Listen To Digital Aboriginalism - Osmosis And The Veil Fusion Song By N0mad23 At Looperman.com

This is really great stuff. the sound I never imagined, the sound that forced me to close my eyes listen. God bless

Reading through some of the reviews this track has garnered, I am taken by John Boutilier's notion of a "Sonic Safari". The idea of a hunt for new sounds and textures has a resonance with the search all of us on the Loop are engaged in! This track demonstrates that pursuit. May the quest continue...

A month plus later I drop the review. Haste makes waste lol. I originally heard this one in the first order you suggested. Then in the second order. In my head it's still hard to kinda separate them down to single tracks. I guess that's a good thing as it being a triptych sonically. The first thing that caught me was the Bull Roarer. I have only ever heard this once before. Sad my expertise in ethnic or non westernized culture sounds is Crocodile Dundee. That sound instantly catches my ears. It comes through the mix clearly. Makes me wonder what it sounds like from the players position(360 degrees if Mick Dundee was right). The chants. Theres a huge rush feeling to it. It fuses with the tempo to create that ritualistic vibe. There's also some really cool dropouts of the music that just, when you hear it you kinda feel that rush coming back in. The percussion is awesome. It adds to the visualization alot. Stereo panning that creates that 'Im in the middle of this' feel. It's really something that my little mind can't really put into words to well lol. I've had the higher bitrate playing while I type this and I keep hearing things pop up here and there that are new. Wish I could type as fast as I can hear. It's an awesome piece separately, but becomes something really special when it's combined with it's other parts to make the whole. Now I have a long overdue review for Salook. Cheer's n0mad, and thanks for the higher quality versions. :D

oh my... oh my, oh my, oh my... this is ridiculously cool! it is my sincere wish that everyone in the world get to hear such intensely crafted, beautifully native sounds... every day!

we would be a better species for it! :)

Love it!
Bless!

Well, thank you for taking me on that sonic safari. Love the tribal sounds and the chants. Very creative mix.

I am impressed

So I am back for another pass at this one. I did not realize it was part of a set :) I just finished listening to the other panels and this is just marvelous how you 3 have put all of this together into one comprehensive, cohesive story.

Being the glutton that I am, it would be wonderful to have this trilogy as one long, wonderful track :) Like a giant audio mural painted by 3 different masters.....especially now that I see/hear how all of this is connected (I'm old and slow, so you will have to forgive me).

This one is even better the second time around!

Well done gents.

Digging the updates Sean, always sounds so different hearing it on the loop, still an intense experience, feelings of movement above ones head, ghost like and supernatural the dials are moving up and down on this version the ululations and wailing's giving indications of something trying to enter this world..great mix my man and a pleasure experimenting these realms with you and Avanaco

Cheers.

Awesome, very creative, unique. Sorry for repeating what's been said, but it was my first impression too : it totally puts you into a state of trance!! Can easily picture the fire, the scents, the shaman dancing around you, saying his ritual prayers...
Very visual stuff, wonderfully made with unusual sounds to me, thanks for this high quality sonic moment. Fav'd.

Fantastic! I can always count on your music to take me on an exciting journey without every leaving my livingroom....Thank you for a wonderful trip. I am looking forward to the final collaboration.

[SECOND DRAFT REVIEW - final draft reviews above]

wow....what can I say that hasnt been said already.....nice to hear the bullroarers and all the other tribal elements make this a real visual track
excellent work

Hey Sean,

I'm not sure which I enjoy more, your music or your track descriptions. Both are marvelous and both are an educational opportunity.

This one had to be difficult to mix with so much going on, yet it is crystal clear and everything is just so well placed.

You just keep getting better and better. I believe that is because you constantly look for more - you are a real student of this thing called music. When you discover something, you are more than happy to wrap it up with a bow and share it with all of us - with your descriptions and your music.

You are a treasure my friend. Thanks for all you do, and for this magnificent song. Straight to favorites.

Bravo.

Bear

G'day Sean

Man very nice piece, extremely entertaining listen, did you do vocals for the piece, being an Aussie, doesnt sound like a Aboriginal voice, but very close though,(Maybe in a track like this has change there sound a litle??) loving all the sounds you have put together to make this piece, have to say you are extremely creative when you do your works, they never dissappoint ever, massive piece, instant fav my friend...oh great collab by the way...Massive Fav...Peace n Respect...Estefano...

