Hi there Butcher,

I agree as to where this belongs...in a movie, but it is pretty simular to ones already out there years ago.
The gun shots...I felt I had to add them in to end the song.

Glad you liked it and I appreciate your comments.
Randy

Hi there Helix,

Man you guys are fast! I no more than get it uploaded and already 5-6 reviews! I am glad you liked the tune. I wasn't sure how it would go over as it's so different from the regular music on here.

Anyways, thanks for you nice comments. Much appreciated.
Randy

Hello Lofthouse,

Thanks for your kind review. I do Country, Blues and Rock as I like all 3 genre. Probably would be better if I stuck to one, but I grew up in the 60-70's era and I like all that music.

Thanks again,
Randy

Hi Neil,

Strange...as I just wrote you an E-mail too.

Anyways, thanks for your review of my latest rock venture. I enjoy these type of tunes that you don't hear anywhere else. Hard not to copy someone else.

So I appreciate all your kind words and taking the time to review mine. Now....I shall go directly to your page and see what you have since today is review day. Yours will be the 15th review today. :-)

Thanks again,
Randy

Hi there Sky,

I thank you for reviewing this tune and I appreciate your comments very much.
I guess I am just going thru a rock phase now.

I love bass and drums as if they sound good, they can make the song.

If you'd like to hear my 'Guitar Heros' song remixed with vocals recently, please go to Warrior777 on here and play the only track available.

The gal is from Washington State and does a decent job...sounding some like Grace Slick.

The vocals were too loud the first time thru and then everything got panned to the left, so I think she got it straightened out pretty well. She does a nice job with it.

Your welcome to try and put vocals to my tunes as well.
Since a good share of my tunes in this genre are loop based, (As noted in different songs I do) I can't easily change anything from here.
I just put them togetrher like a puzzle.

Thanks again for listening...I will review some more of your material and give feedback......right now I am running behind. :)

Randy

Hi Again Wookie,

Thanks for reviewing this tune as well. I appreciate your comments. Unfortunately, you only have 1 song loaded up so I can't review any others...so please make more.

Randy

Hello Wookie,

Sorry I am a little slow in replying to your review. After I write this I will check out some of your tunes and give a review.

I appreciate your review, and yes....there are a lot of good musicians on here. Some are even teachers of music. Many have played in their own band for years as I used to. And so you will find quite a variety of musicianship here.

Thanks again,
Randy

Hello there,

Thanks for reviewing yet another one of my tunes. I appreciate your comments very much and will review some of your songs in kind.

I am glad you enjoyed the song.

Randy

Thanx Toxicx,

I appreciate your review and comments.
I'll check out your music as well and give a review back.

Randy

Hi pappathorpe,

Thanks for checking out the christmas tune.
I'll be reviewing one of your tunes in abit today.

Thanks,

Randy

Hello there Dsam.

Haven't seen you review one of my tunes before, so I welcome you to my corner of the world. I see by your profile that you are a long ways from me in NY.

I appreciate your kind comments very much and will review one of your tunes back.
Thank you sir!

Randy

Hello Lorin,

I appreciate your stopping by and listening/reviewing this tune. I use Pro Tools 8.0. With all the tools it has available, I am able to get the sounds I hear in my head.
I also Master every song before I release it as well.
I usually use recorded live drums from www.betamonkeymusic.com

Most all my latest songs have a bigger sound to them and 'feel good' according to the many nice reviews I keep getting.

It's not a matter of playing just one guitar in a track, you have to make layers of sound....like record the same rhythm track twice...once panned hard left, and then record again panned hard right.

You can't just copy-n-paste from one track to another as it won't work.

Anyways, that's how I make music. Partly from loops, and partly from my own playing.
I have the firewire Mbox2 Pro and use an external drive for audio only, and a DEll XPS laptop.

So anyways, I thank you again and I will review some of your material as well and give a review back. Thanks!
Randy

Hello there Scott,

Thanks for your kind review and listening to my latest tune. I appreciate all your comments. I will check out your tunes as well and give a review back shortly.

If you by chance also listened to 'Guitar Heros' which I did awhile back, I have a lady friend in Maryland that has written lyrics to it now and sings on the remix. It will be called 'Freak Zone'.
She sounds somewhat like Grace Slick from 'The Jefferson Airplane'....from back in the 60's.
I will be posting that probably much later today or tomorrow.

