Sekrett Scilensce’s “The Wasteland” (Hip-Hop)

Sekrett Scilensce Associates — Sun, 25 Jul 2010 04:28:31 +0000

There are quite a bit of people that see Rap and Hip-Hop in the vacuole that it exist in currently, they don't recall it for the grassroots movement it started as, nor the soulful, melodic awesomeness that it became just a few years after 1989. We don't take our cues from the new-school so much, but we take the best of the old and other styles and mix it up into something distinctive, be it the music portion or the lyrical portion, an audio experience is what we're vested in.

Maybe it is too much for some to ingest at the moment, and that is fine, but we think you should check it out because mainly, you might not hear something like these recordings elsewhere. That's a biased reasoning yes, but we can guarantee that with this particular song (and possibly it's side A). But don't just take our word for it, load it up and holler back at us, we're only interested in sharing high-quality innovation at the end of the day, and if you enjoy it, that's even better.

New DH-OST [Rising] Soundtrack Recordings

Sekrett Scilensce Associates — Sun, 25 Jul 2010 03:50:04 +0000

Sekrett Scilensce has completed two new soundtracks for the Devil’z Hide series installments “The Disdain” and “Rising” – Arriving off the heels of additional production being performed with Mary Margaret Park (author of Devil’z Hide), Sekrett Scilensce hopes to step-forward in introducing new elements to the industrial cadences heard in John Riley’s story.

“The earlier recordings were a collage of melodic mellow pieces that were interspersed with electronically charged industrial movements, comparable to Japan horror sequences or German noir with aesthetic driven scenes. Now I felt it was time to approach more of the orchestral blend so that the night and day comparison could become more apparent.”

A sample has been made available, showcasing a more symphonic styling to the moods experienced in the Devil’z Hide universe.

Sekrett Scilensce has made it clear that all the elements from the first round of recordings are still present in the tracks currently being produced.

“Wicked” Rocked, Anne Brummel Was Awesome…

Sekrett Scilensce Associates — Sat, 24 Jul 2010 23:29:40 +0000

We wanted to extend our thanks and appreciation to the cast of "Wicked" which played at the Fox Theatre (St. Louis) on July 6th, 2010 — The showing was magnificent and very tight — We must also say that Anne Brummel rocked the vox hard! Everyone was great together and she really brought the witch to life in a way we'd never have imagined. The effects, sets, everything was top notch and to that end we say, "If the play is happening in your town, get off of your arse and go see it"…

Print-Prototypes (i)

Sekrett Scilensce Associates — Fri, 09 Jul 2010 04:49:17 +0000

Just recently having completed some OST recordings for the expanded [Devil’z Hide] (DH) universe, we’ve been passed along a prototype-printing of the serial entries for this production. They’re outstanding, but not much more can be said other than what the photo depicts (see below) for now. In another month, the North-American release-schedule is supposed to be completed for the first shorts, and then at some point, the early test-marketed works are to be thrown-in with the full batch of produced literature and audio releases.

That’s over eighty (80) music cues and songs total (20 newer)…

Sekrett Scilensce: “Nothing Against Anybody, But Don’t Listen To Pundits…”

Sekrett Scilensce Associates — Fri, 09 Jul 2010 00:27:27 +0000

It is with great pleasure that we say, "Emotions are important for the creative soul". Yes, you are to be yourself, yes, you are to be professional and all that jargon but, you're not really supposed to be suppressive of imagination. That's what's happening when the pundits are professing everything from how to be physically viable to socially viable (i.e. digitally viable) and all that nonsense. You are already all of these things if you have proof of concept that what you produce (pick a good, any good) is of value and then (hopefully) of quality (to somebody, pick a niche, any niche).

Notice, these terms make it all seem sillier. Why? Well, because it is, and that's the fun part about being involved in entertainment (usually). All these butt-knocks, walking around, feeling entitled to fame and fortunes while you walk around, trying to seem less interested in fame and fortunes (holy f*ck). But then, there is all these good things surrounding that adventure, and those things add up to "THE EXPERIENCE" (by Milton Bradley), yes, The Experience, the game where you get to fail and fail and fail until you achieve one or three things on that list you made up in your mind when you were five years old about how you'd be bigger than Michael Jackson, bigger than Buddy Rich, bigger than Mussolini.

Dream bigger and be prouder, for everyday you wake up and get to do it all over again.

