Description : Here is my most recent musical endeavour. It is primarily vocal electronic, with heavy psychedelic trance and electro influences. It took quite some time to bring this to completion, but I think it turned out quite nice. Contains some unusual synthesis courtesy of my DIY modular, Korg DW-6000, Microkorg, and Casio HZ-600. Very effect heavy and throbbing. Please let me know what you think! Thank you for listening!
Description : This one came about after looping the female Mmmm vocal. Again this one was done a long time ago. Recorded in cubase

Description : "WORLD FUTURISM," a unique blend of global dance
and timeless sounds drawing from nature, traditional music, field recordings,
and the electronic savvy of modern centers like Chicago and London
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

Enjoy!!!
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.
i dig the vocals in this track nice
I got the change to hear this one on SC and I really enjoyed it there as here too. I thought you put some really cool ideas into this one. Vocally you keep surprising with the way you go about it. Thought it really adds great to the atmosphere of instruments. Your lyrics really stick in the head and mostly you've achieved this. Great psy work man I appreciate this. Thanks for sharing it, Keep going!! Peace.
Love it well enjoyed, keep it up

I'm elderly and a total noob to EDM but this one really resonates. Excellent work -- keep 'em coming!
Spiv I love the energy and the aggressive nature here!
I couldn't help but ditch the headphones and crank the volume on this baby! I don't go full tilt on many track samplings, but when I do, its on.
Yeah you really packed some awesome "electro-synth-esis" into this. And I especially love how you drive it home there around 4:45.
Your a 100% total electronic renaissance man.
I'm definitely plugged in.
Brilliant. I'd swear you from Sheffield.

Your really capturing an era nicely without I think realizing that. It's almost like your re-inventing the sound again. Great work a fav.

