Same here. Thanks for the hint !Pista wrote:Missed that one.radiojamaica wrote:their set at the Wave Gotik Festival in Leipzig was upped on Dime too! Well worth the download, of course.
Rectified now
Did a remix job on one of the 'Samsara' songs tonight, in my opinion, the most overlooked gem on there. Sounds much more powerful and dynamic now.
Time for a giveaway. Post your guess of which song I mean below, only one guess per individual poster is allowed. The first one to get it right I'll send a digital copy in WAV format (CD quality) to for free. For everyone else, it'll be available at http://ahrayeph.bandcamp.com/ soon for the usual 1 Euro price sometime this weekend.

AHR�YEPH BACK TO BAND STATUS!
*** Literally at the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of October, the unlikely has happened : Ahráyeph is back to band status. A message from Raf follows...
"When I put out the message on October 8th, I never thought I would be eating those words - or at least half of them - a few days later. Because it was financially unfeasible to keep Ahráyeph going in a band format, after essential hardware had been repossessed (which, incidentally, has happened as I type this), and I am - still - lacking the funds to replace it, Ahráyeph as a live band was essentially over and done. The sadness that came with that realisation was beyond words, even though it did shine through in my message. I am NOT apologising for this, this is who I am. I would also like to take the opportunity to thank everyone who sent a message of sympathy and support the past few days. I appreciate it enormously, more than you may know.
Cue to literally the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of this month, when a veritable miracle happened, in the sense that a source who wants to remain anonymous has generously replaced the missing hardware, free of charge, no strings attached. It needs a few upgrades to be able to function the way it needs to for Ahráyeph live gigs, but with this hardware, we can be a live band again, even if we remain on the lookout for a new guitar player, and hopefully a bass player as well.
There are two people I need to thank for this miracle : Ness and her boyfriend Thomas. If not for her perseverance to keep the band going and his connections, this wouldn't have been possible. They literally saved the band. As said, I was always going to keep making music, and Ness would also have been part of that, but now it is possible to build up a band again. More than anything, I am immensely relieved. I can't say I'm filled with joy, because the last couple of months have taken so much out of me that happiness barely registers at this time. And besides, Goths aren't supposed to be happy anyway. But the fact remains that this is a miracle that happened and Ahráyeph is a band-in-the-making again. You will be able to see us live in 2013 after all.
As for a new album, that I remain steadfast about : there won't be one, because there's no money to make one. I would love to put together a new album, but unless I can secure the necessary funds, you will only see Ahráyeph songs being released on Bandcamp. It's still better than no music at all. And who knows, another miracle might happen and there might be an album after all eventually. Hope springs eternal...

Nice ... ... always stay alive, Raf ... ...Ahráyeph wrote: But there is new music. There will always be new music. Just not in a tangible, CD shaped form. And it can be found here, some covers included. One already pleased Steve. All to be had for 1 Euro each. How 'bout that now? More to come soon. Check it out...
