Sorry it's taken so long to reply. I haven't been on this site for years! I think i might come back though! Thanks for the review!

Bloody hell! Has it really been four years since i've been on this site? Hope you're well Pat?

Unfortunately you'd never see me in a flower arranging contest as i prefer cross stitch and basket weaving.
Thanks for checking the track out as i know it's not really your thing.
I haven't written anything as good as this for ages so i bought a bunch of synths hoping to add some new dimensions to my sounds. Trouble is i don't know what i'm doing with any of them yet so it aint happening at the moment.
Cheers again for dropping by Dave. Always good to hear from you.
FR

Thanks man. Comments are the whole reason i post up here so cheers for leaving your thoughts.
FR

Cheers man. I can't seem to write stuff as good as this these days so i thought i'd give it a re-up.
Glad you could stop by and leave your thoughts.
FR

Glad you like it. The vocal sample was actually a freebie from the FL demo projects.
Glad it's still on your playlist and thanks for tuning in again.
FR

Sorry for the late reply, I missed your comment somehow so thanks for listening (especially since this isn't your cup of tea)
Cheers for sparing the time to listen to the track.
FR

Thanks for stopping by.
FR

Whoa! Haven't had any comments on this for a while and i've just noticed that there are three other people i haven't got back to for a year (whoops)
FL is not that difficult to get into if you've used other programmes. I think most of them are pretty similar, they just have different layouts.
But anyway, i'm glad you could drop in and leave your thoughts on this track.
FR

You probably don't remember but you reviewed this track 10 MONTHS AGO! I only just noticed that you had as i've only just recently started using this site again. So, sorry for the late reply first of all.
Secondly, thanks for sharing your thoughts on this track.
FR

Well it's only taken me a whole year to reply to this comment so i'd say that's pretty good going wouldn't you?
No seriously, sorry i missed this one somehow and only just noticed it because someone else reviewed the track.
Thanks for listening and just for the record i did have a soundcloud account but i didn't really like the site so i've never used it.
Can't remember my password or account name anymore and i found it about as user friendly as a chilli flavoured tooth brush.
FR

Ha ha ha! I'm laughing because you reviewed this track over a year ago and i've only just noticed that i owe you a reply.
ONE YEAR! ha ha ha! what an asshole i am huh?
No, in all seriousness i've only started using the site properly in the last couple of months so that's why the reply took so long.
Cheers for checking out this tune.
FR

Thanks JJ. I've been missing this site and all the inspiring comments from resident looperheads. I would have definitely listened to more of your stuff had their been anymore to listen to. I see from other track titles that you have been sharing your accapellas so rest assured when i am up and running again with a decent up to date DAW i will be homing in on your vocal talents. They say a bad workman always blames his tools but i have to say, after being stuck with FL3 for the last few months that saying isn't always true (excuses, excuses)
Thank you for dropping in again and assuring me that i'm not complete rubbish.
FR

Hey Estefano. How's things with you?
Sorry for the late reply but i'm not often onlin at the moment so thought i'd take this opportunity to catch up with some of the members i owe a review or two to.
Thanks for your thoughts on this track, by the amount of feedback i've had i'm starting to think i might have done something right.
Thanks for stopping by and checking it out.
FR

Thanks mate. Sorry for the late reply. I'm not in the best position at the moment (no job, no money, no lap top)
It's nice that i can tune in every once in a while and see that people are still leaving me comments while i'm trying to get back on track.
Thanks.
FR

Thanks mate. I'd love to keep up the good work but i'm out of action for the time being (another lap top bites the dust)
Anyway, thanks for stopping by and i'll be over to your profile once i'm sorted out properly.
Thanks again for your comments and time.
FR

Thanks mate. Sorry to take so long in getting back to you. Things have been a little messed up for me this last month or so. I'll get back to you properly when i'm sorted out which shouldn't be too much longer (i hope)
Anyway thanks for stopping by and leaving comments.
FR

Thanks mate. Sorry for the late reply. I'm out of action at the moment so i've not had a chance to get on line and reply to anyone for ages.
Thanks for taking the time to listen to this track and leave your inspiring comments.
I'll be over to check out what you've been doing when i'm up and running again.
FR

Hey mate. Sorry for the late reply. I've had a few problems to deal with and haven't been able to log on so it's not that i'm ignoring you in case you were wondering.
Glad you liked this track enough want to spin it so yeah knock yourself out (if you haven't already)
Take it easy mate. I should be up and running agin in the next few weeks so i'll stop by properly when i'm sorted out.
FR

Thanks Carlos, I couldn't agree more. I actually find it quite incredible the amount of people that seem to think that we're all just going to pay attention to what they are doing, when it would seem they can't be bothered to put themselves out for anyone else. I mean i thought the whole point of this place was to hook up with other music lovers and win listeners. Or have i missed something?
Anyway, I'm glad you could find a moment to drop in and give this a listen/download. It makes it that little bit more special that i know you're busy at the moment. I'm also happy that you would be willing to talk shop with me sometime as i rate your skills among the best i've heard on this site. I look forward to it.
FR

