this being HN, from the title i genuinely had no idea whether this link would be about music, the apple graphics acceleration framework, or ore deposits.

Didn't expect to see something I made on HN while my wife is trying to find something to watch on TV. So about the site in case anyone is interested. I made it with a friend who was studying multimedia. He helped with the data and I did the coding. Took about a week or two. The site was originally Flash (remember that). But I ported it to HTML5 a few years ago. It still has those Flash vibes I think. Posted the code…

I love it! Was the inability to turn down the volume on the mini player intentional? This had me laughing. I'm at work, but that's metal AF.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Check out the band smash stereo, and check out the doom (2016) and doom the dark ages sound tracks.

Didn't know I enjoyed this kind of metal, but itls great. You got some more, friend?

There's another band called The Algorithm which is somewhat similar. Also try this playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7JbQnrznEs458ehyRr7d0L?si=...

I've got a particular itch that's difficult to scratch, and I'm not seeing anything on this site that reflects the genre. I've heard it as 'metalstep' but I'm sure there are other names for it. Very aggressive cross between metal and EDM. More of a metal sensibility than hardcore EDM; more of an EDM / trance sensibility than, say, Fear Factory. The drum tracks have more of a death metal vibe to them. It's probably ea…

You might like Sullivan King. Matches the description of "aggressive cross between metal and EDM" imo.

Mate, this is really cool. Definitely a throw back to a different time.

Incredible work and yes, it really captures a Flash vibe.

My only note would be that I'm surprised that Order from Chaos isn't featured anywhere; I feel like they are kind of a Rosetta stone for so much of what happened in the 90s/00s with black and death metal converging on each other.

Thanks! ‘Die By My Hand’ is close to what I have in mind.

I kind of always considered that Industrial Metal, but looking at the examples on the site, they don't really match with what's in my head. For concrete examples of what I'm thinking, something like Crossbreed[1], or more recently Electric Callboy[2] [1] - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CS2zMciGHBE [2] - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D1NdGBldg3w

A friend at work got me into EC recently. I’m into it, they’ve got good sensibilities. Celldweller, is another group I have in mind. Less purely mechanical than Ministry or Fear Factory.

“System Overload” is a banger. If that had some Nile-style double bass drum programming, that’s where my head is heading.
