DESCRIPTION:
DOWN BY DAY IS AN ORIGINAL LOOP-CORE BAND FROM LAS VEGAS. THE PROJECT WAS STARTED 2 YEARS AGO BY BRYAN ROSENBAUM AND ERIK CARLSSON, WITH THE INTENT OF INCORPORATING CURRENT SOFTWARE TECHNOLOGY AND HEAVY MUSIC. MANY CURRENT BANDS USE BACKGROUND TRACKS AS A WAY OF FILLING OUT THEIR SOUND. OUR GOAL IS TO HAVE THE TECHNOLOGY PLAY A MORE PROMINENT ROLE IN THE BAND, ALMOST AS IF THE COMPUTER IS THE 5TH MEMBER. USING PROGRAMS SUCH AS LIVE 9, AND SOFTWARE SYNTHS LIKE NEXUS 2, MASSIVE, AND SYLENTH, WE AIMED TO FEATURE LOOPS AND SAMPLES THROUGHOUT THE SONGS. AFTER GETTING ROUGHLY 6 SONGS WRITTEN, WE NEEDED TO FIND MEMBERS THAT WERE INTO THE CONCEPT AND MORE IMPORTANTLY, LIKED THE SONGS. WE WERE LUCKY ENOUGH TO FIND WILL & SEBASTIAN TO FILL OUT THE RHYTHM SECTION, AND WE BEGAN REHEARSING 5 MONTHS AGO. THE GOAL OF DOWN BY DAY AT THIS POINT IS TO PLAY WITH OTHER LOCAL BANDS AND TEST THE WATERS. WE WANT TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE GROWING LOCAL MUSIC SCENE HERE IN LAS VEGAS WITH A STYLE OF MUSIC WE FEEL IS AGGRESSIVE AND ORIGINAL.
