Aaah Detlef...you are the true musical entity and it's always a pleasure to collaborate with you,your sensibilities encompass a huge sphere of perception and bring to light many hidden nuances of the musical world....we indeed do breathe the same air my friend.
cheers Dave :)
Your onset, is rare here at this time, but when you come in, it's pure magic.
A musical good time here with this piece of great beauty.
Sound, and mixing enables us to follow you on this path .... and share This musical moment....
Congratulations to the participants, and thank you for this moment of reflection .... I particularly appreciate.
Hey Dan..thanks man!...it is such a pleasure hearing that you like this track,as I know your right into the atmospheric side of things and feel the ephemeral spaces acutely....thank you for your wonderful review from Detlef and myself.
cheers Dave
Hey Jamie...thanks man,it's always gratifying to get the thumbs up from a super musician like yourself..your going to have to swing that 335 into a big collab with us soon....I hope the Olympics have treated you kindly (bloody excellent job you Brits did as well!..my only regret is I didn't have cable tv! lol)....thanks again from Detlef and myself.
cheers Dave
Hi Dave
Totally loving everything about this beautifully textured atmospheric creation you and Zappo have conjured up, real magical performances from you both.
The production and mix is splendid and the playing is just sublime.
This partnership is a true blessing as you two create some awesome music as a team. The question now is what to do with it? I suggest you look up Sentric music on the web as this lot are looking for music for commercials and film etc.. This is right up that alley...
Hey Steve..thanks man!..sometimes I think about this very subject,what to do with it!..the music that is,and film has always seemed an avenue I'd like to explore..I know I've got the music in me(though a crash course in the fundamental philosophical tenets of Classical music wouldn't hurt either! lol).......man I'm just happy that I've got guys like you and Detleft(zappo)around me to keep me sane and give me inspiration......thanks buddy,I'll definitely have a look at Sentric....cheers mate,you have no idea how much you've helped me musically over the last four years. Dave
Hey PJB, this is my first time leaving a review for you. I want to make sure that this is a good one. Love the musical fusion and the instrumentation throughout the record. Love how every sound blends in together and the arrangement is spot on. Outstanding work, sir. You have a standing ovation from me.
Hey there mate..thanks very much for your very kind review,it is greatly appreciated and makes the music all that more enjoyable to make and share....thank you again!
cheers Dave :)
Wow, I imagined I was in Africa listening to this, not that I have been there. Love the soprano, sax is one of my favourite instruments, this is fantastic!
Mate this is one very relaxing and chillout piece, loving the guitar, have to agree with other comments, does give it a Spanish vibe, which is very enjoyable on the ears,very smooth sound to it, something you could poss here in a cafe etc, one stunning piece of work, if still had FAV button would hit it straight away when it started...totally digging it...Peace Mos....
Hey Esti.....thanks man,I have to remember you've changed your name now! haha (well actually your one of the few people that can do it without having to break the new one in! lol)...cheers mate,much appreciated Dave :)
Some first class music from looperman classiest artists. This is an enjoyable piece of music right here. I imagine myself chilling out at a jazz lounge while sipping on a stiff cocktail. Yeah that's the ticket. Great track Planet, you knocked it out the park with this one.
Hey DJC..thank you very much!though I doubt many would share your view..I wear my hat the right way round! lol..much appreciated all the same!.. cheers Dave :)
This is absolutely Smooooth! Brilliant! So much technique yet so relaxing and not so demanding on the ear which yields a perfect musical balance. I love this piece Dave!
Nicely done Dave. Just as skilled on six small strings as you are on 4 fat ones, haha. I have to say this was a bit like having Thomas Dutronc on the nylon. Absolutely stellar work. As good as your six string work is, I still love to focus on your bass work. Smooth, smooth, smooth.
This was a wonderful way to start my day, a great cup of coffee and an even better song. Thanks for that. I hope all is well.
Damn,sorry for the late reply mate...thank you very much Bear!...I just managed to crack my index finger's guitar pick nail(that I cultivate,seeing as I hate plectrums...damn! lol)..now I have to grow it again!(double damn) cheers Dave :)
This is a first for me...commenting twice on a tune! But, it popped up as a featured track on my page, and so I had to listen (though I've already listened to it so many times I can't even number...it's just that GOOD)....the playfulness at the end among you guys is priceless!! You guys should form a unit and get your bad-asses up on the Montreaux Jazz Festival stage! TRUTH!
