"BILO IV" | writing: "Crumbs"

[@DavidMaximMicic]

Here’s a short video I managed to capture of me going crazy over a simple note choice while writing a piece called "Crumbs" that opens up my upcoming record "BILO IV" | November 25, 2022 ❤️ Hop you enjoy it :)

[@maikel2321]

Duude I've waiting for this announcement for so long!! Can't wait to hear this album!!

[@Technatura83]

God this dude is something else. Bilo IV for me has been like waiting for Half Life 3. This album's gonna be fucking sick.

[@DavidMaximMicic]

There’s nothing like a Half Life 3 wait 😩

[@Technatura83]

​@@DavidMaximMicic Well at least you're releasing something. Based on Valve's many different game series, they just don't know how to count to 3. At least you were able to count to IV. 😁

[@netchkin]

@@DavidMaximMicic sorry but I agree with Nash's original comment and had to down-vote yours!

[@riggar]

i remember one thing you said a while ago: "If people care more about melody, it would be a better place" Could,'t agree more

[@SevmakesMusic]

those animations on the wall are so dope, such a little detail but it makes the whole message come across so much more clearly!

[@JuhBon]

That melody in the end gave me goosebumps; this gonna be greatest release of all times imo!

[@RTSRAZORBACK]

Same! As David said, melodies have such power and getting them right is worth obsessing over - the note at 2:21 where it starts slightly out of key and bends back in, resolving the tension from being out of key, was what did it for me.

[@AlmostGrewMyHair]

Cheers to haunting melodies.

[@davidgotze8010]

There are so many emotions, decision, self-doubt, et cetera involved until a song is finally done and it gets released. It's really great to get these insights on how DMM creates his music. This level of authenticity is something I find truly inspiring.

[@zMPHz]

There's just something really magical about your music, David. That short clip was enough to give me goosebumps I haven't felt in a long time... ❤

[@Nubious]

In awe and melancholy, I found your first "bilo" in Pandora Radio about 11 years ago. Ever since, your music has become a sort of therapy, an amalgamation of desires and passions all powerful enough to tear down "egos" and sensitive enough to please the "eco" around us. To each their own though, not everyone likes their coffee black, but I want it to be a "Sordid" pink. To be a master at something your heart, soul, and mind must work in tandem. The future is yours David. ❤

[@thefloop2813]

Many arrangements on Bilo IV (And every other work youve released).... i listen to over and over again, The haunting and enchanting melodies, the flow from one piece to the next, the musical story being told, the emotion and conviction in every single note of every single instrument and word... I have found myself in more then one conversation (with a fellow music nerd/lover) that ends up lumping you in with the greatest composers of all time, rather a group of contemporaries. The quality of your composition is just other-wordly, timeless. I truly hope your name lives on generation after generation, and will do everything i personally can to make that so.

[@danielschafhautle1691]

Just this little section alone managed to pull at my heartstrings. I don't know how you do it, but.... every note just feels.... right? Can't wait for the album, loved the two teasers so far and Dx2 = me.

[@SkunkDozer]

Bro, thanks for highlighting your process and intentions. Your music definitely reflects the preciousness with which you handle it.

[@twitch.101]

This is the first full record of yours I’ve heard, and it’s just exactly what I’ve been needing to hear. I hope you continue the occasional vocal heavy tracks on future albums, it was the perfect balance on this one.

[@encryptor6710]

David, you are beyond music. You do things to the soul that not much music can do for me. Im not just saying that to give you some lip service. You really have a special talent to reach in and pull things out that arent supposed to be found.

[@jonathankkennedy]

The message on my alt-account seems to have been deleted (KZbin's automated systems are broken), but as it once said, Ive been listening to your works since Bilo I, when "part 2" blew me away. The idea that it's been twelve years has me shook. Everything you've released then and since has been excellent. I, II, III, ego/eco, stock challenge vol1, Who bit the moon?, It's all been amazing music (and I haven't even mentioned destiny potato/sordid pink), and I gotta say, I'm super hyped for Bilo IV. Looking forward too it.

[@TomWilliams134]

Thanks for sharing this, as well as the rest of your music. Can't wait for the album!

[@satch72]

Looking forward to all of it

[@ebutuoy6456]

Amazing little piece of music. I was thinking the whole time: Why not both? Such a nice little twist. THE HYPE IS REAL!!!1!! 1!

[@thepursuerofhappiness2491]

I listened to your album on a 10 hour drive back home.... Thank you friend for changing my drive into a journey. Also-- congrats.