In A Land Upside Down

Sekrett Scilensce Associates — Tue, 08 Jun 2010 03:45:44 +0000

Much of today’s entertainment landscape consists of individuals and groups declaring expertise upon those that are new to the gamut. You’ll have arguments and debates over lore of yore, authentic versus unauthentic, and of course, flame wars over antics and gimmicks which do more harm than good from the ‘lover’s of music’ perspective.

Entertainers need not pick a side or engage any sentiments; the journey is more valuable than the end result a lot of times.

Almost every overnight success story takes ten to twenty years, and even then, it is only the first step in the eyes of the public. This usually means the public’s (as a whole) demand for what you deliver. That’s why it is important to be not only great at what you do, but as well, to be greater with each step taken; from all the various stages in your journey.

Some start bad then become good, some start great then become bad, and some start good and go bad and then become great.

A triangle perhaps…?

Where are you right now? Does anything written here matter? What’s more inspiring? Words or sung phrases that capture a depiction unlike anything ported to text?

Maybe I’m tired of the misaligned jargon that keeps being encountered with every leap I’m currently in the process of taking (but that’s just me).

Maybe you should stop? And leave more room for me?

Are we even really the same?

All Around Update: Kuneo Koei, Sekrett Scilensce, Mary Margaret Park

Sekrett Scilensce Associates — Fri, 28 May 2010 03:32:32 +0000

We’ve been very busy, and through all of this, we’re excited to say that we have many new writings, songs, and combined-developments that will go live shortly. With [Devil’z Hide] (DH), “Shadow Cure”, and [The Road Avenger] all being in different stages of development, alongside many new music-titles being finalized, we haven’t been able to keep anyone as updated as we’d like.

To everyone who has taken time to write-in regarding “The Road Avenger”, thank-you for all of your support and excitement (firstly). The project has been moving forward and will approach another public-demo (reading) release very soon. It is hard to balance the marketing of such a project into the methods of instantly-gratifying tidbits without destroying the heart and foundation of what is trying to be accomplished. For your patience, we can only say that all waiting is well worth it.

Some of you had heard that “Devil’z Hide” would have three new installments coming and this is all true. One of the setbacks that is now resolved is where the new titles were going to be distributed. We’d wanted to make it available to as many digital-networks as possible, but after a round of questions to readers and licensors, we came to the conclusion that many wanted to be able to access the titles directly from us. We are now set-up to do this more diligently. It will still take time to make things smoother (from an access point of view).

On the music side of things, we’d released a set of singles from “The Rapman’s Attire” album which were “IN5” and “Control”, each featuring a matched [Side-B] release. The official URL for “IN5” is http://www.myrap5.info – The official URL for “Control” is http://www.myrap7.info – You can as well view videos for these titles at http://ww.youtube.com/indigocentury — Please, we encourage you to view, rate, and discuss these music-productions as we’re honored and proud to serve them.

Lastly, we’ve been making many changes to our operational-procedures and have as well done away with a lot of unnecessary items that would only stand as obstacles in getting more high-quality content delivered to you. Some of what we’ve written here may sound bland or boorish but please understand that we did write it and we are extremely busy and unable to comply with every request for free-goodies and snips at this time. We will be getting more samples and the like out when both the new public-demo-readings arrive and more music-releases launch. We are hopeful that you can be satisfied with the new music-releases and the writings that will be updated in the next few days.

As a special-note to those who’ve written in asking for us to join communication networks such as Facebook, Twitter etc. We’re considering the possibilities but are not going to devote our development time or marketing resources, especially in relation to immediate needs, based on assertions that these tools are required. We appreciate that some have written in to tell us of how the bells and whistles of 21st century media may make us more visible or likable etc. but our truth is that we’re immersed in the idea of serving you bad-ass entertainment vs. communicating every event of our progress. While that may feel unfair to some, we would ask you to remember that none of us can be all things to all people (unless you’re Bill Gates and everyone uses your products to some degree).

To our fellow creators and producers; many will tell you to re-tweet; many will tell you that you might as well not exist without a MySpace Music page; some will even go as far as to say you can’t or won’t be viable without any (or all) of these tools in your arsenal. We believe that it mostly depends on your mission and your measurement of progress (then ultimately success).

Remember, we’re addicts of cool too; just maybe not the way you are.

Email-us, call-us, fax-us; whatever makes sense to you. It doesn’t matter if you’re a reader, listener, wizard who wants to bless us with a success potion etc.

Do what feels right all around.

Thanks for reading.
