Lets keep it objective and adult. Solidarity shouldn't blind us to basic facts in a community built around real production craft like Looperman.
Comparing a prompt-generated track from Suno or Udio to an audio engineer using an AI-assisted compressor or a traditional live orchestra is a massive stretch. There is a galaxy of difference between using a plugin to enhance a human performance and rendering an entire songvocals, lyrics, and instrumentsfrom a text generator, and then passing it off as a live recording with fake crowd noise.
Claiming that certain 'live vocal qualities' or 'live performances' are proof of reality when those alleged projects and their collaborators have absolutely zero digital footprint, zero industry records, and zero human existence outside of an AI algorithm just proves the point.
Furthermore, referencing external numbers doesn't change reality. Anyone knows how the digital market works: having hundreds of thousands of views on a video but only 4 or 5 commentsall coming exclusively from the exact same closed circle of profilesis the textbook definition of artificial traffic and bot-inflated metrics. Real audiences leave real engagement. If these tracks were from actual gigs in front of thousands, there would be dates, venues, and at least one anonymous person posting a short video, a picture, or a tweet about the show. Instead, there is absolute digital silence from the real world.
Defending AI-generated content by creating a fake narrative is an insult to the thousands of real producers here who actually spend hours building a track from scratch. Politeness is great, but honesty towards the craft is what keeps this community alive.

First of all, I wanted to sincerely apologize to you. You are completely right about one thing: you uploaded your music to share your work and enjoy the community, and it wasn't fair of us to turn your track's comment section into a heated debate forum about AI and metrics. That was your space, and I'm sorry for contributing to that tension.
Apology accepted.
It's okay, it's not my space, it belongs to everyone, and I think it's good to talk about things respectfully, which I appreciate.

Enough respect to you!
It makes me blush to think that someone admires me, hahaha. The vocals are by Mansasworld, an acapella posted here on LM, and they're really what brings the song to life. I added very few sounds. But as I've already said, my goal is to learn to achieve good sound quality and learn how to use the DAW and plugins.
Best regards.

we had a forum page long time ago where we could discuss things like this, you know, like adults LM removed them even tho 90%+ wanted them to remain, your comment section just took its place for a bit, she is fine, lets all get back to the music and building friendships, I want everybody both male and female to feel safe from attack in our community.
yes our Rita had a lot of grief just before i joined,
no one is here to deceive they are here to share build there own skill and develop and the more experienced gladly offer their help i'd be surprised if any here have made a 100 quid from there own music I know she has made more tho lol
I know, I've seen Manuela and her band's posts, their live performances, and from the comments in this community, I know how many years she's been sharing her work with you all.
But even if that weren't the case, what matters to me is people, how they treat me, and how they behave towards me. From day one, Manuela went out of her way to give me advice, explain things to me, and basically dedicate her time to me. And in this life, time is the most valuable thing we have, because the time we dedicate to others we'll never get back. That's why what's important to me are people, how they treat me, and Manuela, like everyone else, has treated me from the beginning with courtesy, respect, and dedication.
I've often heard songs that sounded like AI, but if they were, they're just fooling themselves, not me. I simply listen, and if I like it, I comment, and if they don't reply (as sometimes happens), well, I don't comment again. I believe that courtesy comes first. I don't understand the direct attack, the radical accusation, when these are things that I believe can't be proven. I'm no expert; I can't comment on AI or sound editing procedures, but I do understand education, harmony, and letting others live in peace. It would be different if I were being scammed, if someone were selling me a Goya and it was a photocopy; then I would appreciate being warned. But this isn't the case here. Nobody is profiting at anyone else's expense, which is why I don't understand it.
I discovered LM by chance, and although I had never been part of a chat room or community, I signed up to thank Odarka for her acapella. And when I saw the welcome you all gave me, I began to feel comfortable among you, because of the good harmony and familiarity that was conveyed here.
As I've already said below, I don't come here to read about conflicts or tensions. I want peace in my life and to be able to relax when I come here, like I have been these past three months. I already have enough stress in real life. I hope harmony, peace, civility, and respect for others will return.
Best regards, Juan Carlos

