Description : Sounds of the sea and trippy acidy washes with a cool beat and some live acoustic guitar. Written in Cubase with live guitar and keys etc. The sound of the sea and birds was recorded on the beach where I used to live. After moving to the city one sunny day I was telling stories to a friend about living by the sea and started making this track.

Description : Many of you know well that Tumbleweed & Orlando collabs are pretty much well established tradition within LM society by now, and here is the newest example to reinforce that tradition. It's probably the last this year (yet never take it for granted) and I think it has (although not particularly intended) a bit of that seasonal celebrative nature, thus fitting quite well into this festive feel of December. Despite providing it's share of melancholic tones (you can bet who is responsible...haha...) it's a quite happy tune overall...and it doesn't bite, so you're all most welcome to listen and comment !... As always my sincere thanks to Ed !

Description : The spring is in full motion over here and I guess it helped me quite a bit to complete my part of the job on yet another exciting collab with maestro Tumbleweed. Most of our collab works contain at least some aspect which demonstrates something out of ordinary one or another way. This time we got a peculiar combination of mysticism and merciless attacks of soapiness (my bad....haha)....So let's listen to hear whether I'm right or not!....:) As always on such occasions, all my thanks to Ed !
Description : Hi guys another vocal from me, this time Matthias gave his blessing. It's to his beautiful return track chillout vibe. It's a tribute to my closest here on LM. My voice a few ways including, the balls to do a harmony channel too. There's 30+ shout outs, so listen up, you may here your name. It's community based and some of you play characters. Switch the fucking volume UP, it's a builder. Love the Stokesey and Cyber lines :))) Sorry girls it was a lads love in.

Not quite sure I can say anything of any particular use as a 45th comment. Here goes:
I came across this track by briefly checking out Loopradio.
It's that bass tone that really does it for me (plus the playing). Wish I had that tone to my bass playing. I'd like to use it quite a bit.
I must say that the top layer noise swirling atmospheric effects (what is that?) are far too loud for my tastes. They drown out the percussion, which is also really good. I think they're good but interfere too much. At least on the headphones I'm listening on.
And some of those highest sounds within that atmospheric swirling are too piercing and harsh. No one else appears to have felt the same thing (or maybe they just didn't say it) so perhaps it's just me.
I would say it's also a good mix if it weren't for the one big problem of the overly loud swirling.
Otherwise, it's a classy composition reminiscent of deserts or all sorts of other sunny landscapes. Maybe you recorded this in the outback?
You know, I Instead of listening to this as an analytical musician, I just let the right side of my brain let the sounds just wash over me and enjoy the ride. great work!
I was thinking about all the work it must have taken to program that percussion...but the rest of the music just picked my ears & mind up & carried them along for the ride...and a great ride it was...aside from that its a real tonic to hear some of the compositional inventiveness that goes into a mix like this.....Wicked, wicked bass...love it...another dandy Dave.....Ed
I came searching for another great travel tune to add to my collection and I've found it - EUREKA!!! This is just about as tasty as they get, superb bass, crisp percussion and Steve on the sax. God man, this is fabulous. I'm burning the mp3 to disc as we speak and then running out to the car to put it in the player, hahaha.
You are a rare gift my friend and the world is a better place with your music in it. Bravo maestro.
I hope all is well. A huge thanks for the download :)

Wow, I imagined I was in Africa listening to this, not that I have been there. Love the soprano, sax is one of my favourite instruments, this is fantastic!
This one goes to my iPod with your permission... :)
The mix is brilliant. Bass and Sax meet at the perfect point... This track is so "cinematic" to me, that it reminds me Eric Serra's work in the early days... Awesome job on mixing your percs !!! Very smart overall mixing in fact !
This is Intelligent Art... There's nothing missing in the recipe...
And... WTF ! you both are very skilled musicians !
Playing a bit of sax, and a bit of bass, I can tell these players will rock your ass... !!! :D
Dude this sucks! (Is that mild mannered enough for you?)
No seriously, I had to home in on this as 50 downloads from this site must be some sort of world record. I can see why it's so popular as well. The combination of atmospherics, percussion and slap's always brilliant sax playing have conjured up a big time winner here.
51 downloads and counting!!!

