Description : Guys, I have been asked again to do another track for another friend's son.
He has asked me to do the track with an eighties heavy ascent.
I have come up with this I hope you all like it.

Description : This is for my friend Danke who can't sleep at night. Yes, heat, heat...I guess Africa is hotter, but don't let the title and intro as well, deceive you! This is not African music nor the imitation of it. It's just a picture of starry African sky at night, painted with my european musical sensibilities and some imagination. So this is for Danke in the first place and then maybe for anyone who would like to fall asleep.:)...
Good night!:)
Description : I just painted a picture of abandoned sanctuary and I thought it could sound like this...:)
Description : Dear Loopers...Let Ed and me take you to the world of yet another musical fantasy born out of our latest collab efforts. Ed provided basic structure of the track with ever solid rhythm section, tasty synths and vocal pads while I took
on a role of pretending to be multi-instrumentalist again by smuggling in some sweet strings, bulgarian flute, celtic harp,
unexpectedly blurry piano and this time a tiny bit of real live acoustic guitar...what an adventure for a vst/keyboard guy..:) As always
my sincere thanks to Ed not only for letting me enjoy his great musical company but also for still standing as one of the firm pillars of Looperman society !
Description : I went to the beach and set up my stereo recording mic under a gazebo near it (I apologize for some of the air gusts being recorded haha; we had a strong SE wind that day :P Tried my best to place it out of the wind); wanted to record myself playing live and do some cheesy roleplay in the process - wanted to make it feel like the listener was sitting there beside me. ** This is what the beach looks like: http://static.travel.usnews.com/images/destinations/80/south_padre_island_main.jpg **
Lo and behold, I'm about halfway through the song when my buddy Mark, a friend from college, heard me singing and decided to join me (he seems to never part with his guitar lol).
The expression on his face was that of confusion as to why I had my mic with me and a audio-capturing device, which I plugged into an outdoor electrical plug that the gazebo owners installed lol (I've done recordings like this before but didn't like the results; we messed up a little at the end but I was like meh it's not bad anyways.) but I'm glad he didn't say it out loud or it would have ruined the recording lol. Luckily, I was playing a song he and I wrote together some time ago, so he was able to just jump right in. He's a great guitar player.
Even though it was a little awkward at the end since we hadn't seen each other for like 4 months (you might be able to tell by the way I responded to his "thats so cool" comment haha), I think it turned out just fine. It was a lovely evening and the clouds were all poofy and happy. Lots of people were there too, though I made sure to sit far away from all of them. Ahh, it was a beautiful day. I'm glad I live by the ocean :P * Just kidding, I recorded this in my studio; though I do live close to the water, this was not recorded there :P I did everything, down to the wind blowing into the mic, except for the sound of water and the kids in the background. I got those sounds here: freesfx.co.uk/login/
The guitars and vocals were one-takes to give a more realistic feel. No pitch-correction or autotune. Just wanted to try making another soundscape (or whatever you want to call this :P) about what it's like to live by the ocean.
Description : While I concluded the previous year with the shortest track ever uploaded it seemed only appropriate to begin the new one with my longest track ever. And funny enough I used one and only instrument for this noodling marathon, the celtic harp....and I really couldn't help it, it was just dragging on and on and on...haha...so I think that anyone who could possibly listen to this from start to finish must be a real listening hero..:)^^

If anyone can share a thought about this, it would be really great. I hope you enjoy it if you do and like it then please leave me a comment.
Description : Glen Cloy is one of the glens of Antrim (Tumbleweed's county) in Northern Ireland. The little people, actualy fairies, populate all of them and they all have very old ghost stories that have been told for centuries (and still are)...This one is about Shaman of old and his journeys through the spiritual world...That sums up what Ed told me about the concept for our 7th (how convenient^^) collab work. The main core of the track is Ed's work and the original length was 5:18, but I wouldn't have been Orlando if I didn't tempt to compose my longest intro to date (3:10) to inject my own fantasies about little creatures of Glen Cloy (soft spot for spiritual world..hehe..). Other than that I also added some synths arrangements and vocal samples for the rest of the track and probably ruined it a bit..haha..but that's how collabs are sometimes..:)^^.....All my thanks to Ed...and Irish ghosts ofcourse...

