Yeah I can hear some differing directions happening on this one..it rocks along though..I think Rie's right about putting up the instrument volume a bit...cool tune...cheers planet
Super sound!...I really enjoy a good visual journey in music and this track delivers....or will be destroyed!..haha..great line ..excellent work with impressive production values.....cheers planet
You know I'm finally starting to understand the difference between East,West coast,Dirty South etc(thanks in no small part to you and my drum software)...this is a great beat!...the synth line is right on the movement....I'm really diggin' the space in this style,very uncluttered and polished..excellent work(as always)...cheers planet
Now I'm no song writing expert by any means.....There's one bit I would change though, after the finger style intro you start singing in syncopation with the strummed chords...I'd keep that part with no modulation...just sing the passage straight,and let the guitar bounce around at the edges.....the devils been defeated part is perfect...just my take on it...cheers planet
I'll try playing around with that. I had this as an instrumental for a while before I did the lyrics. Just picked up the guitar and tried it took me a couple of times to get it. But I like it. gives more seperation to the 2 vocal parts. I think I like it. I'll try recording that way in a couple of days and see how it sounds. Seems good though. thanks for the advice.
Jeez..here's another great track that seems to have been overlooked...bloody hell!..this is cool stuff..Hey GS....you need to get this gear up in peoples faces more..are you posting your tracks in the forums?...if not get into it mate!....this music is as good as a lot of other more publicised tracks on this site......get it out there it's great!.....oh just as an aside ..maybe a fadeout would have improved the ending..small potatoes....cheers planet
Sheesh!...how can people dl. something and not pay their respects to the artist???????...anyway GirlSonic just for the record..this is a wicked track...I really like that subtle change right at the end of the piece..I would have extended it some more......but all the ground work has been done....great work...cheers planet
Hey GirlSonic.....excellent beat you've got started here!...there's a lot that could be added to this track and not detract from the quality...but I sort of like it just the way it is......plenty of space to let it just run and groove....way cool in my opinion....cheers planet
Now there's good and better this is way beyond that!...What a fantastic natural instrumentation caught in part for us here...Wow! quite breathtaking...the difference is amazing when there's a real person behind the rhythm...such a big full deep sound...mix that up with other pro muso's...well the outcome is always going to be brilliant!............marvellous work Bud..to say I'm impressed is an understatement...bravo!....cheers planet
Nice!....that rhythm repeat works well..and the guitar becomes more of a percussive instrument....a bit of an abrupt ending though...I would have preferred a simple fade out or an echoing drum triplet.....cheers planet
Let's not inhale any old fungus spores!.....Hell the creature is waking up!....great work..I like the question and reply phrases in this piece...cool and dark....cheers planet
Excellent!...Hi Jezz..first visit to your page...great differential rhythm segments,it gives a shifting pulsing vision of the unexpected...very cool work!...cheers planet
Fantastic sound!..wow Robert!..wow!...what a great mix...fanfreakingtastic vocals........that is one of the best sounding fretlesses..deep and clear.....Ha!..I like the way you paraphrase your description..(no weird jazz solos or confusing parts)Damn!..their my favourite parts!.....I vote we lock down the genre pool to just jazz for a month and re-educate the Looperman community...(and close all the doors and windows so nobody can get out!).......tips me lid on this one...cheers planet
thanks David,for me you´re one of the most distinctive listeners.....always respecting style and genre of musicians and that´s your personal quality ........and also having posted lots of beautiful and excellent work with all your tracks you´re interested in tunes of every single member and always give very constructive comments to anybody of this community.......glad that you´re in here......thanks and take care,Robert
Hey mate...nice modulation in your voice..love that phasey guitar....You know I remember you saying how you'd been ridiculed at another site for your beliefs...I don't think your ever going to have that issue here..this place is civilised in that regard...so while the description of your song is true I don't think it warrants the disclaimer...In fact more power to you for singing about something that has real meaning to you..the more the merrier...cheers planet
Thanks for the kind words. I enjoy singing that song a lot. And I believe you're right. I should just state that it's a religious song and leave it at that.