This is gorgeous!! The energy is....wow!!!
Definitely fav'd.
You seem to have captured the essence of your definition of the human zone. The people's voices in the beginning made for the texture of the piece, the tabla beats give for an asian ethnicity, the sax made the contemporary sounds of the west, the bass gave it the groove, and synthesizer really gave it a modern edge. A piece well compiled for the ears of a higher sound. Will definitely be checking out more of your tracks sir.
Awesome bass and sax, favourite for sure
That was the best sax I've had in a long time :-) Always nice to find a track of yours I haven't listened to yet. As usual, the track made for a wonderful listen. Faved

Man, you are an amazing musician..bottom line. The bass performance in this track is epic. and the world drums, tablas and such are a perfect fit. I would put this on par with wome of the Pink Floyd experimentation from the late 70's with a def Jazz anchor. The sax sounds perfect...as a matter of fact everything sounds perfect. Very nice journey you have provided me today Jazz. You are a true master of your craft.
Cheers!
Aww man this is slick. I LOVE the bassline (obviously I would coming from you, sir), and Slap softly over top! Are you playing a fretless? I love the smooth sound of a fretless, the way it has no defining boundries of what the note should be other than the artists movement! And the rhythym section gently carries this through. 4th Fav on LM! OUTSTANDING!
Ken
An other beautiful piece. Thanks. At this time, I've forgotten some appointemants to liten to your productions.
Tomorrow is tomorrow.
this one had my head bobbing,headphones on Rita hottie wondering what the hell I am on this time! just grooving on a little jazzbass baby! she says "Oh OK !" doesn't get any better baby!
Thanks for the music induced smiles !
Johnny Gadget
Great stuff man!smooth and interesting back ground,great flow

