Dayum haha agree with that, its missing your style of vocals. Could be a new experience this time, who knows. Good selection of loops, seems the connection to make with them. Not sure if I am trippin but I hear a female voice effects at various parts of the track. 2:40 nice one and the return same in reality is a nice surprise. Not sure for adjustments besides some vocal lines. Thanks for sharing. Peace.

Hey again! I always plan to add vocals to these kind of tracks, but end up doing otherwise, maybe because I am not really good at mixing the vocal so it sounds right, or what not, but I need to try it, glad you had a listen :) Hope all is well on your end.

Uplifting groovy chill out with cosmical feeling on it...I miss your brilliant voice (cause this song was made exactly for it...:-) but it stands alone at high standard too...

Respect and hats off, Danke

Thanks for offering your vocal pella. I would love to work on it. If you could send it to bladesplus@cox.net, I will try to do justice to it.

Thanks again,

"I'm crazy, but who isn't now a days right" I feel you there my friend! Loving this atmospheric flow, it sounds awesome! For some reason it's surprising to hear someone use that noise loop so musically...heh. Happy that I found this one to hear, it awesome! Trippy vocal chops, amazing! I love the progression of the sections here, builds pleasantly and enticingly. Lately, I find it really hard to enjoy any music that isn't from my looperfriends, it seems that people around here know music better than almost anyone out there and songs like this prove it! Total fave! Thanks for the DL!

Wow...Really nice! Beautiful voice. Wayne's guitar loop is fine, also.

I think I will send this to Franco and see if he wants to take it further. Would you happen to have a separate vocal track?

Really great performance on the singing, the vocal layering is sweet and I dig the lyrics! I love singer songwriter stuff, a guitar and singer is so honest and exposing to a degree. Great job, glad I could contribute in a small way to this wonderful track.

faved and dl'd, thanks for sharing!

Great track again! Fav'd. Since your voice itself fits perfectly into your tracks, it needs no changing at all. As for constructive criticism, as ValVedriVer said, maybe a bit of reverb would go in nicely here. Top track though, really good.

Kind regards,

Steve

Hey! Yeah I am always iffy on the reverb. I have heard good and bad things. Working out the m/m of vocals is something I am getting the hang of still too though so sometimes I am not sure how much or how little if any etc etc ha.
Im glad you liked it though, thats awesome

Man, that voice! Gets me every time even though I'm expecting it now that I've heard your work. Your voice has so much emotion in every note. You have a real talent with melody, contrast and timing in the way you write melodies and sing them. I'm no vocal expert but I know what sounds good to my ears :)

I'm a fan and I faved!

You have the rare ability to make the same loop interesting for four minutes.

Always love the voice and your layering is great.

And yes, Beardyman is awesome.

You'll get a lot of love for this one and probably a good few collaborations. That's because it's really good and your voice sounds the best I've heard it sound.

Simple, effective guitar chords and the vocal sentiment is good.

My crazy idea won't happen but it's what I'd try to do if I were going to download and work on it.

So, it would be extremely obvious to just add some rock drums, strings, bass etc and you'd have a commercial sort of potentially hit pop song. But it would sound like a whole load of others.

So, as you're just singing over the same loop, I'd make the different verses different genres. So, the obvious pop/rock drums, then drum 'n' bass, then dub/reggae and so on.

That would really be interesting and set it apart from various other songs I've heard that sound similar. So, you and the guitar stay the same but everything/nearly everything else changes every minute or so.

I shouldn't think anyone will actually do it but I can hear in my head how it would work.

Beardyman treat. This one's 20 minutes of excellent, unplanned fun:

Any time I see that you've added your vocals to anything, I have to listen. Generally, two or three times. As per usual, you don't disappoint with this one.

I think with the nature of the song, and the lyrical content, a little heavier reverb on the vocals would be good. It would give that distance to your voice that the lyrics describe. That hollowness, if you will. But, that's just my opinion. Either way, it's a good solid track as it is. Thank you for sharing. It really is our treat.

Take care.

Yeah, you are probably right on the reverb. I am still getting the swing of things as far as how much how little, what fx to use if any and what not. Thanks again for all the support, it's awesome ha, hope all is super on your end.

Fantastic track!! I think when you finish with some vocals it will be one of those you want to listen to again and again.

Can i ask? the main loop you have used is that created by yourself or from one of the other artists? if so could i be cheeky and ask what it is?

I was just listening to this on sc this morning, good to find it here as well. I was telling you that your work with the sounds allows the listen to see things differently, how the composition works for multi reasons and scenes can be replayed. I now wonder when the vocals will added what will one see. Very nice so far tho. Thanks for sharing and keep creating those thoughts. Peace.

Well i'm a bit thick so i don't know what ambivolence means but what i do know is that this intro sounds real nice. You have a good ear for loops as they all work niceley together. A lot of people under rate that talent, but i think it shouldn't be overlooked as it's easy to go wrong and it's also frustratingly long at times.
You must have spent some time searching for ones that fit together and you've done a grand job with this as i liked it from start to finish.
A splendid effort i'd say.
