Listen To Minus - Ohgr Cover Industrial Song By Spivkurl At Looperman.com

Hey man, thanks for checking this one out! Definitely one of my best cover tracks. Skinny Puppy is definitely worth giving time to. Alas, this will be the second year in a row that I will miss their Minneapolis show. Last year they stopped plowing the highway, and this year we are just too broke to risk it. I really dig Ohgr's solo stuff though, every album has been excellent. I find that this version resembles some of the live versions of this song. For a synth based rhythm guitar section, I think this turned out pretty good... I'm proud that it wasn't just a guitar rompler. Thanks much for leaving your words!

Thank you my friend for another kind comment! Ogre(Ohgr) is definitely one of my favorite artists of all time, and his work in Skinny Puppy is amazing. True that it's not your usual listening preference, but I appreciate the time you took to listen and comment. This is definitely one of his more pop songs, which is probably why it suggests rock to you. The guitar sounding parts are all synth though, and it's under industrial as I figured that people looking for industrial music would appreciate this one more than most. I've been trying to find my voice again after a break from that sort of thing, and also after smoking too much... I'll get it back. Thanks again!

Hey there! Thanks for the returned reviews, means a lot to me! It's funny what you wrote about it being the Spivkurl we know and love, being that it's a cover, but I get it. I got in the habit of using other people's art to express myself with the whole loopradio thingy, and this seemed like the proper progression after it all hit the fan. Interesting that these sound like guitars to people, since they're not, I guess I got the tone right. You should totally check out ohgr if you haven't already, his albums are like some of the best I've ever heard! I'm interested to hear the industrial you create! Take care!

Hey friend! You're too kind! It's about time I gave a nod to ohgr in all his glory. This song totally spoke my emotions while I was recording it, I couldn't have said it better my self. I heart electronic music! Thanks for listening, so much!

Hey, it's really nice to hear from you on this track! The comparison to Mark M is one that surprises me, but in a good way! He has made a huge mark on electronic music, and on my soul, so it means a lot to me! It's rare that I would do a song in this short of a time span, and if it weren't a cover I don't think it would've gone down like that. It felt good to express what I was feeling using someone else's ideas, sort of like DJ'ing in a way. Thanks for the support and feedback!

Hey BB, thanks for stopping by to listen! It was one of those things that had to be done, and it was very cathartic. I'm just happy some people enjoyed it, and I'm hoping I got some people into Oghr. Hope all is well! Thanks again!

Thanks my friend for your kind thoughts! I just today realized that the falacy of time has been on my mind for far longer than when I was DJ'ing to other time zones. I'm happy to have a common vein of thought in recent works, even though this is a cover. I just haven't adjusted to modern changes in reality I guess, glad I'm not the only one! See you in a moment!

Don't worry at all, I just feel better when I give credit to those I imitate. It's really never a song I thought I'd emulate, just felt right. Thank you for your attention!

Hello, my friend! In the case of this cover, I was using one of my idol's works of art to express myself, sort of like my DJ gig that ended all too soon. I wish you could hear the original, makes me sad how sheltered you are doomed to be. I should be thankful for the opportunity to introduce you to the song I guess. Thank you for listening and commenting!

Hey friend, really good to hear from you again! Doing this cover was just meant to be, I guess to me the essence of being a DJ is using other people's art to speak your mind. That's a bit how I think about doing covers too, be prepared for more covers under the guise of Iris-T-Shirt soon. I've been getting really into over=processing some of my tracks, in lieu of using autotune on my vocals, so I guess that's why the synths sound strange. They sound pretty weird in the original too though. Thanks so much for the comment!

Thanks for the compliment and the listen! Your words make me happy!

I appreciate your helpful feedback! You can always be counted on to listen to my new stuff, it doesn't go unnoticed! Trying to get away from using autotune, so I thought a cover would be a good way to train myself a little. Thanks much!

Thanks again Shatner! It was pretty spontaneous, so it feels good to get a positive reaction. You're very kind to review so many tracks lately!

Hey Vance, thank you for your comment and support! Was trying to make a faithful cover of one of my favourite artists, and it was a challenge considering I just had the chords and bass tab to work with. I appreciate you stopping by!

Thanks for the positive feedback! I wish I could take more credit, but I didn't write it or anything. I'm glad you can hear my nuttiness! I really appreciate you listening!

Thanks for your kind feedback! I didn't really practice much for the vocals, just wanted to express my feelings using someone else's song. The "guitar" is actually a sound I made with FM8 and then played the parts on my new midi controller. It does sound quite a bit like a guitar though. Thanks for the support!

Hey, thanks ShemZee for your support! I didn't expect you to find this one so quickly! Listening to your recent covers was definitely a big influence yesterday. This is by far the newest song I've ever done a cover of, but it doesn't seem that new anymore. Thanks for the listen, comment and DL!

Thank you very much for being the first to review this song. It was a very spontaneous project, and I didn't put much time into it, so I'm happy to get any positive feedback! I appreciate it!
