Dancing To The War Drums - Crucethus

Really good track. Totally interesting sound design.
Lots of emotions in it. I love it.
Love and peace.
Cheers!

Deep emotion locked into an almost tribal soundscape - evocative,lots of movement and incredibly well-composed.

You have gained twelve years of experience in life, yet the song already had its strong messages and it seems that the world has not changed during these twelve years. We have wars, we have victims, who to blame always a great question. I hope world piece will be retained.
You have done a great job with this track.
My regards, Anthony

Unfortunately I share your pessimism. But this was a great trip of a track. Cinematic with a certain gravitas. Zoot.

Potente batería que entra con fuerza y carácter desde el principio, y ese bajo tan elegante y juguetón, tanto como ese piano que va cogiendo su sitio en medio de la pista, y ese sonido tan especial que te engancha con esa particular melodía que acaba por enamorarte de esta pista por completo. Me gusta como te ha quedado amigo crucethus.

LOVE IT CRU...I WAS LOOKIN FORWARD TO COMIN BACK TO LM TO HEAR YOUR TRACKS...BEEN GONE FOR A WHILE...IF THEIRS SOMETHIN U DID THAT U THINK I SHOULD CHECK...LET ME KNOW...CHEERS

Hey, Steve! I missed this one the first time out. I was thinking that your music had become much more innovative and adventuresome as time went on, but clearly I was wrong. It ALWAYS was innovative and adventuresome!

You clearly are working on a different plane than most of us, I think. I'm gravitating back to wanting to hear more House and Trance. So, this really hit the spot for me. Thanks for digging it out again. :)

Eric

Nice! It kind of zips up and down.

I love the power of the kick, it really brings the melody to life and your leads are very lively and energetic :)

Nice piano break and cinematics. Maybe you don't have as much angst in 2020, agenda gets a little exhausting for me but I guess I did click on it right?
Good track overall, remix it in 2027 and maybe the world will fall apart by then, JK :)
You are very creative and manage to reflect the concepts you are attempting to portray accurately in your work, keep it up.

Steve epic track hooked me in i dont usually stay for EP tracks the piano reminded me of the Hans Zimmer inception theme which i loved that film . Very unusual and interesting i listened twice at first. Great job dont ask me how i time travelled to 2013 best regards Robbie

dhffffffffffff

Great !

good job
I like this sound

Nice !

Good work! I was looking for a song to practise my dj skills on, and this looks like it! Thanks mate! :)

And that's it. Thank you so much!

Cool !!!

really like this track

Been wanting to comment on this track for like 5 days now but I couldn't. Like I seriously couldn't cuz I cant go 15 seconds on looperman without my browser crashing.

Anyways I gotta say man around the 1:30 mark where the piano chords and the voices and distant gunshots came in there came about a eerie and powerful feeling that gave me the goosebumps. Not many tracks do that. Then at the same time that transitioned to a more uplifting and bouncy tracks. It created this nice contrast.

Great job I really liked it!

Hello Cru

Just to say to you that I've been trying to apply external thoughts/concepts on sidechain compression which I guess is very crucial in/at house genres. In other words I have tried sidechain compression but couldn't even touch that kick light/delight pumping as present on on your track.

Very cool one track otherwise!

Sorry for a comment in negative regarding to my efforts. I truly enjoyed listening!

Best to you, Alex

How right you are about the timing for a re-release...its was good before...its even better now and a fitting soundtrack for the state of our temporary little planet...great stuff Steve...Ed

Hey Cruse i'm a fan of house music and you did your thing with this track with all the comments up here it not much that i can say that everyone else hasn't said so therefore hats off to you homie 5 stars on this one

Loved it. It gets to the point. I dig the dark parts. I guess I'm a junkie for dark music. Peace PDmuzak

Not bad. Sounds very good.

Regarding Putin. He is not the bad guy. The West support's a Neo-Nazi coup D'état in Ukraine and call it democracy and the media lie about it. They also said Saddam had WMD even though it was not true.

The truth is starting to come out:

Love that break around 1:20... Nice piano melody, other parts are cool too.

Very interesting concept on a high musical level...congrats!

Cheers____orlando

enjoyable! I would have liked it even more if there had been more of what you have from 1:00 to 1:15

The break at about 1:20 was fantastic and very unexpected considering the beginning was so upbeat. But it really works to get the feeling from the description.

