That's absolutely stunning. Hats off to Mark, but also especially to your keys, and maybe for the bass playing? that shows up really well too! Good track man!
Mark started me out on my musical journey(back in the day).
The composition, Synth (playing) and arrangement are all me,
altho I don't coubt that Mark optimized some of the timings during his Mastering of the track.
Thanks for giving the track a listen and encouraging comments.
It's good to see you back on LM. You were here jammin when I first joined this great music community.
Wow... When I started LM and using DAW's 3 years ago,
you were one of my Gold standards in music production.
So to get a "Fave" from you means a lot to me.
I can't speak for Mark but, I'm sure he would be very interested in doing a jam session with you. IJS...
Thanks for giving the track a listen, Fave and encouraging comments.
Chicago, sigh. It's been 1993 since I have been there. I think You captured it. And you have such talented production help. I love that percussion at 2:13 on. Amazing song and sound, well-done mate!
Beautiful work Jynxz - very cinematic feel to these ears - can really imagine that drive through the city late at night. A real lovely space in the mix, and of course brilliant musicianship too : )
It's kinda funny how the feeling dawned on me after I wrote the track and listened to it and it brought back memories of
being in that downtown atmosphere listening to music that meant everything to me at the time. Plus being with Mark and the other band members we were like family (still are). Living life to it's fullest.
Thanks for giving our track a listen, comments and for the Fave. It's very encouraging.
you painted a nice setting to listen to this masterpiece i ended up heading back tp my cave standing at the entrance tapping my toe and bobbing my head very cool track to listen to on here.
great work guys.
Mark put the icing on the cake on this one.
I felt that since we had shared the experience
together as a band (back in the day) he would be
totally on the same page and, he was. I couldn't
have written the Drum track that Mark did on this
track. We had a great time writing it.
Thanks for giving the track a listen, encouraging comments
and for the Fave.
I know you're no stranger to the feeling after pulling an all-nighter playing with the band.
We'd practice at Mark's house almost all night, then we;
(Hamp-Vocals RIP) (Big Ant-Bass) (Mark- Drums) and myself (just starting out on Keys). We'd get in Marks car, that had a monster stereo, and we'd cruise Downtown until the sun came up listening to Tower of Power/Return to forever/Graham Central station or whoever we were into at the time. Those were the best times of my life.
Sorry for being so wordy (2nd cup of coffee)lol
Thanks for stopping by and giving the track a listen
and for the encouraging comments.
Robbie, wow man your description is perfect, you could actually change Chicago to any sprawling metropolis, the drums are sumptuous as is the music production is sublime congrats defo fav
Thanks for giving my track a listen and for the Fave.
I wish I had the gift of lyrics ( like you) to properly describe the feeling I get when I think about the old days with music,
It's a great feeling. I'm glad there is a place where I can
share those feelings so that they never die.
Anytime I get feedback from a LM alumnist
it makes me feel great. When I started a couple
of years ago I was totally intimidated by the skill
and mastery most of you guys here on LM have. I'm still
striving to reach for the next level.
I appreciate your listen and encouraging comments.
I know that I don't come around often but you don't always put vocals on your tracks with you I like this one though pretty dope. I know that I'm pretty play or put like samples like how you did with this one in the beginning. The ending was brilliant I love that switch up
Another great track - so many intricate textures and beautiful melodic parts to this, the transitions are sublime, great flow, and lovely sound production too
Thank you for giving my track a listen
and for the fave with encouraging comments,
I missed you here on LM. I need to log in
and check out your latest.
yo, J! it’s all in the swing, man! that transition is mindblowing but organic (shrooms, aha), the whole thing sounds like a breeze, which is a helluva thing to pull off. ace track!
Thank you for giving my track a listen.
I'm glad you liked it. At first I was afraid
that it wasn't genre specific enough to get a
notice here on LM but, I was wrong/again. lol
Thanks for the encouraging comments as well
I do get a Zappa vibe on the vocals.
but it's that synth solo in the background that I love. Hypnotic and psychedelic as always, ever-changing and ever interesting. Great work my friend (PS nice use of the bongos, subtle but fitting) You get 5 Mushrooms for this one
Hey man I appreciate you continuing to encourage
me to "Express Myself" in my own way.
(PS I didn't think anyone would notice the Bongo's)
It's real easy for me to fall down the Percussion rabbit hole never to be seen again. LOL.
Thank you for your listen and encouraging comments.
Thank you for your listen and encouraging comments.
I actually started out making a track that was totally
Zappa-ish but the lyrics of the Female Vocals kinda made me feel like the track shouldn't be a total parody because of the truth in them.
But I didn't want to get too serious so...
Great track Rob that bass is hot, the synth is fantastic and of course that uptempo change at 2.00, the vocal is class, great production and sound quality, love that hat, hip swinging
Thank you stopping by and giving my track a listen.
Your encouraging comments are greatly appreciated.
You make me want to "Poplock" lol. I'd probably break
something:-)
Reminds me a bit of the Brand New Heavies as far as the flow and sound of the production. Cool changes and nice choices on all the instrumentation, there's some tasty synth sounds and playing, very well done Mr Jynxz!
Wow, very nice again, Maestro. You're really good at nesting all the elements rhythmically with each other. Everything is alive there in the real sense. You also do a great job with the voice samples, but I can imagine that you would also love to work with a "real" female singer ... Maybe something will come up in that regard (...)
Also, I think Looperman should provide its own genre for you to choose from, something like "psychodubfunk" or "dubadelic"...or best of all "Jynxzadelic". No, best would be just "Jynxz", period.
Have a nice day my friend
Cheers from Neanderthal
Hello Jybxz.
This track is beautiful .Perfect vocals on it.
Love that high guitar tone? Im not sure.
But it is not Psychedelic .
Some how this track is full with rest to me.
Like that switchover at 2:00
well done again mister
I was working on about 4 tracks at the same time
(trying to maximize my weekend session).
I was thinking about the track I was working on which
is "Psychedelic" when I wrote the description. (Senior moment).

At first I read "1933", I was going to say "Damn, you're really old). Then I saw "1993" and I said "Damn I'm really old). LOL.
I tell Mark all the time he sounds just like he's playing a real Drum set. There is no difference between what he does live or in a DAW. He's amazing.
Thanks for stopping by and giving the track a listen and for the encouraging comments.
Hope we didn't disappoint you.
