Listen To Land Of Nod Chill Out Song By EazyBeatz At Looperman.com

Greetings again, Mr Beatz.

Nice to know you value my input.

"Sometimes feel like as if I had a team things would turn out much better"

I totally agree and partly feel the same way. It's quite a challenge doing everything yourself: playing, recording, sequencing, audio editing, synth manipulating, mixing, mastering and so on. Someone live Spivkurl even builds his own physical instruments. Certainly not something I'm ever likely to do.

So, I'm forced to criticise what I do almost all the time. The main time I'm not is when I'm able to either just sit back and enjoy playing or listening back to compositions. But I can and will criticise at any random point as I try to notice anything that can be improved. And then I try to make that happen and often do.

I just try to bring a bit of that constant search for improvement to my Looperman reviews. Criticism can be a great thing and is kind of the definition of learning and working out why something does or doesn't work. A bit like a basic school essay exploring a subject or math problem in which you show your working.

"Just wish someone such as yourself were around as work on my compositions"

Thanks very much. I'm still looking (but not very hard) for that person or people. Hopefully one day...

Good luck with this track as I still feel it can be better though I don't know if you're planning on making any changes. I generally do to tracks I upload to the site. Not always based on others' views - sometimes I just notice problems when listening back to it outside the studio environment.

Not a chill out fan, but the track name brought me here. Great oddity in the story. Cain kills Abel, and is cast out of the Garden of Eden, and goes to the land of Nod and joins the peoples there. With four people in existence, Nod should be pretty vacant. The work-around for this that I've had fed to me was that they didn't count females at that time, so Adam and Eve had several daughters that they also cast out,... but Nod can't be all women. Did Cain or Abel impregnate then on their way out?

Anyway, I dig the sounds you have going on. It's a bit too sparse in the beginning, but I heard absolutely nothing objectionable. Calming and soothing.

Really cool track man! I love how every element of the song seems to swell in and out of focus!

Yo man, this track is sweet! Do you mind if I use this for one of my videos on YouTube?

Cool track nice bounce once it gets going, the keyboard takes
the place of a guitar but it works...
Could use a touch more top end on it, but it works...

Nice project...

Peace...TG.

Hi.

On 1:11 it starts to get really cool. That chopped up vocal is awesome and I'm really feeling the reggae vibe. Everything has come together really well.

Long, slow notes before then are good though I feel the drum work could be better in the first minute. Hard to pinpoint how as you're doing a lot of stuff so I'm finding it hard to give specific suggestions on improvement.

0:28 to 1:11 is the problem section.

I'm actually thinking you might perhaps just start with those long, slow attack notes and then kick straight into the 1:11 section. That would be instantly appealing. Everything after 1:11 is also cool, with a fine flow, and you work your elements nicely. Very cool chillout vibe but with fat beats too - just the kind of thing I'm into and sometimes make myself.

2:52 reverse fill is good and creative.

I hope those thoughts are helpful and received for what they are - constructive criticism on good work.

Oh and it's also a good, appropriate title.

Take care.

Nice chill vibe you have here. Laid back with a full bottom end. The vocals accentuate the chillness of the track as well. Nice work as always!
