Listen To Freight Train Conductor Ft Jimmy Stiles Rock Song By TheHumps At Looperman.com

2nd Apr 2019 16:18 - 6 years ago
Description : A song about a train, Jimmy on guitar and his life long friend Billy experimenting with an old Kalamazoo lap steel, a late addition. Fender Tele through a Fender Princeton. I attribute two train loops by Daniel Simion at Soundbible. The third train sound is a guitar loop with effects. I play the bass, sing, acoustic guitar, wrote, arranged and mixed it. Might have the singer in Jim's bluegrass band redo the vox at some point.

Hey Wayne, what a track! Its not really something I'd listen to normally, but 11/10 for content and production, its just perfect for that style of music, very well done to you and your crew sir!

Thanks! I just followed a fairly laid out and somewhat predictable formula for writing this one. Honestly I like how his one turned out too.

Appreciate the visit and comment!

Jim worked for a while directing trains at the busiest station in New Jersey/New York so getting him to join in on this one was easy.

Cheers Majid!

I enjoyed this! The overall mix sounds pretty solid. Everything blended together nicely. If im being a critic I would say the vocals were a bit bland, perhaps some more reverb would of evened things out. I really enjoyed the lap steel. Good stuff, overall nice song.

Just so happens my stage name is El Blandido(the Blandit) so that works out good, ha!

I'm not a lead singer so my voice, when i sing, is what you're gonna get. I try my best but i'm not a lead singer. Ya need vocals in songs to work on mixing so I step up to the plate and sing if need be.

Just did a quick remix to tighten things up.

Appreciate you stopping and commenting!

Oh nooo... :( poor #9... (number nine, number nine, number nine - reversed - turn me on deadman, turn me on deadman) You know, in my other life i'm a train enthusiast, collecting train models, so when i read "Freight train conductor" i absolutely have to listen to this! Anyway, like the style, the touchable passion you and your mates work with... Magnifico!

It's sad how it's always #9, ha!

Glad you like trains and songs about them!

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 : 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 : Produced by me. Vocal by singer from Croatia.
It will be released in few months.
I wanted to offer this song to a singer from LM community but she refused me before i even offered it to her.
I was actually inspired by Richard Shekaris work in here few months ago for this song.
It was meant to be in Latin at first but we found up it's much easier to do it in Italian with almost same effect.
This is all made in FL, no live instruments played , it's all electronic.
Love and peace.

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.
