Description : Here is sort of a ZZ Top? type rocker I put together with my own playing and re-arranging of loops.
In the first part, it is more rhythm based so all you hot rod guitarist can play lead in. Then in the middle, I play some, and at about 2:20,
I am using my Framus -Les Paul solid body 'look alike'.
Probably be the last tune I upload this year.
Hope you like it and have fun with it.

Thanks for stopping by and listening/reviewing this tune of mine. I appreciate the kind words. Sorry that I haven't made any songs since April, but I just had too much overtime at work....usually working a month straight before having any days off.
Now things have slowed way down and I am also going to retire at the end of this year. So I'll have more time for music.
I am putting together a classic type rock tune that you'll probably enjoy. Won't be ready till next month probably.
Man I'm really feeling good now!! Heart a pumping!! THis was a great tune def ZZ Top (My Favorite) without the leggs!!!lol Luved the break at 1:30 and that Guitar of yours at 2:25 was SMOKIN!! You take care of that baby for me!! I enjoyed all your songs today!! I will be back!! Excellent work!!
I believe this is the last tune you reviewed today. Probably wore you out with all that rock!
I am working on more of a Techno one now. We'll see how that turns out. It'll be somewhat half keyboard based. I just bought new Korg M3 so that is fun to play with.
Take care friend and thanks again for your comments. I'll try and do better.

Randy,
I just adore this style of rock.
As a career bass player, I can tell you that some of the very best moments in my life were on stage driving a band performing this style. Like the King said, "Rock-n-roll music, if you like it, you just can't help but move to it. That's what happens to me."

