Quintessence is an upcoming music circle, and music group. We will mainly create original songs and content, however we will occasionally do covers. Music will be distributed via Spotify, iTunes, Google Play, etc. Quintessence will release music that can focus one, multiple, or all of our vocalists. We strive to create music that is deeper that people can relate to, but also that takes us to another world, and revolves around fantasy. Genres we will focus on include pop, folk, classical, orchestral, ambient, new age, r&b, and experimental. We will also do a lot of crossovers within genres. We take inspiration from Wave, Akiko Shikata, Kokia, Kaoling, Sam Smith, Ed Sheeran, Jojo, Epica, and more. We are seeking people that are creative, genuine, like to experiment, and don’t like to limit themselves.
Members of Quintessence are expected to commit and be active, this is a permanent group, and you will be expected to meet tight deadlines, and take an active part in insuring our success. Inability to communicate and meet deadlines, will result in potential kick from the group. All members are expected to take part in the creative process as well, and grow as individuals. It will be mandatory for vocalists to adapt themselves and learn how to sing within various genres. For vocalists, they will need to be comfortable being on camera, majority of our videos and pictures will feature the vocalists, and other staff, themselves. Vocalists may sing songs with highly layered vocals that result in singing up to around 25 vocal tracks within 2 weeks, and multiple videos, within another two weeks. They must also have good time management and availability. We will occasionally live stream, and while not mandatory for all members, it is appreciated if you can contribute.
