks/crushcrushcrush.mp3) .
It wasn't actually the song that inspired me as much as the sounds and the rythms.
Listen too the Fight Club soundtrack while drinking coffee with a tad of whisky and smoking a cigarette at the same time as you're playing Got The Life and looking at ingame fotage from Silkworm. That's my kung fu.
And don't you dare ask me about Silkworm and then try to call yourself a gamer =P
-

-
what's the oldest still working console and game that you have?
AND if you do, does it need some kind of tricks and special techniques to make it work properly? (for example: my friend's NES needs to be turned upside-down to make it work)
it's not a music related question but I'll ask it anyway ;D
-
In that department Dezo owns us all. He's got a Gizmondo. :)

hmm they are not that old...but i certainly never knew they existed until now :P
Oldest i have is an actual full size pong table (its a large table kinda thing with a screen in the top and a glass cover...with buttons on each side...
I use my good ol' Dreamcast to play NES/SNES/Genesis/Atari games via Emulation :P
-
Virtual Console on my Wii is my oldest console. :)
-
The oldest thing I got is an Commodore VIC-20 with 64kb memory expansion!
I just jack it up to a crt and it works as a charm.

Have you ever got any response on your cover songs (Gimme More, Freestyler, ITTY) by the original artist?
-
Do you know what the results of the Redeemer RE's sales are after about more than one year ?
And if yes, what are they ?

Chrono did a ton of the awesome signatures floating around here. Including mine.
Are there any laws that require you pay royalties to artists or songwriters when doing covers? For example, Gimme More? If it ends up on the album are there royalties or other issues that conflict with simply tossing it on the album?

That all depends on the agreement the original creators gave them. They had to ask permission to use the song most likely, but i doubt they would have to pay royalties.

About how much would it actually cost to fly to the US (or even just the UK, if that's more feasible) and put on a concert? I know the idea's been joked about, but it'd be cool to have numbers, just so we could get a sense of reality.
How did you guys learn to play your respective instruments?
-
Single trip from stockholm to New York costs 13.600skr. about 1300euro.
If we're going to take the instruments with us you can be sure that it'd cost 30euro á kilo.
I picked up a bass and started playing.

I think maybe 4000 copies of Redeemer, both versions. Gordon probably knows better, but that's my guess.
Isn't it a little disappointing ? I mean, the MaSu community out there is so big, I thought you could easily sell like 15000 copies of the album, seeing how huge your fanbase is.

That's what i thinks too (i ordered the two versions of Redeemer) But don't worry, MaSu will conquer the world !

If a bunch of fans were somehow able to raise money to fly you guys to USA to play a show or two would ya'll go for it? There are some very dedicated fans over here, we could do it ^-^

ofc we would come. =)

yeah, but remember you need to fill up an entire venue (or close to) with people who WANT to see them play live. as cool as you think it is, i don't think the bands up for playing to only five or six of us :P
-
lol true that. And that is why I'm on a mission to create band flyers, stickers, whatever I can make and completely post everything throughout Virginia. Hopefully I can get my peeps in the Fanbase on Myspace to do the same in their State. The sound of MaSu will spread!!!!!!

They are all bands that Robert and a few other members of MaSu were involved in before the band we all know and love was formed.

One little questions, the tracks I've found in this parent directory mentioned on the site is everything (or a big deal of what) they made?

As far as I know that's all there is. Or maybe Rob thought the other tracks weren't worth uploading. They were just projects after all.

Now now kids this is a thread for questions so let's take the arguments elsewhere. And who cares if he didn't search, it's not that hard to answer a simple question. :P

This is exactly what I meant. Instead of bitching you could've simply answered the question. I would've done the same, even if I hated you or something.
Who's bitching now? Searching doesn't hurt.
Me, I agree. If I did not I would never let know what I think about it, so I had to.
Anyways, on to the questions I guess? Or do I kill the discussion now by screaming ONTOPIC?
-
No. Someone link him to Eloj's FAQ please!
-
I have a question.
Are the songs on Overworld in the 4-5 and a half minute range like alot of songs on Redeemer, or do you plan on making them longer to compensate for a lower ammount of tracks? or shorter even?
I don't really see it as a huge problem to give a general idea of the track lengths, but if dezo decides to remain silent, then that's alright.
-
hmmh i could answer this but ill let the band say if they want it public :)
-
No. Someone link him to Eloj's FAQ please!

:)

ok, some answers from me then.
Masugn is teh coolest band ever created in sweden. Kahl (the legendary), Emil (miss him :*() and Rob (the one...) <-- the masterminds of Masugn. I guess it was in the later parts of the 90's.
Lifeforce is Kahls project. Mithra is singing, I did guitars for one of the songs. I think the whole thing is rather sweet and it shows that Kahl is a true master of music and can create whatever he wants to.
FLAK is Unreal Tournament music.. Music to gib to. ofc pun c as hell and fun as hell. Kahl, Rob and Me. I think Tomi did some shit on some songs too. FLAK is just sweet fun =)
Garden of Concrete is Roberts old punk band. Helluva live act imo. I still miss them days... ofc I did play pop/rock back then, so I have moar fun now =)
Overworld will be a complete album. You do not need to worry about the minutes and seconds. The songs are about 4 mins anyways.
-
Ah, gotta check out FLAK too than. I thought this FLAK page would be a page with all kinds of songs in FLAK-format. Or is that FLAC? I don't use it anyway. Going to check it out right away. Thanks for the FAQ too. ;)
Now that's one hell of a great FAQ! :D I haven't quite figured out how to pronounce Machinae, I still think it's Latin so I stick to the Latin pronounciation.
-
Well, in all the songs it's pronounced like the english "machine", so that has become standard.
http://forum.machinaesupremacy.com/index.php/topic,1957.msg67010.html#msg67010 ;)
What happened to that Emil guy?
And Masugn is really cool... I haven't found any other band with a style at least close to Masugn...
So, dezo, you were in FLAK, too? Uh-huh... :)
-
What happened to that Emil guy?
no idea. I didnt really hang out with him much, just some wild partys and stuff.
-
Maybe he shot himself in the foot and decided to crawl back to kansas.

With deze as new base player, what songs on Overworld are done by you and which are done by Poe?
Did you change some of the songs on Overworld that were preivously done by Poe?
-

This has already been answered once, so I'll save the guys some time and give you the short answer:
All songs that Poe had recorded stuff for have been redone with Dezo on the base.

