Listen To Bloodletters And Badmen (Instrumental) Heavy Metal Song By Guitarjock At Looperman.com

19th Feb 2010 05:07 - 15 years ago
Description : Hello guys and gals. Here is the last upload that I will be doing for a while. Next week I'm back to my real job. I've had a fun 3 weeks off. I must say that the last week has been the best since I got to try out Ableton Live. This latest track probably beats the crap out of all my other songs. You might like it if your into progressive, epic, or power metal or even old 80s hard rock/metal. This one has guitars, keys, drums, and bass (for once I broke down and played the bass on this one). It's a full production for me. I sure would appreciate anyone who will let me know if anything needs fixing in the mix. Keep rockin Loopermen and women!

Hello BrianMaiden, Your name is like my favorite 80s metal band. Love it! Thanks, I am glad you like the track. Dream theater and Iron Maiden are both my two favorite bands on the planet and I just missed them when they played together here in Arizona a few weeks ago. I could die for having missed the show. I hope you found some loops you could use. I will eventually get around to putting many more up here on the site. This is absolutely the best loops site in the entire world and it's a great community of musicians and artist to boot! Nice to meet you on here. Keep rockin!

Nice. If I understand right, you are not using any loops. Cool. The guitars sound really good together and the beat is nice and simple. Keep up the good work!

Hello SkullG, Yup the only loops I am using are the drum tracks. I sometimes mix in extra beats and sometimes I will "cut" or "warp" the drum loops to may them different and make them fit different parts of my songs. I just recently got Ableton Live and it makes changing the part of the loop you use very easy. Anyway, I am glad you like the track. I hope to put up many more in the near future. I will check some of your stuff as soon as I get the chance, hopefully somtime this weekend. Thanks again and keep rockin!

Nice work man. I don't typically listen to metal but this sounded nice. Rich guitar licks, nice drums, very nice melodies and everything just flows nicely. Not that I want to compare your work with other bands but definitely was up there with the likes of metallica in terms of how the melodies were put together. Keep it up.

Thanks Sein,
I used to spend hours playing Metallica songs back in the late 80s and early 90s. Then for some reason the band started to become annoying. But I was happy with their "Death Magnetic". Anyway, thanks for checking out my track. I would like to say to you, keep making those awesome loops and tunes. You have some really good stuff here on the site.

Did I understand your correctly, you did this in Albleton Live?
Nice work!!!!!
Good track too.
I liked the riff and the phrasing.
Will you be compiling your tracks onto an EP?

guitarjock replied Unknown
Hello Badflavor,
Yes. I used Ableton Live. It's a great recording program and runs very stably on my 5-year old computer. Thanks, I am glad you like the track. I would like to put them on an EP. I keep trying to write songs for vocals, but every time I try to record my vocals, they end up ruining the song. So I sould probably stick to instrumentals. I am planning on recording an instrumental EP though. I am just not sure how long it will be until I complete it. I would like to put at least 10 songs on it. So I have a little work to do. Anyway, thanks for the review. I will be checking out some of your tracks as soon as I get the chance to get back on here, hopefully this weekend.

I think this is a great little piece. With regard to the drums, you might try mixing a different drum track with the existing one. I've use the technique a few times and have enjoyed the result. Awesome piece, looking forward to more.

Thanks for checking it out. I am looking at a couple of different ideas on the drums. I hope to have some more time to work on some loops and tracks again soon. Right now work is going to keep me busier than ever for a while though. I hope to have some new stuff up by this next weekend though. Thanks for the review. I will check some of your tunes out.

This one has that 80's guitar instrumental sound with it - Vinnie Moore, Tony Macalpine, Greg Howe etc - you certainly have that genre down - nice work.
guitarjock
guitarjock replied Unknown
Thanks for checking it out. Yup, I tend to be eternally stuck in the 80s for the most part. I can't help but love that meoldic sound. I mostly had Dream Theater in mind when I wrote this and Rlativity. Somehow that band takes that 80s sound and yet makes it sound modern. I wish I could pull of the sounds like those guys. Thanks for the review.

I love this. It's fantastic. THOUGH!

One thing that did irk me a little is the drums. They don't seem to fit in too well with the rest of the song. Not the rhythm, or the variation for that matter. Everything else has a good amount of reverb on them, why not add a little to the drums to get the sound? :D

Still a fan--Chimpy.

I may give that a shot. I didn't really pay attention to that. What bites is I get so excited about uploading my songs when they are done. I know that I should sit on them for a day or two and check them out again before deciding if the mix has it or not. I need to start practicing that. Thanks for letting me know. I let you know when I get it fixed.

Description : I asked Danke if I could add some vocals to his track Future Machine and he kindly agreed and sent me the track. The lyrics are about a soldiers experience in war as he and his trench mates are told to get up and out of their trench and attack the enemy across open fields. I can only imagine the fear, tension and chaos that goes through one's mind at that moment.

Description : I discovered Meshuggah around 2003 and was blown away by the power, complexity and super Heavy sound of their music. Their "Nothing" album marked the switch to 8 string guitars and pushed Heavy Metal into a whole new territory. My track is a variant cover of their song "Nebulous". I have stayed pretty close to the original but added a few dynamic elements of my own. Its loud, its super heavy and way out there...Beyond Nebulous.

Description : This unconventional metal track is dedicated to Valvedriver https://www.looperman.com/users/profile/841435 though it's not a parody of his fine music or me actively trying to sound like it. I struggled for months with the first few minutes of this track knowing that I must be able to take it somewhere deeper, more psychedelic and powerful. Then I loaded some sampled choir voice instruments, as used in my track Reckful https://www.looperman.com/tracks/detail/160356 and suddenly found myself happily in Valveland - not a place I visit often. Feeling amply Valvedriven and newly inspired, I added the last few minutes fairly easily and very quickly. So: it's a twisting, turning mixture of grunge, menacing ambient, mystical metal and ultra-heavy funk. Instruments: electric guitar+bass, synth basses, female choir voices, one synth pad, some other synths on the nastier side of things and a few programmed heavy acoustic drumkits playing a mixture of triplets and straighter grooves. Interesting thoughts appreciated. Favourite bits? Shit bits? Please listen on good headphones/speakers as there's a lot of heavy bass in this. Now get ready to rock: balls out, hands in the air and with rebellious joy in your heart. Just try not to headbang the hell out of your laptop. Go!

Unfortunately I've had to put my solo work on hold for a bit while I'm recording with the band. We are being professionally recorded now, a very big step up from the last recording of my band that I posted here. Anyways, hope you guys enjoy! We are, Raze The Pyre.
