on Voyager by MCHN
Aaah..this is excellent ..getting that close to the bridge hard playing sound on the acoustic guitar to match the opening SciFi effects was brilliant...a seamless transition into the synth pads and viola we have lift off..At the moment I'm following a superb series "Voyage to the Planets" on television ,so this track comes as a very poignant backdrop for those images....an epic sound scape you've portrayed,but with the humanness that makes it all that more breathtaking and fragile...fantastic work! cheers planet :)

on Hybridity - a Subversive Dance by n0mad23
Great sound Sean!...It's interesting to note that "subversive" can only be perceived from a perceived position of morality,no doubt the missionary cadres of contemporary music will shake their heads in disbelief at this tune.......I can't escape the immediate Cajun like quality that the swirling accordion brings to this piece and nearly meta-morphs into a Hurdy Gurdy like phrase or what sounds like an amplified Clay stomach drum which powers the rhythm section..it's also interesting to note how well the vocals float on this groove(more about that later)...I'm always delighted to listen to the obvious and subtle nuances that your geographical youth has impressed upon you..it's like these experiences have gestated and are finally ruminated here in splendid examples of international musical cooperation......it's just plain funky to!....excellent work!..I need to get a real set of tablas(but am aware of how long it would take to master them,if ever)!..cheers Dave :)

You called the subversive nod spot on. I can't help but imagine lots of people shaking their head at this one. Hopefully I can be like that Zen teacher who occasionally smacks someone up alongside the head with a bamboo cane. For me personally, there are moments of unbridled sonic ecstasy that are truly amazing. I hadn't identified that hurdy gurdy phrase, but again you've called it - it does sound very reminiscent, doesn't it? I'm glad you find it funky, as I think it would fail without it. Thanks my friend.

on Temptation by minette
Some of the vocal phrases within this piece are just magic...beautifully poised with real presence...possibly because of the cinematic connotations I can see a mid point where the singing fades and the music swells for a bar or two..however this is in no way a criticism,I was getting swept along with the music and adapting it to an imaginary film....extraordinary! cheers planet :)
minette
minette replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
hey planet... let me kick off by saying - without your loops, some of my tunes would have never seen the light of day. i LOVE your stuff... and now a comment from you. :) made my day. so glad you enjoyed the track, and thanks for the idea of putting a break in the middle. maybe i'll do an extended "extra-cinematic" version of the tune. Hmmmm... i can hear it in my head already

on Woa by TheChrysalids
Interesting..it's way different in some regards to what I thought was going to happen!...but 10/10 for being inventive....You can record your voice and play it chromatically with a keyboard,go crazy and freestyle every which way,but anything you do with it is always going to be interesting...I'd explore this style a bit more,no one else seems to be doing it!..cheers planet :)

on Boolean Sequenced Karplus Strong 1 by Inventor
Hi Inventor..and welcome to looperman!...interesting sounds,what are you using as a controller? sounds like a rotary device,as opposed to a keyboard with octaves,there's a couple of circuit benders on the Loop,SpivCurl to name one...I've always found electronics interesting but only profess to know a little guitar circuitry and basic amplifier maintenance...behind every inventor lies an inquiring mind and untold projects I'm sure...nice to have you aboard!..cheers planet :)
Inventor
Inventor replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
planet, the controller is a Boolean Sequencer, which is a clocked binary counter driving logic into a resistive summing network. I know, technobabble, but that's what it is. I can explain further if you're interested and ty for your comments.

on dracula by pimvdorst
There's seems to be an over long delay before the track starts..a very Noir trance like sound which is very interesting and fits in well with the Dracula theme..great synth sounds and the track has good continuity...nice one! ..cheers planet :)

on you say by pimvdorst
Groovey!...hey man,this is a very cool sounding vibe you've got happening,quite jazzy with a smooth effortless delivery..this is more Chillout maybe..but hey who cares..it's a great track!..excellent ending!..I love thunder cheers planet :)

on ELECKTRON by siensystem
Hey Sien.....Trancelvanian big time..this track has excellent breakouts and layers..man this music would have been near impossible before sequencing and drum machines..drummers would have coronaries trying to keep up!...not to mention poor bass players wearing their fingers down to the bone...love that velvety synth in the later half...a very cool track....as to the levels their fine but I don't envy your mixing task here... Trance is probably one of the most difficult styles to get perfectly right,there are so many layers and frequency crossovers.... a lot of tweaking that's for sure!..super work..cheers Dave :)
siensystem
siensystem replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
Thanks planet and I completely agree. I can't imagine myself playing any of the instruments in this track, except maybe the clap lol. I greatly appreciate your visit and your kind words.