What about KMFDM? There musics always reminded me of them.
er, ontopic: Did you guys (the band) try anything you haven't done before music wise on Overworld. Or is it all straight forward SID metal (i.e. Empire was something very different coming from masu), not that theres anything wrong with that.
-
Do you guys watch Hockey? Hockey is awesome, and MaSu is awesome, so it only makes sense.
-
Whoa. Sorry but i have to interfere.
H-hockey?
I would watch for the girls in the tight pants but for the actual game.. hell no.
Quake, unreal or starcraft is awesome

:D so I'm going to take a wild guess and say its Gimme More SID. If so, will it be a 'cover' video too? will it involve robert and a C64? If not, what song will the first video be?
-
As I warned in the Forum Rules thread, there is a stricter enforcement of rules in Band Discussion. Therefore I've deleted some spam/offtopicness/useless content in this thread. Stay on topic and don't clutter up the forum. Understood?

OT (Sorry WereVolvo, but I HAVE TO! :( ): OVER NINE THOUSAAAAAAND!
Seriously though, Dezo, pretty please, say what song the video is? :>
-
I do not do requests. I leak info when I feel like it =)
-
That is so mean :(
Robert said once he would make a list with all the songs on Overworld, what they're about and what previous MaSu songs they're like.
What happened to that list? I guess you eated it :(
-
Y'know... I think I would actually prefer waiting until february and hearing the songs themselves rather than having someone explaining what they are about...
It's kinda like getting the ending spoiled on an anticipated movie or something, I like to see for myself and make my own opinion over adopting somebody elses. Approaching the new stuff with an open mind and all that stuff.

-
ONTOPIC!
or I may just decide to go on another deletion spree
-
Will you guys be changing the guitar tone for every new album from here on in? to sort of keep it fresh?
-

That depends on the songs.
We use a sound that fits, that's all.
-
Does Overworld have a song where Erica from Inja sings?
-
will the album contain many contrasting sound genres?
Like...looking back you have alot of calm stuff, heavy stuff, ambient stuff, orchestra stuff, mixer stuff, themed stuff, etc.
-

yes erica does backing vocals in some songs :)
-

I guess the answer to that question will haf to wait until you hear the labum. imo it's all machinae, but I guess it's possible to read some stereotypical genres and stuff into the songs if you care about such things.
-
Then let me ask it like this.
"Will the album have a lot of variation?"
-
Then let me ask it like this.
"Will the album have a lot of variation?"
Not a lot. Some variation.. a little moar sid here, a little less orchestral there.
-
What influences your music/lyrics and why a SID chip?
-
was the album mastered in a way similar to the RE of redeemer?
-
yes it was, and if I remember correctly, the place also was the same (Studio Fredman)
edit*
- and so I stand corrected, again -
But in comparison "mastered in a way similar to RE..." the essentials between the ue and re versions of the last album remain; everything is a bit louder/compressed/limited/enhanced/less dynamic.
-
it aint mixed the same way same place but mixing is quite alot different how it sounds ;)
-
Ok, here goes with my question for the band...
Have you guys ever thought about having tracks as DLC for games like Guitar Hero and Rock Band? As that would seriously rock my world (and my plastic guitar/drum kit (when the game comes out in the UK))
Also, while I think about it, whatever happened to the 'I listened to Machinae Supremacy when they were still underground' tee? I didn't get a chance to order one before and now it's not in the shop :-(
-
The album was mixed in the same studio as last time, but mastered in a different one. This time, it was mixed in Studio Fredman and mastered in a studio called Tailor Maid.
As for the merch and stuff... It seems our latest batch of tees weren't very popular so maybe we did something wrong. We overestimated the people who would want a "sid"-related t-shirt, cause it seems there aren't that many after all. So we'll go for something more accessible in the future, like the "ELITE" tee which was very popular. Who knows, maybe we'll bring it back to life. ;)
Stuff that's in the shop WILL go away. If you are planning on getting something, and don't get it ... We don't know that. :) From our perspective, it would seem not a lot of people are interested, regardless how many are _planning_ to buy it.
So with time, less popular items will disappear and we'll try to bring in new stuff and see how it is received. Sorry if anyone missed a chance with something, but we can't have a big selection. We can't keep all prints and just expand, we don't have time, room or the money for such an operation. We need to keep it small to be able to do it.
-
Oh, and we would love to make content for Guitar Hero or Rockband. If any of the publishers who hold the rights / licenses or whatever you need to do it would let us, we'd be there in a flash.

I actually made a topic on the forum a long time ago to try and get you guys in number 3 and there were actually more people who knew about you than I thought, but it didn't really get anywhere. I think I'll try and contact the publisher when I get a chance and see if they bother replying. :)
Oh yeah forgot to mention I uploaded Fury (thanks Alix) for them to listen to but only a few people even bothered. I just remember one guy saying your voice was worse than Axl's, which I completely disagree with. :P
-
If I remember correctly, Neversoft was able to get labeling rights to a majority of the Recording companies, which I'm pretty sure included Spinefarm. I'm digging into research now to see if its true. Now, onto my question. Hmmm, a bunch of my random questions have been answered. Gotta think on this one. Eh, what's your favorite Movie Genre? Horror, Action, Drama, Comedy? Also, in addition to that, what is your favorite current movie and favorite movie of all time?
-
Well I sent an e-mail to Activision and Neversoft so maybe they'll contact you guys if we're lucky! Or maybe you should try contacting them... ;D
-
imma contact the sales representative for activition this week... he's Danish tho, so we'll see how much he cares for a Swedish band with a finish lable.

Yeah you're the man! If MaSu was in GH I think I'd die. Hopefully they will pay attention to my e-mails too.
I think the songs that would work best are Fury, Kaori Stomp, or Return to Snake Mountain, mainly because with the solos and overall guitar rhythm they would go along with the game well. If you do end up in the game, please make it one of those songs and I will love you forever (not that I already don't ;))
-
I'd play any song, cause cmon, it's MaSu, and cmon, it's GH3/Rock band.
put them together and you get a lethal dose of elite.
btw I vote for Skin, as the song used. then again... you guys could maybe have your own 3 pack if you're lucky... or... a full album, like some bands are doing for rock band.
Question, if any of you (band members) could choose the songs yourself, which 1 (or 3) would it be?
-
Yeah but think about how they would be incorporated into the game. The three I mentioned would probably be the most fun/challenging in terms of playing them on the guitar. And if it absolutely had to be from Overworld I'd pick Violator, but I don't see any reason they wouldn't want to use their older album material. I still stand by my original three.
-
Oh, and we would love to make content for Guitar Hero or Rockband. If any of the publishers who hold the rights / licenses or whatever you need to do it would let us, we'd be there in a flash.
Sweet! I'll be sure to send an e-mail over to Activision and Harmonix about this ;D
I can't say I've got any particular picks for songs I'd want to see but given that Player One is my favourite I'll go with that, but the thought of having the whole of Redeemer to rock out to on guitar/drums would just blow my tiny British mind ;)
EDIT: I've just fired an e-mail off to Harmonix, Activision and Neversoft. Hopefully someone will read it, listen to you guys and realise as I did that MaSu in their games is a great idea!
-
Harmonix no longer makes Guitar Hero games so you probably wont be getting an e-mail from them. :P But yeah I also sent the other two e-mails so hopefully Machinae will make an appearance! :D
-
what are the tuning's in dezo's bass? what about effects used in overworld
-

