Bloodywood

[EARLY ACCESS] Bloodywood = "Endurant"

BOOM! It's here! Eagerly waiting to know what you think about it!

MERRY XMAS! (and updates ofc.)

BW family! A very merry Christmas to all of ya!It's been an extremely busy month at BW camp. The song was done a couple of weeks ago (still needs some tweaks), but we felt that it had a very story-teller vibe and just us performing the song in the video would not cut it.I just deleted a a whole paragraph about what this video is gonna be about. Where's the fun in that? Guess!We're still left with one more sequence to shoot - the ending. As Jayant is not in the country right now, I&#3...

Shoot day 1!

UPDATE TIME!

Remember the track we made for Ubisoft's upcoming game? It turned out to be the highest played, commented and liked song on the entire project at Hitrecord.com AND got the attention of several audio curators and the editor of the project.However, 2 weeks back they posted an update that they've decided to close the project. This was somewhat unexpected as they did not set a deadline, nor did they answer any of our repeated questions about how long will the project last. Gutted. But that&#...

New Link for access to all our songs

Hi Guys,We have been receiving a lot of messages from you that certain tracks are not present in the rewards folder. Even though we keep adding the tracks back, for some reason people with access to the folder end up deleting the tracks by mistake. This might be because they "cut" instead of copy.So we've made a new folder for all our tracks which does not allow deletion. Hope this puts an end to this problem. Enjoy the music!P.S. if in any case you cannot find the link to this folde...

The track for Ubisoft is here!

BW family! Here's "Machi Bhasad" (literal translation: "Expect a Riot") - the track we're pitching for the Ubisoft game Beyond Good and Evil 2.Our instructions were to make it anti-system, anti-establishment, subversive and heavy! We've been working our asses off on this for the past few weeks and are quite happy with the final product :)HOWEVER: there's a catch. Even though we were contacted by Hitrecord (the company enlisted by Ubisoft to develop BGE2's musi...

We're writing music for a Ubisoft game!

Recently we were contacted by a representative of a company hired by Ubisoft to make music for an upcoming AAA game of theirs titled "Beyond Good and Evil 2".The game is set in planet "Ganesha" (named after the Indian God Ganesha) and to that purpose they require heavy music that has Indian elements in it. Lucky!This, however, is not a guarantee that whatever we come up with will be a part of the game's music as it has to be approved by the developers. Nevertheless, I feel th...

Our next song - we need your opinions

Backstory:A couple of weeks ago I had called the local carpenter, Kamal, to fix a rocky table. Kamal, a slender, shot-heighted man in his 30s, is soft spoken, well mannered and generally punctual - which is why I prefer employing his services over the housing society's designated carpenter. Born in an impoverished home, he's educated till the western equivalent of the 5th grade and had to drop out to support his family (a very common fate amongst families engaged in manual labour in Indi...

YOU did this.

We don't have much to say. You should read these yourselves:These are only a handful of the hundreds of messages we've received over the past 10 days of the song's release.Thank you for letting us do the best thing we've ever done with our lives.YOU did this.Also, check out the the following screenshots from the counselor (Prachi):Someone availed the free session, and then proceeded to pay for it so that someone else may use it. Anyone watch the movie "Pay it Forward"?We&...

It's here! Tell us what you think!! :)

All set!

Song - checkVideo shoot - checkCrushing anxiety about releasing an original - check checkLooking to publish the video in the next couple of days. Stay tuned!

Let's do this!

Quick recap: A week back we asked you what you thought about us doing a song about fighting depression and also purchasing and giving away 50 sessions of online professional counselling to those our viewers who would like to seek it. Not only did you smash the approve button, but so many of you bumped up your pledge! Is there no end to the Bloodywood family's sheer awesomeness?And thus, the hunt began for the best online counselling portal. We went through all major portals and read extensiv...

Thanks for the advice guys! Here's what's next:

A few weeks ago we asked you what you felt about us signing a record deal and laid down the specifics. Needless to say, the consensus was a confident and resounding NO. Not only are we now 110% certain that declining the contract is the right thing to do, we are also overwhelmed. Here's a sincere, heartfelt thank you to everyone who responded with such solid support and got-your-back attitude. One can only expect such things from family, and you guys have made us realize that that's exac...

We need your advice.

What a month it has been. We've had countless emails of interest from major record labels, PR agencies, booking agents, recording studios, radio channels etc. Needless to say, it has been surreal and we have had to pinch ourselves quite frequently to check whether it was all real.To put this in perspective - you can count on one hand the number of metal bands from India that have ever been signed or toured internationally. Being "signed" is something every Indian band dreams of when ...

