Listen To The Sting Rock Song By DESTERO At Looperman.com

Very melancholy vibe with this song. The singing and guitar work are quite impressive and the sound/mix is solid.

Beautifully constructed song. The vocal lines and the guitar work are particularly good and work so well together. Love that string pad in the background too - very atmospheric. Great track. Love it. Lovely solo too. Super stuff.

I was struck by the beautiful dovetail of voice to electric guitar solo. it was amazing. gave me a chill. a beautiful song my friend. beautiful atmosphere you achieve. super guitar playing. thoroughly enjoying! regards. Dan

I love the combination of those chillout guitars with the vocals on top ;)
These vocals sound amazing on it

Even though it is all loops, the whole track itself sounds very nice. Thanks for sharing it ;)

Hey DESTERO,
Really liking this song, well mixed.
I love the vocals as well, gives the whole mix a really chilled out feel.
Keep up the good work man,
All the best and stay well,
George

This is a VERY impressive track! Everything sits nicely in the pocket. The guitar is quite beautiful, too!

Love & Light,

Mykael

Great just great! The beginning of it was just an emotional start to an amazing song. I love the atmospheric sounds you used within the track, adds character to it. The vocals just makes it complete. The percussion and drums is on target and the mix sounds great. All in all, you did a great job man! Hope to hear more from you in the early future, take care! :)

truly blown away,this is great in so many ways,when i saw it was rock i was expecting to hear a pop rock type of tune but this is a masterpiece you have here,i love the way the guitars come in sets the chill mood,really applaud your craftsmanship .

Wow! This is really good!
I am not sure how much "room for changes" you have on the vocal part: if possible, you should try to get it a bit cleaner (like proposed by Evan).
A possible approach would be to have the same vocal part on two tracks: one of them will stay "almost dry" and the other can get the effects you need (and you can also apply a subtle detune to this latter one).
Also, what I often do, instead of applying the delay to the whole vocal part, I cut the bits I want to get delayed and I put them on a separate track: so the delay effect is only on a special vocal track. This is all to keep the original vocals so "intelligible" as possible.

You did a wonderful job with the guitar sound: simply beautiful! Both clean and distorted sounds work incredibly well.

So, please let me join the others in faving this song: this is one of the greatest songs on looperman ever (top 10? maybe...I need to think about it, but top 50 for sure)

Looking forward to hearing your new songs, but be aware: you set the bar very high ;-)
Ciao, Domenico

DRO, How are you?

This is a great song. I was surprised to find out it was loops. I thought for sure you were using live instruments. Your ability to arrange them, and then mix/master them is top quality.
This song is a good mellow listen. It kind of just grabs you by the hand and pulls you in. There's really nothing off-putting about it. I'm not sure who you have on vocals, but she kind has a Martha Davis quality to her voice. That's a good thing in my opinion. The ending is a good ending. It doesn't abruptly end, and it doesn't drag on. It's a gentle piece. Almost melancholic.

I don't fave many songs, but I will have to do so on this one. I liked it quite a bit.

Take care, Mister.

DRO,
Very nicely done. Great production, killer vocals, intelligent use of guitar effects and the list goes on. Fav'd.
Oh and BTW, easy to spot the influence David Gilmour had on your leads. Nice.
Mark.

Very nice Track man!

You've been putting together some really good tracks just lateley and this one is no exception. The intro reminded me a little of Metalica but that's where the comparison stopped. Lovely work with the vocals and the guitar soloing. It's very professionally done, blended together seemlessly. The strings are nice, the guitars are great and this is just asking to be downloaded and faved so i think i might just have to do that when the track plays out.
This is the best track i've heard today without a doubt.

Aha - all loops and synths. I couldn't tell.

Well, they all fit well together. I expected the guitar playing to be yours as I know you do play. Don't you?

It's also a pretty smooth mix and doesn't sound like cut up sample-based music. Much more like a live band. Are you programming the drums or is that also loops?

You also have a nice day...

I have something to say: this is really good.

Intro 40 seconds are a bit boring so I prefer the second intro from 0:40 and then the drums and vocals come in.

Good reverb on the vocals and I like the drum sound.

1:39 there's a vocal phrase I really like and then it's repeated a bit later.

Strings sit nicely in this one.

2:24 good start to the guitar solo, with chilled drums behind.

This is really very musical. Are you doing everything apart from the vocals? Who is singing? She has a great voice.

Good length to this track. You don't rush things but instead let the music breathe.

Congratulations.

Real great track here DESTERO. Trippy dark elements with the guitar, chill as well. Vocals fit in naturally, clear mix of the instruments too. Real haunting vibe this one has, could of been on any number of Silent Hill soundtracks. Very nice like that outro, peace

Gramo/Neo

This is amazing bro. Wish I could be more specific but it's just a great track. Vocals and production are on point.

Nice laid back rock track, cool feeling to it and I like the pace of it. Lead guitars sound great, cool effects and tone. Vocals are excellent. There is a melancholic, somber tone to the track which I like a lot. Creative ending as well.

Well done!

Wayne

Hey DRO
I love your elements...great tones and nice blend of arpegios and leads.
You're still mixing like a guitar player though
On my Equipment the vocals are still getting a little buried by the guitars....lol
You create such great guitar tones...I get it... I wanna hear them all but it's muddyin up the waters a bit when they layer up.
I love what you do man
I really do
Please don't take what I am sayin as anything more than an opinion.
Even if you don't tweak a single thing in this track it will still be in my Faves
I want you to be encouraged about your music production but unless you have serious issue with it I'll always tell you what I really think.
Peace my Friend

Good job Destero. Another well constructed rock song by you. I really enjoy your work and have a good idea what to expect when I listen to one of your tracks. You definitely have a certain production style in the way you put tracks together. Very cool.

Anyone putting out similar music on the loop should be jealous of your stuff! LOL

Enjoyed this track 4 sho
RW

Oh hell yes!!

Soft bed of tones you've created. Great guitar sound and seems rather polished. Lead guitar tone is heartbreakingly forlorn and plaintive. Love it.

Vocals are great. The delay's mix knob sounds cranked. A bit distracting. Some Ts and Ss sound a bit harsh when echoed. The feedback amount sounds good, I'd just like to hear the delayed signal to be a bit more "distant" or "corroded" compared to the initial dry vocal.

Overall, fuggin loved it. Everything I've heard from you has been spectacular. You are a new favorite of mine. It all tastes great!

Evan

Love the ending on this one. nice work.

Unbelievable song DRO!

Huhh...man, we really have to work together...:-)

Got no words...

Just hat's off

Danke