I like nothing better than a good guitar blitz!...and I mean blitz...this is great!..it's like a giant snowball...nothings going to stop it and it just gets bigger and bigger...nice bass underneath this rampage with some subtle changes and pauses...great ending to! that's really important on a piece like this...a lot of people would have just run out of steam and deflated the whole track...not you....excellent work!..cheers planet
Hey mate...sweet tune!...love the strings...I sort of agree with Rei, it's hanging for a bass line..however I like it the way it is..sometimes when you leave out some instruments in a mix it gives it space and a different dynamic......cool and clear work!...cheers planet
Hey MrHen...Welcome to the Loop...I hear your a student of Slap's.....we can all learn something from the maestro!...great tune mate...the way it phases in and out is great....I'm going to be a regular visitor to your page..this is great quality work!....cheers planet
I guess when it comes down to it,the fundamentals apply in the creative process...Conceptualise-Act upon it.Is it the clear first thought that crystallizes or the unembellished execution of that thought?...whatever the case may be the result is the same....an amount of soul has been transferred from the artist to his work....not an easy task that can be duplicated every time....these are the special moments.......you have quite a few in your tracks....but ones like this stand out for me.....sparse,distant yet intimate,no hangups or issues just plain simple music from the soul.
Hi Dave,wow what a review and analysis of a track, I know what you mean though. Sometimes the best songs
are the ones that have no boundaries, there free and expressive and allowed to breath and develop naturally, "keep it simple stupid" seems to spring to mind, or am I barking up the wrong tree! I'm confused now, Crap!!! Maybe I should go and write another song, my head hurts.. Cheers Slap...
Cool rocking..being an old rocker this is like coming home for me.....didn't we all grow up on this stuff!,,,great guitar by the way!...Oh yeah mate..you mentioned some more material you had..by all means send it over the ocean into my mailbox and I'll see what I can do...I'm going to have to return the favour soon as I've just got the glimmer of a project in the back of my brain..it's only coalesced into a few bars so far..but we shall see....again great track Steve...it's got me buggered how you can explain to your other half....."Oh sorry Luv..won't be home for tea...got to go practice with the girls."...you must be a magician is all I can say!
Gritty rootsy style you've got going here..I love that old Wurlitzer sound,takes me back....a really interesting mix of instrumental elements combining to make a modern sound over the classic Hip Hop beat...cool! cheers planet
Thanks man. i love the Wurlitzer myself also and thought how i could use it without it contrasting too much with the lead guitars..but i think it goes well with it. Thank you for your review..peace
You know it's funny while this tune would be a great vehicle for vocals...I just love it the way it is..introspective and gentle..great thinking music!....great placement of the piano in the mix,just the right amount of echo......very sultry and summer day cool!.....great touch on this one....cheers planet
Wooow thanks Planet! Your comment has to be in my top ONE of the more encouraging comments...
I like it as it is too, but if someone is in luurv, it would be nice to hear them with this as a backing track.
Thanks for reviewing it.
Cheers S.
Track's like this more than anything else help broaden peoples horizons......this is way,way cool with a groove all it's own...as I do when listening to opera I don't understand the lyrics but that doesn't stop me thoroughly enjoying it...in fact it adds a mysterious element to the mix for me...superb!...cheers planet
What a delightful song.....unencumbered and uncomplicated..lots of space for a great acoustic mesh of guitar and vocals ..elements such as the harp and delay echo are great!...I'm really diggin' this one....beautiful work!....cheers planet
Well it has been said that when your sick of the blues your sick of life......great piece man!...love that tele sound ..it's unique..Junior Brown would approve and he's arguable the best slider and picker going around at the moment...excellent clean tone ..my ears are just soaking it up!...cheers planet
Hi there Planet,
Glad to hear I would be able to please Jr. Brown. I'll never be as good as him though. ;-)
I'll do another Blues tune sometime later on......now I want to see what I can do with a 12 string.
Thanks again for your nice comments.
Randy
Ahh....that patented Rei guitar sound..one of my favourites!..This is very melodical and has a great reflective quality with the mandolin and synth behind your playing......the percussive echoes in this piece are excellent...sets me in mind of an epic tale or journey......this really is a marvellous combination with Devodale........cheers planet