Harmonix do make rock band though... and that would be better cause it's clearly a superior game :P
-

I will keep that a secret. If you by any chanse meet me at a gig I'll tell you.
lemme say like this: I do some fsked up things with my instrument sometimes.. and it hurts like hell to do it =)

Quick question.
Is it legal to post a tab on the forums if the album is not out yet? Just wondering before I go and get the RIAA at my door for this.

you can not release unreleased material at the forum. You'll haf to wait until 13:th feb.

Then that'll give me time to tab everything out by then, so i can please the masses.

Harmonix no longer makes Guitar Hero games so you probably wont be getting an e-mail from them. :P But yeah I also sent the other two e-mails so hopefully Machinae will make an appearance! :D
Harmonix do make rock band though... and that would be better cause it's clearly a superior game :P
The only thing that makes it fun is the drums, I heard the guitar sucks. I still think GH is better.
-
what are the tuning's in dezo's bass? what about effects used in overworld
I will keep that a secret. If you by any chanse meet me at a gig I'll tell you.
lemme say like this: I do some fsked up things with my instrument sometimes.. and it hurts like hell to do it =)
and the chance to meet you is one in a billion...
ill cut someone for this!

hi my fav band!
i like to ask you one technical thing, sorry for my english, im from hungary. so.
i've read aeons ago, that you've recorded your tracks using guitarport i think. and you've recorded only the drums in the studio. here in hungary, me and my band would like to buy some stuff for recording music at home, and they say I ask you, which programs, what kind of soundcard and other technical details do you use, because your sounds kicks our asses. if you have time to answer, please write to us something useful information about these! thanks, and greetings from hungary :)
i will manage a concert for yours here as soon as possible :P
thanks a lot!

I have a question. When givem more was first played, I asked who did the guitars, rob told me Gibli did all the guitars
Did Gibli did all the guitars (lead and rithim) for the recording of overworld?

Nah m8. I just use a B string with a bit moar phatness. Imma do something much cooler on the next album.. or if I mebbe do a web release song. I haf to buy a lot of new gear tho, so by all probability I'm going to be ready with my ultimate sound in 2 years or so. Don't expect anything anytime soon tho. The cost for my little scheme is about 7000-12000€. that's soooo not my priserange atm =(

So a tab for Edge And Pearl would be perfectly legal then, since you've released the actual song?

Heres my question. If I ever get the bloody money to fly down to Sweden for a Machinae gig (US to Sweden = FULL OF LOSE $$$), you gunna have a few beers with me Dezo? :P

That's what I call inspiration, hangin out with dezo! My ultimate goal this year is to get down there, so I'll let ya know if I see light at the end of the tunnel.
I WILL get some autographs, so help me! Plus.. I've seen alot of bands live, to have have seen Machinae live is blasphemous!

Since my question got split from here:
When can we expect a high-def version of the video?

Any info about the kulturens hus gig in february?

yes alot actually but ill let the band inform when they want to do it

Listening to the songs I came to think of a few questions that bugged me a great deal. So, here goes.
First of all, I presume that some song names are based of off game titles ( Sid Icarus = Kid Icarus, Need for Steve = Need for Speed), is this correct?
d(^_^)b
-
SPOILERS! D:
Be careful, not everyone downloaded the rip, I did though, but not everyone. D:
Bocom is right. You'll only be able to have your question answered about that part of that song after the official release.

...OK, sorry about that. It was stupid. And pointless. I guess I'm just high on Overworld.

That'd make my day, playing Jet Grind Radio (I only have the first one) with Machinae playing in the background. It'd be weird without all the J-pop songs though. :P (The original has a REALLY weird soundtrack)

Nah. They figure they're going to retire now.

Well we know rob is thinking about it.
So my question, destined to wither away and die for lack of sustenance, is the following: what direction next? overworld was to be the dry crunchy album, and wild success ensued. how does the band feel inspired now? orchestrally? harmonically? gothically?
like doing a bunch of rearrangements of old webography classics to make some easy moneys? *cough*
-
You released a retail version of Fury, which was very cool, and I want to know . ¿ Is there any chance to release retail versions of 'Kaori Stomp' and 'Empire' ? I love both songs !
Thanks.
-
We have not any plans on redoing any old ongs atm.
Focus on the new album for now and let the future show what songs we release.
I ain't saying that it's impossible, just not atm.
-
I think a new song titled "Drakonis" is in order. Yes, I can see a song simular to Nemesis in style. Only it's about a badass dude named Drakonis. I bet he's so cool.
Anywho, my question:
If I ordered a couple shirts with my Overworld preorder, are they going to ship seperately or will they all ship together once Overworld is released?
<3
-
then remake i know the reaper and call it i know the mumppis

We'll ship all together as soon as we get overworld in stock.

Some time earlier you were saying there were several songs that never got onto the albums. Any chance these would be finalized and released as web-releases?

It's tough using that phrase and not wright 'Gordon'. OH SHI-
-

I mentioned this a while ago, and Rob gave a negative on that since those songs just weren't good at all in his opinion. I think its good for masu to have a track record of having hardly any bad songs if any at all.

