Description : Vocals: Carrol https://www.looperman.com/users/profile/423992
Drums: Ekkotheamatuer,loonyggon1, djphosho - thanks for the drumloops and the a capella guys. The rest is mine, created in FL.

I'm very proud of the bassline in this song - it's my first proper one. Lol.
Other than that it's only a very rough beginning and hopefully a work in progress. If it doesn't end up in the bin.

How did I miss this one? I like it. It's kind of weird - in a good way, of course (weird is always good ;) ). It makes me think of Massive Attack in their trip hop phase.

Like the atmosphere on this track, does sound like a smoking track, professional sounding as well, great work

For someone who doesn't smoke, this one sounds like you were smoking. Completely trippy. The bassline is pretty proper sounding too. Great work SJ. I deleted my other track so I'm returning the care face. ;) There, that's all you get. I did that one before too. You have now depleted your careface usage from member Gramo Chopin. Please don't complain in the response after the peace. Downloading and faved, peace (lol)

Digging the way you sliced up those vocals. I'm only listening on my crappy lap top speakers but this mix sounds like it has a lot going on in it. There's some nice synths and atmospheres layered over the pumping bass sound, which is all complimented niceley with big reverbs and vocal slices.
I like the way the piano builds towards the later part of the track and that synth is cool as well. Sounds a little like a cop siren or sumting.
You've done a good job with this one.

A well made genre mix. Like the very cool effected vocals and the encasing music of this tune. Really well made!

Dont put it in the bin SJ...I can hear a lot of good work (and talent) that went into this one..Good for you on that bassline..that drop at 2:45 really works well and the drums are subtle enough to let the bass do its thing...the big reverb on Carrol`s vocal works well in this one too...The whole mix has a nice big rich sound...Its really well done...the only thing that I could think of as I was listening was that a couple of little key changes somewhere along the way might kick it up another notch....enjoyed this one...keep on.....Ed

Hi again, Ed!
About that bass - I didn't even consciously notice the bass in songs before and didn't understand what all the fuss was about...you guys here talking about great basslines etc. etc.
And then I suddenly started to hear it too. (It's OK to laugh, it's both hilarious and embarrassing... =D)
So this is kind of a big musical revelation for me: The bass is what brings the music alive somehow...well, I haven't quite figured it out yet but I'm getting there.

In this case however, it's a very simple and amatourish bassline of course, I'm aware of that. Just celebrating my new knowledge by building a song around that bass which just happened to popp out in an other song where it didn't belong, that's all.

Key changes are a good idea, it's very flat and veeeeeery long, this song.
So some key changes and also just half a song could be my next move here.
Thanks for listening and for the advice!

Take care! /SJ

One acapella by Elven Voice, one loop by GenaMusic... So separate but something common...I decided to merge them and to leave them as clean as I could. Just added some synth pads and percussion.
