Description : I had 30 minutes spare between lessons this morning, so rather than twiddle my thumbs I decided to record something. This is what came out of that session. I placed a capo on the 9th fret of my acoustic, found a sequence and recorded it in one take, then picked up the soprano sax, and realizing I was in the key of F#major set about a melody pronto. I started to record after a run through and felt I should keep the first take after listening back. It pretty much captures what was in my head. Recorded using line 6 tone port and Ableton live. I hope you enjoy it's relaxing quality.. Cheers Slap...
Description : A track I did with a friend ages ago. I play the guitar and he sang and wrote the lyrics. The lyrics came mostly from headlines in the newspaper that sunday. Recorded using a crappy old microphone direct into cubase with a few overdubs
Description : Just an acoustic/piano piece I threw together a few nights ago when coming home from university. My brother and I were doing some acoustic music together in my room, just having fun; came out with this; I immediately got on my DAW and recorded it before I forgot how ti went lol. Hoping to get some strings on it soon as well as some vocals from the bro! :P In the meantime, enjoy this instrumental.
Description : Here's a lil' acoustic instrumental I never wrote words to. Used a Guild acoustic guitar mic'd with an AKG C214 and my trusty ol' Yamaha MOX8 for other instruments (excluding shaker - that was real ;). You can find the guitar loops to this song on my profile page. Maybe one of you looperpeeps can come up with something for words on this. Otherwise, enjoy le moosic :3
Description : This is an acoustic cover of the song "Come As You Are" by David Crowder. I recorded, mixed, and mastered this one in two days! Almost done burned me out haha! Hope you enjoy!
My older brother does the lead vocals and I do everything else, from instrumentation to harmonies. No vocal-editing whatsoever in this one. The guitars were all one-take recordings. Updated the audio - I added tambourine hits in the 2nd and 3rd choruses; just helps make for a more moving song.

Description : It gives me great pleasure to upload this track I did with Richie. Usually we work "backwards", with him building a track around my vocs, but this time his instrumental came first. I love it's encouraging and motivational lyrics and as always Richie's care in making EVERYTHING perfect! :-) Totally didn't know what genre to put it in. Enjoy.
Description : NOTICE: this song is made ONLY FOR NON-COMMERCIAL PURPOSES. Contains an emulation of a TM legendary song (send to the original authors, i add them on Fb time ago).
This is a surprise, for those was young in 1999, for the beloved Patricia (and the gift of her voice) and my brothers Nous2 and Jamid, kind people i met here. Let's go crying guys, hope you enjoy.
Description : Working on my acoustic recording quality. What do you guys think? I'll extend this once it's closer to completion.

Description : There were two separate tracks in work, but who knows why I got tired with them and then decided to merge them (or at least what left from them) into one piece hence they originate out of same musical purpose. No worries...no world war was ment here, except my recent personal one...haha...and you don't want to know about it.:) It's not real etude by any means, yet it's quite alot about practicing...practicing...
Description : This is my attempt at the one-hour challenge for LM (finished at 57 min 48 sec). I had to mix/master on the go and this was the result. Some bad chords here and there that I did my best to conceal, one-takes on guitar and piano and used an awesome acapella from a1000times, who wrote the words that Dikaiko sang over. I really like her voice. Anyhoo yea, I like this one a lot so probably gonna come back to this in the near future. Comments welcome.
I got the acapella here: https://www.looperman.com/acapellas/detail/7656/marauder-feat-dikaiko-by-a1000times-132bpm-dance-acapella
EDIT: This track has been updated. I think I'm going to call it finished :)
Description : BEAUTIFUL guitar with pianino chords. This is sad guitar. But this guitar have a positive mood.
Description : I put this under acoustic even though I did use a couple midi tracks. I felt they sounded acoustic enough to put the track in that category. Suppose it could be chill out as well, however you want to label it, do so. I used an Indian flute and an electric guitar sounding plugin with some tremolo added along with acoustic guitar, mandolin and harmonica. Nothing too complicated here and I felt it sounded good enough to upload so enjoy!
Description : This track contains only free loops from several Looperman artists. Had to thank once again the excellent loops to their owners - i think the result is one of my best tracks ever, plus have a slight spaghetti western like feeling which is cool ... Hope you will like it too. :)

Description : Remastered March 2023. Recorded live on two mics. For my wee daughter Tui; I wrote it sitting on the bathroom floor, keeping her company while she was in the bath....
I sure hope you make a living doing this you are excellent! Very relaxing music Im gonna use for therapy :)
Killed your 30mins free time? I couldn't do that even if i killed myself lol. Great skills you have the ability to make some1 become your fan in one go :D
Glad you had a half an hour to kill. I couldnt do this in a year of trying. If you have any flaws in this song, you are probably the only one that can hear them.
Awesome.
Bossle'
this is a very chilled out song and i love it. if you can turn this out in 30 min man you seriously have something great goingggggg
Such a beautiful piece of music......the sax just drifts you away and guitar is spot on.
Welll done
Trax
Beautiful and simple... each note hit the spot... very relaxing indeed...
doing this in one take... wonder!!
simple and beautiful.. very nice piece of music .. genius thanks .......... not heard from you for a while mate hope youre ok. mik
DUDE SLAP, the guitar is so pretty on this peice, your so lucky youy can just turn this out, amazing talent.
you just made a song quicker than i got the pizza i ordered...i don't know whether to pack it up now or...lol. you do it all, I have downloaded lot's of your sax loops and have been eagerly trying to find a way to use them. top notch and the highest respect to this song and your musical talent! Have a good one slap!
Usual slap magic, hmm, i so need to become xyler from heroes and absorb your gift ! - *steals musical talent* - nice work for 30mins
You know, the uncluttered feeling of this song is what makes it beautiful... in a world full of music that's always finding new and interesting ways to make beautiful noise, it's nice to take a breath and listen to something so sublimely simple. Gorgeous - nice to hear you again (and nice to be back :)) x
naw slap its just hooka! hahaha i have a couple of those pics tho! lol. man! i listened to this and went to bed , had great dreams and fell fast! no worries type of sleep!
Mos' ReQuest~
I didn't even look at the title and thought "hmm, this sounds like reflecting music", so i think you got it bang on, good job!
beutiful piece. Like the simple guitar work. Iv'e loved hearing acoustic guitar and sax. for a while.
Haha..what i wrote came out bad!..i'm not getting married quite yet!haha..i'm only 18!..but one day (mark my words!lol)..when i do wanna settle down..i'll contact u..keep up the good work..aall the best..peace
just beautiful. it has that feeling of 'i am sad that its gone but i am glad i did it' if that makes sense? nice one
Hunta
oh and i favourited!lol
Excuse my french..but that was fu*k*ing amazing!!!!!!!!!...totally blew me away..i want you at my wedding!haha..god's musical gift to earth=slap..peace
I guess when it comes down to it,the fundamentals apply in the creative process...Conceptualise-Act upon it.Is it the clear first thought that crystallizes or the unembellished execution of that thought?...whatever the case may be the result is the same....an amount of soul has been transferred from the artist to his work....not an easy task that can be duplicated every time....these are the special moments.......you have quite a few in your tracks....but ones like this stand out for me.....sparse,distant yet intimate,no hangups or issues just plain simple music from the soul.
in 30mins!! wow. and that was relaxing quality im now relaxed and ready for another day :D
very nice guitar :D
way too good man, u r just blessed with the magic of the music, i dont know what to say, simply the best music on this site
peace man
mouko
That's 30 minutes well spent Mr Slap!
Very chill track, the instruments complete each other. I really like it when you hold that note around 2.05. Soothing...
Well done mate.
Cheers S.