A comment like yours really cheers me up on a day like today.
And even more so coming from an artist like you, whose work I admire.
Best regards, Juan Carlos
on Before i Go - by Mansasworld by juankar
Your song is fantastic, both in its composition and sound quality. I really enjoyed listening to it.
Best regards, Anthony
Regarding the other issue, I don't understand it. I don't understand these confrontations. I don't come here to discover or investigate anyone; I come to unwind for a while, to listen to the music that's posted, and to read the comments from the people who have kindly given me advice and welcomed me like family from day one, that's all. If I want tension, confrontation, discord, I only have to go outside, especially with how things are in Spain lately.
I hope this will go back to being the place I discovered three months ago, a place where I can disconnect and not add more problems to my already complicated life.
Best regards, Juan Carlos

You're not ruining the comments section at all; I think this is what we need in a family like this.
I saw the little argument you had, but I didn't get involved because I knew he was a 15-year-old boy, still very young, and he'll surely make many mistakes in life, and most importantly... he apologized. I also saw Chris's technical argument; I was about to give my opinion on that one, but since I have to translate the comments several times before posting them to avoid misunderstandings due to incorrect translations, by the time I went to post my comment, the Linear Fade song had already been deleted, hahaha. And in Manuela's case, I couldn't contain myself; I exploded. I didn't understand why someone could be directly accused of intentionally trying to deceive, and why Manuela had to give so many explanations. Furthermore, in my comment, I invited anyone who doubted Manuela's talent to go to SoundCloud and listen to any of True Sister Band's live songs, such as "Today," which is a live recording and the vocal quality is perfect.
Rita told me that similar, even worse, things had happened in the past. From the very beginning, I have no complaints about how you've treated me. You've welcomed me into your family like one of your own, and that's why, whenever my migraines and time allow, I go to LM to relax by listening to your creations and reading the comments, which are always polite and constructive. I don't go here to see the same things I see when I step outside; that's what I run from.
And as I told Manuela, if they mess with the people I care about and admire... I'll bite!
Thanks for supporting me when I meddle in other people's business, hahaha, but I believe that cordiality, politeness, and kindness are the foundation of a society.
Best regards, Juan Carlos

I've been surprised by the kindness of everyone since I joined this great family. You've all given me advice, offered your opinions to encourage me, and above all, done so with respect. And I imagine it was the same when you arrived 13 years ago (you're quite the veteran now), you were helped and advised. That's a sign of the good people here, good people who come together for the love of music. As I mentioned to Manuela in her last post, today I finally snapped. Maybe I should have kept quiet, I don't know, but I snapped. It made me really angry to encounter the very things I run from in real life: confrontation, tension, and lack of respect. I hope this is just a one-off and that we can continue enjoying the creations that are published, discussing them, and living together in what has seemed to me from the beginning to be a great family (LM).
Thank you for your time and for the welcome you've given me.
Greetings.

With respect,
Chris
It has to be said that 80 percent of it is the vocals; I've added very little. But as you say, I don't want to go crazy adding instruments when I don't even know how to adjust them properly yet. That's my goal now: to have acceptable sound quality and then start creating when I have the time and mental clarity.
You have no idea how much this opinion means to me because of the admiration I have for you.
Best regards, Juan Carlos

He came here later as a newcomer.
Much younger than us but with the perseverance to want to learn and always very respectful towards us. In that way, he quickly became a sweet, enthusiastic member of our LM family.
Best regards, Rita.
Good night.

