Hey Patricia, so nice to hear from you! Thank you for listening. I understand that I am hard on myself, but it keeps me sharp because I know that the critics are a lot harder and the competition in the business either professionally or underground is fierce. So I have to make sure I don't drop the ball musically and present something that people think it's sub par. I know that people have a lot of opinions, so I always want to keep those opinions at a minimum. Thanks again, you're the GREATEST!!
I left him an e-mail a while back after he got in touch with me the first time. I haven't heard anything back yet. I'm pretty sure he's busy which I can definitly understand. I did, however, pitch this song to a couple of podcast stations and it's now playing in rotation. I might keep that up for a while and then I'll work my way into pitching it for TV, movies and other media. Thanks for checking in, I hope things are well on your end.
Any time you can build a song around a pella and have it turn out this well, you know you have done your job. This sounds like she was in a studio with the musicians. I'll go out on a limb here and say that Richie will agree with me.
This is one heck of a great job. For your first foray into rock, I'd have to say you nailed it. And Farisha is a rare talent indeed.
Perfection and definitely added to the favorites list.
Sorry for the delay. Trying to regroup after Hurricane Sandy swept my area. But thank you again for your words, sir. It means a lot when a real musician such as yourself can appreciate the effort. I hope to continue to amaze you and keep pushing myself to make other music outside my comfort zone. Thanks again, sir!
Sorry for the long delay in response, still recovering from Hurricane Sandy. I'm so glad that you like it. I was kind of worried. If you like, I can send this to you. But thanks again for your kind words on this. Greatly appreciated. You are definitly one of a kind!
Hey bro, I have to agree with Spudsy on this one. You are one good mix away from having a radio ready track on your hands. I actually like the verb on the guitar at the beginning. It gives the piece more of a live feel.
I know you may not believe this, but you are really one of the truly talented people on the Loop. You have a real feel for knowing what people want/like in a song, and then know how to deliver. And you do it song after song.
This one is a beauty. Patricia is in rare form (hard to go wrong with one of her pellas). Awesome work brother. I think I'll leave you with one word....
Thanks, Bear, for your kind words. I appreciate all of your input. There are times where I second guess myself because I know how critical this business is. But your words help to inspire me. Thanks again!
Brother, I have to agree with Patricia. Stand up and take a bow, this one is really well done. You nailed the progressions, structure is perfect, mix is spot on, nothing here to be worried about.
I guarantee you I would be very proud of this effort. You should be too. And the break is sheer genius :)
Expertly arranged and constructed.
you have a uncanny ability to know what a vocal needs to be heard at its best.
to be a little critical the guitar at the beginning could do with less verb, but god this track is very good.
with a good stem mix down this would do very well. or at least earn you enough interest to get noticed by some big boys.
Hiya bro.. Wongki brought this track to my attention and im really glad he did.
I would like to work with you on getting this up to a release worthy standard. and maybe after speaking to the artist herself try and arrange some sort of re-mix package for release.
Our last 3 tracks have all been played on 1xtra, kiss fm, choice etc...
Thank you for your interest in this song. I appreciate any effort to take this song to the masses. I can communicate with you through e-mail. I can send you a message from here. Will be in touch with you very soon. Again, I thank you very much for your interest.
This is a great effort and it sounds really good. Keep it going my friend - it's going in the right direction. It's in the right key, the right tempo and you have some interesting arrangement ideas. Great job.
Sorry for the long delay in response. Thanks again for the kind review. I really appreciate all the details of your input. I try to do the best I can, although it is hard at times. But thanks again, sir.
Had to come and check out some more of your tracks, and this is another one that's really grabbed my attention..
Just who *is* Kelly Mueller? Is she on the loop at all? I'd love to check out her music profile, be it here or soundcloud or where ever..
This is another fantastic track, loving the chord stabs and the vocal. Particularly liked the string work in the background.. My only criticism is the outro seemed a bit lazy, but an element easily overlooked in the grand scheme of things..
Hey Wongki, thank you very much for your review and input. It means a lot coming from a person with much more music professional knowledge than me. Kelly Mueller is based out of London and she has her own website as well. She does not have a looperman account. We communicate mostly through Soundcloud. She is an amazing singer and I try to do her justice production wise. Thanks again.
Completely blown away by this. The drum work/percussion is outstanding and must have taken a lonnnng time to get just right. The track structure is fantastic,.. as are the vocals - some of the best I've heard on this site by a long way.
If you're looking to take this track further, I know a guy that might be able to hook you up.. And I'd also love to remix this track for you if you're interested, if not, no worries :)
Thanks again, Wongki, for your kind words. I did this record through the course of four days. I had one idea prior to what you hear now on how to approach the song. But then I ended up doing something with the use of a drumline, sort of what you would hear from a marching band. Every sound that you hear, was indeed done by me and the track structure as well. I had to think on how I could hear the record as though it was performed live on television. I would like to take this track further, so if you do know someone, I would greatly appreciate it. You can send me a message through here and it will come up on my e-mail. As far as remixing the record, you can find the acapella on her soundcloud page.
Whaaaaaat!!!!! hahahahaha. Naah man, this track is SIIIIICK! Jeez Tim, absolutely no words for how superb this is my friend. Commercially, sound, excellent and most importantly radio and chart ready! You never cease to amaze me my friend. This is your genre. You own it on the loop, period! Sick sick track mate. Those synths, appregs, swells man oh man! Would absolutely kill to collaborate with you! Absolutely sick track and vocal. No words fam, have it on repeat! Wish it was available for download.
Thank you so much!! I greatly appreciate your kind words. It took a while to get this song right with the arrangement but I'm glad that you enjoyed it. It puts a smile on my face knowing that people can listen to the records and be pleased with them. Thanks again for this review!
This one is ready for prime time and should be playing on the radio. Kelly's voice is just spectacular, but when you combine her talents with your production genius, well, that's solid gold.
Seriously, this is top shelf material. I just hope someone comes along and helps you two take this one to the next level. Hey, when you get famous, I've got a bus you can use :)
Thank you again for your praise of the song. Kelly's voice was the true inspiration for the production of this record. I wanted to make sure that her voice didn't get tarnashed. I wanted to match up powerful drums with her powerful voice. Believe me, it wasn't easy. I just want to say thank you, sir. I just might call you one day for that bus!
This is such a great track. Well done indeed. It's very nicely arranged and I like the dynamics in the track and how it rises and falls. Very modern sound, super song construction and a nice mix. All good. I like it very much.
I like where it's going, you guys should add more between the breaks like some risers and effects to build up that excitement, and then hit them with an explosive hook! Keep up and the vocals are amazing!
Thanks, I'm glad that you like it. I wanted to make sure that I used the loop correctly. Thanks for your input as well. You're the master, I'm still a student of the game.
I like this track very much. Good to hear (literally) Patricia's voice given so much opportunity to shine and be an integral part of the track. Lovely arrangement and nicely thought out breakdowns. Great job - love it.
Thank you for the kind words, sir. I've heard some of the records that you and Ms. Edwards collaborated on. I must say they are second to none. Thanks again for reviewing, I greatly appreciate it.
