Everything you hear is all me, man. I don't really do samples or loops. It makes me feel limited, so all the patterns you hear is from scratch. Thank you!
OOH I like this! The pianos had me hooked and the rest just flowed along with the same vibe. I think I ascended to a different plane a little bit when the bass kicked in.
Thanks man! I appreciate it. Believe it or not, the piano in the beginning and end were actual last minute additions. I almost didn't have them. As for the bass, I made sure it was fat and rich. I'm really happy with this track. Cheers!
Hi, GoldenOokami. This is a very promising track. You've clearly got good keyboard chops and you definitely know how to use the mod wheel and pitch bend well.
Since this is a "beta" version, I'm going to give you my two cents worth on the track. The guitar solo section was a lot better than I can do, but it still sounded like it was being played on a keyboard in many places.
Getting a convincing replication of a guitar using keyboard is really difficult. The best versions I've ever heard come from alternate controllers like the Roli Seaboard Rise. But I think they really hard to master.
I actually thought the guitar solo might be better using a synth patch, similar to the Steve Winwood sound. It really reminded me of his stuff.
My next favourite was the piano solo section. In both the guitar and piano solos, I thought you started out really nicely, but I felt that things started to wander off after a while in each solo. You do a good job of using silence in your solos, but I think more structure and a bit more discipline in your improvisation would really improve things even more. I'm a big believer in "less is more".
I'd also suggest that you experiment with some different bass patches. I thought the bass you used had too much attack transients and not enough sustain on the notes for this type of track. Or, perhaps layer in a second bass patch that doesn't have such a sharp attack and more sustain (e.g. a sampled acoustic bass patch). Or perhaps a synth-generated patch based on a sine wave setting on the OSC. I suspect that when you add vocals to the track, the bass will need to be toned down in any case, so that it isn't competing for attention with the vocals.
So, for what it's worth, those are my comments. I definitely enjoyed the track. Wish I could play jazz like that. I'd definitely be interested hearing it with vocals added.
GoldenOokami, this is going to be a great piece of work when you finish it. Already as a Beta you can tell that a lot of skill is all in it. Love the solo, the piano play, the bass. Please finish this and post it here for all to enjoy. Thanks
I'm very grateful for your comment. I do appreciate your words. Each solo was interesting to me. I'm a keys player, and I was trying not to play each solo like a keys player, yknow? It was a challenge, but I had fun! Thanks again!
everything is perfect on this track, a bit like summing up your career so far...the best from your lab for sure, though I'm not an expert neither electro nor future bass...
fantastic journey on those synth tunes...can't believe you made it til cca 6 hours...
I appreciate your words, Danke. It's always great to see anything from an important member of Looperman here. I was fortunate to get inspiration when I did. Everything came together smoothly on here. Cheers, and best wishes!

Much of my comments are subjective, of course.