Even if they think they are not so great, i wouldn't mind hearing them :(
-
I'd probably buy 10 copies of any medium that had redone versions of the more notable web releases. The problem with that is I think they're basically all rather notable...
-
It's true that the songs that didn't make it on the album weren't really any good at all. They seemed to have great potential when we were making them but when we reached completion it just became apparent that "dang, these tracks truly suck", and by that I mean "suck", not "oh, maybe not so good".
One song was kinda cool, so who knows, hehe... But two of them were fubar.
-
Well we know rob is thinking about it.
Say whaaaaat? D:
only insofar as he's always thinking two projects ahead, and overworld has been creatively finished, from the band's point of view, for some time now; so surely new ideas are already forming, fetus-like, in his fecund brainscape.
-
Eeee....
There is nowhere wrote, who is the songwritter (and "lyricswritter") in this and this song...or who is MAIN songwritter generally in MaSu? So maybe I'm wrong, I really don't know, but I'd like to know that.
Is there any list, where is that wrote? For songs from DXM, Redeemer, Overworld and so on... :)
-

Perhaps they could be new projects in the future, a spark may ignite them and you may find something to patch the holes and make it elite :P

Some fun and funky answers so far, but I'm curious: Who comes up with the videos? That is, does someone from Spinefarm come down and say "this shot and this theme will sell" or do you say to spinefarm "we think this would look great as a video"?
I'm aware the process is probably two way, so who gets final say?
-

The director gererally controls the way a film is made and what's shown in frame or not.
This time Johan Hannu presented us with a concept. We agreed to shoot it. Spinefarm agreed to fund it.
We (the band) had very little to do with the script, but ofc we read it before we agreed to do anything.
-
is it possible to have the radio edit of edge and pearl on myspace instead? i love the intro, but i reckon its too long for potential converts to sit through!
-
Thanks for the answer. Always wondered how those things came together.
Next question: where is the sample from Prelude to Empire? I've just listened to Overworld and it didn't leap out at me.
-
it's dark city, but slightly stripped down.
-
its the acoustic solo in the intro.
-
Wow I actually got an e-mail back for MaSu being in GH. I also asked about Wii DLC since I might get GH3 for Wii. It reads:
Hello, thank you for contacting Activision Customer support. What an AWSOME suggestion. I will pass this along to the appropriate parties for consideration.
In regards to DLC, we cannot comment on any unreleased updates, DLC or patches nor do we have this information. Keep checking our website and various game messageboards for information on any game updates.
In the meantime, keep rockin!
I think they need to learn how to spell awesome. :P
-

Sounds kinda like a default response. They prolly get so many suggestions for bands/songs, can't see them listening to every suggestion. ;/

Well obviously but then again I wasn't really hoping for anything more. At least we know it's a possibility. I think Machinae should try and contact Neversoft or Activision themselves if they really want to make it in the game. I mean come on, An Endless Sporadic made it into GH3 and they only had two of their three songs recorded at the time, with the third being Impulse recorded specifically for Guitar Hero.

My question is very simple. Why is the band called Machinae Supremacy? I can understand translation, but is there any deeper context?
And why MachinAe? Any connection with Japanese?
In "MaSu forum" I didn't find that....
and...

...why don't I have some answer? :-( So nobody knows? What about dezo, please ? ;) ;D

well, seeing as it's eloj's faq, and that he hasn't been online for like ages, that's not gonna happen for a good while, methinks :P

A question for the band.
Think you'll ever do a Concept Album?

One thing that I really wonder, and I know it's silly but... why were the stereo channels for Insidious swapped on the reprint of DXM?

I'll give my answers. Band, please correct me if I am wrong. :P
First of all, I think Robert is the songwriter, and he has always been the "main" songwriter, of almost every song.
I'd say because they believe that they call themselves Machinae Supremacy because they believe machines are superior to human beings, because they, robots that is, lacks the human flaws that is needed for controlling and ruling a perfect world. The old image of the band (when Kahl was still in the band), pictured the Band as machines. Again, I might very well be wrong. :)
It has, with almost guaranteed certainty, no connection to Japanese. It is more connected to Latin, where the word for machine is "machina". Then I don't know, add an "e" at the end, and it can still be pronounced in English. :P
-
I only answer questions I find interresting.
Bocom and other forum members can answer the standard questions, like "why MaSu" and stuff.
Ofc MaSu has a different context depending on how you use the words, but Bocom's answer is a nice one imo. I would prolly add something like "what can you do with your computer" or something, but the machine-emotionless answer suits just fine =)
And "connection to japanese" I'd say something like we know a girl named Chica (spelling?).. I don't think that we have any connection beyond the obviuos -Lyrics and Musical influences. So here is a bullshit answer more fitting.. so here goes:
My dad's got a mecha parked behind the house which I use to travel to *eh* Mospaeda... oh and I speak out of sync, because I'm born in the 70's and the dubbing was not really flawless back then.

hey, first id like to say that u guys are my favorite band, Machinae Supremacy! ;D
im totally addicted to the new songs "gimme More" "Radio Future" "Dark City" and "Edge And Pearl", true masterpieces^^! and all the other songs of yours rocks!^^
i have two questions:
1. what where ur inspirations when u made your newest albums?:)
2. are u guys gonna play in norway this year?^^
-
Welcome! It's nice to hear you liked the album.
Can't really answer for the band, but I do know a bit.
1. There are definite cyperpunkish undertones on the album. I suspect that some inspiration has been derived from the comic Rob is working on.
2. I'm personally crossing my fingers and hoping they'll be showing up in Trondheim this fall or something. It would be awesome.
-
Why does UMG keep producing crap when what they really need are bands like MaSu to save they're ass.
MaSu is signed with SpineFarm which is a subsidiary of UMG.
-
Me and my friend are excellent MaSu fans. We see beauty in the lyrics and music. A certain song in a past album and one in the most recent album stand out to us though.
Tempus Fugit is extremely epic. There's hardly any other way to describe it. Badass, maybe.
Reading the lyrics to Overworld release 'Dark City', we've been wondering if these songs are connected in any way lyrically. If it was an accident or a new strain of ideas.
I would like feedback from a band member if possible on this, or it will never rest in our heads. ;)
Thanks a lot.
-
Hey FireEatingNinja, good question, I've thought about too. They certainly have the same feel with a deserted city.
I hope you don't mind that I've merge your thread into the the Question/Answer thread. Also, please introduce yourself in the General >> Introduction forum. We like new people...
-
That is funny. I thought there maybe was a connection between Return to Snake Mountain and Dark City...
I can see the mountain over me, the Serpent Hollow
The silent fortress underneath
-
Can you name all the characteristics from the band?
I.E Dezo always comes too late for rehearsals or thomas needs minimal 1 beer before a show, whatever.. ;D
-
Dark City is a song about our hometown Luleå.
Snake Mountain is a place in Luleå.
We got a fortress underneath (see cryosleep vid).
I am never late for rehearsal and Tompi don't need beer, he just like beer and why not take a few to start the mandatory party after a gig a bit early? =P
-
Dezo, were you the one that signed my package? :D It was either you or Jonne...