Thanks for your kind reply.
You were wondering what my reason was for leaving LM.
Suddenly, a lot of new members joined who weren't really serious.
They often made rude comments or put others down. A few years ago, I had a bully on LM who said terrible things. He went so far as to bully me on YouTube and SoundCloud as well. He even created a YouTube channel under my son's name. Fortunately, YouTube and LM took it seriously and banned him. Manuela also suffered a lot from bullies, and Paul has been through quite a bit too, if I'm not mistaken. Unfortunately, LM never became what it was again, like from 2020 to about 2024.
I had a migraine just yesterday and I know what a hell that is.
Fortunately, I only have it a few times a year.
I can't bear to think about what you're going through.
Do you get good medication for it?
And what animals do you take care of? Are they pets, or do you also have animals like on a farm? In any case, I'm glad you've joined. Just take your time when it comes to making music.
The fact that you're here to listen and write messages is already nice.
Have a very nice evening.
Greetings from Rita
Now I understand. I imagined you were referring to something that had happened here, but I didn't think it would be to this extent (you've left me speechless). It must be awful to feel harassed, especially when you don't know who it is. And isn't that something you can report? Even more so with your child involved?
I also suspected something had happened to Manuela, seeing her initial comments about being absent for a while.
It's a real shame that a place like this exists, with a good atmosphere, and then someone comes along and disrupts the harmony.
I'm sorry you also suffer from migraines; they're terrible. Let me tell you a little about my case: When I was 18, I had a very serious car accident (I was hospitalized for 3 months). That frontal fracture caused me to start having migraines over the years (at first, just a few, about one a month). Over time, they became more frequent. By 40, it was unbearablemore than one migraine a week. At 42, I was hospitalized to monitor the frequency and intensity of the pain. They forced me to stop working because it was happening three days a week. All of this led to my separation from my wife and a deep depression due to financial hardship. But thank God, I managed to pull through. I found ways to earn a living with IT, electronics, and other things. And I began dedicating my life to animals. Every now and then, a cat would appear on my property and give birth to kittens. I would bring the ones that were sick, weak, or had some kind of defect into my house to protect them. Before I knew it, I had more than 20. I had to spay all the cats in the neighborhood because the situation was getting out of control. In the last 15 years, I only have the last few animals left in my house; currently, there are nine. They are very old and don't have much time left. But many have passed through my hands during this time.
It has been difficult to juggle caring for the animals with my migraines, even more so since they considered me a lost cause because there was no treatment that worked to prevent them. They decided to treat me in the pain unit, but instead of preventing the migraines, they gave me strong medication so I wouldn't suffer so much. They started treating me with Actiq 200 (Fentanyl). Today, I've decided to stop all that medication (it was killing me) and I only take anti-inflammatories and cannabis honey.
Right now, I have good weeks when I only get the migraines once or twice a week. And other weeks, three or four times a week. And you know... in the dark in a room, unable to hear anything. And I have to sleep during the day and at night.
Sorry for rambling on, but I start writing and I can't stop, that's what happens when you live alone, hahaha.

Thanks for the warm welcome and the attention you give me.

