I really love this track. It's beautiful on so many levels! I've written lyrics for it and I'd like to record my vocals. Can you please let me try?

Liked the energy in this simple (yet not boring) track.
Good choice of sounds and well mixed.
The bass line is a bit "obsessive" with the two notes repeated over-and-over-again, but this is not a bad thing: it makes the song "darker" and I think this was your intention.
Beautiful trumpet solo.
Overall, I song I liked.
Ciao, Domenico

PS: I have to thank MrNomad for pointing me to this little gem.

Thank you for listening and commenting on this track! I think it sums up nicely what this song is all about and it also confirms my opinion that sometimes less is just more. I’m glad you liked it. Thx und Servus

Yo. Me back yet again. I started up a forum thread about favourite ever tracks on Looperman and I chose this track as one of my favourites. I thought you'd want to know.

https://www.looperman.com/forum/thread/182742/what-are-your-favourite-tracks-on-looperman

Maybe people will come check this out a bit more because of my choice. Or maybe they won't! It really does deserve more plays and feedback. Will anyone other than me ever get round to commenting on it?

Why not let us know your top Looperman tracks. Post them on that same thread. There’s some serious quality there and I’ve learned about lots of great tracks I’d never heard of before.

Congrats again.

Nice track, man. I enjoy the smooth keys and the way you blend the hats and cymbals in the percussion.

"This means a lot to me and reading it has just made my day."

No problem, man. You deserve it. We all need some appreciation for the music we make and things we do (me included) and it's good to just hear what someone else thought, even if it's critical (which can help you improve).

I write lots of very long reviews of people's stuff and always try to listen closely and give time references for what I'm talking about so they can understand what I am saying.

Reason is awesome. If you need synths, drums, loads of FX that work beautifully, think about adding it. But all DAWs these days are great. We're spoilt for choice! No excuses not to make cool music. Please make some more and upload it here...

I forgot to say that I'm also a Cubase 6.5 user. I've run it together with Reason since 2001.

Not a particular Cubase fan, just have a lot of old work in there which I need to get round to finishing so I'm kind of locked in.

Never really used Groove Agent, Halion a bit a long time ago. Probably got similar things in Reason but maybe I'll give GA more of a try.

Padshop is a pretty cool synth and I keep forgetting to use it more.

Again, well done with this cool bit of meditative hip hop.

Thank you very much for listening and writing such a detailed and affirmative review. This means a lot to me and reading it has just made my day. To know that some people bother to listen to a track closely and also to give feedback gives me a lot of motivation to keep uploading tracks.

I also run Cubase since version 1 and updated it to version 6.5. I like Cubase a lot and I wouldn’t swap it for any other program at the moment. I’ve also used Reason alongside Cubase, but I’ve never really gotten the hang of it. I realise though that there is a lot of potential in it.

Will defenitely check out your tracks. I could only get a glimpse of your music before I was writing this. But it sounds very promising. I’m looking forward to listen to it more and pay the attention to it that it deserves.

Thanks again!

Wicked. Meant to review this a few days ago, thought I'd made it a favourite but hadn't. So had to go searching for it again. Found it eventually.

Screw the other 20 people who have listened to this and not commented. This is such an awesome chill groove with such a cool vibe. Love that bass, the electric piano lead. Then there's that second lead brass instrument, with its menacing little melody

2:16 cool little stutter.

This is almost perfect, except for the vocal. I will download it and listen more.

Well produced, cool drums. Couldn't ask for more.

That vocal is OK, just not as good as the rest. Doesn't give it much of a lift when it comes in. I like the idea of having the vocal there, just think you could find something better to use.

Excellent work.

If you want to check some of my very long form trippy hip hop related stuff try Right Place Wrong Century, Zero Per Cent Proof and Way Beyond Wrong.

Will check more of your tracks. Take care.

I'm writing as I listen. You had my attention at the first note. I love the film noir feel this has. The horns are great. Great composition. Cat burgler or James Bond theme music here.

Almost a Dave Brubeck kinda feel...Pretty cool! We need more jazz on Looperman. We have an over abundance of Hip Hop and Rap.

Take Five & Keep up the good jazz,

Since it's my voice I'll give my 2 cents.

I like the beat but I can barely hear my vocals, U gotta fix that.
