on What have we done (Team 3 comp collab) by johnnygadget
F YAA...

great perspective!!

people same to forget the soldiers have opinions too.
soldiers end in situations that mat go against their moral fiber.
when i joined the army i had no idea about anything.. i was 18 years old and i had beer in my eyes... my second day of basic Desert shield started... i went was 1 of five in my class to go to korea and miss that all together... years later i look back and realize that i wasn't a soldier i was a mercenary. i didnt see any action in my 5 years but i dont agree with the leaders of my country.
at the time if i would have went to war i wouldn't have been doing for anything other then my paycheck and to stay out of the stockade. i would have killed to keep my squad and myself alive.
a pawn i would have been. ... i would have asked that same question that this song asks.. i feel lucky.. i made a mistake and i didnt have to suffer for it.

i dont think the military is a bad carrier choice but the question i ask anyone that asks me if i think they should join the military is.. do you agree with our government? would you be willing to kill for a politician? would you be willing to die for a cause that may be morally wrong? then the next thing i say is pick a job in the military that pays over 100,000 usd a year in the civilian world get your training do your time get out and enjoy life lol.

sorry um great track

nice responce I agree to the freedom of choice! the problem with the econoomy is that some people do not have a choice or the military seems to be the only logical choice in a shattered economy and they are pushed into a decision that perhaps they are not ready for but by all means there is no turning back once filtered into it! this whole scenario should have been resolved by now and too many soldiers are dying needlessly! this is a sad sad thing with little or no benefit

Great song. Trouble not crying. I spent 9 years in the army. Our men in uniform have a strong place in my heart. Very good song.

Cool intro...who did what parts? I'm gonna have a guess...

Sweenster - Keys and drumbeat
JohnnyGadget - Vocals maybe??
TheHandThatRocksTheDecks - Synths...pads too??

ViciousMonkey, and Cyco...sorry, can't say I've checked out too many of you tracks (to which I reall do apologise).. I can't figure out you guys in this...Anyway...wicked track from all you guys...Looks like this is gonna be tough on the voters...good luck..

you know splish I just told my guys that come up with a track and had them verse and chorus it and told them how i wanted it, then I put the vocals in! Iam not really sure who did what or where!
the only thing i know is they did a great job!
I just came up with the lyrics and sang it!,
and mastered it, they did all the work!

on What have we done (Team 3 comp collab) by johnnygadget
Touchy subject indeed,piano works great mates,lyrics drops in, words taken to heart, the pad is nice and all those layers create a subtle mood. The beat is taken further back in the mix and out of a club perspective it wont work, but I don't think your intention is to play this in clubs? Will work nice with a documentary though. Good work guys.

johnnygadget replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
this was a one off for the competition no club vibe here but i knew i wanted to use a serious topic for the comp after watching the news for a few minutes it was an easy but sad choice!
thank for the review shamus!

What's not to love about this. Great lyrics and music. Good vocals on this. This needs to be the new theme song for Earth Day. I'm greatful that mine isn't the only slightly warped mind on this site. I'm sure that Squirals in heaven now. Love ya Johnny, and God bless,

on lies Feat.Amelia June by johnnygadget
This is fantastic. I got chills when I read that the tract was done before you found the vocal. How is that possible? (eerie music paying in the background) Best of the best. Checked out the links too.

Love it. Absolutely fantastic. Great guitars. The rock works with the house beat. Real neat beat. A nice origional sound. If you guys do something like this for the competition I don't know if anyone could beat you.

on The Squirrel song by johnnygadget
Hey Johnny...been waiting for a new track..it was worth it!....Squirrels though not native to Australia are one of my all time favourite critters...I've met a few in my travels and it's always been a great experience........their even smarter than rats which is saying something...so this tune though sad as it may be to squirrel lovers only emphasizes their plight..I'm sure with the right representation a class action could be bought against the bus company and failing that at the very least a workers compensation claim should be initiated...after all they were going to and from work..gathering nuts and such.....after final summing up in the future litigation...if you could perform this song as a closing statement..I'm sure it would go far in attaining some measure of closure for the involved parties....your humble servant....Witherspoon.F.Planet

Quite dark, with an industrial influence and very cinematic (I've thought in many possible scenes for this track). It seens the other loopermen agree with me... The mood of this track is perfect! Congratulations!

Go to ccmixter.org and chec out there criteria for using the creative commons licensing I think all you have to do is let them know what and where with a link back and they will link from there to your looperman post, It's called attributiion where you give the attributes of origin check out some of my descriptions of the a cappellas I used! this was done as to stay within the guidelines of there material, the lyrics and the vocals are not mine! any questions just shout bro! and thanks for the kudos on the forum post
on my vocals!..........Johnny
