"I feel like I won something"

You did but it's only the very small and unspectacular prize of a few lines of thoughts from me*. However, you are free to keep that prize and cherish it forever. Perhaps have it printed out, framed and hung on the wall.

Anyway, thanks for letting me know about that cool guitar loop. I should have guessed it was guitar though it does also have an unusual sound, which is probably the sidechaining effect. You've used it very well.

1:07 vocal rise is very cool. Such a pure and beautiful note.

1:24-1:30 some audio pop problems as you cut the samples off. You can make a more professional job of this by smoothing out those slightly awkward and untidy edits.

1:38 nice change again. Good move to the ride cymbal.

2:05 I don't think you should go back to that section as you've done as it's pretty much exactly the same thing as before at 0:47. Still good but I'd like to either not have it there at all or have it there but with more variation eg another part added on top.

Actually, that's my only real criticism of the track - that there's a bit too much repetition of the same parts in the same way as heard earlier. They're all good parts/sections but that's just my particular "hard to please" criticism. Hey, there's always room for improvement, even when you come up with a fine creation such as this.

Is the piano the one thing you're playing on here?

Congrats again.

Ha ha thanks for these few precious lines! I'm happy with my prize and will maybe print it out and frame it. But just maybe.
Audio pops and repetition noted.
About the piano, no this is entirely made out of loops. I just twisted the piano sample from the beginning and happend to make it sound, as Steve put it, in "my" style.

Thanks again and sorry for late replay, I've been busy trying to write a novel (or a very very very long text?).
Cheers!

Wow, hearing some of my stuff back is nice but this is just sick! The riff is made with an electric gitar sample. Funny thing is that the dog on my avatar is the one who made it as it is by jumping on my stuff like a monkey. Many thanks for sharing this!

What - the dog made it?!
How did I miss this comment?
It's an epic loop made by an epic dog. I love that dog - give him/her a hug from me.

This is seriously nice. Easy to get lost into listening too. It's eclectic and changing. Love that you chose silence at 1:23. Percussion syncopation is nice at the end as well. well done song and good interpretation of the diverse loops.
Steve. (And I see you snuck in your piano style at the end as well)..

Hello.

This is a rather cool piece of music, with some obviously skilful arranging of these various loops.

Up to 0:47 is kind of like its own track and then there's a weird, glitchy bass section and then 0:57 that is one killer riff! Which instrument is that? So damn funky, and with some real menace.

1:16 drum fills are great and make me think of 80s hip hop.

Damn, this is so enjoyable! I'm a little busy now so will return later to describe in more detail this loop masterpiece.

A definite favourite for me.

Hi Nomad!
Cool to see you here, I feel like I won something...
And yes yes yes, you got it - it's that killer riff!! That's the one that got me in the first place. And here it is, made by jeroentia:

Electric guitar, apparently.

Thanks, looking forward to hear the rest of the verdict if you find the time for it.

Cheers!

Danke so much, Danke!!
Those are brilliant loops, I really didn't have to work hard at all to make them sound good, they already do on their own.

Take care!

I think we both have good ears, yours might be a little better though. =D
Nice to hear you liked this, I really love those loops. They stand on their own, I didn't do that much, really.

Enjoyed this piece a lot. You have a great sense of structure, and how to vary the music to hold the ear, and where to work the breaks. Dug it.

Well S.J....you did a seriously good job of pulling this all together...like the first half best I think...has a bit of R&B flavour but I`m really impressed with how you brought so many elements into the kix and still made them all not only very coherent in it but also how they sit so clearly in quite a big mix...this is very cool...enjoyed it....well done...Ed

Hello Ed, long time no hear -haven't heard any of your songs in a while and I'm missing them a lot.
I hope all is well with you!

Thanks for listening! This one is all loops from here and some drums I found inside the FL Studio...even the woman singning lives in there. I hope she's not feeling lonely. No seriously, I think I ruined some of the loops, they are popping and clicking a lot, but I'm pretending they are supposed to be, it's actually a very important part of the song.
Ha ha!
Take care/ SJ =)