Hi. My name is Daniel, and I work as a redactor (http://metalirium.com/?id=79&user=1183311264) in a Slovak metal e-zin www.metalirium.com. (http://metalirium.com) But that's not so important, point is that I am a big fan of Machinae Supremacy and I am here for asking whether it would be possible to make an interview with one of the band members (for our website). I am interested in spreading your music, because in our country you're not known as well as you can be. Ofcourse, there are a lot of fans, but it could be much more better with more information. I have written your biography in our language and now I had an idea about interview.
I will prepare only a few basic questions which I can mail you and if one of the members would have 5 - 10 minutes from the time, it will be really great :)

(http://metalirium.com) But that's not so important, point is that I am a big fan of Machinae Supremacy and I am here for asking whether it would be possible to make an interview with one of the band members (for our website). I am interested in spreading your music, because in our country you're not known as well as you can be. Ofcourse, there are a lot of fans, but it could be much more better with more information. I have written your biography in our language and now I had an idea about interview.
I will prepare only a few basic questions which I can mail you and if one of the members would have 5 - 10 minutes from the time, it will be really great :)
You got PM.

I am never late for rehearsal and Tompi don't need beer, he just like beer and why not take a few to start the mandatory party after a gig a bit early? =P
Can you name all the characteristics from the band?
FOR EXAMPLE : Dezo always comes too late for rehearsals or thomas needs minimal 1 beer before a show, whatever.. ;D
Hopefully somewhat clearer :D

Well, we are all quite complex individuals.
I really don't want to give you characteristics here on the forum.
I think that's something you should experience for yourself when you meet us.
You should already have realized who I am, and if you have been with the forum from the start you should already know a lot of the others as well... except Jonne ofc =P

Dark City is a song about our hometown Luleå.
Snake Mountain is a place in Luleå.
We got a fortress underneath (see cryosleep vid).
Intriguing. Vid link or it never happened. ;)

If it wouldn't hurt so much i'd smack my head against the wall. Never mind. :]

Dezo, were you the one that signed my package? :D It was either you or Jonne...
It was Jonne. =)
Just as good. I'm not throwing away the package. ;D

What is the story behind the Cryosleep vid (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jxrAQC-wCOA)? Art project, just a music video, or something else entirely? Can we consider it a sort-of-official music video? I've asked before, I think, but I can't remember the answer, so I ask again.
-
Split the Cryosleep video discussion posts and moved it to Pics & Vids (http://forum.machinaesupremacy.com/index.php/topic,5946.0.html).
-
1. sorry if its been answered before. im a bit occupied at the moment and cant read all the pages.
2. dont really know if this is the place to ask, but ill give it a shot anyway.
is it possible to get the webography in better quality? im guessing the ogg is ripped in ogg5 quality, but can you get them in ogg10? or maybe even better, flac or wav?

Valid question tho. =)

Have you, or will you, ever consider giving us flac versions?
-
Isn't Stand a perfect Anonymous theme? (lol. ;))
15.03.08 - Expect us (..to be playing Stand at the strike)
15.04.08, in your borked way of putting down dates... (April, you said March).
-

read lil bit up and you can see an answer and its NO
-

the answer was to a question asking if there was already a place to get flac versions, whereas the new question asks if they would consider sometime in the future releasing flac versions....still unlikely but none the less, different questions.
-
There's this thing called "bandwidth".
That was my point in its entirety.
-
well, im guessing they do have the songs in better quality (right?), so i could even pay to get them on cds. if possible =).
then again, im guessing many of us would want that, which would take time. something that could be better used on.. something else ;D :P
but yeah, if possible to get on cd, im interested ;D
-
When you have enough material will there be "best of" collection?
If yes, were it possible to have it as 2-disc edition, 1st disc being remakes of webography?
-
boo for best-of-albums ::)
though i encourage the idea of a webography-rerecord-cd :D
-
well, im guessing they do have the songs in better quality (right?), so i could even pay to get them on cds. if possible =).
I don't think they do. They might though. ;)
-
well, while working with songs they dont really use mp3s/ogg do they?
and i thought of a way to distribute them, that shouldnt take that much bandwidth... torrents ;)
-
well, while working with songs they dont really use mp3s/ogg do they?
meh.
all your lossless songs are belong to us!
-
I has questions!
a lot of artists end up with more songs than they plan to feature on an album.
some artists release these on a b-sides and extras record.
are there some tracks not featured on albums that you guys have laying around?
are they awesome but weren't included in an album because of theme incompatibility? (Like Ghost was originally before the retail version featured it).
if so: are there plans on releasing them in any format?
-

This has been discussed before, though I cannot remember in what thread. General response to the idea was favorable, but I do not recall any kind of committed response from the band...
Still, on that note, I'd be very much in favor of being able to build your own "Mix" CD out of lossless recordings of select web-released songs.
-
i think the end result on that discussion was that although people would like it, they'd prefer the band to focus on creating new material rather than promoting ye olde.
-
im not saying they should do a remix or something like that though. i would just like the files in lossless quality, and if that means getting them on a burned cd then id be happy with that. a cd doesnt cost that much, and neither would postage. say 50sek, and they got a deal. (im not sure with how many cds it would require though).
no focus would be taken from new material.

no focus would be taken from new material.
But it would take focus. First of all, they would need to remaster the tracks. Then, they'd need to send all the copies, if more than one person would want it.
And I still don't think that they would do all that if only one person would do it. They have claimed several times that they are very busy people.
In my humble opinion, they need to focus on new material, instead of trying to promote their old stuff.
Don't get me wrong, I'd want it as much as the next fan, but I'd rather get new material than a rehashed/remastered old track,

as awesome as it would be to hear some old tracks with the new and improved vocals a la Robert and the overall quality improvement of the band, I agree that new material should be focus here.
-
i dont really know lots about this kinda stuff, but why is remastering needed?
-
DXM : perhaps because the band tought it had to be remixed/remastered.
Redeemer : I think I remember a post where it was said that Spinefarm wanted it to be remastered.
-
I think the question alluded more to "can't they release lossless FLAC versions of songs without remastering?"
and not so much as to why they have remastered in the past :)
-
My bad. :P
-
i dont really know lots about this kinda stuff, but why is remastering needed?
Because I don't think that they have the original loss-less files left.
-
ah, ok. well, if thats the problem then i agree, they shouldnt waste any time with that. but if they do have the lossless files left, i think they should at least think about it. if they need someone to help distribute the files (at the price of cds+postage) then i think there are plenty of fans that would be willing to help, myself included.
-
Ok, so I have a question and an request for the band.
I have been listening to "Masugn" a lot recently, and are really fond of the music, aswell as the few lines of lyrics I can hear.
I have been trying to Google for them, but I can't find anything, not even the slightest hint that they ever existed.
What I am looking for, is lyrics. (<-- Hint for request)
I have been searching the forums, and all I could find, was an old thread, which revealed lyrics for one song and an interesting quote from Rob, saying something with; "It's best if you don't know-".
Now, this only made me more interested, and therefore, I am kindly asking the band, or someone else, to post a link, or PM me with lyrics. (<-- Request)
And the question is, what the hell is "Masugn" anyway? (<-- Question)
-
what the hell is "Masugn" anyway? (<-- Question)
A masugn is a Blast furnace in swedish

