"EBM is more a bit darker, a bit more hypnotic, a bit more on a -stand around and dance in a standing way- with closed eys and some more "inside" feelings ....... bla bla bla :)"

OK Joe I get your Zeitgeist on this, but what does EBM stand for exactly? Electronic Bitch Music? Electronic Bourgeois music, Emo Banging Mantra's...that's what I wanted clarification on.
"it is just a cool kind of disco music in my ears with a little dark hypnotic touch."

I would agree with that assessment. Demon Disco is not a widely used term, and I believe New Order would fall into that category with Blue Monday.
"Respect for a real musican like you are one for sure Steve."

Thank you Mate.

to me Disco is more complicated and simpler than the fluff pop garbage we got served on pop radio from 1977-1980. There is T.S.O.P. filled with strings. Funk-Disco (White Cherry), Giorgio Moroder's electronic early Trance. rock disco fusion. Early House music. But the one thing in common with all those tracks and genres was a simple 4/4 beat at around 120bpm, that is all you need to be considered disco.
Bee Gee's were incredible songwriters and melody creators. For a period they still wrote great songs but just added the 4/4 beat. I heard Adam Lambert do a version of more than a woman, but in a broken down acoustic style that was incredible. why...the underlying song and melody is good.

Ahh I love doing that solo. It's actually much easier than many of the other solos I have done. But I love to play this one and glad u got to hear it and most touched you commented on it , with it's many wah effects because it's just pure joy for me to play.
Cru

Domenico... you are definitely not insane my friend. your one of the sanest people I know here! Demon disco at it's finest. This song is really a test to make sure you haven't had a stroke!
Steve

You are sort of correct in that this is a post disco song. What I love about Ferry and Jagger and Richards and Bowie, they all spent time at studio 54 and absorbed the hedonism of Disco which erupted from the gay underground and added it to their rock and R&B sensibilities and came up with some amazing sounds and songs that go beyond disco. outside of the 4 to the floor beat the intricate rhythm guitars and bass lines set them apart. This is an ode to that style.
I am glad U enjoyed it.

All those songs contributed to the synthesis of this one. Thomas Dolby.. love his work. Hyperactive, and Close but no cigar are two of my fav songs from him.
nice comment my friend.
Crugracious

Hey Joe,
" EBM sort of Disco " please explain EBM to me?
This is played entirely by myself. String stabs, guitar sounds, percussion, bass line. All me on this one.
I was going for a Demon Disco sound.

Luvs yah 2 but keep that on the down low...shhh...

Finding some Roxy Music in anything these days is a good evening I would say.
;-)

I telephoned Madonna but "Like a Virgin" she "hung up" on me because she is such a "Material girl" I would need something "Like a Prayer" at this point to get her to listen. it's like she is "Miles Away" from my "Music". At this point I would have to be one "Lucky Star" for her to "justify my ...er song" to her.
;-)

Thank You Ed. eejits (idiots) nice. And yes when I write about insanity I happen to trick you by making a straight ahead pop tune. All in a day's work ehh? Thanks for stopping bye.
Steve

Omar

I am deeply humbled by your response. My goal was to make a house tune that would stop people in their tracks and have to think about war.
Your comment about the piano part giving you goosebumps gave me goosebumps. That's what I wanted for this tune.
I appreciate your comments
Cruhallelujah

Thanks Alex, no negative connotations taken.

"If all would dance, then there would be nobody left to fight."

Wise words my friend. Wise words.
I'm glad you got to share in the cautious tale of this one.
Cru

Thank You Ed. This little Blue-green ball is unfortunately showing signs of stupidity again. I hope that I am Wrong.
Steve

Me gusta comentarios agradables!
;-)
Cru

Thank You for that. This tune sets the tone for my loop work.

I think an Elephant stamping out a clown is missing as I HATE CLOWNS, other than that not sure what you are referring too?

Ah well thank you my friend. I hate clowns...seriously I HATE CLOWNS, that out of the way it does have a circus like feel to it.
Cru

Shit, I did not see this one so sorry for the late reply.

"
Your title is pretty much composition philosophy/technique - keep throwing stuff at a track and see what sticks and keep on going until you hit on a really cool riff, fill or whatever.
"

Not Exactly as I was very new to this at the time as I did it adn I really had no idea what I was doing or why I was doing it but it seemed to work when I mixed this with that and then with this I would mix that. It's my first post on looperman and one of the early tracks using Acid. It also was the genesis for me to start mixing genres, and that that was OK to do that. I should go back and remix this, but I think I will leave it as a monument like in a museum. It will remind me where I have come from.
Cru

Thank You, there are elements of trance in the second half of the tune. But it really is a collage of style, glad U enjoyed.
Cru

Thanks Wayne, time is a flying bye!

Hey mon, I know that I will never top Ottawa for you so that is ok. I like contrasts in music hence the xylophone and the beast bass. My total goal is to make it all come together at the end with all parts.
peace

Thanks Mate!

TY for the stars. Thy will be useful for making N-bombs and H-bombs for the D-floor. ;-)
Cru

Hey Thanks for that, I have very dark undertones in my music.