It was the same with Paul; I got goosebumps reading your words. Because after almost three months in this great LM family and reading hundreds of comments, I've come to understand the connection between you all, and when I read comments like yours from people who, for me, form the backbone of LM... well, it really touches me.
I realize the relationship you have and how generous and kind you are, which is why I've always considered you a big family united by music.
The language barrier bothers me, not knowing English, haha, because I waste so much time translating everything many times until I manage to get people to understand what I want to say. Sometimes a bad translation leads to misunderstandings.
I'm very proud of the welcome you've given me, which is why I feel indebted and always reply to every message and read your replies to mine. Sometimes even in the early hours of the morning, I've woken up after 20 hours of migraine, and I've logged on to listen to the new songs and read the messages. I think LM is a bit addictive for me, hahaha.
on Before i Go - by Mansasworld by juankar
I'm not such an extensive writer and have to translate most of it. But now I'll make myself heard too lol.
When I joined LM, I had purchased FL Studio but had never done anything with music before.
I had to learn everything from the ground up and figure out how the DAW worked. And every time I figured something out, I forgot where to find it in the DAW. I didn't want to use loops, so I really had to learn how to make a beat.
Thanks to the help and support of the LM family, I kept going.
Just a comment that I had a knack for it made me continue. If I was working on a beat and couldn't figure it out, I would throw it online for advice and then continue with it. In the beginning, I was terrible. My kicks were often off-beat and my music jumped from one thing to another lol.
But I kept persevering, and so did the LM family with me, until I could make a worthy beat, even though I never really became as good as others here.
And the same thing started with my singing.
First, a few words with a lot of embarrassment.
And thanks to the compliments and encouragement from the FL family, that expanded more and more until I got more guts to sing.
I have also built a personal bond with some people here on LM.
Manuela is my LM daughter and Paul is almost me, only a bit tougher.
Robin, Cyberflares was one of the first people I got to know. We have seen each other grow, even though Manuela is already an experienced singer.
Sometimes I wanted to leave LM because a lot has changed these years. But whoever thinks they are leaving eventually comes back.
There are many temporary people or people who just do their thing here. But you also have people who quickly become a member of the group, just like you. I hope you will get just as much out of it as I did. After 6 years on LM, I still don't know the musical terms they often use here, so you will never hear me complain about that. Sometimes I don't know how to describe what I mean in English, and the translator apparently doesn't always understand me either. My words are often simple and not too long, but I do mean them.
I love that we share more about our lives; I think it helps us understand each other's music better. For example, with your comments, I understood the reason behind those dramatic lyrics, I understood the story behind each song. And that's made me enjoy listening to you more and more, because I feel the emotion you convey, the story you tell. And even though what's behind your lyrics saddens me, I enjoy listening to them because you connect with me so much.
I have the same problem with musical terminology, so I can only say if I like something a lot, a whole lot, but little else. I get lost in so many technical terms; at most, I can say if something sounds more or less defined, clear, and little more.
I seem to recall you mentioning to me before that you started creating your rhythms around 2020, but that it was still difficult, but that with time and passion you'll succeed.
As I told Paul, I'd never been in a chat room or anything like that before, but I'm glad I joined. From the beginning, I've felt welcome; you've all been incredibly kind to me, and it makes me angry that I can't dedicate as much time to this as I'd like.
When you say that many things have changed during this time and that sometimes you've wanted to leave, I'm not sure if you're referring to changes here or in your life.
For example, in the last few days I've noticed a bit of tension in some of the comments, which I'd never seen before (I haven't been here long). The last one was on a Liner Fade song, which I didn't understand because, along with Manuela, they're my biggest influences in LM. I think both groups are professionals worthy of a major record label, but there was a small disagreement, and since I also have to translate everything before posting... by the time I went to write it, the song had already been deleted, haha.
I hope to enjoy this community for a long time, but unfortunately, my migraines are getting worse every day, and my work with the animals is getting more demanding. Despite everything, I'll keep trying to find time to at least listen to the work you all post, even if I can't upload anything myself.
Thanks for telling me more about yourself.
Greetings from your admirer, Juan Carlos.

