Description : First track using Superior Drummer, and a return back to the glorious bass guitar. We start off with acoustic pleasantries, and build to darker things. Frog guiro, darkish choir, legato strings, flute and a weebit of bit-crushed guitar make appearances. Let me know what you think of it. I'm open to thoughts, criticism and ideas.

But you can't be surprised as you know I'm rather into delay. With the setting I'm using here, it takes about two weeks to hear any repeated notes. So it's best suited to tracks at least a few weeks in length.
Excellent 'Nomad destruction' answer. One of your very finest lengthy bits of creative writing. Thoughts:
1) Shit To Death could be a track title.
2) The butler will accept the hand-job but probably won't go through with the offing.
3) That might work. Well, it would if I didn't have various delay plugins.
4) I probably don't actually smell of Guiness or honey mango so the carefully trained attack rats will probably just head for a Guiness factory. Or mango plantation.
5) I can't say how many scruffy white Alexes there are in the UK. I'm sure we get about so probably many more than 7. Bring lots of ammo as it's damn hard to get over here.
6) That's a cunning plan. I guess this means that if/when I do meet some fantastic, Nomad-completing female, I will always be suspicious that she's really just an Evanator agent. In your cruelty, you will always deny it if I ask. Sorry to hear something like that happened to you. But that's what you get if you date Tally Pruit so it's also kind of your own fault.
Back to the track:
1:40 has an odd, metallic, rubbing bass tone. Pretty cool.
2:11 sounds like a synth but I doubt it. Aha - maybe that's bitcrushed guitar.
2:42 good, huge reverbed bass tone.
This is sitting, grooving away nicely. Irish prog chill jig is the genre name.
3:13 nice legato strings to add some depth.
Watery fadeout ending is good. No complaints.
Still Intact Nomad, smiling and dropping the cliche
This is a killer track Evan, so the name is very appropriate. I love the Celtic flavoring you are able to produce. The acoustic intro is so Renaissance festival, I'm instantly picturing the ample bouncing breasted wenches and smelling the Turkey Legs and mead. But then this quickly melds into a shifting cacophony of suspenseful interlude which is quite masterfully composed. That sharply toned bass is so wicked along with the flute and (are those guitar?) plucks. Nice tension building here and then the addition of percussion and choir really pumps up the production value. The second half continues the bass driving groove with some segmented percussion to sustain the tension. I have to complement you on the drum work through out the track bro. It really put this on a much higher level percussion wise than I believe you have been before. My only critique with the track would be to point out there at 2:43 the guitar and bass are seemingly battling for space a bit, not sure if its volume or separation that's the issue, and its a very minor one to say the least. The orchestrated synth that kicks in to start the outtro is very cool and just puts the finishing touch on this amazing piece. Your really raising the bar with stuff like this Evan. Seriously.
I'm very happy you liked this one. Sorry for my late response. Ah, my track evokes titties and intoxicating beverages in the mind. These things are all good.
"...(are those guitar?) plucks."
Yes, high up on the neck of the acoustic I'm about to part with. I don't record much with my mic, but my crappy little acoustic Squier has been in several things.
"....there at 2:43 the guitar and bass are seemingly battling for space a bit...."
Here is where I call complete and total bullshit on you,.... because it's all bass. (I win!) The lead and the backing are both bass guitars, and I'll bet they're going through the same pickup configuration on both parts. Good ears. They don't get along because I usually roll the blend pot on my bass a touch for recording different parts to separate their tone. So yes, you are correct. They probably are fighting for space since they're the same instrument.
Thanks for the listen, and the feedback. I've got a new one now that is heavier and lighter. Using amp sims out the wazoo!
I will have you know that you will not have me destroyed. But it's interesting that you're so confident about it. For a start, I doubt you'll be able to find my secret lair. But if you were to manage it, how do you think you'd do it? Just destroying my good name in the media or actually obliterating my fantastic body? Would you toss me in a car crusher? Brush hog me till I disintegrate? Dynamite up the ass while I sleep?
