Track 12 - Essentia - Gixxie

30th Jul 2026 15:26 - 3 months ago
Description : Hello Looperman team, i didn't have a name for this project yet so i just named it 'Essentia' which is latin for "the Essence" or just essence. Latin track titles are always cool for some reason.. i'm continuing my signature, chilled out, organic hip-hop sound and i am trying to get away from trap and the 808 for a while... searching for new energy..

Wonderful! You could certainly consider it finished. Its so cool and laid-back ... the way it is, it could just go on like this all day.

..I know what you mean, it could go on forever with different arrangements, but I wanted it to be minimalistic so people can fill in the gaps with the sounds in their own heads. There is still room for an electric guitar and some distant strings in the background, maybe a male choir even.. this is one of those projects that will never be finished once you've started it..

The way the drums works for the track defines the track. And I think it will guide you to an evolution of this piece of music. I believe you have put things to the right direction and some more effort is needed to complete this song.
Best regards, Anthony

Hey Anthony, thanks for the love, happy you enjoyed it. I will heed your advice and improve on the foundations laid out in this track, interestingly some people are fine with the way it is, the feedback is conflicting alot. I personally think it's not finished and it needs to be around 4 or 5 minutes with more tribal sounds or latin percussions added, the ideas are endless..

Chill vibes, nice drums and bass. Balanced production. Nice work.

Yeah in this one I managed to properly implement gain staging and the track basically mixed itself after that. Just a little EQ'ing and I added some static noise from a Reason 13 effect but forgot the name.. in the end everything blended really well. Thanks for the listen and comment!!

Nice to see you to continue chipping away on that project, sometimes they can take quite some time. There is something psychedelic about this one

I'm not making as much music as I used to but when I do nowadays the tracks come out more polished, complete than before. My music now sounds like "sketchy" and more like a final product. But I still got a long way to go when it comes to making melodies and song structure. Thanks fam for the listen and comment.

this has a certain charm to it.. very cool man. would love to hear more like this

I wish I could make a beat like this everyday, I mean I can just open the project now and use the same sound kit but it will be something else in the end. But I feel ya, this type of beat/vibe reveals that I'm an analog 90's guy lol, my music sounds old even though I made this just a couple of months ago.

Man that is so hypnotic and a bit psychedelic, this feels so mesmerizing. I completely vibed with it. I think you are going in the right direction in your search for new energy.

Hey hey Kayos2.. your comment is always the highlight of my day!! Slip n sliding for sure haha.. you know exactly what my intentions are in this track.. I'm tryna be smooth lol

For sure this one is one of my favorite newer mainstream tracks or at least I think it has commercial potential. It might be time to seriously put together an album, I'm almost there but not yet.

For now I will just enjoy this positive feedback you gave me and the love people are showing me here on Looperman before continuing on to the next project.

Nicely named and nicely done. I have the words "scientia est potestas, musica est potestas, utraque est una vox" tattooed on my chest. The 808 bass sound originated in hip hop (and RnB), its just a prominent feature of trap. Id definitely only use certain 808 sounds for Classic hip hop, another set for 2000s, and yet another set for modern. You're not going to find many classic hip hop songs with the long note 808s that are all over trap, such as the cliche at this point spinz 808, or the heavily distorted high attack drill 808s (or even 909s in some drill). The short and bouncy bass hits of hip hop just hit different, literally and figuratively, especially as commonly paired with actual bass guitar. Im glad your striving to evolve, man. Btw did u get the song i sent you? The song from my old band?

Description : Ambient electronic minimal. All synths played by Zoot. Couldn't think of a name when I was saving the project but I was eating a wine gum so that's what it is. So it goes. Music made by a human.

Description : Haven't really been making music lately. This is my first attempt at reconnecting with it in years. Spire VST kept crashing Cubase upon re-opening the project (thus the title). Look forward to getting back to making music I'm proud of (and trying to document what I can of the journey here)

Anyway, I took the idea and expanded on it.
