Description : Alright yall 1, I'm extending another invite to remix or complete a track I've started. Looperites unite (LC=Looperman Collab)!

Alright yall 2, this is a super old track that I did on my keyboard way back in 2000 (this would be the first track I ever recorded with an instrument). This is an edited version that I used Magix 05 to improve (I also dropped the additional song channels that I felt clashed). Lengthwise, it falls perfectly @ 6:52 and really only needs some tweekin to be considered finished (note how for once I skip adding any drums/percussion). As before, if ya do decide to mess with this I'd absolutely luv to hear whatcha come up with. Later on all!

*PS check out JohnnyGadget's version, Viento De La Montana.

Hey DV, I think I reviewed this one the last time I lived at the Loop. I still get the same emotions today as I listen to it. With all of the stuff we have to work with - virtual instruments, fx, automation, loops, etc. it is nice to hear a piece that was played on the instrument in front of you.

There is something about the intimacy one can achieve using one single instrument to make a track. This piece shows that. Thanks for sharing a special moment in time.

Beautifully done.

I can't recall Bar, it was so long ago. This was done in my relative infancy with music. Didn't know much about programing & looping. I also didn't know any musicians that were into the same styles as me. All I had was they keyboard & the one soundfont (it was also recored at around 5am too). In that moment I was out on my front porch sitting on an in-table using the arms of an Adirondack chair as my stand with old clunky Koss headphones to drown out the sound). Took me about maybe 2 hours of tinkering and around 3 takes to get it the way it sounds now. Glad ya dug it. Later on!

Great background music for writing. Definitely brings out the pensive side of me, at least, and that's usually positive towards creativity.

Well DOne

Nice track Donnie, pleasure to listen to. Puts you in a certain mood right from the begining, relaxed. It's nice to hear simply produced tracks carry their musical weight in gold. Nice stuff!!

Sorry bout the delay mate (was mad busy with school stuff). As for the track, back then the keyboard was all I had. So I would spend countless hours just foolin around with it. And one early morning when I had been tinkerin with it for a little this melody started coming together. Glad ya dug it. Later on!

This is very 1969 in a way..but they didn't have synthesizers that could make these sounds back then! lol.I guess it's that ephemeral hippy trippy vibe I'm getting..swinging glass beads and all that.....great stuff!..if you ever perform this,granny glasses and a ponytail are the uniform of the day...cool! cheers mate :)

DonnieVyros replied Unknown
Cooool! I dunno mate, they could have, because I read that back then (in the infancy of electronica) there was a division. Between actual musicians and scientific computer nerds. On either side you had alotta experimentation going on with sounds. Off hand, I couldn't pinpoint the exact year the soundfont I used was created, but I'm sure that it's creation came about via those experimental years.
As for performances, I'm going to try to keep my shows mostly PG (PG-13 at times & R if I do Rap stuff). So all are welcome in my eyes. Lates mate!

Yeah, Splish-splash. It was all from the PSR. At my skill level I usually only play with 1 hand, but this was an attempt at using 2 (used my left for only doing basic chords mostly). I'm glad ya dug it. Buuuut, being a drum junky I prolly wouldn't've favorited it. T/L&R!

alright mate cool track. can't believe you played that. i don't suppose by any chance you have a midi file for this because i would love to do a trance remix of it. i think the feel is perfect for a trancer. hit is back if your up for it. cheers

Naw man, I'm sorry to say that I don't. This was recorded in a somewhat 'old-skool' manner (first on the Yamaha via it's internal memory and then to my PC via a ghetto-fab audio connection with Magix for the prog/mixer). It'd be nice if I could accomodate ya because I think a trance take would be pretty kik arse. L&R dood!

Description : the other end of the scale from me, yep people, this is a ballad. its for all the people who have lost somebody long before their time was due,
i used my experience of tragic loss and how i hid my mental health issues that stemmed from it while writing it, its repetitive but has fresh verses
its to Matthias music Du Bist Nicht Mehr Hier almost the same title, He has suffered too that's why he wrote the music and dedicated it to his brother. i hope i have done it justice

Description : Working with DarkKZ by Beatskillz, Synthmaster 2.9, Waves Bass Fingers, Microtonic drum synth, Izotope nectar 3 elements, Ozone 8 Elements & several other plugings I'm trying for the first time. The vocal samples are from Ghosthack, LANDR & Sampleswap. Hope you like it. Cheers.
Post script: The word "Ambient" has come up several times in the comment section for this, so I switched the genre to that. Thanks for the input. I really appreciate it.

Description : Ambient, psychedelic chill out rock or something or rather. Lyrics, vocals, guitars and keyboards myself. One drum loop used (free Loopmasters ambient pack). If you want a bit of a back story on the words check the lyric page.

Description : I made this with Garageband and was inspired by Anime music, such as Naruto. And if you noticed one little part is very similar to one of the melodies.

Description : EDIT: I adjusted the ending as per Paperkup's suggestion. I like it better. Maybe you will too.

The realization, and inevitable acceptance that the last ember of life is smouldering into obscurity. Then finally, and peacefully, exhaling the final breath of life.
This is a dark ambient track that will go between two of my other tracks. A good pair of headphones/earbuds are highly suggested for this one.

Opinions and criticisms are welcome. Enjoy, and take care. V.

Description : Depression and sadness can sometimes serve as motivation for creativity as in the case of this track. A few months back I went through a period of loosing a few friends and co-workers. Attended a few funerals and as a result found myself reflecting on life. One night I had the urge to try to transfer my feelings into music and this is what came out. Some baratone guitar accompanied by synth and accapella.
Final EDIT: Further tweaking on levels and a slight change up in the timimg of the choir section.

Description : I intentionally made this song minimalistic. The drums I spliced together from some drum loops I had, there's one other loop in the mix, the rest of the instruments are played by me (bass and synths). I used the excellent (and free) Cakewalk z3ta+ vst and the BBC Symphony vst. My intention was to create a very simple and dream like ambient track. Feel free to download or comment. Feedback is always welcome. Thanks.

Description : Hello,
this is a track between composition and cover.
Amandine (Sova Berry or Dine on soundcloud) made a cover of the a cappella "Song of Sophia" by Dead Can Dance.
I liked it very much, so i decided to make an instrumental with her vocals.
Hope you'll like it and if you want to comment, you are welcome, whatever you think.
Bye