Now let's get down to mothafuckin' business:
Intro is jaunty, acoustic Irish jigging stuff that maybe fades in a bit too much ie should start at a higher level.
0:15 and we're totally rocking with addition of fat bass and drums. This is good shit.
0:46 that little riff is too cool. It's actually pretty hard to tell what it is. I guess bass g. And the frog guiro is amusing and adds some unusual character.
Some lower bass g gets effectively added and now 1:09 comes the coolest addition, the "darkish choir". That's the kind of additional flavour you need to add to your music.
1:33 I see why ToastMan says Fantasia. Because it's some dreamy, far out soundtrack music. A bit like something Danny Elfman might come up with. You know - the composer who's done loads of scores for Tim Burton. And The Simpsons.
Drums sound great, as I suspected they would. Spivkurl recently said that he wished Superior didn't exist and that it "always sounds like phasing noisy junk". But let's not worry about that negative, weird and irrelevant opinion.
I knew your first track using Superior would have good drums because you've been putting in the practice these last few years with lesser software. Now you can do some nice "phasing noisy junk", your drum quality has gone up a notch. Or three. Actually, hearing this makes me wonder if I should get the Progressive EZX. I now know partly what it sounds like. Good reverb on the drums. It's just a fat sound.
Anyway, I'm running out of words so I'm going to run now and return when you reply to review the second half of this nice track bro.
Undestroyed Nomad, unable to focus on anything but your surrender.
1. Replace your fiber powder with laxative powder and watch you shit to death as you keep unknowingly taking laxatives to stop the shitting.
2. Offer your rowing butler a callous-free hand-job to finally off you the way he has always fantasized; with scissors, rocksalt and wearing Groucho glasses.
3. Take away his delay pedal.
4. Train a vicious horde of attack rats to sniff out the combination of Guinness and Honey Mango, leading them, of course, directly to you. Unable to defend against such a well trained, mighty and driven force, you will be slowly disassembled into tiny bits and redistributed all over the UK in what will appear to be tiny brown grains of rice.
5. Fly over there and shoot your ass. How many scruffy, white Alex's can there be. I've got a revolver, so my hope is less than 7.
6. Convince a beautiful, intelligent, sexy and loyal girl to make you fall in love with her. She will complete you, and you will feel that she truly wants you, and you share something that nobody else is worthy of..... then I'll send you video of her blowing thugs for meth.
---------------------------------------------
0:46 riff is acoustic guitar, way up on the neck, so it does sound odd, but thats what I liked about it.
"always sounds like phasing noisy junk"
He's a smart, great guy. A positive influence in the world, but this actually sums up what I think of his music, minus the phasing. A lot of detailed work for a product that seems to hate my ears. Other people love it, just not my thing. More power to him. I'm sure there are people who can't stand what I do.
"...this makes me wonder if I should get the Progressive EZX. I now know partly what it sounds like. Good reverb on the drums. It's just a fat sound."
A good amount of post-processing. A compressor, eq for some extra overheads, and a room reverb at half mix. Since you seem to have more expendable income, you should go for the Progressive Foundry SDX. It's about 66GB of samples. I've got 107GB of empty space, waiting for expansions. I've been thinking of EZMIX. Tutorials make it look pretty awesome, though everyone will have access to the same presets. Just have to finagle them into something special.
I hope Number 6 wasn't too depressing. It's pretty close to my last relationship before I met my wife. That was a shitty stretch of life. I wish it on no one.
Evan, gets just what he came for, then he's out the door again.
The bass must be in the face, yes. I'm one of the few people who believe the bass guitar is a lead instrument. It's just good stuff. Thanks for the listen and the kind words.
Never apologize. We all come and go as we please. Its always good to hear from you. Yes, the instrumentation is kind of big in this one. Not many quiet sections. I'm glad you liked it and I hope you're around when the next one rolls out. Thanks for the kind words!