I thank you for reviewing this tune and I appreciate your comments very much.
I guess I am just going thru a rock phase now.
I love bass and drums as if they sound good, they can make the song.
If you'd like to hear my 'Guitar Heros' song remixed with vocals recently, please go to Warrior777 on here and play the only track available.
The gal is from Washington State and does a decent job...sounding some like Grace Slick.
The vocals were too loud the first time thru and then everything got panned to the left, so I think she got it straightened out pretty well. She does a nice job with it.
Your welcome to try and put vocals to my tunes as well.
Since a good share of my tunes in this genre are loop based, (As noted in different songs I do) I can't easily change anything from here.
I just put them togetrher like a puzzle.
Thanks again for listening...I will review some more of your material and give feedback......right now I am running behind. :)
Thanks again for listening to one of my later tunes.
This was done in Pro Tools which is a comprehensive program that takes several months to learn, plus having the right hardware to start with.
I used a combo of loops and my own playing in this song. Putting loops together and making them fit into the tune seemlessly is the key.
As far as creating a track like this, not sure how far Garageband will take you.
I have never used any other program so I can't compare.
Thanks for listening and am glad you liked the song.
ZZ top all the way..man can you play that guitar..nice tone..and upbeat to this track..very nicely done...Dvibe
I downloaded a couple of your tracks..thanks for sharin..
woow, you killed it bro!
you smash this tune, love the leads in there!
and the little electric switch @ 1:25 was just awesome and from there it just took me all the way!
great tune mate, very enjoyable
Hello again Butcha,
Hey, am glad you got to check this tune out as well. Not that I need anymore reviews really.
I posted this link with the other one as somedays on Looperman, you post a song and with so many others uploading theirs too, your tune disappears in several back pages in a matter of hours!
The only way then is usually to catch it by watching the Featured section.
So this tune was a fun one to make as well as 'Rock With Me'. These are the tunes I always wanted to play live, but our band at the time was more into country-rock.
Still will check out your tunes...tomorrow for sure, and give you feedback. Thanks again Butcha!!
Randy
Hello majucarma,
Received 3 e-mails from you regarding this tune saying about the same thing. :)
Thanks for reviewing this tune and am happy that you liked it.
I made it 'quieter' in the first half so you could download it and play along if you wanted to.
I'll checkout one for your tunes now and give you a review.
Thanks for listening and the review....I appreciate it very much.
Randy
Hi Daniel,
I appreciate you dropping by as well and listening to my work. I don't try and copy anyone, but there are thousands of tunes out there and you almost can't make an original today without sounding like part of someone elses song.
I am glad you got to play along with it as that is why the lower lead volume level in the 1 st half, as I mentioned in the title area.
I'll try and make more, but I need a rest! lol
Thanks again..I will review one of your tunes in return.
Randy
Randy, this one cries for vocals!!!
I wouldn't compare it with the Black Crowes, it's too straight and too less bluesy, but The Cult springs into my mind ...
awesome work buddy ...
Nice to wake up in the morning and get another nice review from you and others,
Thanks for stopping by, it is much appreciated.
If you'd like to put some vocals with it, your certainly welcome....or anyone else here for that matter.
I was trying to capture what was in my head for the uultimate rock tune. I think I got it. Maybe a little Hammond B3 organ sound, which I have access to, would have rounded it out?
Rockin' juggernaut!.....I dig this one Randy!..Nothing beats the equation of...Heavy rockin' riffs,powerhouse skin playing,screeching lead work,solid bottom end boogieing,forked beards..and heaps and heaps of volume!...man you are one versatile critter!..a lot of players stick to one or two styles..all the different genres you have played display a great degree of control and insight into their inner workings,and an understanding of probably a more difficult aspect..their subtle influence from the music they grew out of...exceptional work!...have a great Christmas mate and I look forward to hearing more great work from you in 2009..cheers Dave :)
Hi there Dave,
Now...what did you say? lol
Thanks for the great review in describing my tune.
I appreciate all you said and can only say, I play 6 different instruments and thus I love music, and thus again, I will play different genre of Country, Blues and Rock type of music.
I suppose it is my old age and long experience that has helped me cross bridges from one style to another. I put myself into the soul of that type of music I am playing at the time and go for it, thinking like a Blues player or whatever.
I am playing what I want to hear in my heart and soul...Solid drums, solid bass, quiet or loud guitar. I feel this stuff inside and know when I have it and can release for others to enjoy.
That's how I do it.
Plus having quality equipment helps too.
Thanks Dave and have a Merry Christmas there.
Damn right its a rocker! I know its rock n roll man, but I think the levels are a bit high. The backing track drowns your lead work. Other than that, the track is a sizzler. Nicely done and I love your chops! A+
Don't believe I have seen you review one of my tunes before...so thanks a lot. I appreciate it very much. I will return the favor shortly.
The lead volume levels in much of the song are lower on purpose as I mentioned in the heading/title...I wanted others to play along with it and have fun with it too.
My main leads come in during the middle part and at the 2:20 part mostly.
So I am glad you liked it and I can tell you, I enjoyed making it very much.
I think I have gotten this 'Pro Tools' software down enough so I can do what I want and get the sounds I want.
This tune was 'Mastered' as well so it is up to Red Book code.
Nice playing my friend! I really can't find anything to pick at with a track like this, and it's not even my usual listening pref. Puts me in mind of Black Crowes just a bit, which is cool, used to be one of my favs back in the day. Good work.
Description : -JUST-IN, BREAKING, NEWSFLASH, BREAKING NEWS
renowned R&B Hip-Hop & Rapper dimestop has shocked the music industry with his latest drop, he's produced and singing vocals on a rock track with Rock Megastar Danke.
Rolling Stones magazine say a grammy in the making....hip hop insiders claim he's sold out
snoop dog was reported saying careful that motha fucka rip your heart out
Time Magazine state this is epic
Elon Musk tweeted #he's my Rocket man... more to follow as the story unfolds.
Description : This is my newest creation, at a stage very near to completion. No third-party mastering or mixing, as with all my tracks. Just have to fix a few tiny things. I FINALLY WAS ABLE TO MIX EVERYTHING IN THE SAME SESSION. This song has all human-played instruments - no quantization or MIDI! My brother does all the vocals except for the interlude part, which I do. My other brother plays the rhythm guitar (a Gibson Les Paul Custom - only one of 12 in the world!!) and I play the accompanying guitar (a Johnny Mar Jag and PRS). He has a lot of guitars :P A good friend of ours, Ronnie, plays the bass and another friend, Freddie, plays the drums. The drum track was done in one take (had to use an electric drum set due to time constraints - but acoustic kits are so much better). Overall, pretty satisfied with the result. Let me know your thoughts.
Description : Feel free to check out the lyrics video on YT as well :) This is a new track based on the great vocals by Ashes and Dreams! Again, a mix of electronic/progressive/rock, any feedback is welcome
Description : The first track I sing on. Cheap stage mic & no fancy plugins. Heavily guitar laden to the point it's got a bit of a shoegaze thing going on. I pulled the lyrics out of my ass & yes, they're a bit silly.
Description : This song was not supposed to be the fourth track of "Diverse waves", but it finally is. Anyway it's a rock oriented track with some interesting sounds. I hope you like it. Worked in zenbeats DAW, by Roland.
Description : BIG UPDATE 26/02/2014 - So, this was an 18 min track that I have now successfully split in two. 2nd half I uploaded a few weeks ago (Things That Should Always Be, with the bouncy 2 min reggae intro). This is the first half, which has a new mix, a mega chill, meditative ending and a little jazz thrown in for good measure. Takes a few minutes for beat to really kick in. Constantly evolving electric guitar, bass guitar, acoustic drums and lead banjo driven by fat, busy 80BPM grooves with a bit of a reggae and shuffle feel. Also: synth choir voices, dulcimer, violin, cello, shimmering pads. Builds up gradually to nice and rocking and then gets taken back down for the big comedown chill. I really don't know what sort of genre this is except 'far out'. I think it sounds more like a live band than one guy playing instruments and manipulating a DAW. Not my best track but a bit of blissful, sunny island fun. Real positive vibe here so I hope you give it a chance to unfold and unfurl. Sit back, clear your schedule and immerse yourself in these trippy sonic experiments cooked up deep in my off-planet underground laboratory. I have to send the MP3 to Earth via space courier (not cheap).
Description : This track was like the inhale after an exhale of aggressive industrial-electro-sludge tracks that I had put out that summer and fall. This was the more reserved, and introspective winter track. It's nothing spectacular, but I still really enjoy it. I hope you do too. Take care. V.
Description : when i was a kid you could go down and buy acid drops at the dairy - sour boiled sweets....vox, guitars and keys by me. Bass a LM loop by megapaul.

Thanks for commenting on my latest tune. I appreciate you giving it a listen to even tho it might not be your favorite type of music.
I haven't heard any Black Crowes songs in a long time so I'd have to go back and re-aquaint myself. I can do that on itunes.
I had a lot of fun making this one.
Guess I'll go back to making another slide blues tune.
Thanks again for your nice review.