G'day Planet
man what can I say about this little gem, man it is amazing, right from the start, it is brilliant...hey everyone has said everything that I could have said about this track, stunning Planet...a amazing piece..instant fav matey, one very talented Aussie guy...Peace...Estefano...
yes this track is a pain killer .. im new to looperman.com & this is the 1st track i listen to over here & i liked :)
GooooooooD JoB
i like this one sounds like it could be on csi. really love the bassline it is literally amazing
wow great job this is like music they play at this place called the beatnik caffe where i live. But really this is nice.
Great composition here and what can I say that hasn't already been said by some extremely talented people from this site. The whole feel of this song is hypnotic, from the percussion to the great sounds of Slap himself. Your bass has that really nice jazz smoothness to it, very Jaco(the man). Quite impressed once again!
Faved and downloaded!!
Wayne
Hi,
What a brilliant track!Couldn't expect less from you and Slap.The bassline sounds great as well as the sax.As for the percussions,it reminded me of Berber music I used to hear when I was a child.Love it!
Cheers
French Kid
Dude you are awesome.. the entire comp is just so relaxed.. the darbouka programing is just simply out there.. great work dude.
This is good, relaxing feel to it, keep working
This is interesting. I love the percussion. Lots of action in this song. You did a really good job arranging this.
Nice, i love the composition! its really jazzy & funky in its own right!
st hot hot hot sax and the drums blew me away, how do you get them so crisp, ace man ace
Great track, I think you sound a lot like Victor Bailey in his Weather Report days ( I've noted this before in a review of one of your other tracks ). Nice one.
i think damanns coils are going out.
slap is a master.
i think you have managed to take what i have always wanted to say with music... and say it.
i was thinking... about life. the feeling you get when you take a deep deeep deeeeep breath. the solidity. the feeling of life.
time and hunger. the mind. it's nagging effect on the conscience.
i really love this dave. this is... incredible.
can i be really real with you?... have you ever tried distortion? i felt that with a track like this. the human zone, despite the synths... i felt that distortion was needed on your dialogue.
thank you either way. i feel more lost than found in reality than ever.
i agree with mr.e tho, a planet slap CD would be pretty sweet. but try some distortion on size one time?
LOVE IT. FAVORITED.
you know, it reminds of the FIRST track i ever heard on looperman, which was Chernobyl. that thing rocked my world after rei's follow the sunset.
anyways, thank you, highly recommended.
Just bouncing around listening when I came upon this GEM!! What a production Great opening which had me hooked for all 5:06 great use of the sound effects throughout this production that really set up the title. The Bass playing was so smooth and excellent. Had to FAV this one because I will be listening to this again!
Filaofsoul
You are mercyless, with that fretless, man everything has been said, two of my fav together, out of this world, this is jammin' on another level, on another planet, this is heaven music, this is the mind speaking not instruments, thanks guys, Peace Love and Freedom to jam.
Going 2 Sasquatch and your going with. Thanks I will be listening to you when I am high high in the mountains.
Dave, this is sounding excellent, though there is one thing that is bugging me in it.
The bass sound you use, maybe it's just my speakers, but hits a combination of ugly frequencies that just create a resonant bass sound, I have to work with it in my bassline all the time in hardcore.
I LOVE the use of ambience, sounds like a plain taking off in the background.
Amazing Track!
Favorite!
-DaMann
Wow I agree with a lot of people, the bass in this one is just sweeet! Love the ethnic backbeats too, and Slap is awesome in the sax as always =) It's very atmospheric without overdoing the ambiance, which I think is what's mostly the problem with a lot of chill out tracks. Another thing I like is that great balance between the staccato rhythm of the drums and the smooth notes of the sax. It's strange, but this track gives me a sense of tranquility, but at the same time a feeling of freedom and a want to dance. I really really enjoyed this!
wicked track man! stuck it in my faves!
chris
Awesome track man. Everything fits perfectly. The production is top-notch. Love the vibe in it. Not much you can say besides "it's a killer track"
planet you have this sound.. i dont know what it is but its like your sound... its like chaos organized into melodic bliss.
i think this could represent how social anarchy can work beautifully.
Hi Dave,
Wanted to come over here and see what was going on in the mind from way across the world. Nice drum sounds/beat. I like the synth type bass sound....like a fretless bass sound to me since I also play bass.
Great Sax playing by Slap too. He makes that instrument just talk!
I am working on a rock tune again with some keyboard input this time. I've had a Korg for years and didn't use it a lot, but now I want to add some variety into my tunes as I am running out of ideas.
So thanks for uploading this tune. I see it as a featured as well, so that is great so others can catch it if they missed its opening debut.
Later and thanks for sharing.
Randy
percussion perffect.....fantastic sounds going on there planet.....Slaps sax is hypnotic as always......your bass work and fx work top notch.......great way to start a day at work.
Well done
Trax
Out-of-this-world! I have heard a lot of top notch stuff here on LM, but nothing that has the sound, composition, and amazing quality of this piece. This must be one of the top tracks on LM.
Another thing worth mentioning - your paintings (avatar) are great.
Can't wait to listen to the rest of your posted music. Amazing!
The desc reminds me of The Jurassic Park films. Namely, Jeff Goldblum's character and 'the chaos theory'. Then it leads me into I Am Legend. And strangely, I'm left thinking that what the world needs now is... Zombies, flesh eating Zombies. Wait, that isn't right. It's love, sweet love. Silly me!
Eh, maybe someone could blend 'em and make it- Sweet Zombie Love. Yeah, there ya go... Someone needs to make a Zombie love story script. That'd be so great, baahahahahaha!
As for the track, it has this kinda cool awaking/being born kinda vibe to it. Falling back on the Jurassic Park thing from above. A baby T-Rex hatching and opening it's eyes for the first time. And there we'd be 1890 African Safari get up and all, with a bag of Reece's Pieces and a tranq gun to entice the thing to come back with us. Interesting vibes mate. Later on!
PS. We the people of... DV?
Would like to request some loopage
from the Guitar/FX master, pwetty pwease!?
Hey P & Slap, awesome track. Always love to hear heavyweights such as yourselves get together on a track, hope to work with both of you. Love the warmth and dare I say it? HUMAN TOUCH that the track provides, awesome, simply awesome. Faved for sure, take care, peace. D
Hi Dave, I really dig the mood you have created in this track, it's totally original! The first thing to strike me after the wonderful intro was your bass playing and the sound it has. Wow man that's a sound... I can imagine a lot of players would love to get that sound. The song sounded full and vibrant before I added the soprano ( a kid didn't turn up for a lesson, so I did it then. That's the beauty of carrying the stuff around with you. You can record anywhere). I really love the atmosphere, so I just played and hopefully left enough space for the track to breath...
Thank you for the invite to play on something so beautiful..
Cheers Slap...
