Listen To The 9th Planet Fusion Song By Planetjazzbass At Looperman.com

I wish I could put my finger on the exact sound part I am about to describe. But there is something about Australian guitar music that is just so distinct to that continent. Whether it be yourself, Dave, Or Icehouse, or INXS, or Pseudo Echo, or Crowded house or Midnight Oil, Or the Sherbs, or the Little River band, or many others . When you introduce the guitar in your works. You create a soundscape that is reflective of the vastness of Australia. There is a tinge of melancholy, with a dash of vastness of the desert and bushlands, a moment of beauty of the land and area you live on now. And a feeling of nature. I cannot explain why I feel that way when I hear Australian guitar, but being a science based logical guy, I'm sure there is an underlying reason for my assuagement of the Antipodal guitars!
carry on!

Hey Dave my dear friend it has truly been awhile. And I see that your creativity is still in abundance; Wow what a great track man! Love that sifi-ish opening giving the impression that there some sort of inanimate threat that awaits us (though your discription gives a more peaceful alternative).

Then you hook us with your musical prowess, all the elements come together flawlessly. I love at 3:o6 of the song where you run the bass & guitar riff in unison, really nice! As always a master track by a master musician, great work Dave!
I've read a few comments about you "peaking" your levels on this track, perhaps you did it intentionally as part of the feel of the tune itself?

D

Kind of cinematic.
Nice, but some sounds seem to peak a lot.

Great piece and I have to agree about the loudness. The levels need sorting. I know I know my wave forms are almost a block but I aint as talented as you so I've got a good excuse. It sits well with the description.
I'mn interested in space and creation and evolution and the whole science/religion/philosophy of reality ... struggling trying to understand quantum mechanics just now which is a truly mind altering substance in it's approach to reality. I'll give this a few listens whilst reading.
I came up with this recently ... I think it's my own as I don't remember seeing it hearing it or reading it but ....
The very first sentence in the Bible is very short but full of the whole of the creation of reality .... or I could of course just be slightly bonkers.
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
Beginning ... a reference to time.
Created ..... a reference to energy.
God .... a reference to spirit.
Heavens .... a reference to space.
Earth .... a refernce to matter.
Hey the tune was good and I'm downloading it!

Hey Man this is Filaofsoul. Im Back. I can feel that fret less Bass. Love the guitar work outstanding. Man you got a lot going on here and it mixes well. Even though it had to end Great Ending.Let me go and find that 10th Planet! Enjoyed! FIlaofsoul

Deep layered jam. Top notch Looperman material. I could rhyme over something like this. We should collab sometime Dave.

I like this track, as a guitarist I appreciate what you are doing here. Apparently there were some volume issues, but I don't think it is that serious. Well done!

so many emotions going through me, it's hard to explain. very captivating, thank you for creating and sharing this with all of us.

This is the kind of music I like to listen to much of the time but usually have difficulty finding....quality all the way Dave..the rich sounds wrap very nicely around the bass & flow with the arrangement...is that an alto sax I hear in there (I`m listening with my old Sony MDV600 cans that are great for4 checking highs but shitty on the low end understatement)...music for thinking musicians...always the best stuff over here at your place...Ed

Hello Dave!

Beautiful track...imaginary and chill...great guitar play, bit like our in Ed's (Tumbleweed) style...:-)

Groovy is super cool...some perc add is too...I was very glad to listen to your new soundscape...

Handshake, Danke

Wonderful track MrPJB!
Very tasteful and "groovy" bass lines.
Outstanding work on the guitar: bluesy and "flowing". Liked it.
Overall... good atmosphere and a very pleasant track.
Enjoyed.
Ciao, Domenico

Hey Dave! As Pluto was demoted from the planet status a few years ago I found it interesting how you were going to represent a new ninth planet. The intro was pretty cool, some spacey distortion set a mood right away. I thought I might hear more synths than real instruments but the guitars were a cool thought and well played. The synths didn't overpower the mix and added some neat textural elements. This is the kind of music I like to listen to when painting or doing odd jobs around the homestead.

Take care!

I think you fused everything together really well.
Great track. sorry I don't have any technical critique for you.
Definitely a keeper.

Interesting track. Love the guitar and bass. It has a very nice vibe and alot of space sounds that seems to take you on a journey. Cool Stuff!

Yo, PlanetJ.

This is some masterful stuff but I definitely have a problem with how loud it all is. It's kind of spoiling it for me as it's just too booming and all seems to stay at pretty much the same insistent level. I want the track to have more peaks and troughs, which would probably be visible on the waveform (which they're not cos it's so loud). Some sounds are possibly a bit distorted.

The insistent thing is partly from the overly repetitive drum part, especially that hat, which doesn't seem to vary at all. Maybe I introduce too much drum variety in some of my stuff but here I really do feel some would help. Even just a change off that hat to, say, a ride cymbal.

But the instrumentation's sounds are awesome right from the off.

0:55 your typical, warm, funky, distinctive bass g sound.

Lots of jazzy lead guitar. A bit bluesy too with some of those bends.

1:32 trancey synth arp floating about. And panning about.

Definitely some strange, skilful, spacey fat groove futuristic jazz right here so congrats to you and Zappo. Or at least his keyboards (maybe they play themselves).

hello Dave
A beautiful track from you but so very different from your others maybe because of all electronic additions. What can I say more - everything sounds just perfect to me. A perfect amount of electronic ambiences and space within an 'electric'!
Deep hypnotic drumming (especially on the intro part - till 0:55) is reminding me of some music by Steve Roach https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ogeY7iDDiYQ There is so much happening in the low frequency drum sound-spectrum of your track and you seem easily entering modern Rap/Trap territories here (also regarding to the drum 'patterns' you're using). Maybe it's because I recently tend to focus on what is happening inside the drum set too much lol or maybe there is some intentional stylistical sound-distortion going on in your mix, not sure. I really like your choise of drum sounds as well as placing of so many little fills throughout (undefined brushes(?) or shaker single thing at 2:40; also the snare lead-in pattern at 4:04).
I can feel almost a direct solar space vibration being projected to me at the very moment of listening. Great composition and guitar playing!
Alex

Superb track guys.Loud but Lush production and very soul searching moments.

Babies are being conceived all over this planet :)

Thank you for the download - Neal & Helena

This composition is sounding very cool! Your bass and guitar work flows so well in the context of the piece, and seems to tell a story. Very interesting synthesis throughout as well. As far as the subject matter goes; I am by nature a very skeptical and paranoid person. I see all these images provided by NASA recently, and they just look like digitally envisioned hope. I don't believe any of it, and I think of it as just one more distraction from the problems right here at home. I realize that it gives some people hope, but I prefer to find hope in correctly living. I think that your song has far more realism than the space programs offerings. I think you guys have performed very well here. I suppose I could add that the whole track sounded very loud to my ears, but it's not important. I enjoyed listening, and I thank you for the opportunity to expound. Great work!

Nice, very relaxing, wish I was out looking at the stars, lovely.

Nice Intro.....Dark beats, ;53 seconds to start to hear that Oort cloud jazzy sound and Kuiper belt guitar. dreamy dare I say Celestial. 2:40 is a small breakdown in the chord structure and nicely welcomed by greys on the planet Nibiru. Nice ambient effects from the planet of Eno! Keys sound like the asteroids gently caressing Gaia to create diaplectic glass like sounds. Well done!
enjoyed that ride!
