Listen To CTHULHU CALLING Third Version Electronic Song By Stereonomicon At Looperman.com

Marco,

Pretty cool mix you have here. Actually what attracted me to check it out was the title. I first learned about Cthulhu playing D & D and reading H.P. Lovecraft back in the college days. I dig the track as I'm always hip to interesting and unique approaches to music and music interpretation. It very much reminds me of early Pink Floyd and how they used sound effects and soundscapes as integral components in their material. Props on the production here, it's very good, and I especially like your focus on movement. A lot of producers overlook this aspect of the recording or don't put enough emphasis on it. Another important component in this type of music is texture or how well the various layers of sound interact with each other. Things like melody, tempo, harmonics etc. and how well they are combined really define the overall quality of the mix. You pretty much nailed that too.

If I was to find anything negative or had to nitpick something, I would say that as I listened I was hoping it would actually develop into something. It doesn't strike a chord, contain a rhythm or fully develop into a beat. Instead, the rhythm is intuitive and free-flowing. So essentially its a soundscape and cant be categorized as music. That's not a bad thing by any means, I'm just stating that as a listener I was left wanting or waiting on the music. However, Since you stated in your description that this will be the opening piece of your album, I feel that this is intentional and is essentially a 5 minute buildup to the first track of the album. Which makes me all the more impressed with your genius cause now I have to buy your album to see where this leads !!!

Good stuff and nice marketing,

Neo

Loving this track it sounds really good on earphones very well done it is class.

Marco, this is exceptional work. If they made candy for the ears, this would be it. As far as the mixing and mastering, I think it is spot on. There is a lot going on in this track, a lot of moving pieces traveling from one side of my head to the other. I'm not sure how you did it, but you allowed for that movement so I could still find each individual instrument without wondering what happened to it. As each instrument moves into another spectral space, another moved to occupy the spot it just left. Absolutely brilliant. This one is a master class in panning and balance. And it's really enjoyable as well. You should be proud. I hope all is well.

Nice!

Hello Marco,

Mate, your music is a piece of stratosphere music, my friend.

Nice work on this track mate.

The mix is brilliant too.

Well done.

Nature intro cool! Woah I hear it coming in. Oooo different drum beat dang, I like this already. Yes it is hypnotizing me in a good way! Lol My ear is thankful for this right here. I don't hear enough cosmic sounds which I enjoy. Great work CC

Wow! How did I miss this track?
I've got to pay closer attention to what's featured on LM.
I know now, that if it's "Steronomicon to check it out.
I think the title threw me.
I love your work with evolving/rhythmic Synths. The foreground background panning is especially satisfying.
I was thinking "Pink Floyd"at first, but I'd have to say, it's all you.
I also like the sound of your new Drums.
Great track...
PEACE from the Beach...

Marco, hello.

I listened to this the other day, but unfortunately, I wasn't able to sit down and fully listen with intent. Today, I had the chance to revisit, and I'm glad I did.

There are a few things I really like about this track.

I use a lot of sound effects in my tracks to help build an ambiance, so using the water sounds in the beginning was a definite plus.

I particularly enjoy how the sequenced bassline stays steady through the entire track, yet all of the other synths fade in and out of each other. Like elements mixing in water. The entire piece is very fluid and seamless. The combination of arps, sequences, and droning pads perfectly represent submarine-scapes. I particularly enjoyed the fact that it could be a much busier track, but it stays quite reserved, and with what you do have in there, it's not crowded. Everything about this song is the perfect representation of underwater life.
The only thing I don't fully understand is the airy outro. For the entire track, we were submerged, but then it was a dry wind-like exit. To be clear, though, it's not a bad ending, or displeasant in any way. I still enjoyed it thoroughly. I just wasn't sure if we were being transported up and out of the water, or not.

As far as the mix and equalization goes. Everything sounds good to me. It's crystal clear, it's fluid and dynamic. There is a lot of motion, it's a wide expansive sound. Nothing jumps out in the mix, nor does it duck behind anything. It's not a wall of sound that's too loud to listen to, but everything can be heard clearly.

Overall, this is a high quality piece and I enjoyed listening to it.

Take care.
Aaron

DOPE, VERY OUTTA SPACE, I DIG IT!!!

love the intro, it got me to the mood. love the everything is sitting on the mix. Great job

I like the slow build in the intro. The arpeggio that comes in at 2:00 sounds great. The second arpeggio layer that comes in at 2:40 works well with the first. The long airy outro is really cool. Great track.

Wow, this track kept my attention. I think you did a great job with all of the elements and the feel of the track.

Hello Marco, this is one more fantastic sonic journey from your lab. The depth of your works always gives me goosebumps. I guess I will get me some books of HPL - I'm sure that will even increase the listening pleasure ...
Regards

So well balanced, gliding from structure to structure, excellent choice of sounds. The effects of the elements gives them the space, small rooms or sharpness they need, really good mastering from fade in to fade out - great work, sell it! ;)

this has a great structure and presence — i love when it gets motorik. phantasmic and funky

Perfect. I just made a nice cup of Chai Tea, Sat back and hit play to hear what my friend Marco has done with this. Love the bass intro fading in from the ocean. Cool the bass and the analoge toms are forbidding, then the squelchy synths remind you of some sick demented sea creature rising up. then the sequenced arpeggio synths are the people running away from the sea monster. The detuned choral synths represent people yelling, and the xylophone-like synths celebrate confusion. 3:18 is a subtle bass making you feel that the Monster is upon them, and the wispy synths are people being struck by its tentacled appendages. The white noise is the hopelessness of the situation for all the carnage wrought. The scene is now desolate. Yeah, I think you nailed the meaning of Cthulhu, and how´s that for a description. It was a really good cup of tea, and a good listen.
Have a good night mate.
Steven