[@clairedonison6203]

Um. Just finished listening to the whole album. I could feel the serotonin pumping through my body. Thank you. It's amazing. It's amazing It's amazing

[@nathansantos.n8]

even this short teaser brings so much magic to why i love instrumental music so much. you really express this well and I love how you convey it in both visual and thru your music. I loving how you're dropping these new orchestra flavours to all your recent teasers while we know we will also be expecting proper progressive rock djent or whatever you call your small little special genre with your melodies and that haunting bass tones that can only be associated to you. I can't wait to listen to the whole thing and drown myself in it.

[@Bosmek]

Damn, I am so ready for this.

[@ale29ale9ale99]

I love this piece, it reminds me a lot of "Loves goes on and on" but better 😍. Thank you David for always making me dream ❤️.

[@itLEAKED]

Your music makes me feel, it moves me, fills me with emotion. That is priceless. Thank You!

[@kantankerousk]

The album is beautiful my dude!!!! Thank you for this moment!

[@Blentostamin]

When I see this I am ready to wait for another two, three...six months if need be. If you can muster this much patience to gift us with another piece of perfection, than it should be little effort for us to find it as well. Our patience will be rewarded with yet another sonic journey through our deepest self. Burazeru...svaka čast!

[@vincentgouret771]

You're a musician for sure, but also and above all an artist.

[@clairedonison6203]

Adding a few of these songs to my yoga Playlist for my classes

[@Psyshimmer]

Amazing stuff. Thanks for continuing to make music. It's a pleasure to be here to listen to it.

[@Pilsum]

Wow thanks for sharing , we really liked this melody 🙌🏻

[@leonarrow]

I remember the day I discovered your music and as well as your ability with haunting melody, it is the attention to every detail that brings me back time and time again. No other musician to me is as complete an artist as you and your production values are like no other. To listen to your music is to be transplanted to another world and what is so wonderful and unusual in heavier music is that it is always hopeful. I can't wait for this release.....but I definitely will. Never stop.

[@rahovalce]

Can't wait! I will preorder now!

[@WinterhouseRecords]

If the choice of word "haunt" means we're in for more exploration of darkness and melancholy, then one fan here is really stoked! I think you have mastered the ability to demonstrate hope and happier times with your music throughout your discography. At times, it's difficult for me to explore happiness and positive nostalgia within my writing, so I tend to gravitate towards the spirit of "hopeful pessimism". Cliche incoming: you simply cannot have light without darkness. I relate to that concept wholeheartedly. I would like to start transitioning that spirit into "cautious optimism", or something similar to that sentiment one day... For now I think I'm still a hopeful pessimist 🙃. It appears that you have found something similar: that both spectrums of light/dark are equally important and necessary to complete the human experience (at least in my opinion). I hope you and your family are well, and I'm eagerly anticipating your new music!

[@itsAbsolem]

Kako volim kad eksperimentises i pomesas sve zivo, spojivo i (naizgled) nespojivo, i svaki put pokidas ♥! Vec znam da je vredno cekanja haha

[@NoemiTerrasi]

Those animations on the wall are top notch, loved every second of this video ❤️ that melody really resonate with me, can't wait for the album ❤️

[@JakeMcGuiremusic]

Excellent, David. I absolutely cannot wait for the album. Also really looking forward to more videos like this. I hope you and your family are doing well.

[@Dhrune]

My man David out here making me cry by just writing a text about vibrating air

[@keroflobs]

Your song writing always makes me feel. Nothing quite like it imo. So excited for the 25th!!

[@sethculver1082]

You music is so special, it literally speaks to my soul

Loved it! Super stoked for your latest release. :)

[@svenhegenmusic]

[@collabiloration9954]

We definitely didn't have that melody at home...

[@Th3EpitapH]

nah but you guys had some bangers though. that first song had a theme or two it used real well, iirc

[@melodyz5592]

So beautiful

[@vatican2397]

Congrats! Bests

[@Th3EpitapH]

man arrangement wasn't even on that list of stuff you're thinking about with music, and then you pull that stuff out at the end. don't tell me you're just that goated for free

[@martyfrancis1011]

David is a prodigy. Can't wait for Bilo IV. I really hope that one day all his music is released on Vinyl. What do you say...David?

[@DavidMaximMicic]

It's just my trauma 👏😂 I look forward to the day my Vynils are released too 🫣

[@quisge]

Please also release this on CD.
