Description : My collaboration with the masterful member Benham Zandi DeciBel. https://www.looperman.com/users/tracks/741971 I was in a dark place when I did these vocals, but I still don't know why I didn't release this sooner. In a very industrial mood lately, but still getting an outlet in other genres by making loops. Please give me an honest opinion of this song, You'll be glad to hear my soul is no longer "hidden locked tight". You can get the new Spivkurl album "Charting The Anomaly," which includes this track at the We Are... Records Capitalist Market found here: http://www.wearerecords.com/capitalistmarket.html

I wonder how the idea would sound if you redid the vocals without the auto tune. The parts without it that I was able to hear sounded much better in a clear state but the idea is still a catchy one. I have repeated this twice while I'm reviewing. The instrumentation of this idea sounds hectic (props) lost in the night type sound. I'm not sure what parts of this belong to who in the collaboration between those involved, Not that it's a big deal just curious. Overall, I liked how you worked with the selected theme, a universal question at that! Thanks for sharing and keep at it! Peace.

Hey, thanks for stopping by to listen and comment! I got that response a lot recently about redoing vocals without autotune, so as of like a monthe ago I've stopped using it altogether with good results. I won't be going back to change the songs with it, as it sort of represents where I was at the time. I really felt a connection with the artificial feel it gave my vocals, now I no longer feel that way. The instrumentation, as I remember was all written by Benham DeciBel, I worked with the mix/master and the vocals. I really appreciate your thorough review! Thanks!

Thought i'd drop in and say hello.
I have no idea where your soul is i'm afraid but what i do know is i like this hammering track. I always seem to prefer the ones you've put vocals to and i think this one might just be my favourite so far.
This reminds me a little of a band called godflesh (but better)
F****ng excellent spiv!

Thanks for visiting my friend! Was defintely a cathartic collab with Benham! I prefer the ones I do vocals for too, that's why I'm trying to move that direction again. Trying to train myself not to use autotune anymore. I'm glad it's a fave for you! Really appreciate the F-ing excellent and the comment!

The darkness that we all hold within us generally carries upon it's face the most beautiful sights you can imagine. Generally, no one is willing to look past the darkness and the pain to find the beauty. That's where being an artist comes into play. Whether it's music, painting, photography, or whatever medium. We have that ability to leash that hidden beauty, no matter how locked tight, and bring it to the surface for others to enjoy. While, I'm no advocate for personal struggles, I fully admire our nature as artists to bring back a piece of heaven from out of the depths of hell. So to speak.
I love the use of Massive in this. Especially how unapologetically the "Modern Talking" patch is just thrown in your face. Not many people can pull that one off.
There is a lot of distortion in this track. That, combined with the rapid synth movement and uneasiness in your vocals that the auto-tune provides, brings out a feeling of needing to lash out from a frustrated aggression, but a total reluctance to do so. In other words...keeping it locked tight.
As always, man. Awesome work.

Take care.
Aaron.

As always, your reviews enhance my day! I'm beginning to realize that darkness and light are just extremes, and thusly are basically the same thing. Both are needed, and both inspire. I honestly don't know what instruments were used in this, as Benham did all the real musical work. I just did some mixing, vocals, and mastering. You're probably right about the modern talking, I didn't really think of it until you said something. I generally don't use that sound in my songs, but it's effective here. I'm glad you pointed out the uneasiness from the autotune, as that's one of the main reason I had been using autotune so much. I felt it enhanced the artificial sheen on my vocals. Sort of the same reason I'm no longer anti-MP3. I don't think I'll be using autotune on my vocals much anymore, as people have encouraged me not to. If they can stand my dischord, why not give it to em. Thanks so much for listening and leaving your deep thoughts! Take care!

Hey dear friend

What's happen since I haven't been here lol ,wow so different mate, but so catchy and totally loving it, excellent vocals, credit to you man, think vocals suit and work great with the main works, to me this piece has a techno, DNB feel about it, wow so looking forward to your other works over next week or two if this one is anything to go by, even though love what you do anyway, so talented and very different sound then many here, first fav on my return...hope all is well with you and yours mate...PLR mosaic...

Heh, good to hear from you friend! Thanks for giving your valuable comments! I know for me a lot has changed in the past year or so, generally for the better. A lot of the darkness of this track is imparted by way of Benham's fiery DnB rhythms and stuff, I just sort of went with it. I'm glad you're back on the Loop!

DanGoldstein 13th Apr 2014 15:19 - 12 years ago

where is my soul! holy cow! wild active beat. lots of attention to detail here. a lot of work in this and sounds fantastic. real techno age chaos! i think there is room to "effect" the voice more (like you start to in the final part) - strange it out! great track! thoroughly enjoy.

Spivkurl replied 19th Apr 2014 - 12 years ago

Thanks my friend for giving this a listen! I won't be going back to change anything on this now, I'm very much in the moment when it comes to writing and mixing now, so once it's out there, I'm pretty much done with it. Was nice to work with Benham a little bit! Hope you are well!

BeatMaker4real 12th Apr 2014 23:35 - 12 years ago

I know nothing of this Genre, but I like it.I love the way you got this mixed.

Spivkurl replied 18th Apr 2014 - 12 years ago

Well, thank you very much for listening to a genre that is foreign to you! I'm glad you enjoyed the sound of the song. Your comment is appreciated!

That was rather interesting to listen too, I always like hearing tracks that are innovative but when I read spivkurl and behnam I expected that already haha. It is not something usual and as far as it goes I like it though I wouldn't want to listen to this every day haha
But big ups to you two for creating this ;)

Spivkurl replied 18th Apr 2014 - 12 years ago

You're right, this is not the "anytime snack" it's more of a cathartic piece of art, like splatter paint or grafitti. Thanks for giving it a try though, I appreciate the listen and feedback!

Percussion Intro is awesome. (Ironic singing where is my soul using auto-tune). Your vocal delivery with different echolations reminds me of another artist I know from Austin Texas..New Neon. Well Mixed and produced. I liked this one!
