Description : UPDATE: Extended and revised version.
I produced additional sounds, reworked the vocals, cleaned the entire sound and mixed everything again. I would be interested to know whether I improved or worsened it.
Based on a old poem from around 1650 by Laurentius von Schnifis.
Everything played and mixed by myself. Parts of the drums by Joe Funktastic.
As always, I would be very happy about a comment.

thanks for the friendly comment.
Good to know that you liked what you hear.
And you don't need to know German to understand any, cause i have put the translation of the lyrics into the song lyric place right by the track :) cause lot of people here cant understand German but can read English
Very cool - used to really love Kraftwerk, Tangerine Dream and even Ultravox - this reminds me a little of them but is actually more cool, a litte darker and more 'fresh' sounding
Great Track and wonderful sound production too : )
Hello pseudoble.
Sorry for my late reaction.
Nice to know that you like the track.
And cooler like Kraftwerk, Tangerine Dream and even Ultravox, is said very nicely :)
Many thanks for your kind words
Hey randomuser13, you have a real great taste. Thanks a lot for all the listen to my music. It looks like i could give you some good moments and thats great for me. Under this link you will found maybe a few other tracks from me that you will like. https://www.reverbnation.com/1096781/album/135599
Hello CinCoCent. Thanks a lot for the listing and for your friendly words. It is all made by me, composing, playing, singing, mixing, etc. so i have the vocals always here :)
stay tuned
joe
:) now, after you downloaded the track and found the translation, i hope the track gets better and better every time you listen to it.
All the best and stay tuned
joe
Glad to see you on the map Joe, any little time I get to listen to your track I enjoy it. I admire your creativity and originality, something I'd like to see more on here. I don't know what you're singing but I really dig your vocals. At times it reminds me of Kraftwerk (may Florian Schneider rest in peace). Great job mate, thanks for sharing. Oh, I almost forgot, I had to press download to keep, I will be listening to this more often so thank you for allowing us to download your music. Faved :)
Hello SunFace. Nice to hear that you can enjoy my creativity. I am a big fan of Kraftwerk and sure it can be that they are anywhere in this track with some inspiration but in fact i can't hear it :) And i have to say thank you for telling me that you will listen to this little track more often just for listening and not only for writing a comment. that's really great!!! And sure also a thank you for the fav.
stay tuned
joe
Jamid, unfortunately that's perfectly true. But has nothing to do with you or your music. As I already wrote, my time windows are really tight at the moment. And not only I suffer from this, but of course many others too. I hardly ever see people outside of work and when I am tired like nothing good or the others are because I have had night shift for months and cannot get out of this number because of Corona ... Everyone tells me "Hey, what's going on Joe, it looks like you don't exist anymore ". .......
But you can be sure that, if chance allows, I am always happy to listen to new music from you or Cru or Danke etc. But unfortunately this is only the case very sporadically. But I hope that will change again soon. So please don't be angry with me my friend.
all the best and stay tuned
joe
REALLY GREAT TRACK HERE.....I WAS HOPING FOR A HEAVY ROCK CHRS....THEIRS SOMETHIN ABOUT YOUR VOCAL THAT MAKES IT CATCHY....ITS A FEW THINGS....GREAT JOB...NO COMPLAINTS HERE WITH YOUR MIX.....
Hello Terry. Good to know that you liked the track even though you expected something completely different. It is always a pleasure to read a friendly comment. Thank you for taking the time to listen to this song and for finding the time to write something.
stay tuned
joe
Hey Jamid. I really didn't believed that you didn't listen to the track. And i pressed to fast on "post" cause i would change some words in the answer but ...... So i want to say thanks for the at least 3. listen. I think we both do it the same way. Listen and then write something. I never wrote any without listen. But i have really almost no time last times and so i really did not listen to much somgs at all. ..... Right now i working almost 2 month on a new track and in my mind it is almost finished but i have to do all the vocal work now and have no really time at all for that. But i bet you will like it when i am present it to the looper family.
so stay tuned Jamid
joe
so when it was stellar before, then it is now inter stellar :) and that's sounds really good to me. Thanks for the second time you invested into listen to this track and write a comment.
Hey there Joe. :-)
This sounds good.
Your voice is soothing.
The muzic is very calm as well and works good with your vocal.
I don't know what it sounded like before,
but it sounds good now!
Hey Jamid,

