    Hello there.

    The vocal in this really stands out to me.

    Vocaloid sounds like pretty cool software. I've just had a look at the relevant website.

    Far out, trippy, dreamy intro with that fluttering synth. Something a bit 70s prog rock about it but more modern and electro. Also kind of dirty cool, slightly vocally bassline.

    0:35 cool noise in that drum fill.

    Then into a very sparse and simple drum groove and those magical vocals. The panning stands out. Maybe it's a little odd or maybe it's just different. One voice in the left ear, another in the right but not panned as far to the right.

    Again: very distinctive vocals. I wonder if most Vocaloid stuff sounds like this. I'm sure I could make good use of such software so will have a think about getting it.

    You keep your instrument lineup pretty much the same throughout the track but they're good sounds. Maybe you could add some reverb to the drums to make things go a bit bigger in the second half?

    Congrats on an unusual track.

    Thanks for the kind words man,

    Making this song was for me an excersize about using vocals and vocoders.

    usually vocaloid songs really dont sound like this,
    also I made the normal vocaloid vocals first and over 2 of them I also used a Vocoder.

    usually vocaloid songs are the hyperactive chipmunk sounds that you usually hear in anime songs for example (not really but kinda) (for example https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZtdvIKgQ5As skip to 00:45 and listen for about 10 seconds or so))

    anyhoo again thanks for the kind words man, I appreciate!

    Cheers!

    Cool track...Still needs a little somum,somum to take out of
    that single dimension, never the less it has lots of potential...
    Maybe some other voices, on a different time groove not to far
    off the wall but harmonically tight...Got a good mix there...
    At this point it's something little that will bump it up...

    Peace...TG.

    Love this track. The flow is like a oceanwave. The synths are supporting your nice vocals in a great way. Congrs!

    Something really good going on here.
    Brings to my mind Laurie Anderson and Eno.
    I can't give any in depth technical advice other than listen to promenade2239.
    I wish you all the best with your album.

    hi again and thanks a lot for the reply! really good to hear the updates. I love what you did!

    also I checked the vocaloid and this is some cool software. I was using a lot of Ivona 'text to speech' synth but never ever expected that vocaloid singing thing sounded that good. you have used it very well, I really like the little counter-melody work at places.

    there are still some elements in the background (for instance: synth at 1:05) that in my opinion will require a little bit of work, maybe simply by adding straight chord progressions. to me all tracks of your song are actually playing very similar rhythm pattern... so it is a 'minimal approach' in a way and that's fine - I like your vision.

    as for a 'proper song' thought: I need to hear much more powerful instrumental section that might balance somehow the long repetitive vocal passages here. your tune sounds to me like it is not that enough 'structured' so far but of course it is just the way of how I picture the eventual further development of it... will you be reworking this again by chance? if so I can always try to help you by adding something to this project...

    Hey good to hear from you again!
    First of all of course thanks that u like it!

    I never really heard of ivona text to speach, but Maybe I will check it out later, sounds a bit interesting, since I love that kinda stuff to work with.
    this track was the first timime I actually used Vocaloid and a Vocoder Over the vocaloid, its a pretty awesome tool I noticed.

    I'm not sure what sound you mean at 1:05, I am guessing you mean 1:12 maybe?
    Anyhoo my Tracks are usually inspired by daft punk, and usually make repetitive tracks, this was not meant as a 'proper song' actually, but I can understand why you say that because of the small instrumental breaks I put it, I purely did that to fill up the song a bit with only instruments and no vocals.

    I wasn't planning on changing this song again, but if you want you can try to add stuff, I am kinda curious what kinda stuff you would do with it.
    the song is free to download as you know, the BPM is 160 and I use the measure 3/4 :D hope to hear from you again!

    Cheers!

    hi. I really like your vision but somehow I find the vocals not present and articulated enough. maybe it's only because I am listening on headphones now... I can't understand the words, can you post the lyrics sometime? I noticed many people on here do not even bother to do that. I think you might even consider introducing other layers on the second section of the track, it can help breaking the 'repetitivity'. repetitive music is powerful as well but I say that because your production sounds more like a proper 'song' to me.

    overall this is a very cool one. nice work!

    Hey,

    You have a good ear.
    To be honest, I listened back to the song and was deeply dissapointed with the vocals, it doesnt sound how I want them to sound, I am well aware of that and fixing what I can in a frew minutes after writing this.

    Usually I write lyrics on this site on my tracks, but had the feeling that most people didnt even notice I did, so I just skipped it this time, but I can write them no problem (though they usually dont make any sence, that is how I work :p)

    Also the reason you cant make out the words is, because I usually use VOCALOID to do the singing, which is a japanese instrument that produces japanese words, though this version usual english words, regardless the words are barely recognisable

    I hope to be able to fix the vocals to be more present indeed, thanks for the input.

Description : The tangled skein of life permeates all creation, binding the known to the unknown. This track, in its own subtle way, attempts to convey that.

Description : Just like the first EP "OGOU", this production focuses on organic elements with drum samples.It contains modern sounds such electronic down-tempo, future bass,and hip-hop, which makes the music sound old and new at the same time. With heavy sampling of African chants and sound generated from other tribes, this is production will bring more flavor and enjoyment--it's like Africa to your Ears.

Description : After a major uphill battle completing this song and turning it into what it is now, I feel some amount of satisfaction. It was like reality wanted me to give up or something. It's done... phew... Have updated this almost completely, from repatching the modular bass, playing some guitar parts, adding electric piano and synth lead, redoing and tuning the DW-6000 synth, of course adding my vocals, and mixing and mastering. It really has become pretty new wave, like much of my stuff does recently. Have added the lyrics as well. I am proud and happy with it, and I hope you all enjoy listening! UPDATE... woohoo just broke 1000 plays on this track here at looperman!
***original description***
Hey finally here with a new track! I'm not sure what to call this other than electronic, due to the high tempo. This is the first song finished using my interface which allows direct MIDI control of my modular synthesizer. The mid frequency bass part is all from that patch. There are tracks designed with my Zoom RT-123 drum machine, the microkorg, and the circuit bent KORG DW-6000. Other than that it is just a kick and snare drum sample, and a a quick vocal snippet. So I guess it's fairly minimal in that respect. Would like to hear the Looperman community's thoughts on this song! Thank you for listening

Description : This coming from the New Project called, "World Futurism."

it's a production inspired by various tribes like Africa,Asia, North America. And with some heavy bass and synth sound, we got something refreshing to the ears.

I know I have promised a lot you that I will finish it but never did. However, I am for real this time.

Description : This one has a lot of changes. Pretty unique. Lots of dubstep sounds, glitch and other sounds. I always enjoy listening back to it. Throw on some headphones, crank it up, and experience the awesomeness of this epic electronic composition.