Yes. But also a band rob and kahl were in. Not sure about the specific details as i seem to have lost Eloj's FAQ.
Standing by for assistance.
-
Will we ever see (or rather, hear) any masugn songs re
madeanimated on future masu albums or as downloads like the march of the undead 2? That would be ever so delicious.
-
Are there any more Jets'n'Guns-tune-based songs in the works?
-
Since Hubnester is dead, who owns all of the material that was created?
Is it public domain?
If not, who owns it all?
If the band owns it or can use it :-
Will you be using unreleased Hubnester (War Angels, Snowblind) music in future MaSu songs?
-
Since Hubnester is dead, who owns all of the material that was created?

i don't really see why it would be public domain. hubnester was their company.

I guess, but the company is dead, some companies release all their shit if they just up and give up. Wait for the band to answer?
EDIT: It wasn't just their company either though, it was more than just the band in Hubnester - it was a group effort between a few friends and likeminded people.
-
yeah. they weren't working for some mega corp, so i would assume the music is the property of those who created it.
chances are i'm completely wrong, mind.
-

I'm sure they werent working for some megacorp, but I'm also sure that there would be disputes between the members of Hubnester over who actually owns all of the material.
-
yarr, but what i said was that regardless of in-house disputes, they (read: the members of hubnester) own the material. not sure if that answers your question but wtf. [:
-
Eh, not that I don't find the discussion interesting, but, I haven't really gotten any answers...
I knew that it was a band with rob and kahl, but nothing more...
-
calm down kiddo. im sure that if rob sees the question he'll get some lyrics for you [:

And the question is, what the hell is "Masugn" anyway? (<-- Question)
Robert has responded to the general request for Masugn lyrics many many times with a sound "NO.". The only Masugn track that ever had any lyrics released was Hostiles. IIRC, the reasoning on refusing to release any others was general embarrasment over the songs and lyrics as well, among other reasons. It was a side project, as much a "screw around and have fun" as FLAK.

If the band owns it or can use it :-

This also has been answered, though it was by Dezo. Any musics produced by Hubnester Industries are still and always were property of Hubnester Industries, and as of this question being answered there were no plans to release them.
I'm also not 100% sure H.I. is actually "dead".
-
For once, I get to know things!
[long ass quote]
I'm also not 100% sure H.I. is actually "dead".
Hubnester is dead.. or "on ice". The future will tell.
There will prolly not be any new hubnester projects in 2008. We will make machinae songs instead.
Bad? I think not!
Also, there will prolly not be any more flak songs released... but I have been wrong before.
-
Is Masugn absolutely, definitely, completely, totally, eternally, dead? It would seem so, but deep inside I hope not... It's just so awesome and unlike anything I have ever heard.
-
Masugn is dead.

YESSSSSSSS, INTERBAND REFERENCING.
will future gigs see more overworld songs played? or will we still get a nice mix of the older stuff as well?

At the gig in luleå they only played 4 old songs (ttlg, oki kuma, reaper, hero) and almost every overworld song. So i guess they'll play mostly overworld from now on, but i hope they will have some gigs where they only play old songs, cause frankly, i'm getting a little tired of the new songs x]

Maybe now is a good time to remember that the last gig in luleå was the Overworld release-gig. Maybe.

You definitely got a point there
But yet, they played mostly Overworld songs at the gig in Piteå too..
-
Again, the same argument can be used. Machinae just released a new album, they're obviously going to play mostly music from that album for the next couple of months.

And, I'd like to hear some older songs live aswell.
I mean, just because some of us still werent old enough to go to the older shows.

I think a few users have guesses as to the lyrics with some degree of accuracy. Whether you could pry those from them or not is not my concern, unless you succeed, in which case I want them as well = P.
There were also some live recordings and (low quality) videos circulating at one time, but I forget the site I got them from (hosted by a forum member, I don't even know if it still exists), so I can't help you there.
-
So, we all know that MaSu really grew popular through site releases before the albums. Right? Right.
Well, considering the whole Spinefarm thing, are there gonna be any more site-only releases? Just wondering, out of curiousity. o.o
-
I certainly hope so.
-
I really hope so, some cool medley(Metal Gear Solid prewtty please with suger on top?)
unless they get to busy with flying all over the world bringing the power that is SID metal :D And trust me it will happen!
-
Well, I doubt the contract the band has states that they're not allowed to release songs on the net, but I suspect they'll mostly work on new songs to be included on albums. However, it is not uncommon that some songs are left out of an album simply because they do not fit the theme of that album, so we might get to see some of those again.
Or maybe another song spurred on by world events, such as Legion of Stoopid was.
DISCLAIMER: Despite my status as your Moderator-Overlord, I am not privy to any special information on this subject. The above is the most I would expect the band to do (e.g. I don't think they'll make a random song just to post it on the net).
-
I don't think they'll make a random song just to post it on the net.
Well maybe not to JUST post on the net...maybe they just got inspired by something and made something from the spur of the moment and then it be released on the site? Randomness can be a great tool to all creative arts.

indeed, and what a great way to keep new people interested until an album comes out.
I remember how exciting my days were when a new Machinae song would randomly pop up on the site.
/me thinks of soundtrack to the rebellion, ghost, legion of stupid and trinity fondly

EDIT: Gordon now uses a Gibson Les Paul. Awesome!

Rob sold his guitar on eBay a little while ago, didn't?

Nobody bought it, so he didn't really sell it. He still uses it at live shows.