I had forgotten how utterly creative your works were and are! People have already said it, but this is very trance inducing... in fact I'm finding it hard to type this review... ha ha! You use such creative sounds, you introduce me to sounds I've never heard! The vocals on this one are really something special! Great work my friend!

Yeah.

K.. my thoughts...

Throw the Sine "THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP" on every kick you got trance

But what seperates this track is the "trance"dental properties of human perception. We are absolutely one.

I find it odd, when someone wants to fight me because I flipped him off for him calling me a pussyfaggot. It's like ... well who are you referencing?
I could pull the whole Freudian concept of mother/father relationship, But lets take it further.

To quote "Waking Life", a very difficult poem/movie on life...

I've been thinking also about something you said.

- What's that?

Just about reincarnation and where all the new souls come from over time. Everybody always say that they've been the reincarnation...of Cleopatra or Alexander the Great. I always want to tell them they were probably some dumbfeuck like everybody else. I mean, it's impossible. Think about it? The world population has doubled in the past 10 years, right?
- So if you really believe in that ego thing of one eternal soul,
- Mm-hmm.
then you only have a 1 in 4 chance of your soul being over 150 years old. And for it to be over 120 years old, then it's only one out of six.

-So what are you saying then? Reincarnation doesn't exist... or that we're all young souls like where half of us are first-round humans?

No, no. What I'm trying to say is that somehow I believe...reincarnation is just a-- a poetic expression of what collective memory really is. There was this article by this biochemist that I read not long ago, and he was talking about how when a member of a species is born, it has a billion years of memory to draw on. And this is where we inherit our instincts.

-I like that. It's like there's, um, this whole telepathic thing going on that we’re all a part of, whether we’re conscious of it or not. That would explain why there's all these, you know? seemingly spontaneous, worldwide, innovative leaps in science, in the arts.
You know, like??? the same results poppin' up everywhere independent of each other. Some guy on a computer, he figures something out, and then almost simultaneously, a bunch of other people all over the world figured out the same thing.

- Mm-hmm.

They did this study. They isolated a group of people over time, and they monitored their abilities at crossword puzzles... in relation to the general population. And then they secretly gave them a day-old crossword, one that had already been answered by thousands of other people.

Their scores went up dramatically, like 20-50 percent....
So it's like once the answers are out there, you know?, people can pick up on 'em.

It's like we're all telepathically sharing our experiences.

[NOTE - this and previous reviews are for draft 1]

Truly a dub-tastic swell of organic tribal dub. Totally root's to the core. I really love what you did with those stems. This is a great collaboration. Did you add the delay to the vocals there towards the end? That was spot on man. I really loved the addition of the bull roar and the rattles at the intro.

Hello n0mad!

This is a very strong track, I like how you have managed to link all these "unusual"(bull roarers) sounds,thumb up!
Drums are amazing, these drums reminds me on Drumming Circles,
they are intense!

Really have nothing more to add, track sounds great!Fav'd
Good to see you n0mad, that you're back

Much respect

Alen

I really enjoyed the direction you took this. The slight shading and stylistic movements had me listening with my eyes closed.. letting the vibe create the imagery. Remarkable track bro...

Man when you mentioned the bullroarers..I had no idea to how it was going to sound and I was curious right away...I dig how you picked out specific instruments and sounds from your head that you reckoned would work..then incorporate...well thought about and the additions do work...after listening again here..it really grabbed me this time and put my neck hairs on end..Intro and track outro is amazing..and you have pulled and teased out some wicked sounds...really full on and inducing...and for me it is almost done already..good to know you are still having phun with phasers...man that Bullroarer is making the track very menacing and I like it!!

Thanks turning your hand to this, brilliant job.

Bull roarers? Where did you get those samples? Always liked the Midnight Oil song Bull Roarer. Dang man, it may have been a while that you have created anything but you guys put a pretty interesting track together. The vocal tracks were so effective here and combined with the music I feel like I am in the outback somewhere.

Maybe a litte more bass would be my only suggestion. Some of the percussion has some bass in it but I want to hear more, I guess being a bass player makes that something I want to hear louder. Maybe a cool sub bass track, in the background filling up the low freqs. Other than that Sean this is a great track

Will wait to dl the final product but I'm gonna fav this now knowing it is only gonna get better the more you fiddle with it.

Great job so far, can't wait to hear the final product!