on when the weasels by zed
Hey MrZed...very cool indeed!..great continuity happening here,there's an excellent balance between your voice (thank God no autotune!)and the modulation within the music,which is upbeat and catchy..not to draw comparisons but it sounds like Frank Zappa joined Fireside Theatre..a cool combo Imo....the mix is very good as well..you've obviously been round the musical block a few times and are completely at ease with your creativity....super work!..cheers planet
zed
zed replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
very perceptive to mention firesign theatre, pioneers of surreal humor, a big influence. i don't mind being compared to zappa either, he is respected even among classical composers. both are from LA of course. you are hip to where i am coming from my friend & that is why your review is so satisfying. i communicated, yay!

on Death by Synthesizer by DeadPixel
Hey man..way different groove..heavy but funky..you gotta love the time signature,gives it a rolling slightly staccato feel...this would be an excellent track to use with some inventive time lapse photography....seeing as how this is a rolling expressive number maybe an abrupt element like an explosion or lingering heavy impact would be perfect for the final ending,just a thought...cool stuff..cheers planet :)

on drops by rei4real
Hey Rie...I remember the first version..man this track has changed..I liked the first version..but this has more...hmmm...BEEF!...superb articulation between the guitar and bass/rhythm line...you've been honing your keyboard skills I see as well...an excellent track from any direction...I also think one element of your music goes unsaid a lot of the time and that is it's universal appeal which undoubtedly inspires a lot of people to bigger and broader horizons in their own music..Viva rei!...cheers Dave :)
rei4real
rei4real replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
thank you Dave!!!
maybe that universal appeal you mentioned comes from my open mind and my way to listen to all music that I come across ... I played a lot of different music in my life, from classical to austrian folk music, pop and rock to jazz, I sang in different choirs ... and I loved everything I did ...
I guess you have similar experiences, that's why you are able to notice that ... ;-)
thank you again Dave!!!

peace, rei

on Hammer Gear by Obruno
Yeah! Rei has hit the nail on the head...super interesting perspectives brought forward through your playing..the 'thud' factor is alive and well..and in this case it's very articulate and very focused....I think the inherent imagery behind what your doing is a great asset to the music..I love vision..and your serving it up big time..great work! cheers planet :)

on Before the Storm (LE) by Obruno
Man....I can hear some alchemy going on here..this has amazing sonic trajectories..very amorphous,but with real control and a visual direction..to use a euphemism from today's contemporary culture..the peddle work is 'sick'! lol...this music has sounds between the sounds...gotta be a certain amount of Zen in there as well...very cool Obruno!..cheers planet :)

on My blues; Jump the Q by SLAPJOHNSON
Man..I was wondering how your old tunes stacked up against your recent stuff..how in the hell did I ever miss this track!..Bloody hell,this is great stuff Steve..you had it then,you've got it now...the only thing I'd say is lately your showing more bias towards your true calling which is Jazz...you play with confidence and style and never disappoint....fantastic singing I might add by Fiona....love it..cheers Dave :)

on Tanelorn by jfw
Very chromatic..this is a very cool piece..very clean..reminiscent of many things..quite visual..I think what I really dig about this track is the inherent silence between the notes,there's no background ambience and this gives it a pristine quality,add to that a very straight uncomplicated rhythmic beat and the result is quite remarkable and interesting...tres cool!

on rEvolution 3 - Forming Solid Bodies in Water by n0mad23
Now I know where all the guys went that used to produce the Twilight Zone..definitely required playing on the tape machine during filming of Creature from the Black Lagoon!....man(men)this is very very cool..a virtual test tube moment in audio production.....aahh this would be great in my favourite cheesy scifi flick Forbidden Planet..when the Brain expander machine fires up....music that ceases to be music and replicates itself ...this is a new Viric...you guys better think of an antidote before you try something new!....super result..quite infectious..cheers Dave :)

n0mad23 replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
This would MAKE a cheesy sci-fi flick happen! lol. I love your test tube invocation - though it's primarily and authentically Ambiance, we've definitely pushed it deep into the territory of Experimental music. "Music that ceases to be music and replicates itself" - yeah! Cheers for that. Music inspired by the transcription of RNA. No antidote in sight, but lots of temptation to experiment some more! Thanks Dave.

on Chiken Head by InfamousMonstro
Hey mate...this is a cool little number with an inherent sense of humour like it's upbeat title...I'm pretty new at listening to this mainly wave form style,but I think this has a great groove that slips right into the enjoyment zone without missing a step..nice one!...cheers planet :)
