Hey Wayne, sorry for the delay to respond - maddeningly, the trials of life gets in the way, worse for them thar wee bees.
Thank you for taking the time to review. I am very pleased by your words.
Lord love a swan! I should mark your stuff as faves. I should download some of them I should decide if Bud Light is more filling or less taste or whatever. I like it! Nice hammer job.
I like this, for some reason I feel it as opening credits for an action film, some crazy opening credits- like some ex hitman that has retired an now lives in some back swamp bayou, kinda the calm before the storm, when he gets pushed too far and then the body count starts racking up. Great fushion of the slide guitar type stuff and beat work. It's got an original charm to it, very cool my friend!
Thought i'd have a listen while i was here, nice groove, some nutty key work also, you defo got your own signature to the music you make, cheeky ending aswell lol.
Cheeky...LOL LOL, you sir have made my day, nay, my whole week. Thank you very much for the review, it pleases me greatly that someone saw that and understood :D
The title to this song made me laugh. Id hate to know any more information lol. But yeah. I like this song. The vocal samples were great. I like the old school vibe this has and the guitar. Good job on this one.
Thank you for the review. Sorry for the delay to reply - the m/board on my computer fried - a whole week without looperman...not something I want to experiance again.
This instrumental is amazing. I could hear this in a movie or tv show or something. the beginning sounded like it would be a killer beginning of a crunk track or hip hop joint. somebody should sample it. it would be a hit. good work friend
haha, thats a very funny Track. ding ding da ding boom boom.
I think you got a good jamsession with it - or not? *lol*
This thing is so crazy - now one of my favs!
Thank you for taking the time to review my track. I am always impressed and influenced by your work and getting a review from an excellent contributer such as yourself is doing wonders for my ego - I hope my head will fit through the door.
lol
thanks again.
weird stuff here definatly like the drums the guitar make it almost a 70s rock song! and some of the vocals samples remind of the bangles or somthing haha! kinda short but i do that somtimes myself, until they evlove more if they do, somtimes the just sit and never do anything!
Thank you for the review. I'm starting to think that weird is becoming synonimus (forgive spelling error please ) with my tracks - If I was normal I would be worried, but I'm not...I think.
I agree with everybody else. I like the smoothness of the seams and the weirdness of it all, I'll be saving this one for future reference. Look out grandma!
I like it! Sounds more like blues to me, however. Noodling sound is good, matey. Arrr.Very clean and uncluttered. But growly. I may have to try this download thingy, after I finish my Lawrence Welk compilation disk.
A really fun track - motivates movement, and I'm a sucker for anything that makes me want to dance. And those synth loops are damned HAPPY sounding that I have to grin as I bop along to it! I actually found myself remembering how much I liked the early Men Without Hats tunes on my first play of this (weren't they a Toronto band?)
This would be brilliant if you polished it a bit more. But you're absolutely right, if you're not having fun, what's the ##### point. Keep having fun and making such fun music!
4th play - added to may faved list. Dude, I so dig your bass work on this! This is great stuff!
Wow, thanks dude, great review. I'm very pleased that you enjoyed it.
Usually when I play bass, I kinda overdo it a bit, but for some reason when I plug in to record, I make a concerted effort to be tasty, and, bring a support concept to the track - sometimes it's difficult when having lived the life on stage and so used to being the center of attention...but I digress ( as usual {sigh} )...
Men without Hats...trying to remember...I may be confusing them with another Kanuckistan group from Quebec... Did they do Saftey Dance ?
Walking away from a project and letting it gestate is often the very best thing you can do. I've found that behind my own resistance (inc. getting pissed off at a project) usually means it's going to be one of my better works if I follow through.
BeyondEvolution's right - the beginning synth is great, and the rhythm really is engaging. This is happening, and hopefully you'll find what to do with it next. Seriously, this is worth going back to, without a doubt.
Because of your words ( and BeyondEvolution's), I will have another look at it....Wait...I just had a thought, I think when I was finishing it up ( after a couple of vodka's ) I was clean out of ideas to add to it - I think that may be what ticked me off and banished it to the ether (Looperman) ... hhmmm.. food for thought - I also wonder if the Vodka had anything to do with it... it never did that before...{gasp}
Thank you for taking the time to post your very helpful review.
The cut to piano at ~0:50 is a bit abrupt; I feel like some very light reverby echoes from the previous voices might carry it a bit. The piano is beautiful, and that running flute... great.
At ~2:10, I think the strings you're bringing in take it in a different direction than I was expecting. I was hoping for really loud booming timpani to come in two/four measures before doing that 1-5-1 thing they do.
My imagining cuts it to some sort of wailing guitar fusion piece, but just about anything high energy would work. High strings, a huge brass part, or something with a lot of umph. Also, cymbal crashes.
Sweet track. I hope you make it longer eventually.
Thank you for listening to my track. You've got great ideas for it's improvement - one's I haven't even considered - well done.
I wish I had more time to augment it. You see, working on a new track fires me up with enthusiasim, motivation, and the fun of creation. Working on an old track is like "do I hafta ?" like bring home work from my profession.
High praise for the sonic clarity. Definitely up there with the room space for the discreteness of instrument placement; seems to be a feature of all your tracks - ie., nice work, KIU (keep it up), homey from Kanuckistan, Cheers!
Kanuckistan...LOL. First time I heard that, for some reason I like it.
Thank you for taking the time to listen and review my...err...perhaps I should say engineering. I have limited resources, including time, but it is great to get away from the daily b.s. and cavort about with music.
Some of these loops seem a lil familiar..but who knows. This track rocked!! Loved the drumbeat and the guitar was fitted perfectly into this track. There may be a couple of spots that could use a lil tweaking here and there, but nothing major. This is a solid track..well done!
Thank you for the review. The synth loops are from Sterixx, there is a guitar track from Looperman but sadly I do not remember from who. The base is me (woooot first time using the lightsnake) and the drums I prog'd myself.
Oh yes definitly some spots can use tweaking, unfortunatly I lack finesse, patience and the time to make it more presentable, my primary motivation is the fun of it. Most of my tracks are a little rough around the edges - it seems I put more thought into naming the tracks than engineering :) Anyhow, thank you for the review.
Sweet track.loved the bass and guitar work.similar style to the group Justice.loved the Sterixx loops.i've download alot of his same loops,just havent had a chance to make anything with them yet.lol.anyhoo-Great track }:)-
I have not heard of Justice - I must check them out.
Sterixx is a prolific creator, top notch stuff.
Thank you for your review - I had a great time doing it.
Wow, thank you C69, and that my friend is the bottom line for me - having fun with music. I am in the process of putting in another "fun" track to celebrate the acqusition of a light snake to finally plug in my base and guitar. When I'm done, I'll pop over and have a listen to your tracks - thanks again !
It's good to know that there are other "old guys" out there who know how to continually throw in different sounds into their songs to keep them fresh & yet stay with the mood of the piece! You definitely did it with this track!
My only gripe is that I wanted it to be longer! :)
