Description : So this is defintely not done! It is one of the songs I plan on releasing in an upcoming EP (still in planning stages) but this song has been done since 2016! You'll see that there are 2 versions of the same song in here. 1 was me just trying to get it down out of my head (minimal instruments for that one, at one point, I'm hitting the table with my first, a pencil, and making Hh effects with my mouth while I also do a fake sax solo cause i dont play sax). the other version is a more polished version (still bad) but it gets you a better look at the full structure of the song.
Now as to why I am posting it here, I need help with making the actual track for this song! I want to keep the piano and maybe switch up the drum track a little bit, but obviously I need help with engineering vocals and the sax solo in this song! I need a sax player from looperman to see if they could record this solo for me! If you're interested, please email me at alexandermademusic@gmail.com

I would also REALLY appreciate any suggestions? I feel like the song is missing one key thing aside from everything I can show you here...

Ey how are you doing? I like your song, the second version is good... If you want to produce it your self in my opinion you should start by working the rhythmic section, first adding a bass, if you want to add a real sounding one you can use a kontakt one for the pre-producction, adding compresors, eq and an amp emulator you should have a good one, if you want a synth line like static, write me, i will help you doing it. After that, working on how to articulate and give a special movement to every different section (you can look how to add and remove layers, and using sounds to enter the news areas). I would change the sounds that you are using, the shaker is better to put some rice in a tube and record it with your mic, if you have a real shaker that's better of course. For the drum, check some librarys, I recommend you this one for the sound that I think that you are looking for https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6PZSFwd6mO0 (i know that it says that its for trap, but i think that it will work any way haha).
In my opinion it will be a good idea to chop the e piano that you are using, and use it like a sample, but that a style thing.
And when you have that ready, you can go over the melodic part, i don't think that you will need a real sax player for that little melody, you can look again for a sample library for kontakt, other option is to look for a real sample, taken by your self and put it in tune, it will be another melody, but maybe you are open to that, i don't know.
The voice, I don't know why did you filtered the second version, it was good at the beginning, but not for all the song (that's my opinion, of course). I like the arrengements that you made on it, I think that you should take some time to work on it, I noted that you used autotune melodyne or something like that, and its compressed too, its just a matter of time.

All this that im saying is for a pre-production, of course after that you can look for somebody to collab and add some new ideas, this is just for improve the ideas that you all ready have.

Sorry for my bad english. If you want, you can write me and I will help you if thats in my possibilities. I hope that it will be useful for you, I din't pretend to criticize your work.

Good luck. Fede.

I meant to add, a producer who comes to mind on here is Melodic dreamer.
He's good. VERY GOOD. There are a number of others on here who have talent,
you just have to search for them. But don't sleep on MD:

Okay,

Loved the song, starting at 3:46 (yeah, I know its the more polished version).

If you're submitting this to a label (indie with connections or major label interested in you) go with the polished version. Please understand, the potential is there, and its possible the music (not your vocals) will be
arranged and handled by others with more experience.

If you're planning on releasing this yourself, then still go with the more
polished version, however there are musicians on Looperman who could help
you with mastering, etc. Just make SURE you have a copyright on your creation before file sharing, because this is business.

Lastly, as much as I like people who have humility, and its okay here on Looperman, belief in yourself is half the battle. Take the song out of
"weird" category. It's not. A sax solo? Uh, no. But that's just my humble opinion :). You're selling yourself. Your songwriting skills, your unique sound. Own that shit. Even if you don't think you know what you're doing, act like you do. Because if someone wants to sign you, they have to know
that they can re-coup their investment and that you can put butts in the
seats. Develop a second persona that you can switch to when its time for
business/and or performing.

Remember, there are kids coming up behind you that already have their own
home studios, have been performing and writing for years. These are my
unasked for suggestions.

hey there!
there's something of Morrissey in your voice. You remembered me the smiths a band from the eighties. I talk about the intonations but also in the atmosphere with highly-rated stabbing one.

Great track

Description : A song I wrote over a guitar track that I found on YouTube. Link to the original track can be found below.

Have been attempting to write 2-3 songs over the past couple of months with little success, when this one just appeared out of nowhere.

It's a bit odd I guess (which is why I tagged it as weird) but I enjoyed creating and listening back to it, so here it is.

Thank you!

Description : I am quite open to all kind of music out there. This time I had some Church organ pipes lying around. With the help of 2nick8 and IMHO one of his best songs out there I put him into a big room and let the organs speak. Yes, maybe weird, maybe different, maybe 2nick8 will throw some egg against me ... I did it. What do you all think of it? (I changed the Genre to "Weird" in the meantime but "Experimental" would do also.

Description : I started out making this track a Vocal track, then it turned into a Chillout track but, now I'd say DubJazz, PsychoFunk or Weird. You be the Judge.

PEACE...

Description : This track is only magmatic chaos hanging on a simple rhythmic skeleton. I had fun shaping and mixing the most disgusting electronic slurry.

Description : Hey guys! Well, this is the first time I upload a song with my voice. I have to confess that this is not a style I usually sing. And, as an extra point, this is my first song in english. My native language is spanish, my english is not perfect, so sorry for mistakes (grammar, pronunciation, etc). Well, about lyrics, I explain the story on description of the instrumental version. If you want to read the story or hear the instrumental track, go here [ https://www.looperman.com/tracks/detail/146653 ]. This song was made on Magix Music Maker 2013 Premium and Adobe Audition 3.0. I hope you like it. Thanks! SUN & MOON... FIRE & ICE HEART... LIGHT & DARK FUSION...

Description : I haven't done anything in awhile. I got tired of screwing with this so just did some gain staging & panning & slapped it on here. It definitely sounds like something I would do.

Description : I wanted to do something different, TheFrenz sent me the stems to his excellent track 'Transformer' - And only one of the several versions of the track, using many of the same elements each time.
So I threw my hat in the ring with a version of my own, taking the elements of Transformer and doing some transforming. It only makes the song title that much more awesome. Music can certainly be transformed, taken to its next form...and the music can also be what transforms US. Pretty deep, man.

Description : So i did a bit of sound design on an interview i watched (its not a film or anything with reserved rights so Looper Admin finna chill out,lol)
its of a lady who committed a crime of passion, tortured her BF for 3 days before killing him because he had "snitched" and put many people in Jail.she shows no remorse at all and is presentably a very highly intelligent individual..this is a project i did.
basically some cinematic ambiance to accompany the tone of the convo and at the end i just put some simple loops of strings,arps and a nice killer guitar...didnt work hard on the drums tho..i dont know what genre this is so i will put it under "weird" then sit in a corner and cry coz no one listens to weird stuff lol
peace Loopers

Description : Again not sure of genre but it is kinda weird. Very much an experiment and Im not sure if it works but someone will let me know no doubt. If you can cope at all probably better with headphones. Pad sound is guitar treated with reverbs, crazy drums constructed from Akai kits and free jazz SFZ kit, sax samples and minimal synth line from arturia minifreak