A lot has happened! Updates:

We're back! Karan was away attending a cousin's wedding and came back half-dead today (weddings in India are individual festivals of their own). We've got new Patrons on board, hi guys! :D We'll send you your rewards right after this.Needless to say, the last video has done marvelously! We're getting people messaging and commenting from all over the world appreciating the music and its message. Some even claim we've rekindled their interest in metal. Hell yeahh! Here are ...

Hey!

We&#39;re gonna be away for a couple of days without internet access and might not be able to provide access personally to new Patrons. So to get all of our songs, just head over to this link: https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B720cRC6YHIEc2ZHbU03QU82b2M The amount of support we received from you guys over the past few days is downright insane. Thank you so much! We&#39;ll be back in a few days! <3 <3

The streets!

Out on the streets shooting our next video and we ran into a dance group practicing their act. Asked them whether they&#39;d like to feature on our video and within 10 minutes they choreographed something for out track and danced their hearts out. The streets!

UPDATE 2

Vocals - done! Now on to the video..

Playing Castle Crashers with patron Tayler Doying

We had so much fun playing this game! You can check out the video on Tayler&#39;s channel (Drunker Ducky) here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOpkNH3yK8Y6ZTn-_XdWf9wAre you guys into gaming? We&#39;d love to play with more of our patrons :D

:o

It&#39;s official guys! Literally.We&#39;re finally verified on Facebook as an entity.What difference does it make:- Support from Facebook (growth, protection from hacks, protection from copyright claims)- More visibility on Facebook- Better SEO when people search for Bloodywood!This is really encouraging for us as not all entities get verified on Facebook (they are really choosy and have insanely strict parameters), which means we probably are doing SOMETHING right! :D

UPDATE!!

Hey guys! Just dropping in to let you guys know we&#39;re hard at work on the new video. After the overwhelming support we received with Tunak Tunak, we really want to outperform ourselves with every new release and give you our best!As we&#39;ve already shown the rural and festive side of India, for this one we&#39;d like to show you how the city/suburb life looks like! Two things you can expect in this video:1. A very talented guest rapper2. Flute sections! Karan is learning the instrument so ...

We've finally bought our own mic! Thank you Patrons!

Hellyeah! Our first Patreon goal (getting a pro mic) was reached recently. After a lot of research we decided to go with the industry standard! Welcome home the Sure SM58. No more renting out mics at exorbitant rates! We would have never been able to afford a professional studio mic had it not been for your help. Thank you so much guys! We are extremely grateful!! Expect much better audio quality henceforth!

Metal Holi!

Hey!!! Here&#39;s the new video we&#39;ve been trying (and failing) to hype :D&#34;Rang De Basanti&#34;&#39;s literal translation is &#34;paint me with the colours of spring&#34;. It is a festive/patriotic song honouring the unrelenting passion of India&#39;s freedom fighters. Though they may bow their heads in disappointment at the current state of affairs of the country they gave their lives for, here&#39;s hoping that sanity prevails and the commoner finally sees through the thick yet brittle...

Ready for the next video?

This is what we live for!

Hey fellas! Just wanted to share with you guys this beautiful message we received today on our page. YOU make this possible. This month has been crazy! We&#39;re planning a video for Holi, the festival of colours and hopefully it will be up by the first week of March! Are you guys familiar with the festival? Let us know, we wanna feature you in the video too!

Free track + important updates!

We&#39;ve had an amazing response with Tunak Tunak and both of us cannot stop losing our shit over the fact that 55 (and growing) new patrons pledged this month! WELCOME and THANKYOU :D!!!Here&#39;s an adrenaline-pumping instrumental track (&#34;Incoming!&#34;) Karan made recently which we&#39;ve decided to give away to our patrons exclusively, as a token of our gratitude! It&#39;s great for workouts and works exceptionally well when you need to kick someone&#39;s ass! (just make sure you press ...

T-shirt artwork sneak peak! :D

This is in the pipeline! What do y&#39;all think?The instrument at the center that looks like a barrel is called a &#34;Dhol&#34;. Very prevalent in punjabi music and a must-have to get the party started at weddings in India! We used this instrument a lot in Tunak Tunak and Punjabi Metal and you will get to see it in our live shows too!The boar because, of course, BREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEager to know what you think! COMMENT!!