This is pure, beautiful insanity! It's like Tool rescored Fantasia. The different motifs are so expertly blended that new images are conjured to the mind with ease. It's carnivalesque at first, then the ghostly choral comes in before the bass growls a low warning of the dangers ahead.
The tension holds as all begins to fade into the distance. We are left to wonder what horrific wonders we have just witnessed. Then silence.
That gets me right here, man. (taps chest)
I've gotten several Tool references over the years. I'm honored by the reference, but hope I never sound like I'm trying to sound like them. I'd like to think that I inject a bit of my sense of humor into my music, but I learned to play bass by learning Tool songs, so comparisons are going to happen I suppose.
I dig progressive music. I do repeat phrases a few times to establish it or to do a lead on top of it, but I really never revisit a movement like verse, chorus, verse, chorus. Shit drives me mad. Each song gives you a few minutes to showcase your mind, why keep repeating the same thing? Oh, right, catchy equals profitable.

==============
Inspired by a track of Pseudoble. I was noodling along to his track "I wish I didn't know" (which is awesome) and had the words "Snow in Athens" in my head. This with the smooth jazz/fusion atmosphere led me to this track with a sort of Steely Dan feel.
Description : This track is built around the repetitive lead guitar line which I have previously incorporated as an intro for the rocker track "Sweetheart Runner" by LM user TinyFinger whom I have helped in arranging, mixing and producing his song. This extended session was a good oportunity to test some new equipment....Thanks to Tiny for not being mad about it...:)^^
Description : I had to go in on this track. This is a future bass, electrofusion song. I posted the full version here full the Looperfam because you guys give me sooooo much support. I can never thank you all enough.
After a quite turbulent long travel we’ve reached a totally unknown planet which is mostly covered with clouds. As we pass over it we can see parts of rivers through the clouds that come out of the dark rocky surface in some places. So the whole scene is alternating textures of white, dark gray and silver flashes. Unfortunately there’s no chance to land anywhere so we just pass, wonder and travel on …
Description : Psychedelic blues hip hop with lead banjo and acoustic resonator slide guitar. Acoustic drum kits, fat basslines, soaring filtered strings, some strong Eastern elements (from guitar and strings), some dub and funk from the bass and drums and a bit of rocking electric guitar. Very unusual piece of music and a trip like no other I've heard. Some of it is like a dark, deep Southern delta blues track over a hip hop and dub backing. All played and programmed by me, no loops used.
Description : A spoopy song, early for Halloween. This was a collaboration with Micky, who did most of the work.
A musical realization of a poem by Thomas Hardy
Idea: Spearcarrier
Voices: Spearcarrier & Micky
Music: Micky
Genre: We don't know yet. Suggestions welcome. LOL
Description : Real acoustic, electric and bass guitars played by me. Drums are loops and programmed MIDI. Played piano and synths. Lots of layers and delay. A gated moog, organ, my recorded finger-snaps and a reversed bass guitar effect that sounds like throat-singing. Three movements, divided by moments of calm. Thoughts and feedback are welcome.
Description : Return To Forever was a group that started my love of fusion jazz and this is my attempt to cover their 1976 track, “The Romantic Warrior. I know I wore out several inceptions of this album from LP, cassette and 8 track. The original track was over 10 minutes long, so I abridged it some. Hope you like and download.
Description : A moroccan traditional song from 70s titled "Toudart" which means "Life" in Moroccan berber/Tamazight, revived and composed in a modern way, I used minor2go's piano loop which you can hear on the background, everything elese is from me.
Description : Found some 70's funk drum loops that I liked and added some funk horn loops. Then I found some effects and percussion loops that worked well with the bass loops I found. Yeah, all loops but 1 vocal track of mine. :) Funk/fusion? Might be cool to have some hip hop styled vox on this, any takers?
But you can't be surprised as you know I'm rather into delay. With the setting I'm using here, it takes about two weeks to hear any repeated notes. So it's best suited to tracks at least a few weeks in length.

Sorry I havn't been around to enjoy more gems like this track.

Great job great track mate.
Happy christmas and have a wonderful new year.
Well done
