Listen To Imagination Dance Song By Micky At Looperman.com

First of all, thank you, John, for your kind words. I'm always very happy when someone takes the trouble to go down into my junk room to discover something. Yes, this track was and is one of my favorites... and since I now work with Logic Pro, have gained more experience in mixing and mastering, and have constantly improved my singing skills, your kind comment gives me the opportunity to dig it out again and give it a new polish. You will see this one in the featured tracks in a few weeks.
Cheers,
Micky

Wow - now your comments are sooo flattering. Thank You, thank you.

First of all I have great fun producing these tracks and it's kind of self rewarding. On the other hand of course I would really love to see more folks listening ...

The problem is that I've got nothig but Garage Band on my iMac – this track "Imagination" was mixed before I've bought me some izotope mixing/mastering tools, but even now the sound quality I can get is very limited compared to the standards the professionals have. Or in other words my problem is of monetary nature.

And then I have no idea how to "promote" my tracks on say Soundcloud or Bandcamp other than buying followers or likes, because that's something I wouldn't do. So you see I'm stuck there somehow ...

But thanks a lot for checking my whole catalogue here and giving me these super encouraging comments.

Cheers from Gerrrmany,

Micky

Help!!! Yeah, of course – I absolutely agree. Sorry for the confusion, but that's why we love music, right? It's the better language ....
Greetings to France and au revoir!

Thanks for listening, but since english is not my native language I am not sure what you wanted to say. Do I know only two types of music? I would doubt it ...
I am sure I got you wrong due to the language ...
Michael

Thank You, Patricia,
fresh breath of air - that is what I had in mind when I did this tune. You know, driving down a beautiful beach road in a convertible with the stereo on, looking at happy people surfing, skating, biking, working out. Quite innocent, but that's me. Innocent me.
Thank you for your highly appreciated comment,
stay safe,
Michael

Thank you so much.
I'll take the opportunity to tell you how much I love the always so deep and emotional songs of yours here. It's wonderful to find such heartfelt music in this place, so: Keep up the great work, too!!!
Michael

Haha, I won't go as far as selling it, but borrowing - why not. Thank you for listening.
Since you comment in two languages, I feel flattered twice as much ... ;o)
Saludos,
Michael

Yes, it's true - everything I do is in garageband because it's all that I can afford at the moment. But I think garageband is underrated.
Thanks for listening!

Thank you once more my friend for those schöne Worte!!!
So good to know that there are many others as passionate about making music as I am.
Besides, here's a little secret: I hope that Fuzzy Haskins, who really is one of my heros ("space people - universal lovers...") will never find out, that I sometimes steal parts of his lyrics. And if you ever get to meet him, please don't tell him.
Cheers,
Michael

Hey there Stereonomicon, thanks for the comment. You are right - I try to make my tracks sumptuous and transport some feelings of the past, but at the same time that is my weak point: these procuctions then have to be treated with very good knowledge of the technical side. And since I can't afford any commercial equipment, I have to try and do it with what I have. And that is just Garage Band with some plugins on my iMac. I know that you can come up with good results even with that kind of equipment, but that's what makes it quite difficult.
So I am very happy, that you and Teresa like it ;o)
Have a nice day and stay safe,
Michael

MMhh ... what a groovy comment. Thank you

I think there is my problem already: I use the maximum volume in the mix already (just up before red) because I want to have it pretty loud. Next time I will start at a much lower level from the beginning. You know, in my exitement for some good new track I still tend to get very sloppy but I have to learn that it is important to watch the technical things as well.
Thank you!
Michael

Thank you for the comment. I understand that I should lower the percussions a little, but would you fix that over-compression of mids in the master? I am thankful for any advice ...!

Hey HenryPascal,
I am sorry you got me so wrong here - I was absolutely thankful for the detailed review you gave me, because that was the wakeup call I needed. Thank you so much again!!! I think this is what makes LOOPERMAN so great: you get response, encouragement and criticism so you can learn.
Sorry, my words in the description were meant absolutely funny - a bit of sarcasm on myself. I will remove it, if you feel offended.
I am very glad about your new comment here, because, you know, with this track I had a very hard struggle and was very close to giving up recording at all. But maybe you know this case: for some reason you don't want to skip an idea and try to get it through however. Your review gave me the push I needed and I got myself togetherand got a bit deeper into the technical side.

And: I know about the option to leave a track in the profile and just upload a new mix, but once I realized the poor mix I wanted to take it off as quick as possible ;o)

Thank you very much,
Cheers,
Michael
