Such a chill groove. That piano had me hooked at the start. If this your first song, then you have lots to look forward to :) I don't know if its just me but the bass sounds a bit out of tune at the start. Great work overall, sounds great. Good structure!

MisterBloodworth replied 18th Jan 2016 - 10 years ago

Thanks man! Good looking out. I caught the beginning bass being out of tune this morning! I've corrected it now, so that should be taken care of. Much appreciated again! Cheers!

on Smooth Rnb gets UNTRAPPED by ronabo

Wow, now this is RnB!! That relaxed, jazzy-style groove with the beautiful piano doing its runs, the keys doing those juicy bass chords, the drums maintaining their energy. This is definitely a great track. My favorite part was the keys that do a run at 1:56 and onwards. So smoothly played. Awesome job with the key changes as well, they were in good taste :)

Thank you BradoSanz, I am glad you enjoyed it. I appreciate all of your comments. I do think the key change adds a little color and flavor to it.

on Wolf in sheeps clothing by wordybum

I was reading your response to Static Nomad on EQ and a word of advice: it is usually not recommended to EQ an instrument solo. Something that sounds great on its own may not sit well when put into a cohesive mix with other instruemnts. I usually tend to EQ by group: guitars, synths/pads/strings/etc and make sure each section has its own part of the frequency spectrum it "dominates." This also helps to clean up the sound. For instance, you dont want unneeded high frequencies from my bass affecting my guitars so I'd trim off all the higher end on the bass and trim off some of the lower end of my guitars - now, the bass is not affected by the guitars and vice verse - each instrument has its place.

Just a thought :)

Wow, if this is your first song, then you have a lot of talent :) Did you use loops or made the song from scratch? You have an ear for this stuff, I can see that much!

If you want to send me the stems (your lead vocal, the harmonies, the music all without effects or EQing) I can mix and master them to try and get a more professional sound :) Let me know!

on the-light-is-gone by Diwey

Wow, you had me hooked at the start. Those are some very unique synths with a catchy arpreggio. Wow.....As this goes further in, I'm falling more in love with this! Definitely downloading. Totally impressed by this. The drum beat is classic and the synth does a neat little progression that I adore. Beautiful work. That female vocal is edited beautifully as well. Great work!

on The Darkness -GoldenOokami New Years Remix- by MisterBloodworth

What a way to start off the new year! I absolutley dig the part at 2:45ish. That solo synth is perfect against that bass line. A little boomy at some parts but overall a very powerful idea. Great work, I love this!

Absolutely beautiful. I could imagine this seeing this in a movie. You have so much emotion carried in such a few words. Powerful, emotive, touching - everything I find so attractive in a good song. Thanks for using my loops :) Your voice is the definition of beauty!

on Modern Disease by Spivkurl

What mic did you use for the vocals? This was an extremely unique and catchy tune. Your voice is so intriguing to me. I want to stay and take it in because it sounds so different than what I hear on the radio, and that's not meant to be a bad thing. I like the uniqueness your voice carries. Those synths are always top notch as always. I'm glad that you're part of this forum and look forward to more of the music from your newest album :)

Brado

Spivkurl replied 3rd Jan 2016 - 10 years ago

Hey buddy! Thanks for stopping by to listen! The microphone used on this one was my "100 Proof" electret condenser, which I built last year. It's actual a stereo microphone, but for vocals I just use one side (they have separate output jacks). Thank you for the compliments about the vocals. There are probably a few reasons for my voice sounding different from the usual radio stuff - a big one would be my background, as I have spent time in many different parts of the US and canada throughout my life, and picked up a conglomeration of the local accents. Also I have smoked various smokeables pretty much constantly for 25 years. Then there is my on and off obsession with European music and film (especially UK and anything Eastern Europe). In all honesty, a large part of the album is already posted here on Looperman, though some have updated mixing and/or mastering on the album (haven't updated the others yet). You can download it for free at wearerecords.com though. Best burned to a CD and played on a hi fi. Thank you for the nice comment!

on Walking In The Rain by MGproduct

I love that big house you got. The guitar adds lovely happy vibes that I really think help the song get a happy impression across. It's quite lovely. The bass is a bit overbearing in some parts (1:30 for example) but overall, this is definitely a hot track, even if it is a bit generic, which isnt a bad thing in this case. Great work, I'm looking forward to more :)

Dang, this remix is fire haha. I really like that bass. Smooth and silky, though imo it feels a tad bit lacking in presence. Besides that, awesome accompaniment and flow. You've definitely got a knack for trap, you need to make more of this stuff haha :) Cheers, great remix!

on Extra Set Unknown by DextDee

I like that clap sound. It stands out to me in a good way, and I don't know why. Is it an organic sound or something from software? Sounds really good. Gives a lot of space to the drums and the track overall. I like this a lot. Great work!

on Marnie Grant - Flying Away by MarnieG

Ahhh, those wide strings. So silky and wide. And I like the bass part as well. The way it works with that progression is beautiful. And the flute part really makes it all come together. The riff it plays really is catchy. Great work, the drums could be mixed a tad better, but it's not bad by any means. Sounds a bit odd in the mix - could be something that is caused by the frequency spectrum of the drums when layered over the instruments. While it stands just as well on its own, I think maybe making a bit of room in the frequency spectrum may help it to fit in just right to make a more cohesive whole.

on In Too Deep by ImproveWithError

Wow! I just came across this! I really dig the loosiness of the track. Feels raw, real. That bass provides a lot of punch and drives the heaviness into the song. Great work, always lovin' your stuff :) Btw, your mixing is improving!

These strings are from Spitfire Audio's Albion 1.. beautiful to use, powerful & soft. These ones are layered and EQd.

on My Groove by ChaseManhattan

There's something about that drum beat that I find absolutely addicting. I particularly liked your rhymes and the way you pronounced them, but there were spots that the music over-powered your vocal to the point that I couldn't hear what you were saying. It's definitely original, almost old-school in it's vibe. Your voice fits it perfectly.

Overall, I really enjoyed listening to this track enough that I had to log in and make a comment while listening to it again.

Originality: 9/10
Lyrical writing: 8/10
Mixing: 6/10
Overall Impression: 9/10

Great work, could use a bit more work on the mixing end.