Will there ever be a co-op with some other band in the future?
The only co-op I've seen is "King's of the scene", and I doubt that it counts.
-
We're open to such things, we've even talked many times about doing it with Inja, but in a way that's redundant because we can already get Erica to sing for us whenever we want. :)
However, who knows. It's possible, depends on who, when and where.
-
I cant find wallpapers or pics of the band in the *new* composition, am i stupid or arent there any?
is it possible to get signature stuff, autographs or something without visiting a gig? (unfortunately not possible to watch one yet :) )
how do you think of bands who *try* to cover you?
you guys need your own guitar signature merch..
gieeev masu picks, guitar belts and little stickers i can put on my amp :D
*edit* what does this karma mean on the left?
-
I cant find wallpapers or pics of the band in the *new* composition, am i stupid or arent there any?
-There aren't any yet.
is it possible to get signature stuff, autographs or something without visiting a gig? (unfortunately not possible to watch one yet :) )
-Nope. You'd haf to meet us in person to get signed stuff.
how do you think of bands who *try* to cover you?
-To have others play our music totally rawks =) Listen to the lyrics of radio future and then try to imagine our take of ppl making fanvids and stuff (we <3 it)
you guys need your own guitar signature merch..
-Agreed.
gieeev masu picks, guitar belts and little stickers i can put on my amp :D
-we'll try to make some products that you actually can afford... that's always the biggest problem with making small scale orders.
*edit* what does this karma mean on the left?
-It shows how many times you google'd "MaSu"
-
which strings do you guys use?
i mean brand, thickness and why especially these and no others
do you pump up your guitars with custom pickups or do you use the *clean* instrument you bought?
are there any solos from jonne i can get somewhere?
"maybe stupid question" do you need sidstation with quadrasid to make these sounds or the other way?
plz tell me if i'm too curiously :)
-
are there any solos from jonne i can get somewhere?
Doesn't like, pretty much every MaSu song have a Jonne solo in it?

-
bah, I an't be arsed to answer all them Jonne related questions =)
anyways, I'll let our l33t guitarists answer the questions because I really can't keep track of string thickness and other stuff. We all use knucklehead strings atm, that's all I can say.
...I wonder if we should ever tell Jonne that we have a forum. ;D
-
bah, I an't be arsed to answer all them Jonne related questions =)
sorry, its just because i play e-guitar by myself but i also love your bass playing :D
wait, i got one especially for you :)

hehe, I sorta got my nickname from a ghei ass nick I use in various momorpughur's.
The complete answer to this question lies within the forums.
Nowdays I often use dezo^[insert class here] just so that my groups can keep track on which toon I'm playing.

just one more i forgot.
i asked about the guitar models but i forgot that bass is also one :-[

there is no jonne

the jonne is a lie.

OK, the test is over now. You win! Go back to the recovery annex for jonne!
-
Just a completely random question I thought of, but do you guys live together or do you all live separately or some kind of quirky combination?
-
when will it give wallpapers, photos and such stuff from you guys again?
(vote for MaSu desk theme with dezo headbang start button ;D)
-
Living together.. nope. We are all sorta old enough to live by ourselves =)
Wallpapers and stuff are coming later. We need to get some material, photos and such, first.

Right.
Every five minutes. And now we're off topic!
-
i didn't mean it literally.
every time dezo responds to a question it doesn't mean you have to reply to him with more unnecessary questions. the fact his answers are fairly short should give you a small hint that he'd rather you thought out what you wanted to ask first.
im not having a go, nor going off topic. this is a Q&A thread, not a fanboy pester one. [:

play nice in this thread or I'll delete it and summon foulmouthed imps to answer future questions. =P

will you make more vids like behind the scene?

hm, good question.
I'd say prolly. I already release photos and stuff on various places tho.

most of the old links or pics have been removed, doesnt work or doesnt exist anylonger
*edit* sry what means prolly? :)
-
prolly: probably. [:
-
Has any person of the band considered doing something similar to Ghost I-IV? If not, like the idea at all? I think Masu would be perfect for this kind of thing.

(1) On hubnester inc, ye guys had a bunch of JnG outtakes and hammered them into a song. Any chance of doing stuff like that with old DXM, Redeemer, or Overworld stuff?
(2) Have ye ever had guest musicians play, we'll say. Like Ozzy Osbourne taking over Rob's vocals for a song. If not, who would ye like to have a crack at it?
(3) Do you still keep in touch with the ex members?
(4) Any chance you'll make it to Ireland any time soon? There will be free pints... :)
(5) Weird one, and its kinda old... Snake Mountain on DXM. Rob wrote once that he was inspired by what happened to someone. who was it?
(6) Is Spinefarm "happy" with Overworld? So they "like" MaSu?
-
Q: is the next masu album goinng to have a theme like overworld???

Definitly! It'll rawk something fierce and it'll be a bit different as usual. (ie not like the last album.)

'Cause I don't know anything about how all that stuff works - if the radio stations can play any song they like, if it has to be a single and so on.. :P
bandit hardly ever play songs which haven't been released as singles..? =/
-
That's because the songs released as singles often are the most popular ones. If you get your wish through, they can play any song they have.
-
Is there already the slightest evidence of a new album? :D Just curious.
-
do you really mean "evidence" or just "trace?"
if the former, yes yes a thousand times yes! for example, see dezo's post. or see masu's 3-record deal... only two down!
if the latter.... not so far as i know.
-
would you make music for games or something else again?
-
masu's 3-record deal... only two down!
im quite curious about this. whats going to happen after the next album is released? are spinefarm actually going to market it? will they renew the contract or just leave the band hanging dry again?
it pisses me off. they deserve some mainsteam attention. overworld was amaze.

I thought it was a 4 record deal...
-
er, yeah, i think you're right.
-
but after that? what happpppeeennnnssss!
-
I don't think it's such a bad deal... Certainly nobody's promising me that they'll support my hopes and dreams for 5 years at the low end. When the contract expires, it's probably just time for a conversation within the band, the label, and between the two to see if they want to keep it up. If for some reason one or the other party doesn't want to, well then they'll deal with it when they get there, and I can't say i'm too worried about how machsup will fare without a record label.

If you want to see me headbanging, just come to a gig!
Damn! I just want it! But what gigs?
New album out! But no "Overworld tour" for support, or am I wrong? It might be, but I don't see anything everywhere! Practically no promo-activities (ok, in Luleå and the like - but is this enough??, maybe you guys are only waiting and preparing for any "summer huge-tour surprise", in the given case I'm really looking forward to it)
"2008 .02. 29
PITEÃ…, SWE
Folkets hus
"Nordic Rage" Fest,"
Guys, what's the problem? New label - new possibilities, MORE possibilities... (or not?) :'(
I'm really sorry, if any similar accusation was there, but I'm desperate, I can't drive it out of my mind... ???

Your question is quite valid.