I haven't been around for ages but here you are Joe and you never fail to please!
I've all but dried up for the last year but your old poem idea has me inspired me!
Well that's excellent. I am only here sporadically, at least recently and that you have just come back, that is very good.
And i am happy to see you on the loop again.
Cool to know that i could inspire you. I'm excited to see what happens.
So, a warm welcome back and thanks for your comment and Fav Mr. Silverman.
stay tuned
joe
P.S .: The whole thing is almost a series. You should listen to the previous song. The text there is based on a much older work of mankind. The -Te deum- from the 4th century ....... but I used the already translated versions from 1529 and 1774 to create a new work https://www.looperman.com/tracks/detail/210321
and this song fits perfectly with these two, but the poem used is a work of mine that goes back to a poem by Christion Morgenstern https://www.looperman.com/tracks/detail/208596
All of these suggestions about adding reverb are totally wrong. If you are going to add anything to the mix. Add some Valhallah Uber Mod asymmetric pong, but a really light mix with a wide variance. Adding Reverb would just muddle the vocals in the end run and add nothing but chaos. Just IMHOP my friend. ;)
Cru
I have to take a look at or should i say into the Valhallah. The name sounds good :)
Otherwise, I also think that it is good as it is.
I am always pleased that there are people here who make the effort to listen to a new version of a song for the second time and then take the time to write something. Thank you very much for that and for your opinion Cru.
Good morning friend, your song has certainly had a positive evolution, resulting richer in listening in terms of sound. I agree with theHumps in the idea of adding a bit of reverberation to a voice of a large environment, such as an underground cave or a tunnel, this to give more suggestion to the acting. Best wishes
I really like the feel of the song, reminds me of late 80's new wave bands. I think the vocals could use a little bit more reverb to have them sit in the mix a little better, they stand out rather than sit in the mix. Just my opinion. Other than that I think you have something really good here!
Thanks a lot for your words Wayne.
I tested some more reverb on the vocals before uploading but in a way i didn't liked it that much. So i reduced it more and more and this is what comes close to what i liked :)
Maybe it is because my focus was/is more on the poem then on the track itself ..... I should look for someone from outside to do a mix, maybe others are not that deep into my interpretation of things.
Cool Mate, The music got a bit more in your face. Very techno with hints of acid and nicely mixed, as always a work of art with a modern twist by you brings joy to my day. I like this one better.
Cru
Description : Feel free to check out the video on YT as well (Alan McLaren Project - Upside Down) of this 6min journey from electronic to rock with some psychedelic moments...
This is my latest, but also one of my earliest tracks.... any feedback is more than welcome, thanks :)
Description : A demo of one of my current projects. The chorus vocal sounds like "Aaaaraashe" to me. The song is in C# minor with a nod to C# pythagorean on the chorus. The beat on the verse was inspired by the Peter Gabriel song Intruder.
Description : This is one of my earliest productions that I did at the start of my recording career. I did not have a keyboard at the time I made this song, so I improvised and used my sister's iPad and a 5 dollar GarageBand application instead, and plugged the headset jack into into my PT6 rig and did my best to turn each individual track (which were mono and there were about 25 tracks or so) into a stereo image. Then recorded vocals over it. My computer was so old and slow that I had to mix my music and then BOUNCE it to a new session - four times. My computer (which had 512 MB RAM and an 80 GB hard drive) couldn't handle more than 8 tracks at a time or it'd stop working because the processor couldn't handle it. Took me FOREVER to do. But I got it done. Had a lot of fun doing it too, even if it isn't my "best" work. I'm still happy with it, considering I didn't have many tools to choose from at the time.
Description : Long time lurker first time poster, pretty new to production n stuff, this is my first track in Ableton Live.
was going for a darkwave/synthwave sound, reminiscent of Justice, Carpenter Brut, Perturbator, ect.
Looking for some feed back, constructive criticisms or even just your thoughts if you liked it or not. This is just a rough cut on this current WIP, just the bones of it if you will.. If you have some cool title suggestions, would love to hear those too.
Thanks for listening.

Description : Far out mid-tempo fat beat deep chillout grooves with Eastern/Arabic and slightly menacing vibes, huge delayed synth bass and a great palette of psychedelic layered and intricate sounds (mostly synths) and a stirring, epic feel. Even has guitar solo section reminiscent of some 80s power rock which is then followed by a brief synth harp solo. I began making it straight after staying round the flat of the flute player from the legendary Ozric Tentacles - easily the greatest ever space rock band. I made this in about 2001 and still think it might be my best track (and it's nice and short, for a change). My production skills were much weaker in those days (no EQ, compression or mastering used here) but, somehow, this one turned out pretty much just right. Feel free to disagree. Now sit back and get ready to trip extremely far out. If you manage to return, let me know how that trip was...
Description : Got some spare time finally...just started on some random ideas basically (lets say kygo meets alan walker). A blend of dubstep,edm,downbeat,tropical etc.
It's still a work in progress, so i would appreciate your honest inputs. Thanks to all those whose loops I have used in here, sorry I don't have time to search them out.
Edit-added some more filthy sounds from my previous tracks and gave it some ending. Advice will be helpful.
Good to know that you liked what you hear.
And you don't need to know German to understand any, cause i have put the translation of the lyrics into the song lyric place right by the track :) cause lot of people here cant understand German but can read English
