Well i'm no expert on chill out but i like the atmosphere's that i'm hearing here. It's very funky and sort of leftfield sounding. You do a lot of different genres well so it's no suprize that this is nothing short of brilliant. Love the pad work, it's really dreamy and flows with the funky bassline perfectly. Dig the guitarish synths in the breakdown and i'm a little jealous of your soloing skills.
An epic piece of chill out that hits all the right buttons.
Niiice!!!

Really chilled out production. Has a lurking in the jungle vibe to it at some parts. Really digging the pads and sound choice. Has a cinematic flare as well, great work. Mixed real well too, peace
Sup Crucethus, first off i agree with the others. Has a circus vibe ( More so in the beginnning) but an seemingly transparent aggressive dreamy nature to it. (Idk if i can realistically combine those words, but meh i just did) It's transparent in the way it blends together nicely. Love that breakdown by the 3 min mark, interesting and creative mixture of sounds here. Progressively arranged track here, nice work! peace
sounds good to me. sometimes I just look at the wave form and can tell how interesting it is gonna be. I mean, there are discreet sections, and you can see that intensity levels change up. as for the sounds - it's very sophisticated and impressive from where I stand. peace.
Never heard this style of trance before, but this is good, picked up a couple of loops early and at the mid stages of the track that I have in my library, technically maybe not a trance piece in some ways but does have a lot of trance elements running through it, best part of this track I love is the arrangement, the way it has been done, gives you a few different tracks all rolled into one, but still keeps it in one track if that makes sense? which makes it extremely interesting for the listener, which this piece does...Fav'd...Thank you for sharing this enjoyable listen man...Peace n Respect...Mosaic...
Sorry I haven’t gotten back to you sooner as I don't unusually pay attention to this track much any-more since it was the first one I Uploaded on Looperman. This is more derivative of my style that tends to have many musical ideas, but as I like to explore... how do I weave them all into one and make it coherent? This is a very raw version of my thought process with looping. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Regarding Putin. He is not the bad guy. The West support's a Neo-Nazi coup D'état in Ukraine and call it democracy and the media lie about it. They also said Saddam had WMD even though it was not true.
Keeps you coming back for that segment. interestingly enough other parts of the song have caught peoples fancy in the same way. very interesting.
Steve
The break at about 1:20 was fantastic and very unexpected considering the beginning was so upbeat. But it really works to get the feeling from the description.
I love that as musicians, we can represent our sentiments, thoughts and feelings through the music we write. You used a lot of loops very creatively to convey your intentions here. What can I say that others haven't said, great track Steve!
Thanks Wayne. I really enjoy trying to use music alone as a way to convey thought or emotion. I am glad you were able to see that in this song. Many thanks.
Steve
Apologies for not commenting sooner ( I thought I had!) this was a track I played on my first ever loopradio show back in February, and rightly so. I love everything about this track, the way you set the scene, the subtle changes..but above all its a banging very well produced track. Thanks for letting me play it Steve.
For the club floor it will sound better, if it is not over-compressed. The over-compression sound make the music sound weak. The only thing that over-compression does is to make the music sound louder.
Mate is one very groovy housey number, excellent for the dance floor, wow impressed, excellent clarity and the arrangement very good, love the drops and builds, nice vocal touch too, mate will be back to check out more of your tunes after hearing this one...Massive fav this one...Thank you for sharing man...Peace n much Respect to you...Mosaic...PS can understand why it has so many downloads...Credit to you...
Thanks RI, I know what you mean about the loudness (compression) In this particular track it is not intended for the radio but the club floor. Also the contrast between the dance section and quiet section is also to set a tone for the listener. It was my chance to tell a story with music and all the melodies , beats pianos and even the dynamics contribute to that story..so you can get the message. i was inspired by this song which overwhelmed the clubs in the eighties by literally stopping people from dancing and making them listen. It is genius. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hRJFvtvTGEk&html5=1
This is an odd track. Rally not sure how that piano would go down on a dancefloor.
he banging bits are obviously just that. Maybe that quiet piano would confuse dancers. What do you think? I agree that it could probably be a bit louder. I do like it, though.
More of your favourite type of cymbals. The kind you don't get on a drum kit.
1:37 I like that transition (though not the reverse cymbal) and the heavenly stuff and the machine ##### stuff)
Beat return on 2:07 is cool and with that spoken word in there.
2:12-2:15 build is a bit like the Chem Bros.
2:15 and the dancers can get dancing again.
3:30 I like the new synth part. Reminds me of some old Daft Punk track I think. Not sure which one. Maybe Around The World?
Last 50 secs definitely something to confuse the dancers in the club. Native American drums and chanting? And choirs...
"This is an odd track. Rally not sure how that piano would go down on a dancefloor."
My goal is too stop the dancefloor in there tracks and really listen to the sounds. and understand that this melody has a story to tell. As we live our daily lives there are forces in the world gearing up for war. Just like before WW1 and similar to WW2. I composed this a year ago fully understanding that a conflict is inevitable in our generation unfortunately. Putin + Ukraine, China--Philippines Viet-Nam, and Israel Iran are the main course with a side dish of North and south Korea are the Japanese dessert course which will also have a bit of China.
The ending (50 secs) is a reminder of the conflicts of the past.
Just a musical pastiche!. I don't become political very often but I wanted to express those sentiments in Music.
How did I do?
