Clandestiny is a one-man musical endeavor designed, produced and enthralled by Matt Duplessie.
His music speaks from his soul, his mind and his heart.
Relentless in digging deeper for the truth, the hidden meanings in life, and the endless potentials in human talent, the music takes a journey inward, speaking to the muse that lies asleep within us all.
Join in awakening the inspiration that reveals true beauty and love, existing and connecting us to the hidden energies and vibrations in life...
"In trying to describe "Clandestiny" words that come to mind are "haunting", "chilling", "thought-provoking" and "intense". I guess you would consider this acoustic. There are no drums on the entire album, but instead an amazing blend of keyboards, voices and vocals, sound effects and other elements. It's almost like a soundtrack to a Horror film in some ways, tracks like "Beginning To See" will disturb you to the bone marrow with it's computerized voice talking about death.
At other times, you can't help but think of Pink Floyd, there are lots of those type of trippy elements in the music. I don't want to promote the use of any mind-enhancing drugs, but let's just say this CD would be perfect IF one chose to partake in such behavior.
Clandestiny is basically Matt Duplessie, he does everything on the CD, which makes the songs even more amazing. He has an amazing voice and an equally amazing talent for song construction. The gothic overtones of the music would fit well into the European Metal scene now with bands like Nightwish and that crowd. If you got Duplessie in a band God knows what sort of magic could be constructed.
If asked to put this music in a genre, I suppose Acoustic Alternative would fit, but it's not a perfect description either. It's really indescribable and an amazing piece of work. The production is also superb, when you listen to this with headphones you really pick up on a lot of different things. This is great chilling out music despite it's intense nature, it really brings you to another place, both relaxing and even a little scary. - Torch"
Hey, thanks. As for my plans, I don't have anything incredibly solid at the moment. I've been editing a music video for a band called 39 Stripes, who just got signed to Universal Records, but so far that's been pro-bono. I'm hoping that will lead to good, paying, things, but time will tell, I guess.
But yeah, I'm actually the same way. For some reason I do more creative work in the winter as well. I'm hoping to get back to writing music soon too. Catharsis Theory's music player has been awfully lonely without any new friends added to the mix, so I need to get on that. Well, it was good hearing from you, and I definitely look forward to hearing your new stuff.
P.S. You and Lucia do make a good team. I just heard "Signs" the other day and I really liked it.
two new tunes with this lucia chick are killing it, i like how both of them have a point torward the end where everything drops out and all sorts of little counter melodies start going apeshit lol
Hey, Matt. Just dropping in to say "hi" and to listen to some of your new stuff. Sorry I haven't stopped by your page recently, I've been fairly busy. I just graduated on October 30th, so that had a lot to do with it.
But anyway, do you have any plans for your next album? I'll totally buy it whenever it comes out. Maybe you could include a copy of your Linguinary in the CD booklet, unless of course, it's too long at this point, ha ha! Well, let me know what's up and how you're doing whenever you get a chance.
Hello! We just got a NEW LAYOUT and a NEW SONG and we would love for you to stop by and let us know your thoughts. Stop on by and say hello we'd love to hear from you!
Hiya! Thank you for the friendship. Don't be a stranger... Keep up the good work. Stay in touch... If you have facebook, add me: sonia garcia mcfree... Much love xoxo
Forget about downloading our music on itunes etc... we've got something even MORE exciting.
You can now actually OWN a piece of the band. Instead of buying our cd right now - you can be a shareholder in our next one. It's a brilliant system - check it out!
You pick how many shares you want to buy - and then once the album is done, you start making money! :) And of course you can back out at any time. It would be really cool to have you on board for this.
