I really love the bells, the ambient synths and the vocals especially. Dope!

Thanks man. I was pretty happy with this one. Haven't had much time to listen or compose lately, though I did post an ambient thing today, might feature it sometime. I'm also looking forward to another listen to those tracks you sent me! Cheers.

Aces. The mix is great, instrument choices are also really good. Your mellow vox is hypnotizing. About 2:19 was a good tremolo effect stereo-wise. And then came back again at 3:00. A little coda at 4:00. good work.

Great soundcape, entry into a dreamworld. Everything is so niced layered amazing vibe an feel you created. Today i was suprised to hear a track with your mellow voice. It has something natural that calms me down. It fits perfect to your beat. The lyrics are amazing , honest and real. I want to hear more of this kind.

Zootman replied 2nd Dec 2021 - 2 years ago
I read this poem in a book I keep by the toilet, and the words of the poem resonated with me. Sometimes I believe everyone in this world is fighting some sort of battle. Anyway, glad you found it calming, that was the effect I was trying for. All the best Chris.

Hi there, always good to hear the mix sounds OK. I have to mix mostly through headphones (or the car stereo!) so not always easy to know how it translates. Cheers Chris

I especially like the tremolo on the guitar. Kinda spacey, a bit trippy. Not a big fan of the drums but i do like the overall feel and atmosphere of the track. Vox sound decent in the mix, interesting lyrics too.

Cool!

Magical beyond all fairy doubt... You cleared air that mountains choked on my friend. I am in love with this style beat, it's so evanescent like shattering mists and your vox was so warm... I think that's where Cyberflares got the Led Zep Idea from. I am sorry about your pal man if there is any truth to this... My eyes were gleaming and my heart was enamored all in the same strokes... Keep at it brother!

Nice work mate - I just got myself some new monitors and this sounds great on them - the drums and the bass especially- though all this is very nice (again your vocal is reminding me of The Chills) really strangling that guitar but it fits well for the track and the sound production is excellent

Zootman replied 22nd Nov 2021 - 2 years ago
Cheers Ian, the bass was off an organ vst, I used it on death of a pacifist track too, thought it sounded really rich and warm. When you gonna break out your Hammond?!

Nice music box. Took a second to find the beat, but when it came in is was crystal clear. Nice deep vox and melodic choices. Did you sing the harmony or cheat?

Very nice instrumentation and mix all the way through. Tasteful breaks.

Had to download this one, you get a fav.
Zootman
Zootman replied 21st Nov 2021 - 2 years ago
Hey there, cheers for the listen and fav. Funny considering our wee conversation re trap genre. Well...I have sung some harmonies before but not on this one. However I did record two separate vocals (i.e. I didn't use a doubler).I used a harmonizer (aegean music pitchproof harmonizer) freebie. It sounds completely artificial if you have too much wet mix in it, but I tried to use it just enough to colour the vox. I guess if you weren't sure I may have been subtle enough.

some days I think there's no such thing as chance, next day I believe the opposite. Yeah I wanted to tell a story with this one, though it isn't actually based on any real event or personal experience. I love the poem, it is in a book I keep next to the dunny (toilet) for when you want to sit and think.

Description : This song is my first attempt at trap(?) and was made ENTIRELY with Looperman loops in honor of this awesome site and also to demonstrate what you can do with Looperman loops :P. Compiled, edited/processed, mixed and roughly mastered in about 16 hours. I am collaborating with a Looperman rapper right now who will lay some verses on this and I will do the hook. In other words this is not a finished product just yet, but wanted y'alls opinions on it.

I was attempting to create a high-energy trap(?) beat with a blend of wubbiness. Let me know what you think.

Description : Step 1) Make a really repetitive beat (No Distortion).

Step 2) Make sure there's a long segment at the end of the beat of JUST THE BEAT because the actual song will only be like a min and 40 secs.

Step 3) For the "distortion", don't actually distort the beat. Most people think you distort the 808 to get the the XXXTENTACION sound, but that's wrong. Make sure the beat is PROPERLY mixed/mastered and THEN boost the bass frequencies until you reach your desired amount of distortion.