But what's wrong? I expected that new label (Spinefarm wow! Nightwish, Children of Bodom, Sonata Arctica and other notorious bands...) helps with these things and you strike up any tour for "new-album-support" - support for album which I can buy in local store. Nothing happened :-(
It could be local problem - with no-merchandise in Czech republic or Slovakia but...how nice would it be if my beloved band Machinae Supremacy run tour with any other Scandinavian metal band across whole Europe ? ;)
I just want to see you, guys! I want to headbanging when hard bass-riffs in Hate struck! I want to sing with Gaz when Skin graduates, I want to buy ofc signed merch and I just want kiss you because of your absolutely flawless music ! >:D ;)

I'd say that it's a local problem. Local venues probably don't want to host some "mainstream-unknown" band. Sorry guys, but it's the truth.
I say: Give it more time. There will (hopefully) be a time where we all have headbanged with them at least once. :)

So, the band has made a deal with EBS.
Does this mean that dezo will now start using only ebs amps, cabinets and effects?

EBS is tthe real shit O0

Does that mean you're stopping with those overrated pieces of line
shit6?

Aye. EBS is the only thing I need.
The EBS Fafner has the best comressor in the world imo... It suits my way of playing/grinding perfectly and the distortion is very flexible which in the end means that I don't haf to use effects. I'm thinking about adopting some other effects tho, and ofc they will be of EBS branding.
Also, EBS is a great company and my contact there is like "Born to rawk".
It's very easy to be proud of such a sweet endorsement deal. EBS has win and awesome! =)

Does that mean you're stopping with those overrated pieces of lineshit6?
EBS is bass only.
Line(win)6 is mostly guitar. O0

I have but one simple question. or two. three?
who does your cover art, and how much are they paid?(i was thinking specifically of the second dxm release, but now i'm thinking rob did that too.
and second (or third) would you ever want some famous artist to do your cover art, who would it be?

EDIT: misread fix'd

Well he didn't say "fabulous" but "famous", so the question remains.
-

yeaaaah, but I don't think it's a question to be answered anyway.
even if it's just hypothetical.
Rob doing the cover art for the band makes it a lot more personal.
The Band knows what they want, some artist their describing what they want just won't get it quite as good.

So... as far as writing lyrics goes, is it just Rob, or is it a group effort?

Speaking of Overworld, here's a PERFECT CHANCE for me to say a funnt easter egg I found the first minute that I drooled on the cd.
The girl's stamp on her cheek says: "RFID 080213".
Now, the release date for the cd were on the 13th of Februari, 2008.

If you're talking about this thread: Don't. Just ban everyone who asks stupid questions.
Shouldn't this thread have more serious questions, and less random pointless stuff?
-
Well I have a serious question!
Are you guys going to try to get a song in Guitar Hero IV? I've already written Neversoft and suggested MaSu for GHIII dlc. I think you should try to contact them if you haven't. Not only would it help with popularity but it would just be awesome to play a song like Return to Snake Mountain or something in GH. :)
-
the thing is, does GH release "unpopular" songs as content?
-
they should at least be eligible for a "bonus song" slot..
-

They did relase Impluse by An Endless Sporadic, and some other not very well known music among the bonus tracks.

Altough that has been brought up several times if I'm not mistaken...
Have you started planning for the next album? :)
-
Bugger the next album.
My thirst has been quenched for the next 2 years after Overworld.
What I want to know is will there ever be another lesser spotted Instrumental on any future album?
Cos in my opinion, Machinae Prime was by far the best damn SID instrumental that had real ooomph and soul to it as compared to any of the others.
I mean, will we ever see the likes of them again?

I have to agree.
as much as I love and still love Overworld, the lack of a classic Machinae Supremacy power instrumental was a bit of a disappointment.
Redeemer didn't technically have one either, but Empire had simple and sparing enough lyrics to count for me.

Bugger the next album.
My thirst has been quenched for the next 2 years after Overworld.
What I want to know is will there ever be another lesser spotted Instrumental on any future album?
Cos in my opinion, Machinae Prime was by far the best damn SID instrumental that had real ooomph and soul to it as compared to any of the others.
I mean, will we ever see the likes of them again?

Agreed. Are you guys gonna do another instrumental? (esp. one to rival Machinae Prime?)
..also. As a band, what different languages do you guys speak? I know English and Swedish, but.. XD

Well I have a serious question!
Are you guys going to try to get a song in Guitar Hero IV? I've already written Neversoft and suggested MaSu for GHIII dlc. I think you should try to contact them if you haven't. Not only would it help with popularity but it would just be awesome to play a song like Return to Snake Mountain or something in GH. :)
That would be truly awesome. ;D
Altough that has been brought up several times if I'm not mistaken...
You have to be retardedly popular to get a song in GH.. Like, Linkin Park popular. (It made me so mad they got a song in a guitar-based videogame. >>; )
Although I'd love to see it any day of the week.
Btw, this question might've been asked before, but I didn't have the time to check.
Are you guys ever planning on doing any sort of US tours?

If they put a crappy song like Red Lottery by an unknown band in the game I'm sure they'd put MaSu in.

This is more of a musical question, but here goes.
How did you get that weird compressed sound at the end of Steve's Quest? (I've heard it elsewhere in masu songs, but this was the song that came to mind.)
Also, how do you produce the static in your songs? Is it a long sample, or is it produced by the band or an amp or something?
-
How did you come up with the idea to put a metroid sample in the end of "Stand"?
Who is Steve? Seriously! Is it just a random name, or does it/he have a meaning?

1, 'cos Metroid is awesome.
2, random average name to reflect random average people - i.e. random average person A can become a hero if s/he really fights for it. [Question's been asked at least twice before]

Aha. Thanks for those answers. :)

Does the Trinity symbol that Machinae Supremacy uses so much have a hidden meaning deep within? O_O

The Trinity is a Christian doctrine, stating that God is one being who exists, simultaneously and eternally, as a mutual indwelling of three persons:[1] the Father, the Son (incarnate as Jesus Christ), and the Holy Spirit. Since the beginning of the third century[2] the doctrine of the Trinity has been stated as "that the one God exists in three Persons and one substance, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit".[3] Trinitarianism, belief in the Trinity, is a mark of Oriental and Eastern Orthodoxy, Roman Catholicism and all the mainstream traditions arising from the Protestant Reformation, such as Anglicanism, Lutheranism and Presbyterianism; and the Trinity has been described as "the central dogma of Christian theology".[3]
My money's on that they thought of this. Or at least that it's something religious.
Parody maybe?

Steve is a Teddy Bear.
Haha!

The Machinae Supremacy religion... the only elite religion in the world

Torp and I have reached a decision to lock this thread. The reason is the extraordinary amount of useless comments not directly related to the topic on hand (QUESTIONS, damnit - not spam), as well as a growing quantity of pointless questions, coupled with a steady decline of actual answers to those pointless questions (band members not answering your question may be a pretty good indicator that they thought so too).
Therefore, I pronounce my sentence of lockage and de-stickification!
