Hi there Daniel,

Thanks for reviewing my Heavy Metal Rock tune.

Thought I'd come and see what you have up. About 50 songs I see. Nice to hear some clean guitar playing. I like what you have done with this song. The 2 guitars of course blend very nicely.
I haven't played my acoustic for awhile. I have a Mitchell brand that I use now and then. But I have been very busy at work most of this year, and haven't put out anything since April. :-(

Thanks for sharing it with us.
Randy

Hi there ChrissG,

Thanks for reviewing the Spanish version of 'Rock of Tallin'
Glad you enjoyed it. I don't speak any Spanish myself.

I like this tune her you put together. different than most I have heard. I haven't listened to much of any Dubstep at all.

Sounds nice with the added strings.
Thanks for sharing it,
Randy

Hi ya Kikajon,

Another nice pop/folk type tune. I like this one as well. Then addition of the mandolin is a nice additional sound. That is one instrument I never learned. Seems like the frets were to small to my eyes. lol

I would say you'd have a good chance of getting ahead in the music world if you advertize in the right places.

Oh....meant to ask...what does the 'ft' stand for? I see it in quite a few of your titles.

Take care and thanks for sharing.
Randy

Hi Steinaa,
Thanks for the nice compliments on my metal tune. I will see about doing another one then since so many liked it. It is not a genre that I enjoy the most is all. I did it on a dare. I don't like songs that people are screaming in so you can't even hear the words...However, an instrumental doesn't have that problem.
I'll let you know when I get another song done....just been working a lot of overtime, and haven't put out anything since April.
Thanks again for your reply to my comments about your song here..
Randy

Hi Allen,

Very nice sounding song here. I like the piano backing part. The lead playing seems too far into the background to me. It was nice but needs to shine thru more as your playing sounded very good.
Nice jumpy tune and I enjoyed it.
Randy

Hi Allen,
Just wanted to do a quick reply to this. Having a decent computer is important of course to be able to process the software. Of equal importance is your speakers attached to the computer. If you listening to music through 1-2" speakers with no sub-woofer, then it is almost like listening to a transistor radio. Decent computers are fairly cheap now, including laptops.

As for talent and or software you use....nothing comes to you overnight. It takes time to learn whatever your doing. How much you put into something is equal to what will come out as your results. I started learning guitar back in 1963. (Hmmm 47 years ago)
So with all that time involved, then you'd expect a person to be pretty good. I am on the downside....as I get older, I am slowing down...my fingers aren't as fast, etc. However, I still like rock music of the 60's-70's.

There is a lot of great talent here on Looperman and most are willing to help you with any questions you may have.
Randy

Hey Randy,one problem is a crappy computer that I must replace.You know what i'm going to say,no matter how great the software... and I have to learn how to use it also.but I won't let that stop me,I just have to work harder and longer for half the results.I do appreciate your comments,I gather you didnt just wake up one day with that pro sound,that a process was involved.I am thankful to this community for the loop support,enables you to still create music while you learn.
Thanks for listening and your review.

Hi Allen....getting over her to listen to this rock tune you put together. Very impressive I must say. I also have a Tascam 8 track recorder and used it when I first started recording off my Korg Karma. Used it for about 5 years...then stopped playing for a couple years and then got into Pro Tools and learned that which took quite awhile. I like all the effects you can get with out using hardware.
So in saying all that, just means with your playing ability and software, and loops, you can do just about anything you can think up in your mind.

So this song is really nice and the guitar parts are very good, and all the parts seem to fit well together. Most of my tunes I pay to have them 'Mastered' as I am also learning how to do that myself as I want them all to sound the best they can.

So just keep uploading your tunes and you'll gain a lot of fans that will also spur you onto making more and more songs.

Randy

Hello Brian,

Ahhhh a great tune featuring a synth sound in the background and the rain sound. I own a couple of Korg units and have not used them to their full extent.....yet.
The piano sound and strings sound really nice. The guitar playing compliments it all very well. Your playing is good and the overall tone is nice too.
I am sure vocals would add to this tune....but I can't say much as I don't sing, so all of my 27 songs except the last one I put up.....are instrumentals.

Keep up the good work in music creation, add some vocals and you'll jump up the ladder to a new round of success.
Randy

Hi Rei,

Here I have found an older tune with is very pleasant to listen to. Guess I must have missed this one back when it first came out. I like the neat music sounds going on in the background. Different parts taking turns coming and out and the bell like sounds really set it off.
Guess it would work well in a mystery type of movie.

Great job here and shows that you can do anything with music!
Randy

Hi again Vicen,

Another nicely put together tune. Sounds very nice....so I hope you'll be encouraged to upload more.

Randy

Hi Vicen,

Thanks for reviewing 3 of my tunes yesterday. You only have 23 to go! ha ha. As you'll notice, I try and do somewhat of a variety of rock, Alt., country, and blues...whatever mood I am in.
This song here you did is quite mellow and easy to listen to. You an your wife and friend did a nice job putting it together. As you make more songs and also advertise your songs debut in the proper forum, be sure to check the 'featured box' when posting your song(s)..so they will get replayed several times later on for those that missd its debut.
You'll get more reviews and that will spur you on to make more and get some ideas and suggestions from other listeners.

Thanks for posting it...
Randy

Hello John,
I see where you reviewed one of my tracks, (Country Waltz) but I never got an e-mail alerting me to that fact, or else I would have replied sooner.

Anyways, I like your mellow song you posted here. Very easy to listen to and a nice melody. You did a nice job on it. I see you only have 1 song up so far, so hopefully you'll let me know when you post more so I can listen to more of your ideas.

