Black And Blue - Zootman

21st Jul 2026 13:29 - 4 weeks ago
Description : First half is a weird bad acid blues trip; second half is the dreamy good acid.

Started as a joke, then I had to finish it to some degree coz I got strangely attached to it. Pseudoble played the distorted freak guitar. All other guitars, synths and vocals by Zoot. Music made by humans - obviously.

If you have time take a listen and give Zootman some feedback.

Don't know why I imagined a fly on the wall from it's perspective in a dream like state. Would be a cool movie for sure, with your track. I do like different things, this does it for me!

Yeah it didn't come out anything like it but in the second half I was aiming for a Pavement vibe like on Pueblo.

Thanks man. I'm fond of the chill bit, I liked adding the oohs and aaahs. Some of them were falsetto, which I'd never do in public lol.

Interesting dive into a world, yes, rather dreamy where duality makes it understandable.
It has been an easy listen though so I'd say the approach is successful.
Best regards, Anthony

Duality yes, I like that. Well described. Thanks for the listen, Zoot.

Strange little track, I enjoy the weirdness of the first half, also the dreamy floating of the second. The subtle background vocals in the latter are also a very nice touch. Bobo.

Yep it's a silly little thing really. In fact that was a possible title for it and one stage.

Hi Chris, well, this definitely has something to do with insects, but in a very delightful way. This is a truly beautiful piece of music that could only spring from genuine inspiration!!! It is truly amazing how easily something like this comes to you. Ahoi!

Ha, well I guess those weird synth sounds in the first half might be reminiscent of busy insects. Cheers Chris

Interesting track that takes the listener on a psychodelic trip. I like that the composition is two-staged: it starts with a rather chaotic, unsettling atmosphere and transforms perfectly into a rather cozy and dreamy condition at the end.

Zootman replied 27th Jul 2026 - 3 weeks ago
Yes a bit of a trip. I am quite fond of the second section, I feel like it could be a proper song perhaps if if extended it and added some vocals with lyrics. Thanks, Zoot.

Hello Zootman, the beginning is somewhat slow to take hold before a more organized and recognized music shape takes form.....my opinion
Zootman
Zootman replied 23rd Jul 2026 - 3 weeks ago
That's probably a fair comment. I really did start it as a joke with the warbly off key synths, but then it morphed. I think I could probably make a half decent song out of it actually, if I did some words/vocals on the second portion. Cheers Zoot.

Love this - instantly I got transported to psychedelic Beatles and some George Harrison Music namely his Cloud 9 album. Love the flow of guitars into the distortion - brilliantly weaving and luring you in to a delightful guitar utopia

Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed it. I think it needs a new title tho! But I haven't thought of one yet.

Description : Hey guys! Something different this time. I pulled from my teenage angst for this. As well as listening to a lot of indie artists, Ryan caraveo being my favorite. Let me know what you guys think! I know this one isn't going to be too popular but hope you guys like it! I feel like it might be a little bass heavy but tell me what you guys think!

Description : This track is a collaboration with another Looperman member, Salve Clements, a very talented vocalist from Australia. Salve wrote the lyrics and composed and recorded the vocal melody and lyrics.

In working on the mix, I simply wasn’t able to achieve a proper balance in the overall sound. So, I got some help from Wytse Gerichhausen of White Sea Studio in the Netherlands. He was able to fix the problems I had created and got it sounding the way I had hoped it would.

Description : In 2017 my little cousin took his own life. My entire family blamed themselves for it. Never questioning what he was going through or what he may have been feeling. For a long time, I wanted to create a song where I put myself in the shoes of someone hurting. This song has a long way to go before it's finished. I wanted to share what I have thus far in hopes it inspires me to finish it.

Description : Well i uploaded my first track here 10 years ago and slowly lost interest making tracks except for my work but lately, I've been itching to rework the mix, so maybe I'll get back to work? In any case, here's a track that was lying around on a hard drive with some pop vibes and 80s-style synths, so I reworked it. I'll probably redo the guitar tracks, but the basics are there.