Hey Spiv, this is super cool!
The synth sound that comes in occasionally (in stereo?) made me believe that I accidently had some other song coming through in the background and I tried to locate it for a while, with no success.=D
Unique and very you all together.
There are some frequensis in there that hurt the ear a bit but it also adds to the feeling of the song, hearing and sensing at once.
Cheers/ SJ =)
That was the fastest 6 minute track ever.
The biggest compliment I can give this track is it is all Spivkurl. I might be wrong but IMO, Spiv is one of those artists where there might not be a middle ground. He puts his stamp on everything from his distinct vocal style with his thought provoking lyrics to his true musicianship in the way he arranges his compositions. And of course, the true analogue instrumentation is brilliant. I'm a big fan!
Thanks for this Pat. Really enjoyed it :)
RW
sounds super good
I think its all been said Spiv....and by people much better informed to comment than this ol boy....you seem to have gained the uniqueness that many artists would strive for...and its the kind of thing that demands attention from those who absorb the intricicies of what you do...Its really interesting listening....a tip o the hat to you....Ed
I like listening to your stuff spiv cuz its very different and unique. Like some of the previous comments said it sounds retro but I say more modernish retro. Really unique.
The synths and sounds you got going are well played out and catchy but the glitchy synth that comes and goes at around the 1:09, 2:34, etc sounds out of place. But other than that you did an awesome job making all the synths work with each other in all ranges. It definitely sounds complete and the synth play/solo at the 3:01 mixes things up and keeps things interesting which is necessary for long tracks. You also got some cool transition synths going on but I didnt catch it until the 3rd or 4rth time of listening because it gets caught up behind the other synths (Yes this track has an usual addiction).
The vocals are not that unusual. It really fits the lyrics which are quite interesting and uncertain yet somehow hopeful if that makes any sense haha Its what I got out of it. The "we are the future" vocals at 1:46 feels like it comes too soon. Maybe having it come in a sec or so later can solve that but then again that may be just me since no one said anything about it.
Anyway Spiv I gotta hand it to you cuz overall this track is really really good, honestly listened to this countless times. Excuse my extra long review and critque but I just feel like if some areas in the track are improved it will be one of the most exceptional tracks on here because of your very unique style.
Props
Don't know how I missed this one!
Clubbing and Factory records come to mind Manchester England 1979.
Bands like Joy Division, New Order, Slaughter and the Dogs Iggy Pop and something that feels like Van Der Graff Generator in there.
Thoroughly enjoyed.
Took me to the Hacienda club Manchester ... all music drugs and guns ... very tense very high.
All in the past.
not much a fan of this genre..but you have delivered what you said in the description
unusual vocals which actually work here..
the synths and arps are catchy good
good work
TJ
Very different haha but i like it, those synths are very catching.
Nice one man. The synths are pretty crazy. Not liking this as much as some of you're other productions but still a innovative addition. Has a retro but futuristic sound to it at the same time. Almost a bit similar to some of Renz work lately with his retro type of endeavors. But this is still you're own work so I am in no way taking any credit away from the Spivkurl himself! You're an OG of the loop now man. lol Keep it going
Gramo/Neo
if you are yellus just tell me. i didn't say anything or didn't do anything to you so why?
Very unusual piece and nicely done. Good job!
Cheers,
Scott
This is just awesome, Spiv! Inventive and energetic as always,
and yes, there is a bit of Bowie in the vocals...great! In the 'fav' it goes!:)
Compliments______Orlando
Very nice and energetic!I love it!
Nice i do love some Psy ;)
It does sound influenced by it but different in it's own way, very original.
I like the sounds you used through the track.
As for the vocals although very interesting and i honestly like them specially the lyrics, in my humble opinion don't fit this particular kind of music, personally i would prefer the sound without it but that's just my opinion, having said that hats off to you for getting out of the norm to bring us something different and unexpected.
Those synths you bring around 3:02 are amazing, very cool indeed and that Goa Trance type lead at 3:40 and again towards the end is really good.
Overall is a tricky track with lots of interesting stuff going on.
Well done
BestRegards
WB
This is awesome mate!! Track has energy. Good work!!
WOW
Mate this is amazing, very dancy piece, love the vocals, this very different for you my friend, totally loving this one, sounds like a galloping bass line?, under laying the piece, love it what ever it is, your vocals in this really do sound very much David Bowie sound, great synths, think I have just found my all time fav piece of yours my friend, brilliant vibe coming from this one, big statement as you know I really enjoy all your works but this one is a very special piece...Yep ALL TIME fav track mate...Mosaic...Rarely download mate but would download if available...Mos...
Hey Pat...shades of Metropolis,Fritz Lang's not Superman's!...The trouble is many people would categorize this in the alternative pigeon hole whereas it sounds totally normal to me,being a big Faust fan since the early 70's I dig it,dripping with trans generational 'tude' and a thin veneer of angst but delivered with a stylish laissez-faire attitude amounts to very cool in my book....I like that busy termite action synth grooves,it bubbles along nicely without boiling over and putting the stove out...if you performed this with a suitable stage show you'd be a star in certain quarters....Back in the day the music was enough but now the artist has to be portrayed for visual shock value in conjunction with the music......original music rules in my book,I've lost my elephant stamp but for what it's worth you get my vote man!.....your the full package ....musician,singer,songwriter,lyricist,composer,arranger,instrument maker and producer!..phew,did I leave anything out..awesome! cheers Dave
This is sound in a way i like it.
Dynamic and powerfull and also a little bit agressive and hypnotic and on some places near to the border to -stop it, i cant handle it anymore- i love that a lot. Nice speed and extreme cool synth sounds around. I love this nerve, hypnotic one that goes close to mind blowing.
Vocals fits good and i enjoyed the lyrics as well.
In a way it has a kind of the 80s feeling to me and thats always something cool
geiles teil!
stay tuned
joe
hey. yes, it was very heavy-sounding to me at very first listening. I love the powerful synth drum sound in here but still 'there's a limit in my (our) mind'.
'there's no amoooouuunt to my miiiiiiind' (lyrics by Oceanically) anyway.
It is so different from my vision. I want more of an empty free space!
Beside all that (which is a true looperman illusion) I enjoyed your creation!
