Listen To Klokwerk House Song By LivingInSilence At Looperman.com

Nice one

Nice one! I think everyone mentioned what is good about it so nothing to tell... For me this is a nice house and electronica fusion! Keep up like this! Cheers!

Yo again.

Indeed I did miss your wonderful conversation about snow tubing, whatever that is. Send me a link or reproduce it here if you think I’d like it.

When I said "computer game shit", I didn’t mean it was actually shit, more like just “stuff”. I’m sure you didn’t think I meant it was shit. I also doubt your last EP was shit but I haven’t heard it. So it could be. Maybe you should go back and polish that turd.

“bassline took longer to compose than anything else”

Yes, I can hear lots of careful work going on with that.

My work is largely about groove so getting bass and drums tight can take a while. And getting them really good allows me to play other instruments much better off them. If the groove is cool, it inspires much better playing whereas if things are too messy, the guitar playing, for instance, can seem to clash with the bass and drums foundation.

“I needed to make sure it didn't get boring no matter how many times it was played”

That’s always my aim. This track has lots of energy and isn’t too long. I could have done with some new stuff in the second half but I wouldn’t say it gets boring, just that I didn’t have much to pick out to comment on.

Yes, raise the level of the “time is a” part so that we can actually hear the line. Right now all I can hear is the bitch.

“your probs my best source of constructive criticism”

No problem. I pretty much do the same for everyone one I review on here. If I like something, I see it as my duty to explain why rather than just single or double sentence “nice track bro”-ing. Way too much of that round here. If something’s good, I think of the amount of time and care someone has spent on it and try to recognise that and point out the good details, as well as the bad/could be better.

I always tend to think that it’s pretty irrelevant if some anonymous person on the internet just says they like your track whereas that same anonymous person giving such actual detail about different sections can be quite valuable. And when you know a commenter’s music, it can be quite interesting to see what they liked or didn’t like.

Congrats again on your evolving sound.

Hey, friend, I'm digging this track thoroughly! I find myself intrigued by the mechanical sampling you've done here. Can't say I've heard much of that going on in tracks, especially in recent years. Sounds pretty cool to me. Do you care to explain how you are recording these objects you put together? I'm listening in headphones, so keep that in mind... It seems like the bass is a bit in the background in the heavier parts of the tracks, though maybe it's totally intentional. I liked the vocal bits very much, and I'm thinking they could be a bit more prominent as well. Overall I really enjoyed the song, in fact it's probably one of my faves as far as house tunes go. You have your own style, and I respect that!

excellent stuff. really great and loud sounding mechanical experimental simple dance music. I will take some time to read the forum post again but anyway this is a great track. I do not believe that there's some teory needed to create music like this but I must say I love the sound-image of the track. Congrats, Alex

Xmas word up, He Who Lives In Silence.

This is one cool track.

Skittery computer game shit to kick things and then a fat, fat, compelling beat.

"building little mechanisms"

I feel I can hear lots of little klokwerky things going on all the time as additional percussion.

1:16 that's a killer little bassline slowly fading in and getting stronger.

1:33 "bitch" vocal? Cool little drop there and then you give that bassline the fat beat it was crying out for. Great, busy fun now that people will enjoy on dancefloors in many places.

Another klokwerky breakdown at 3:04 and then some background strings entering. Then that killer bass returning over the moving machinery.

The rest is similar to what's already come before but it's all good stuff.

No particular suggestions from me as you have your own style, which is evolving and progressing nicely.

Congrats on your distinctive musical/personal character as I do often enjoy your posts and comments on this site. "Just sprinkled some pubes on it" is still the best!

Like those sounds. It took me the whole song to realize that the voice was saying "clockwork" instead of "awkward". Sounds like Hans Zimmer joined Ratatat and then they went to Ibiza! Very Nice.

Niceee. I've come to the conclusion your music sounds like a circuitry board in musical formation. If that makes any sense. Really liked the sounds in this one. Technical. Great work, happy holidays. peace

Gramo/Neo

You gotta love them engineers!

hey andy really liked this track! loving your new house style but liked that you kept your whole "grunge" feel. Just make sure you don't take the track snow tubing. xD

Best Wishes,