Mate impressed, firstly you doing Jazz, but more so the brilliance of this piece, absolute pleasure to the ears, everything sounding so good with in the piece, you can tell this is a good piece of work with the members you have collab'd with, all 3 of you great muso's,slap with Sax, is a stand out for me, man is briiliant on the sax,really admire what he does, nothing much more to say on this one my friend, but been a pleasure to listen to this one...great work by all involved...Peace...elsd....
ah some jazz from the planet himself... nice collaboration!!! i can always count on you to do it up just right... the "cup of tea" you put in is the icing on the cake... great job on the arrangement... cross this one off your "bucket list"!!! i bow down to your greatness, neil
Hey me old mate the Station Wagon..thanks for dropping by man,very much appreciated..I actually saw a Pontiac wagon the other day...friggin huge,took up half the road!lol cheers mate Dave :)
The PLANET is ALIVE !! Looking for some new Jazz release's took me 6 pages in to find this Great Jazz Composition. Man you are working that fret-less bass to perfection. Zappo and Slap were also outstanding in their contributions to this tune. Luv the Drums. Jazz as Jazz should be!! with a great ending. Fila
Hey Fila,thanks man!...good to see there's still a few dudes around that like a little Jazz now and then!lol..cheers mate and thank you very much for the cool review! Dave :)
As one who loves drums and percussion I have to tell you this is a magic sound on the kit. Great live feel to it and anything resembling a real musician on a real kit works for me. This is dynamite. That tympani thing is very clever too - adds so much. OK enough on the drums. Super bass lines - we should get a band together! Sax is superb, the piano is lovely and the organ just perfect. It's all just very well synthesised and works at every level. This is very classy stuff and a joy to listen to. Thank you.
Hey Richie thanks man!...actually I was sort of taking a leaf out of your book.I have EZDrummer/SuperiorDrummer which I used here..definitely worth getting back into them to get that 'real' drum sound..I'd been using Stylus RMX a lot which is great but doesn't have that real stick on skin sound (not that any drums have skins on them now! lol).....Amazingly we are in the same country! lol..so anything is possible...God can you imagine how cool it would be if many of Looperman's muso's lived in the same city..damn we could get one hot unit together!...always a pleasure to have you stop by mate!..cheers from Zap,Slap and Dave (sounds like that terrible 70's band!lol) :)
Great musical journey. A very special dream. Perfect the three, a super collaboration. You really know how to make my ears perceive perfectly all instruments in its true magnitude. It's music.
NOw...this is jazz I can getinto in a big way...I`ve gone to a few jazz clubs in the past & couldn`t quite get into the head-nodding going on around me as it was the traditional kind of stuff that has always sounded to me like everybody was playing a different tune (I`m thick that way)...This is THE music...and big talent comes with every player in the band....Slap is deadly...and love the work on that fretless (did Iget that right) Dave....keys fill the bill exactly right...man this is top notch stuff guys...I`m in awe...Do some more...I`ll be downloading for more listens (thanks).......Ed
Hey Ed thanks man!....I felt that way about Trad Jazz that my dad used to play (though I like it now,but wouldn't try and play it,not my scene)...yep that's my fretless,I always wanted the Jaco sound(what bass player didn't),but you can only get that sound with an epoxy covered fingerboard and since I've had this bass which has a natural ebony board untreated I much prefer it's sound,more woody and a lower growl....plus why emulate when you can go your own way..oh dear I've started to gear talk..I'm hopeless,I could go on and on and bore everyone to sleep...thanks again mate! cheers Zap,Slap and Dave :)
I like this very form "improvisation" you have here with the nuances of each instrument.
Unity is strength, and this is proof here.
A good time jazz, and thank you for sharing this moment ....
Compliments to you three ....
Hey Dan..thanks mate!..it's always good to play with these two guys,you just walk into the room and start jamming,even though we're separated by thousands of kilometres/miles! lol
cheers Dave :)