Vocals really help a lot as I don't sing myself.
As far as being on the radio, if you have songs you want played on the new internet radio at www.talenttrove.com , just sign up and check the forum on how to put your song up.
They are now teamed up with iTunes as well...which is a first! I've gotta do that next.

Thanks again,
Randy

Hello Filaosoul,

Just happened to be online checking my mail when your review came in.
In case you may be wondering, this tune didn't get many reviews just because I held it back from the featured part because I didn't want it to get overexposed too early.

Anyways, I appreciate your listen and review of this tune. I am glad you liked it. No...have to wait another year for Christmas I am afraid. ;-)))

Thanks again,
Randy

Hello Duktape76,

Thank you as well for your kind comments. They are very much appreciated. I always strive for quality, not quantity.

I'll catch up with you perhaps tomorrow as I am off work and can do more reviewing.

Randy

Hi there mandarrosa,

I appreciate you stopping by and listening to my latest tune. I love that crunch as well. It's the heart of rock I feel.

Thanks again and will check your work as well.
Randy

Hello there Scriptique,

Thanks lot for your review . When I said 'off beat', I meant for me to do this type of song....not that the tune was out of time. :-)

I am glad you liked it. It is the first tune of this type I have ever done. I appreciate your nice comments and am happy you enjoyed it a lot.

I already reviewed one of your songs earlier in return, and left you feedback.

Thanks again,
Randy

Hello Lowblow,

Thanks for reviewing my tune. I will return the favor and check out yours.

Thanks for your kind works.

Randy

Hi there Helix,

Hey...I certainly want to thank you for your nice review. Yeah...that Beatles image is still fresh as yesterday in my mind. If I ever get Dementia, I hope this will still stay as a lasting memory. Ha!

As for this tune, I liked the heavy guitar part a lot. It is hard to get that good crunch sound, a lot of EQing, and compression going on.

The solo parts weren't blazingly fast so that helped in getting a clearer sound.

Drums, Ahhh....I love good sounding drums. I use live recorded drums from (as opposed to synth generated drums) www.betamonkeymusic.com
I usually get them at 24 bit as they really sound good and then lose a little bit when 'bouncing to disk' to 16 bit.

Thanks again for for comments and am glad you enjoyed this tune.
Randy

Hi ya WhiteSands,

Thanks a lot for reviewing this tune. I already left you feedback yesterday of one of your tunes.

I appreciate your kind words, and perhaps we can do a collab someday. At the moment, I am working alot and don't get things done as much as I should.

Thanks again for the review.
Randy

Hi there Holly,

The queen of Looperman with your beautiful voice.
I appreciate you coming by and listening to this tune. I hadn't seen you here reviewing to any of my tracks before that I recall, as I remember names pretty well...so welcome!

I like all your songs that I have heard. You have a clear distinct voice and you should do a song and enter it into The John Lennon song writing contest.

They have many different cash prizes and givaways as in equipment. They have contest going on througout the year. Here is the link: http://www.jlsc.com/

As for your friend, feel free to send this song to him.

Thanks again,

Randy

Hello Daniel,

I appreciate your comments and am glad you liked the tune. Playing it several times with a decent stereo system makes a big difference in what you'll hear as compared to little computer speakers.

Thanks for listening.

Randy

Ahhhh Rei,

Hey man, thanks for checking out my latest. Guess I have a way of sucking folks in eh? hee hee.

Start out soft so you'll turn up your speakers...and then 'bam' as you say.

Your very right, people don't have to do blazing fast leads in order to make a nice song. The right notes at the right time works the best.
I keep wondering how to better myself with each new passing tune...but its hard.

Thanks again for your review.
Randy

Hi ya herozero92,

Thanks for stopping by and giving a listen to my latest.

No, I don't make loops myself, altho I could easy enough I suppose, and then use them later in different songs. I get my loops from many various sites around the Internet, and usually pay between $20-100+ for them in CD sets.
I recall last year I got an 8 CD set from England.
Totally all loops of many different instruments.

I strive for quality and I prefer 24 bit .wav files to work with. Perhaps an expensive hobby...but you can listen to the results of most all my songs and ask yourself...is it worth it?

Thanks for your comments, I appreciate them,

Randy
