ImproveWithError

not a fan of new country, but that being said I love classic country, blues, bluegrass and this sort of mudbone sound that just reeks of attitude and hubris. Awesome work and I can't wait to hear the developed product.

This is probably the most traditional Country song I have heard you do Kyle...and you have done an exceptional job of it....its got the story,,...perfect accompaniment (dont add too much to it...but I can hear the room some some strings and maybe a more prominent bass part)..I guess the Loop doesn`t have a lot of country...but this is just a good song, exceptionally well done in any genre..a tip of the hat to you....Check out a site called SongRamp..a lot of country & gospel music and an active songwriters forum...I posted a couple of my instrumental tunes on their free version a while back but realized that aside from the friendships it was not really the place for an old instrumental guy...You have a good song going Kyle and its worth doing whatever you can to take it to the level you want and getting it out there...It would fit right in the "Country" charts....great job...keep on....Ed

Nice - has a Ry Cooder vibe with the slide guitar. Very good pacing - like the way it flows without forcing the tempo. well done.

Wow! I just came across this! I really dig the loosiness of the track. Feels raw, real. That bass provides a lot of punch and drives the heaviness into the song. Great work, always lovin' your stuff :) Btw, your mixing is improving!

real good, reminds me on a tarantino movie soundtrack :-)

In my opinion this is the best stuff. Raw, live human performances, imperfections only add to the beauty of it. My brother has been doing alot like this,(bluesdaddy80) just jamming on his acoustic and singing away. Very cool :D

Dont think like this man
who doesnt hate his voice?
its normal, cuz everyone think their voice are so bad
and they hate their voice
and I truely say
I liked your vocie
and I think your voice is beautiful
Kindest regards

I`m diggin this one big time Kyle...it has a nice loose live feel...and I think that comes from just playing & singing the way you do....actually the production is pretty well done...(I`m listening on my studio headphones ..ATM-M50s)...nice job on the lyrics...I like the deep bass (I go for it often) so don`t tame it too much..You have a style I always enjoy.....well done...hope all is well down your way....Ed

Hi, its great to hear some slide guitar on here.
I only listened to your song with my laptop speakers so no critique from me.
I feel like playing some slide myself now.
Cheers

Sound pretty good, tho vocals are flat in some areas. Production wis every good as well

hello again

I had a chance to listen on better system and I really liked the overall message and your vision.

However, my observation and complain is that there is no realistic separation between instruments (regarding to the arrangement and the actual placing the layers/players within a composition). This happened to me many times when making everything myself so do not worry.
For example: there are uncontrolled frequencies coming from the bass guitar clashing with other layers - especially with middle frequency range of the electric 'rhythm guitar' section. So as a result it sounds as if there were at least 2 different chord progressions played simultaneously but in fact those are only 4 simple chords basically.

Just my opinion. Not sure if the problem is in actual playing or mixing. Maybe both or somewhere in between.

Apart of all that the vocals are cool and I truly appreciate the work you did with songwriting as well as the fact that you performed and mixed everything alone. Didgeridoo teaser was nice as well as stereo illusion on it and I really liked all slide guitar additions throughout.

Greetings, Alex

Nice one! The resonating bass is a really killer one! :)
Btw, thanks for the quality loops you uploaded until now too!

regards, traz

hello

this is very fine and very bluesy. I am listening on poor laptop speakers now so there is not much to say in details.
I really liked what you did with EZ patterns - the slow tempo off beat sort of drumming works nicely. Interesting that you have both acoustic and electric guitars within the same composition - it is quite unusual but it really seem to work. I am going to download your song and will take a listen again later on headphones.

Congratulations on songwriting and production.
Alex

Great recording and production ! The overall feel reminds me alot on REM's song "Drive! ! Excellent!

Hi

Such a lazy feel this - it works very well. Love your vocals and the additonal harmonies. Nice slide acoustic too. Great track. Love it.

Richie

Super slow western acoustic rock with those stunning choruses...first 35 seconds I thought it would be a Bon Jovi cover but fortunatelly not...:-)

Great track Kyle, hats off and handshake, Danke

Musically the song is awesome. (Neil young like). Mixing wise it could use a slightly different touch. The guitars are well panned, but I think there could be a bit more stereo seperation or widening. I agree with static about the kick. (maybe eq the kick by lowering the mid range) I think with the vocals I would double them with a bit of chorus for strength. But as a song this song is beautiful.
Cru

This is done really nicely with lots of good taste....thanks for sharing!

i really eff with this

Hi. This isn't really my type of vocal song but the music is well made and arranged so I'll focus on that instead.

The drums are good and effective but I'm not that keen on your kick drum. Not that big a deal - I'd just swap it out for another. Maybe it's a bit "too rock", just not quite a suitable timbre for this track.

Nice little fading in intro with some harmonic beauty before the gently strummed guitar arrives. Then lead electric work is effective before the first verse. Piano also sounds and I think there's probably also a cello so quite a full arrangement within 20 or so seconds.

Left panning on the hat adds a good stereo spectrum.

The lead guitar breaks work really and then the same sort of playing is sat well behind your vocal. No clash at all. The whole thing seems well mixed. Acoustic guitar well recorded.

Good length and a gentle end with a bit more high string work.

Overall: fine work and my only gripe is with that kick drum. But keep it if you really like it.

Glad you got around to doing this one Kyle...nice job on the lyrics & delivery...love the acoustic accompaniment & the little electric guitar bit work a treat in support...fantastic bit of musical work...fav....Ed

Kyle,
Fav'd. This could be a classic dude! You have a gift with your voice and I can hear you have really been practising that guitar. I am sharing this to my Facebook page if it works from Looperman.
Mark.

P.S. You should be very happy with this one brother.
M.

You always have great stuff, IWE. I like the emotion you carry in your words man. Beautiful piece of art here, no critiques I can offer at the moment.

I smell real music here...very cool and moody track Kyle...the small. lead guitar's harmonies like Frusciante's from RHCP...grilliant...awesome melodies with a bit Tom Petty feeling...hope, it's no problem, I mentioned these names...:-)

Thanx for sharing, instant fav!

Danke
