I was wondering for a while, if ToZ had an anthem or a representative song, what or which one would be in your opinions?

We currently do not, but there are many unofficial songs that our community likes.

I am going to need a composer so we can compose this. I have written the words for it, but we might likely need a non-vocalized version, too.

Our composer must be of classical music or a related genre, such as orchestral and so on. Other talent of other genres is also welcome.

For this, please contact me at [ email redacted ]

Now, speaking of good music, getting addicted to Too Many Zooz lately.

Would definitely love something like Old Germany used to have, those patriotic things like pretty girl and stuff.

You've got good taste, bro.

I think this would be my favourite one from Too Many Zooz.

Thank you, indeed.

By the way, while we wait for our Paganini, perhaps everyone could make some samples based on text provided [if any] and construct such music to fit.

I mean, for why we have AI these days?

That is an amazing idea. A Temple of Zeus anthem would be such a beautiful thing to hear! I have some songs, maybe they can help:

This song is old, many may know it. The choir is beautiful, the voices together remind me of the ToZ union. There are many songs from Peter Gundry's "Goëtia" Album, which are beautiful and appeal to me.

- Monstrance Clock, Ghost. A version of the song, which is very harmonious and with great vocals, the rhythm is also nice.

It needs to sound like lightning, instantly powerful, recognisable. We can't accept anything less. There are rock songs with literal gibberish lyrics about random obscure silent movies, that have that quality.

The most recognisable classical music it has to be in the same league with, but it also has to speak from our time to. Ideally any song attributed to the ToZ has to pioneer some new form of musical innovation in the classical format, if not another. That is a massive Satanic characteristic of all music: "ahead-of-time-ness" or at the "centre" of the current time.

Regardless how much they are of Satan, these songs have the lightning quality

Violent Femmes - Blister in the Sun https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=JE-dqW4uBEE&pp=ygUhdmlvbGVudCBmZW1tZXMgYmxpc3RlciBpbiB0aGUgc3Vu (also Add It Up, both songs are instantly recognisable and powerful, yet weird and unlikely - they're just about sexual frustration)

2 other songs which were literally the start of a mass cultural shift regardless for the better or worse , Jefferson Airplane - White Rabbit/Somebody to Love - https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=tKtJ0XTwgTE

Its an energetic signature that is connected to this intense ubiquitous feeling, that these sounds were just 'supposed' to happen- not just playing away. Like it comes from somewhere beyond, but also makes *COMPLETE* sense musically too. You will find songs like this where you listen the first time and it feels like you have heard it before somehow, whether you were a child or it could only be a past life or even deeper.

I don't know whether its relative to me or if other people understand what I mean by this. But its these songs like House of the Rising Sun, Luke kelly's Dirty Old Town? They have this lasting power that in a musical sense I've treasured and envied ever since I was aware of it.

I think I posted this one here before on the older forum, the Flower of Magherally - https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=MYfbL6ZV9Rw

A good deal of Irish folk music has similarities with Ancient Egyptian music in terms of the time signatures and whatnot. It must have taken a lot out of the people who wrote that music at the time and place they were in. So it should here too, of all places!

I've emailed you. This is right up my alley. I've emailed you. I just got mandated for overtime this weekend, so time will be even more strained than usual, but eventually I'll deliver. I've had the idea to compose music for ToZ for a long time, and I have old projects that have collected dust, but now that there is a sudden time crunch and demand, I'll try to scrounge whatever time and energy I can manage to put something together.

I suggest that we take some musical inspiration from Japan, or at least some eastern feel as this does strongly reflect much of the content one reads on the Temple of Zeus and practices. Maybe some animes like DBZ or Jojo? Maybe some Folk religious inspiration? Something that unites us as a community would be greater as an anthem than a more distant emotional piece.

This sounds like good fun, I'm eager to hear what everyone comes up with.

https://youtu.be/lDQ7hXMLxGc something like this, only the EXACT OPPOSITE in lyrics and all, JUST the melody :lol:

Or this https://youtu.be/UsnRQJxanVM
It has to be something epic of course.

Maybe inspiration from 1 of the "2 steps from Hell" groups songs

I know 2 or 3 Brothers who will most likely present with most noble involvement. I personally am not good at this yet it's amazing how proficient our community is in everything, as a whole.