Randy

Hello there Rei,

I hear another nmasterpiece here! Elaine's voice sounds just like that one young girl in the 'Mad Max' movie...where at the end she is telling a bunch of kids a story about the future. Very nice indeed.

Your playing and arrangement is very good. Let me know when you get an album together, I'll buy it.

Randy

Hello Rei,

Oh yeah...you still got it. I love the heavy overall sound and bottom bass. When I also sometimes played bass in my band, it wasn't good until the sound waves moved your pant legs.. ha ha.

So this is one of your best songs I've heard to date. I like it alot....so keep 'em coming.

Randy

Hello there Steinaa,

Thanks for listening and commenting on my rock-metal song I made awhile ago. I appreciate your talents here as well in this cool tune. Lots of good guitar playing going on and it all is well organized. Your playing is very good and the whole song fits together well. I like the drums too. Makes me wanna do another metal tune. :-)

Randy

Hello there Hetman,

Thanks for lisening to my metal track. I thought I'd give a listen to yours here. Sounds pretty cool to me, and different because of mixing different types of music together....but it makes it interesting. Keep up the good work,

Randy

Well, that was different....than my tune for sure...ha ha..
I haven't listened to hardly any 'hip hop' as it isn't my type of music. Most of what I have heard in the past sounds the same over and over.

But your tune here was different than I have heard and I did enjoy listening to it. I appreciate your taking the time to write a review and will think about doing a hip hop type of song as either one of my Korg units have a lot of presets for giving a person ideas and hip hop is one of the genre on it.

I'll let you know when I do one and you can listen to it..ok?
Later,
Randy M.

Hi.......neat and cool track. Lots of different sounds and stuff going on in the background. I don't have any particular suggestions....just am enjoying the tune. Thanks again for listening to my punk tune.
Randy

Hi Wayne,
Thanks for steering me here. I just listened to this tune and I like the sound of it. I also appreciate JFW for recommending it to you.
I gave somewhat of a review of this song here when I replied to your review of my tune.

There is another 'Spanish' song in my profile I did you may like. It is called 'El Nino-Latin-Spanish'.

I will get around to listening to some of your other songs soon as well.....as I am at work now!

Later and keep 'em coming.
Randy

Howdy,

Great to hear some more country music on here. I like the song a lot and all the guitar parts came out very well.
I was just thinking as I was listening to it, if Toby Keith got a hold of it, he probably could shoot it up to the top pretty fast.

I also play some country myself. I play Pedal Steel, 5-String Banjo, and Dobro in those 2 songs I did on here, and in some of my Blues tunes, more Dobro. One is a country/cajun combo. A fellow in Louisiana gave me permission to use one of his songs mingled into that one, as I don't play Accordian or Fiddle. (I use loops for fiddle and harmonica sounds).

Anyways, very nice choice for your first song here. I hope your future will turn a lot brighter for you soon.
If you checked the 'Featured' box when you uploaded it, it will pop up now and then on the top right of the screen so others that missed it the first time around, will get another chance to hear it again.

If by chance you missed checking that box, you can still go back to the track and do an "Edit' and check the box, and then SAVE without uploading it again.

Randy

Hi there......

I see your basically a bass player? I also played Bass for a time when I had my own band. loved it. I have a 1972 Fender Precision.
I hear some Pedal Steel in here as well. I also play that. You can see the pics in my profile. I own an Emmons double neck 10 string with 8 floor pedals and 7 knee levers.

I also play 5-string banjo...but not much anymore. Love the sound.
You did a nice job putting this tune together. I also used Harmonia loops in my country/Cajun tune. Give it a listen when you get a chance. i think you'll enjoy it as there are no other real Cajun tunes on here.

The very first song I posted here was a country tune by the way. Just a short tune with some fiddle loops.

later and good job here,
Randy

Hi Daniel,

I am here as I said I would be checking out your 12 string acoustic song, but I did review that one awhile back. Thanks for mentioning it as a reminder.

This piano/guitar tune is very nice and I like the sound very much.
I suppose the only thing that could make it better would be the addition of string section. But sometimes a piano, and or guitar all by itself, just sounds so good....as this does.

Learning Cubase eh? I never tried that one as I use Pro Tools...and that was a bear. A good 6 month learning curve as I never used music software before. Good thing it came with hands on video....plus now many more are available here and there by different authors. Just so much you can do with these top programs today.

Good job.... bye for now,
Randy

Hello there Salkizar,

Just getting around to review a track of yours since you reviewed my Techno-Trance tune awhile back. I am working a lot these days and so really not much time for myself to make more music, etc.
Heck...I don't even mow the lawn anymore...I hire it done.

I enjoyed listening to your tune here. It was put together very well. Lots of different stuff going on. The voice makes it happen a lot too. Otherwise, it would sound more like mine...just an instrumental.
Very nicely done and would make a great dance tune.

Thanks for sharing,
Randy

Hello Spivkurl,

I am just getting around to review tracks from your listening to my last Techno-trance tune. Been real busy working all the time. No new tunes until Dec.

Anyways, I like this electronic tune you put together. Almost sounds like Robots did it. I've never tried an all electronic tune, but you did a nice job putting this one together.
Thanks for sharing it.
Randy

Hi there Fila,

Nice to hear another great tune from you. This review is in response to your review of my techno-trance tune. I am a little slow in giving reviews back as I am working 12 hours now everday.

This is a really great tune here you put together. I like all of it and no complaints from me. :-). Everything sounded balanced and was clean sounding.

Take care,
Randy
