Hi Orlando,

It was a choice between one of my newer pieces or an older track, but your comments after listening to it on loopradio convinced me to put Soothing Sea on looperman, so many thanks for your encouragement. A big thanks for listening again and for your valued comments. Yes I did overdo the bird sounds a bit... I wanted seagulls but they were asking too much!! Take care Orlando and speak soon.

Best wishes,

Mark/Larry!

hello and many thanks for your nice comment. glad to hear you enjoyed it :)

Thanx for your kind words Orlando!!

Hi Orlando!
I'm glad you liked this but I really don't have such talent!
Haha - but I wish I had of course.

All the best to you!

Thanks!

Thanks so much, Orlando. We appreciate your kind words. I'm not quite sure what 'airy production' is, but it sounds cool, so will consider it a compliment and thank you again!

Cheers,
Franco & Scott

Thanks a lot ! :D

Hell yeah i love my rock so it comes out in my hip hop! Thanks man.

Hi Orlando...the sax sound did come over really well and thank god for "Dump Score Log" in FL studio as the melody and touch just came together while practicing without recording!
Much appreciated
Steve

merci l ami pour ce com domr

Thanks. You know I've got high standards so tend not to upload things until they're in a really good, perhaps even complete state.

I really enjoyed doing the jazz drums in this. I have a particular love of jazz drumming though I guess I love all sorts of drums. Metal drummers are another level in terms of intensity. And sometimes complexity too though not necessarily subtlety! Danny Carey (from Tool) is definitely one of the very best heavy drummers.

This track actually uses the EZ Drummer kit from the drummer from heavy Swedish band Meshuggah (for the rock change sections).

I think my three favourite acoustic drum styles are jazz, funk and metal and I like to combine all of them. Rock is just what happens inbetween funk and metal. I'm also into some dub/reggae playing (see track Things That Should Always Be for that) as well country trainbeats and uptempo swinging jazz. Then there's shuffle grooves, which I've been using quite a bit recently.

Hip hop is a big influence too and I also manage to get a little of that into this one. I also love Asian percussion, particularly tablas so I guess I'm just into "good grooves" in general.

"Those 11 minutes were over ia a flash..."

Good to hear as I always worry about things dragging and being boring (as we've discussed before). But a good few people have said the same sort of thing about other tracks and them not seeming to last as long as they actually do.

Thanks for checking it out.