Completely agree that the Satanic Anthem should be very classical (with a powerful orchestra). I can't compose so I can't help at all here, but I guess it should sound like or like it was made by someone who has written music after actually hearing Father Zeus's playing it first, like Giuseppe Tartini with the super famous "Devil's Trill Sonata".

One of my favourite pieces (that I think represents us a lot too) is "Night On Bald Mountain" from Modest Mussorgsky.
It's some of the most powerful music I know of, and the ending was apparently changed because damned christians complained about it sounding "too Satanic", which forced Mussorgsky to replace the ending with a "church bell" in order for the music to be heard in the future.

Not that anyone remembers the fucking church bell, we all love the beginning and body of it, feeling the obvious power surge when thoroughly enjoying this amazing piece.

HAIL ZEUS FOREVER!

Death In Vegas All Lyrics
Scorpio Rising Lyrics & Songs
When you kiss the base of my spine
Make my body into your shrine
You give me this feeling deep inside
One that I can no longer disguise
While other snakes just shed their skins
Fucked holes pointing out my sins
Even though I realise that history’s not on my side
Even though I realise the pioneer skin still curls up in my eyes

If I don’t go crazy, I’ll lose my mind
I saw a life before me but now I’m blind
I wanna go to heaven, never been there before
I wanna go to heaven, so you give me some more

Flying high upon the gallows
Too messed up to step out of the shadows
A drugged up heart that knows no sorrow
Rescued from this deep dark hole
Stick on these boots and sharpen the nails
Time is nigh for you leather girls
Maybe we should end this race
Vanish while we cannot leave no trace

If I don’t go crazy, I’ll lose my mind
I saw a life before me, but now I’m blind
See one-arm film stars on alien beaches
Potted gold and tattooed faces
Harrison murals on the corner, tupperware boxes full of hops
Diazepam dreams there catching streams
Paper dinosaurs flash blue and green
Still I’ve got a flash-bulb head
Still I’ve got a flash-bulb head

If I don’t go crazy, I’ll lose my mind
I saw a life before me but now I’m blind
I wanna go to heaven, never been there before
I wanna go to heaven, so you give me some more

Come along nice, come along dead
Scorpio rising, and paint it red
A psychic equalizer in your head
Come along nice, come along dead
Scorpio rising, and paint it red
A psychic equalizer in your head (repeat all)

Maybe you have already seen this thread, but perhaps Agni could be of use for this: https://www.ancient-forums.com/viewtopic.php?p=422957#p422957

Greetings to all!
I hope I posted in the right thread.

Yesterday, after the ritual, while meditating on the sigil of Andras, I came up with a melody that I wanted to write. I had never done music writing through a program before, but I felt that this was exactly what I should do. The form of the musical composition turned out to be quite simple, cyclic, and quite short in duration, but I tried to make it as lively as possible.

The name of this composition is "The Procession of Andras".

https://mega.nz/file/ddx3hAIC#lBuSBWGRwkfbk0rDZTchNEv_-lD6ue5s27l6hwEAClM

I hope you enjoy listening to this music and feel the energy of the greatness of our god Andras while listening.

Hail Andras!

This is a great idea! If I can be of any use, I will do my best.

Sorry to say here, but Lightning wings voice doesn't sound properly supported in the audio.

I understand that singing a whole song through is hard and that there are parts that aren't going to be great compared to others.. there were some good points..

but to me personally it was a turn off, or maybe I am just too spoiled.

But this begs for a question Ive been wanting to ask, but didnt since this topic was about instrumentals..

Who is going to do vocals? or is that a question for later?

You're fine!!

Like I said, I'm not a professional singer, I'm self taught. It's alright if somebody doesn't like my singing or whatever, I just wanted to put it out there, so others who might need it can find comfort in it.

I thank you for telling me tho!
I don't play any instruments either, perhaps one day I'll be worthy to a larger audience, but yeah. Thanks! :D

Forgot to add, that SapphireDragon https://ancient-forums.com/viewtopic.php?p=429936#p429936
Is most talented!! She seems to both sing and create music herself, so I'd recommend her!! :)

And if anything, there are far more talented people out there, like SapphireDragon being one, and so on.
I'm no where near as being professional, haha. But yeah.

This one would fit in well with the spirit of the gods, it's the hymn of Apollo sung by a High Priest of the Ancient Greek pagan religion who passed away in collaboration with a pagan Black metal band from Greece