Thanks mate, I'm suprised at the feedback this ones got as i didn't actually spend that long on it. Just goes to show you CAN work too hard sometimes.
Your comments are always appreciated DKP & i'm glad you liked the tune.
FR

Thank you in return for upping my stats a little more. I'll give you a few tips about this place as well to get you going.
The first thing is that winning regular listeners around here isn't as easy as we'd all hope. You have to spend a bit of time finding peeps that will leave comments and suchlike. The best peeps to start with are the regular forum posters 90% of them will check out your tunes if you listen to theirs.
The rest unfortunately is a bit of a numbers game. I've reviewed loads of tracks this week and so far i think i've had about three back from people i hadn't previously had one from. You've just got to try not to let it p*ss you off (It does though sometimes lol)
The other one that i find probably the most effective is to use the accapellas. If you do a good job with them then people tend to drop by more often.
Oh and if you post a track that gets no response then sometimes it's just a case of bad timing. If you play it back and can't hear anything wrong with your mix then delete it and upload it again the next day. It's quite astonishing the difference that can make. I've actually been thinking about trying an experiment where i just keep uploading the same track every day to see what happens. I bet it would bag just as much a response as uploading different ones every day.
Anyway, I wont bore you any longer but hopefully this will help to get you started here.
FR

Thanks man, I'm glad that you enjoyed listening to this track.
I'll be checking out more of your work for sure.
FR

Thanks BSM, it's encouraging to know that you think it's good enough to be sold. Perhaps i should be thinking about trying to make a few quid instead of giving it away all the time.
One day perhaps.
I just popped over to your profile but i see you're new here.
Give me a tap on the shoulder when you've uploaded something and i'll gladly stop by and give it a listen.
I'll forget otherwise.
Thanks for stopping by and playing this track.
FR

Ha ha! No worries. Bit of a communication breakdown going on there.
I'll be over to check out what you've been up to shortly.
FR

Ah, Mr Winn. How good of you to stop in. Yes, Breakbeats a bit of a difficult genre to figure out as there are lots of different varietys of it. I personally just go with the philosophy that if it aint got a four to the floor beat pattern & it's electronic, then it's breakbeat. Or it could be 2 step, or garage, or whatever lol.
I'm glad you managed to find a moment to tune in and check it out.
FR

Thanks mate, The first time i posted it, It got a big fat zero so i'm just happy that it doesn't sound like a two year old made it this time lol.

Thank you my friend. I'm glad you like the track and that's a bit of a mouthful that methylenedioxy watchemacallit.
Cheers for leaving your thoughts. I've had a right sh***y old day and words like this cheer me right up.
FR

Thanks man, Just been checking out your page. I'm digging that funky electro breakbeat number as i type. I like your style and i'll be tuning in more often.
Thanks for dropping in and leaving comments & links.
FR

Yeah, Breakbeats a funny old genre. I love the distinctive records kind of style but i'm not too keen on the fuel records kind of vibe, which seems to have been invented solely for rude boys to show how much bass the sub woofer in their boot kicks out.
There is an odd bass note panned to the side? I knew i shouldn't have done this on drugs!! Sh*t!! I'll have a look and see if i can find the offending sound.
But on the plus side, Since i know you don't like to hold back on constructive critisism i can content myself with one mistake.
Cheers for dropping in.
FR

Thanks Bear, I'm just glad it didn't go for another round of Zero reviews and Zero downloads like it did when i first uploaded it. It did sound like c**p when i played it back again though. The LFO's were so harsh it sounded a bit like one of those old ferric oxide tapes when they got old and worn out lol.
It's funny you should turn up now as i found myself staring at the "get on the bus" rar file earlier and thinking "I was going to have a go at that wasn't i?" tsk tsk! Perhaps now would be a good time to start huh?
Thanks for dropping by and checking out this latest offering.
FR

Yeah, i have this terrible habbit of just chucking tunes up as soon as i get to the end. Then i play them back the next day when i can hear again properly and think "So that's why nobody's commented on it then"
I'm glad that this time round you liked it enough to bag a copy and i hope it helps you get stuck into those modern day torture machines they install down the gym these days.
FR

Thanks Wayne. Now what i really need to do is stop posting stuff before it's ready. It's a terrible habbit and i do it every single time, without fail.
Thanks for giving it a listen. I'm feeling a lot happier that this time round it's managed to get more than zero comments and zero downloads. It must have sounded shocking before lol!
FR

First of all that name you've chosen for yourself is like a subliminal message. I keep thinking "Get towel, bucket and spade and head to beach"
Thanks for your kind words of inspiration. It's comments like that, that make it all seem worthwhile.
Cheers for stopping by.
FR

Yeah, I've been trying to make good some of the half done tracks i've had floating around in the background. So far this is the only one thats made it to the end.
The vocal sample was a freebie from FL studio and it was just pure luck that i decided to peruse the demo projects and see if there was anything i could pilfer. There's some quality stuff in there and i'm suprised i don't hear more people using them to be honest.
The trippy vocals are courtesy of the fruity slicer. It just automatically chops your wavs up into whatever sized slices you want to work with and assigns them to the piano editor. It's a great tool!
Thanks for dropping in and listening.