I love that as musicians, we can represent our sentiments, thoughts and feelings through the music we write. You used a lot of loops very creatively to convey your intentions here. What can I say that others haven't said, great track Steve!

Wayne

Hi Steve,

Apologies for not commenting sooner ( I thought I had!) this was a track I played on my first ever loopradio show back in February, and rightly so. I love everything about this track, the way you set the scene, the subtle changes..but above all its a banging very well produced track. Thanks for letting me play it Steve.

Very best wishes,

Mark/Larry!

Pretty heavy track here Steve.
Really varied and full of power.
Almost a Stars on 45 version of Armegeddon.
Awesome mix bro.

Yeah good Job!,
War is the scourge of Mankind,long as there is enough Money to earn with, the innocence will die.

Peace Bro*

Check out also this guy please. You can hear he is from Germany. German quality.

When a German guy put his reputation on the line, then you can be sure, that this is correct https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qUcgg2vMX_s

For the club floor it will sound better, if it is not over-compressed. The over-compression sound make the music sound weak. The only thing that over-compression does is to make the music sound louder.

There is big illusion going on. Check this out please: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Gmex_4hreQ

Hey mate

Mate is one very groovy housey number, excellent for the dance floor, wow impressed, excellent clarity and the arrangement very good, love the drops and builds, nice vocal touch too, mate will be back to check out more of your tunes after hearing this one...Massive fav this one...Thank you for sharing man...Peace n much Respect to you...Mosaic...PS can understand why it has so many downloads...Credit to you...

Very good house track indeed. I can sense you know what you are doing.

I have one suggestion for you. Research Dynamic range. http://turnmeup.org/

This is an odd track. Rally not sure how that piano would go down on a dancefloor.

he banging bits are obviously just that. Maybe that quiet piano would confuse dancers. What do you think? I agree that it could probably be a bit louder. I do like it, though.

More of your favourite type of cymbals. The kind you don't get on a drum kit.

1:37 I like that transition (though not the reverse cymbal) and the heavenly stuff and the machine gun stuff)

Beat return on 2:07 is cool and with that spoken word in there.

2:12-2:15 build is a bit like the Chem Bros.

2:15 and the dancers can get dancing again.

3:30 I like the new synth part. Reminds me of some old Daft Punk track I think. Not sure which one. Maybe Around The World?

Last 50 secs definitely something to confuse the dancers in the club. Native American drums and chanting? And choirs...

:)
this nice piece with those superB stop & then those memorable gun sound , and that marvelous modulation in the end has even got better with these new changes and added sounds (this ending chorus too was new as I remember , ja ? )...
what a fast time passes ..look at my first commenT..
here I am ..on the road again...there i'll go upon the stage..hahah...wink my friend.___B

Man the piano is amazing, ill just say that it needs a couple DB up.

Cheers brother.

Wonderful song Steve.
The soft piano is a very clever touch: it builds the necessary contrast. Liked a lot.
You never disappoint me :-)
Ciao, Domenico

This is pretty twisted mate. Like the percussion and that lead synth is fat.
What i like about your tracks is your always changing what goes on in a rather unique way. The way it drops into the gunfire bit is excellent and then back to that manic pitch bend bass.
It never gets boring, There's a theme throughout but the vibe just keeps changing.
Good work here mate.

Bonjour Steve ....

A bold blend who has you had to a lot of time .... because it is not always easy to find appropriate "loops", is not it?
A large work of DJ here .... which leaves me no doubt about your talent and your musical logic.
The day will still disastrous with the time, yet today ....

it's a good and very suprising track ...
relaxing and nice melody .
the break after 1.20 is very suprising .
you use a lot of instruments
and different kinds of music .

good job , mate !!
greetzzzz

Wow wicked, wicked track Steve. Really nice stuff. I'm stompin man!!

seems like that was quite an undertaking and you did a very fine job.
intriguing what and how you have put this whole tune together, respect!

an incredible looply feast - a warning, a riot, more war - and a soundpainting from a better and more humane and human place of composure - deconstructed composure, sure, but that's the operative word here. dark dark brightly lit visions and arrangements so killing as to be saviours. bravura

Quite cool! Great use of loops! Very good mixing you've done here! Has me bouncin in my chair! Beautiful man beautiful!

You`ve got a lot of good musical company here crucethus...and some really catchy melody bits that raise this one up to a high level....very nicely done....Ed