Description : Last time when I uploaded my track called "The Ring Of Saturn" many reviewers stated that it should belong under "ambient" category, since I tagged it as "cinematic"... so this led me to decision to give you the mother of all ambient pieces and here it is!:)Yet, it has something in common with the previous one....you won't need your sleeping pills... again..:)^^
Description : It's been a while since my last upload, yet here is finally the new one and it's 'dangerous' as it gets cause this time I ultimately decided to dedicate this thing to my dear friend Ed, the man well known to Looperman audience as Tumbleweed.. He has been my huge inspiration for those past few years and always will be. Luckily we've made some pretty decent stuff together and more is to come. Working with Ed helped me to improve alot and this composition is now my way of saying 'thank you' to him and music should express my gratitude better than words....One might expect this will be Irish (or Celtic) music, but it's not necessarily the case...as the title suggests it's merely the touch of it....it's like a mirage in the highland mist and it's full of orlandesque crap to be honest...haha...yet I decided to include a tiny snippet of a famous traditional Irish song at the very end of the track and I bet you will recognize it instantly ...particularly for the lads with Irish roots this shouldn't be a problem...:) So, Ed...put your headphones on and be merciful my friend...:)
UPDATE: 10th March 2016 / Today I decided to do an
alternative mix of the track...and hell yeah, I think it sounds much better now !:)
Description : This piece of music is still in some kind of development phase and yet rounded just enough to share it here for the first try and to maybe pick some useful comments and advice. Just don't make a suicide after the first listen, boys and girls, cause it's so sad, sad, sad....:)
As always rei great job. Have you ever done anything that's not good? Great guitar work and the voices fit your description perfect. Take Care rei and thanks for your uploaded loops man.
It's appreciated.
Gord
Hey Rei
Mate your descripton is spot on what you wrote about this one, beautfil intro, very ambient and relaxing piece, good beat, guitar work is spot, arrangement and clarity first class, extremely good listen, ty for sharing your massive talent my friend...fav'd...Peace...Estefaano...
trippy more than anything. im liking the chill vibe this one lets out and that guitar is so sick. you laid it down in this one.
Some nice guitar work in this one, like it.
You must know you're the one I download lots of guitar loops; if it's really you playing, you play great; not published anything yet, of course, send you message as soon as I succeed. As usual, your sound on Voices is great, and I myself share your statement regarding those mysterious voices in our heads; sure have to listen to them.
I'm always on the lookout for some genre-bending music, since I love cross-overs, this one sastisfied my craving for the night. Nice work man, you're on the right path.
Evan
As always. Most enjoyable.
AMAZING...
those GUITARS are just... just
smooth buttery waves takin' over
me mind... everything was EXCELLENTLY
mixed...
those vox samples mos'def added
to the DARK atmosphere of this track.
LOVED it... just LOVED it...
Much Respect from LA
Loving this bit of ambient chillout rock Rei,the guitars give it a very pink floyd feel.
really kool abstract song here!love the clean guitars and man does this flow! how do you get these killer mixes big guy?
Peace
Bm;)
I loved the intro, it was beautiful.
I also really liked the distorted voices. Was that made with kore player?
As Eshar said, it is a bit darker than normal, but you have the guitar in there :)
Nice song, different to what I hear normally. Sounds like a soundtrack to something.
Ste :)
So, you've gone from 1 track posted a couple weeks ago to 39 now? It's daunting trying to choose what to listen to next!
This one I've enjoyed many, many times on Devodale's radio stream, and is probably my favorite track of yours to date (that I've heard). It's also one of my all time favorite Ambient tracks.
Your texturing here is awesome. Like you, I don't find the voices scary, but unsettling and this creates a very interesting tension that is reconciled by the emotion of your guitar. Like it howls and cries for the voices. The guitar also share qualities that remind me of David Gilmore's work - grounded in primal Blues and moved out into post-psychedelic experience.
Downloaded and faved.
I'm so glad you're here, rei4real!
Hi Rei,
Well, checking out the Voices tune you recommended that you updated.
Staring out, the voices are strange, like little kids talking but a cool effect. Nice guitar sound, good background beat and the other instruments filling.
A lot of creativity I feel here. Are you sure your not from another planet visiting us? lol
Randy
this is really relaxing and incredibly mixed. very good!
I really liked this. It reminded of what an interlude to a Mars Volta typed band would be, and I love The Mars Volta. Well done, to be sure. I could listen to this for quite some time.
Really clean and smooth. I love the voice elements, just clear enough to be recognizable, but modulated just enough not to be understood. Very nice!
A really great track. Thank you for your samples and for your music!
kinda weird about the voices at the songs.
But its still cool!!
your songs kinda sound really futuristic
my favorite track of yours so far. the whole concept of it is absolutely awesome. did you just slow down tracks of the voices and change the pitches? its really really cool. when robot's bass comes in and your smooth guitar awesome.
Your have the most important thing for making music. A creative mind. And next is ability. Ability to take what you come up with and get it down so the rest of us can hear it. Very nice. Real feeling in the lead guitar. I'm lucky in the fact that I understand what the voices in my head are saying. Even though part of the time they think they're comedians. But at least I was able to perform an Exorcism on the ones that kept saying "Kill, Kill, Kill" I feel much better now that those ones are gone.
so creative my friend. i absolutely love the fx-vox all the lil things that bring depth to this masterpeice! amazing melody blend with the synth/guitar.
fantastic arrangement and i guess this means SYNTH LOOPS!!!??? ...from you?...hope so. cause this rocks and will be fav'd
if i lived near a nuclear power plant i would give you 3 thumbs up!!!lol
gizz
somebody mentioned needing some snares but the sparsity of the drums is one of the things I like. plus i thought with the glitch loops used, more drums might interfere with your sound here. and the sound is beautiful, especially around 2:40 when you bring your awesome guitar-playing into the mix.
The track never came off as dark to me. It's actually quite an inspiring mix. Fav'd + Downloaded. Cheers, bro.
different than your other stuff...but good must say!!!
interesting!!!!like the guitar sound...
a work of art as always. it rolls along nicely without any problems what so ever. I love the mellow pad in the backdrop aswell as the voices. guitar and piano is immaculate and beautiful. i agree with 22catch the pictures u paint are sureal and delightful. i am jealous of your detailing
keep it up mate.
hunta
Cool Rei....when a musician has his hands on more of the elements they meld into one and reflect off each other..a great addition to the palette...I can see more space vibes entering your work from now on......maximo groove!...cheers planet
Good idea.
But in my opinion you must add some snares,
and you need to write a ambiant drams too,
So try...
