Very nice approach of reggae...very original but yet still you use teh signature rythm. Bit like dubreggae but with less delay. Definetly a track whic i will listen when the sun is shining and with a cold corona in my hand :p

Hey Silverman
I love reggae, and it's a pity you did not sing on it...but great use of those loops. A little bit of singing, maybe even a hook...? A reggae song without mentioning of Babylon is somehow incomplete ;)

Complicated, and also nice playing with panning, it makes it more complicated, but no more ideas about this types of music

Very enjoyable journey my friend....and very cinematic! The
general approach is as always very creative ! Keep up good work...
...did I say good?...Oh no, it's excellent !:)

Haven't listened to much of your stuff but this is a good one for sure. Nice chill sound. Amazing

Great title! I agree with Mos, cinematic is what first popped into my mind. I picture a journey, on heavy footed yaks of course, where the monk spreads his wisdom throughout the land. Nice soundscape, has a world music feel to it.

Being denim clad he would "levi"tate to show his powers of the mind. ;)

This is a cool trip. The bass line almost mirrors a snare drum pattern cadence used by the military bands of the west. Then we have crazy sitars backed by a soft drone. Then a sino like modal pattern with those midi guitars. 2:30 is like new age pattern from the late eighties early nineties. 3:22 those monks return with real snares. cool convergence of sounds very creative and I like how it's like a journey. Nice "ting" for the end.
Great job.
thoroughly enjoyed that one.

Hey mate

Nice bass and beat to this one, loving the pads coming in at the intro, very dramatic cinematic type of piece this one, pads/strings and cello really standout in this track, giving it a journey type of feel with the beat and bass, very enjoyable listen, in parts the track reminds me of a great Japanese artist Kitaro, if you haven't heard of him, check him out on YouTube and will see what I mean...massive fav...Peace mosaic...

I`m not sure that monk is as peaceful as he is supposed to be...maybe he used some of the wrong kind of mountain weed in making his incense..now, that part starting around 2:20 sees him with a new peaceful vision of his role...before temptation comes his way again at 3:42 for a while....very cool trip silverman...certainly different...and most definitely an enjoyable listen...great job...Ed

Brother to the Leather Clad Monk :p What is that string instrument, the bass one? Sounds like a plucked cello. I like the synth sound that's kind of like throat singing. Recorded live at a monastary in the Himilayays, the same one I escaped to when running from the yeti after Orlando stopped singing to him!!

haha i wrote frightening wrong

So cold and pretty Frightning stuff ... Very nice song

Hey Silverman

WOW first off great clarity of the mix, one of the better tracks reviewed today, sounds like would have been a fun track to do, has that vibe about it, everything sounds so good here my friend, thanks for sharing this one, instant fav right from the start...Peace n Respect matey...mosaic...

How could I go past this track, I mean who has knocked back a toot right?...ahh that's my past speaking I'd be appalled to think I'd even consider imbibing these days! lol...Man you've got some serious soundscape happening here and I know you put some in depth thought into your music, it's like setting off on a nature walk (not the flora and fauna kind) all the creeping promise of bliss whilst deftly hiding the comedown hebejeebees(no idea how to spell that) are present, the pleasant distortion of reality and the promise of shagging that suddenly more attractive babe you've been eyeing off....as they say you get more bang for your buck, compelling, driven and unashamedly wanton at times...Jeez typical, lets have some more please! cheers Dave :)

Sorry I'm late for this one, but now I see it was well worth checking it out cause this is definitely creative stuff and you won't believe that I also find it a bit reminiscent of ZZ Sputnik as Steve stated before. This was a good fun listen my friend...thanks for sharing !

Compliments______Orlando

Very expressive, stutter eighties style. Sort of like a Zigue Zigue Sputnik tune.
cool

Legalizing drugs would take the power away from the dealers., but you know how our governments just love to tell us how to live our lives as if we can't make our own choices.... Marijuana was my drug of choice, have since given that up though in favor of music ;) Always good to experiment, that's how we grow. Did you do a line before this? It's upbeat enough LOL!

Very interesting style of electro here! Minimal in a good way, and it gets you moving! Cocaine has never been my drug of choice, in fact I've watched it ruin people too many times. I do believe that it should be legalized and regulated with all of the other drugs and psychoactives out there. Who am I to judge what people use to get through life, right? Then at least the law etc would not be the reason people's lives take a turn for the worse. Sorry to rant a bit, I guess your song just got my mind moving! I like the sample chopping in here, it's pretty trippy! Fun to hear all the way through! Definitely a change from what I've heard you do before, and it's good to try new things! Keep doing it! Fave!

Yo, S Man.

I see this as a bit of a leftfield dance track with jazzy elements.

I still really have no idea how you make your music as you never seem to explain that at all in your track descriptions. Is it mostly samples? Are you, for instance, playing the sax in via a keyboard?

Main sax riff is driving and quite funky, with the bass throbbing.

0:55 brass is pretty cool and then there's a nice jazzy load of sax playing starting 1:02.

1:03 what's that right panned funky little, insistent instrument?

Then a nice load of harmonics as the track really chills out and gets spacier.

Then crashing, groovy funk drums.

1:50 return to the previously established chill but now with a dance beat underneath.

This is quite creative stuff and busy for only a couple of mins so far

Lots more returning to previous themes as the track continues though not that much for me to say about them.

"a little long winded in places"

Yes, you could probably cut down the second half a bit and not lose much that would be noticed as missing.

Congrats.

I think you got the radio sound down for sure. I like that the sax is panned a bit to the right, helps it to feel a bit larger, as if in a room. Great job, thanks for this one!

Brado

Nice job this track, it has a nice laid back feeling to it. Good mix as well, thanks for sharing.

Hey Silver

Sunday morning here, this is just the tonic to listen too first off in the morning, great production on this one, nice vocal, yep you hit the bluesy jazz feel, have to agree with Zergmastzer that this sounds like you are listening in a up market lounge, chilling with a drink...impressive work...instant fav right from the very start...Peace n much respect to you on this one...mosaic..

I like this one silverman..nice smooth vibe..a bit of R&B - Jazz feel...You have the mix in a nice space too...feel like I should be sitting at a back table sipping on something cool....great job...Cheers...Ed

Silverman you never cease to amaze me with the interesting concepts for tunes you come up with, and this certainly a prime example.
I have referred to this track as "Smooth Jazz With A Pulse." Very laid back vibe as stated with a disco-ish dance track. All the
the musical elements work very in this tune,
and it was simply a joy to listen to. "Red Shoes For Him? Red Shoes For Her? Or Red Shoes For The Rest of Us All? This track is just too groovy to pass up.

Well Done My Friend

Hey mate

Catchy little piece you have here, nice beat, very nice synths, sounds great through headset, to me it is crying out for vocals, have you thought of putting vocals into it?
Loving the changes in to different sounds and styles, very good arrangement to help keep listener glue throughout the whole, impressive work my friend fav'd mosaic
