I have to explain that by the "creator" I mean the composer and performer of the music.
God is always "The Creator".
Hope there is no misunderstanding. Thanks a lot.

What an outro...so sincere and humble
It is not the first time I write to you that I am a fun. You see there is truth and knowledge in your songs that makes the listener respect the creator. Of course it is not only this. Your music is enjoyable, it is a beauty to the ears...and your commitment is more than understood and believed.
Best wishes, Anthony

Hi, Richard. First, you have written a very inspiring lyric. Is a joyous message and the melody you crafted delivers that with even more power and emotion. I very much enjoyed listening to the song. I do try to provide some suggestions on tracks where I have thoughts about how they might be made even better. I only do this where I really like what I've heard, so I hope you will receive this in the spirit in which it is given. I think the balance in the mix between the instrumental backing and the vocals could be modified a little bit to bring up the instruments a bit more. The vocals clearly need to be dominant in the mix, but the instrumental "bed" backing them I think needs to be elevated just a wee bit. There are also some interesting background vocal parts that really add something special and I'd lift them up a bit more in the mix when they occur. That said, it is a very fine song.

Hi Eric,

Thank you so much for your kind words and for taking the time to listen and share your thoughts , it truly means a lot to me.

Please know that I genuinely appreciate your constructive feedback. Your suggestions about the mix - especially regarding the balance between the vocals and the instrumental backing, as well as highlighting the background vocals are very insightful. Ill definitely revisit the mix, and Ill keep your points in mind for all future works to see how I can enhance those elements without losing the essence of the song.

Its always encouraging to receive thoughtful input, especially from someone who understands and appreciates the heart behind the music. Thanks again for your support!

Description : Another exciting Looperman collaboration! It's amazing how I created this beat last year, and now this artist has written a track that aligns perfectly with it-the key, tempo, arrangement, and even the length fit seamlessly from beginning to end. This has got to be magic.
Hope you all enjoy it!

Description : slow build of beats and I think kind of hypnotic IF you listen to the build! The lyric/ vox seems to be about sexualised violence which (if it is) is NOT cool but I like the sound of it despite the content

Wasnt happy with the mix and now remixed so hopefully sounding better now - mix might still need some tweaking, feedback appreciated.
