Such a magical track. Love this genre and you have a wonderful handle on it. Awesome drum machine chops. Beautiful sounds and mood created. Best regards, Dan
Kia ora man, you got some great stuff on here, really mean it. Sounds like some shit went down on this site and in your personal life since most of these tracks but gotta say well done and hope to hear more. all the best
Well it's great hearing that you are a father and you are getting your chit together, couldn't be happier to hear that. Looperman was a pretty crazy place back then, fun as hell though.
Hey, we all do crazy, stupid and sometimes dumb as shit stuff growing up but that's what makes us responsible adults. Right? lol
Yea this place (looperman.com) has a way more fostering vibe for sound (uploading orphan tracks that just didn't catch). I will be around. Like, this site, it's amateur enough that you can watch children or 50 year olds fuckin around with loops and "get it" alongside people that have greatness but don't care. The power of music. It's certainly different, but aren't we all?
This is all me looping on ableton, every 16th beat it loops via me stomping on a pedal and I can mutilate the sound realtime however. It's all I have known minus cover bands or some garage/punk/metal/park jamsesh.
Hey dude, where ya been? lol It's Abe, isn't it? You're presence has been sorely missed here. Glad to have you posting some acoustic music, sounds live and crisp. 2 players?
Man I miss live music, going out to see people perform. This helps! Keep posting tracks.
Thank you!! Yea man, I had a kid and lived about 10 years lol
I honestly feel a lot of remorse about looperman.com and the shit I said as an arrogant bully towards sound? I was there and possibly was a catalyst for the wipe that changed this site, and I kinda drifted off after that (got way into jazz and post-rock). But my relationship with the mods and my drug abuse generally made my life a nightmare, but by my misfortune I am about 3 years clean now which is awesome!
hey, really enjoyed this. apart from the composition itself which I liked, you captured a very real sound on that accoustic. could imagine a vocal of some kind, fairly minimal tho. inspiriational too in that I'm yet to have a proper crack at recording my accoustic but this is a call to action.
Hey, it was a pleasant surprise seeing one of your tracks show up on the thread I just started! This one is really quite good! I think the drums and melodies sync up very seamlessly. It seems like you achieved your goal in this one. I'm not a big fan of anime or anything, but this stands well on it's own. You spoke about layering to achieve a solid low end. Lately I've been finding that the more layered I do it, the more muddy the low end becomes. I always like a simple centered mono bass, with a good stereo field for the mids and highs... especially in a song without vocals. Either way, it sounds cool! Good to hear one of your tracks!
Really, alividlife? You hate the track? Well, I'm not into anime but I definitely liked the music. Interesting blend of oriental sounds and scales with western foundation, particularly the drum part. Kept me interested for the entire track, with the changes you introduced. Nice work.
Been far too long since I heard something of yours. It's rare that I use the site nowadays, but I figured I'd take a listen to this.
Absolutely adore the bass, drumwork is fantastic, love the story behind it in the description, kinda reminds me of some of Bonobos work,if it had less swing on it :P
But no, I honestly truly love this track, the massive blend of sound, the atmosphere created..
a v serious approach towards the sphere - i think T and Sun Ra both would get with this - much respect = i very humbly think yr going in a wonderful and energetic direction - evidence as they say
Well, maybe you don't care, but I like it. I guess you have to be happy with your work too :-)
I find it very relaxing, something to mellow out the brain, at least that's what it's doing for me right now. And thanks for the DL cuz that's what it's gonna do for me later too.