Not at all, many of the songs I've heard you sing, I've imagined them with a rhythm like mine, and I think your voice would give my music a special touch. The thing is, I'm the one who still needs to learn how to combine music with a voice. When I do it with the acapella of Odarka or Mansasworld, I try my best, but since I've never spoken to them and I've seen many versions of that same acapella by other people, the final result doesn't cause me any anxiety. But with you guys it's different; it's like I already know you, and the responsibility of living up to your standards, for now, prevents me from using your voices.
on Before i Go - by Mansasworld by juankar
First of all, I'm so sorry for not replying sooner.
It's 5:30 here and I just woke up. I saw on my phone that I had a message from Looperman about a message from crucethus, and I decided to check it from my phone. I was so embarrassed when I saw that you had left a comment on the 4th and I hadn't replied.
Thank you so much, I'm glad you liked it.
I think it's never too late to learn, especially to do something you enjoy. In my case, it's almost become an obsession. I see life passing me by and I can't accept that there will come a time when I can no longer learn. I want to acquire all the knowledge I can. It might be regret for not having taken advantage of my youth to study when I should have.
From the tracks I hear of yours, I can see that you have a very good grasp of all this. I'm glad you decided to learn so we can enjoy your creations.
I'm going back to bed, haha.
Best regards, and sorry for this oversight.
Juan Carlos.
on Before i Go - by Mansasworld by juankar
First of all, I hope that sciatica stops bothering you soon. I think that double dose of music therapy is spot on; I'm sure it will help.
I realize the drums are a bit too prominent. I think that was somewhat intentional because it was a very simple track, just vocals and five other plugins.
And yes, I'm learning at my own pace, a very slow pace for what I'd like, haha. But I barely have any time to dedicate to this. Between the many days I lose to migraines and taking care of so many animals, there's not much time left. That's what happens when you live alone in a very big house. As soon as I finish cleaning, I have to start preparing the medication to give to the sick ones. I make myself a meal, finish eating, and there are already areas that have made a mess again. I finish cleaning, and it's time for the next dose of medication. It's nonstop.
Thank you for your words. Reading them after a pretty rough day really touched me. I mean it sincerely; they really resonated with me. I never imagined that joining this amazing Looperman family would mean so much to me. I've practically never used social media and I've never even been in a chat room to talk to anyone, so this has been something completely new for me.
I admire your passion for music. You live for it; it's your life, and it shows in your work. It doesn't matter if some pieces are better than others; the passion you put into them all shines through.
I also really love music, but it's more about learning something new. I admit I'm a bit unusual in that sense. My goal is to learn new things, to acquire knowledge; it's always been like that. I think I've never truly enjoyed life because I haven't focused on just one thing. I know about electronics (it was my profession), I know about computers (it's a hobby), there was a time when I was into drawing, another when I was into model making (I made tons, especially motorcycles and cars), I'm good at mechanics (I repair my own motorcycles and cars), I do all the repairs myself at home (carpentry, plumbing, masonry), and the home insurance company is thrilled because I've never had to file a claim, haha. As they say here, "jack of all trades, master of none." It's always been like that, which is why I know I'll never reach your level, because my obsession is learning and I probably lack the passion to be creative.
Despite that, I enjoy doing it and sharing my progress with the community.
Sorry for this long message, but I don't know why, I needed to open up and let you get to know me a little better.
Thank you so much for your support.
Best regards, Juan Carlos

You do it realy good.
The vocal is nice and clear
and also well placed.
I'm glad you liked it. The vocals are an acapella by Mansasworld that inspired me to do this test.
Someday, when I'm better at it and feeling creative enough, maybe I'll work up the courage to ask you to add the vocals.
Best regards, Juan Carlos

Great job! Cheers!
The opinions of established musicians like yourself in this community mean a lot to me. I learn something new every day from listening to your work.

This is the first version I published; later I uploaded the mastered version following the advice of the great masters we have here. We keep learning.

It's incredible that artists like you take the time to listen to my music; it brightens my day.

Great track pitty it was short but i know your working on sound design i thought it sounded great to me i enjoyed my listen jaun great share well done ;)
Yes, the goal is to learn how to work with sound, which is why the track is short; I'm not feeling very creative right now, haha.
For example, in this song, I tried to make some sounds move from left to right and vice versa. I think I achieved that with the sound at the beginning, which is like a choir voice. It's a sound called Clara Voice, and it's loaded in a plugin called Soundbox.
It means a lot to me that you liked it, knowing how wonderful your music is.
Best regards, Juan Carlos
on Before i Go - by Mansasworld by juankar
The really beautiful thing is Mansasworld's acapella.
For me, the important thing was to keep experimenting to achieve acceptable sound quality, and if I could also do it with a somewhat nice song... then perfect.
I'll keep experimenting and sharing my progress with the community to get your feedback.
Cheers.
Juan Carlos.
