i duno.. are you line recording something?...
cool stuff tho!!!
wow... really cool.. love the tension you got in the piano..

wow.. yah lotsa pops and crackles..
hmmmm
(not loud enough to be clipping...)

check your cables? turn off your anti-virus or anything hogging your memory when you export this from your daw... That might help?

I would also defrag, and delete your temp files, and use ccleaner. get it from google. recommended...

I hope you get that worked out!
It's smoothed out a bit near the end..

Ummm I also thought the drums could be a bit more focal in the mix.. but that's just me...

Love it!

Can't wait to hear the shiny version...

on Shes All Ive Ever Wanted by GameboiX
I really like your synths.. they are giving me chills..
really off the beaten path..
I was reading your description and I love how you put that "you are writing the music you want to hear" I really agree with that, and I respect that.

This is really up my alley... I am loving this.
(I always try and add some constructive criticism, and I did feel the synth got a little repetitive... but you still mixed it really well...)

You are really talented... I will look forward to hearing more of your tracks! Thanks for reviewing me, as I might have never got to hear this.

Swing.. fuck.. misss... Swings .. miss...

dodge.. duck.. dodge. SWI----------ng... do----gde.

Levels sound great.
It gives me the feeling you are just taunting me which is cool...

UPPERCUT.
this track
Big up on the D/L...
I love it!
honestly.. if no one is gonna rap on this, you obviously need to rap, or just get creative in post production.

on Innercity by viralSHARK
Loving the ominousness!

Do you really want to know?

Well, levels bass wise are great! I love the progression!
That is a tight sound there!
But you are missing something! I just feel like.. you are missing vocals... which is always like a duh... but it Has a strong unique groove, that I really appreciate.

Awesome outro.
Love the swelling synth.. love the building...

You need something tho! something to really catch my attention. Some phased movies samples. Some vocoder, more robot voice...

It's just a bit bare, but albeit, BADASS. I really love the arrangement, it's almost perfect, but, you need something that is not in the groove to really make this shine.

Even like... ok... something from my crazy brain... letsay a GPS satellite robot voice taking me into the deep innercity... i mean.. you know? something.

I listened twice!

on Mouko- Made In Mexico (DVs screwdriver rmx) by DonnieVyros
I was just telling Elaine, this is my Fav! song on looperman.

lol...

A bit much on the vocals, but I still like it! Not DJ screw just yet... that guy is unimaginably listenable and awesome... Agreed tho..

I would blast somebody witha raw banana to this track, the whole time screaming DIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!

I like your rendition, but the original is still in my mind...

I suppose... I would do vocals, but... I can't rap very well.. I would just cuss a lot and rip off X-Raided...
DonnieVyros
DonnieVyros replied Unknown
I hear ya (and agree). And I was lucky enough to be able to score this before the site added the 'enable download' choice ages ago. Can't recall when I started mixing this, but I remember that once the vox were laid I wanted others to rap on it too. As for Screw, I wasn't trying to directly immitate him, but was just thinkin of his style and tried to take it in a similar Funky direction. As for rap, it's like music production and just takes practice (and pointers). It's kinda hard, but given enough time you'd be surprized at what you can do. As for the comparison, I'd have to agree in the remix's unfinished state. Though all I ever try to do with my basic remixes is to make it just as cool as the original (however modified and stretched out). Glad ya dug it. L&R!

on Walk In A Forest by Avail
WOW...

You need vocals.

You might just be best. This IS Better than a lot I have randomly heard tonight

(ohh.. btw.. I caught you randomly)

I would watch compression. (Slowly let it off)

Ahh...

I love it. And I press enter twice.

I love it.

All you need is a girl or boy talking about love or money.
Careful.. this one is worth money.

Every inch count's.. Just how hard your pushing those keys.. Listen to your drums? They need that same touch. Just get used to the feel of your Daw..

I really like this.

You need a hook.
You know that right?

and

You need a vocal line?

on The Projects by Fresco
I feel the chill, but ultimately there is soo much territory.
I feel the snap, but oh shit it is just history.

Great looping... Great sampling. I love it.

Space. I feel a dispute. Some kind of rap......

I love it. Really, I am happy looperman set shit up like he did, and i it was placed like this.

on Country-Cajun Mix by Randall822
Must be the redneck part of me. heheheh

Wow.. In one way.. I am like hell yah! LOVING THIS.
And then in the other... I am like... I have this guy's E-mail address!!!?!?!? WOW I kinda know you!! lol...

The first part... Like... Don't be upset with me, this is FANTASTIC, but to me, just my opinion, I did want the changes to be smoother.. It felt a little jigsawed, and the edges got frayed... But The fact you did this all yerself... Randy... You rule.... This hobby of yours is really bigger than you, because you really make me think about music and how to turn peoples heads.
(for example... I wanted the harmonica to breath more... Like I could hear him getting ready and finishing....)

lol... Wow, Loving the banjos. That legato guitar stuff and the phrasing.. wow (that acoustic lick is definitely the standout) followed by the really fantastic pedal steel, that was awesome, but I love that Whoooooooooooooooooooooo sound... It sounded like a party.. I am really awed. My mouth is open lol...

I really like the cajun part. I guess I do think of fairs and county music, but I think about my first love.... She loved this kind of music.

And I do too.

(Ps thanks for e-mailing!!!)

Randall822 replied Unknown
Hi Abe,
Nice to have you back. I appreciate you giving me a review back on this country/cajun mix. This is the real deal! Doesn't get much better as far as original sounds, but I can agree with you on the minor stuff.

Smoother changes from one part to another, harmonica breathing. (Totally all loops for this part) That whooooo type sound is a guy yelling something like Aaaaahhhhhiiiieeee. Typical cajun yell. :-)
Thanks for the review and again nice to hear from you.

It you wanna a rock tune to play along with, check out 'Rock my World' when you get a chance.
I left the lead guitar volume lower in the first part for that purpose.

on IsThisMusik by Krook
I would say that this very experimental!

Very much so! And in your crazy experiment, you created something that is a deep and strange emotional odyssey.

I was going to say, like if you did something that was just noise, or just crazy crazy crazy, like mixing ninths and minor 3rds and then going Major but then diminished... lol ... Jazz Trance.!

THIS IS LIKE LISTENABLE JAZZ TRANCE! lol!!!

Kinda.

heh.

The delay really sealed this one up, and the excellent panning.
You know... Perhaps you should start integrating some of the stuff you have done here and move that into more of your future songs. Which I trust you will..

I sooooo cannot get over abletons ability to record effects over and over with each take being singular but, together they can create masterpieces.

It's like an effect studio if you look at like that, and that is what is sooo cool about this track!
You managed to take the idea of 6 or 7 loops, and make a spider web! love it!

Favorited fer sure! and try some crazy stuff with the mastering plugs!! I would love to hear the drums go wacky!

Dude, I don't know you very well, but you have a fantastic ear for arrangement, and secondly, you have cajonas and stick your neck out, and don't give a damn. I really really really respect that.

Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and over expecting a different result.
So you aren't insane, but you are crazy.
Krook
Krook replied Unknown
Hi Abe
We are the crazies!!! I like getting called crazy its a nice way to be it keeps me on the ball.
Now I will need to try and remember everything I done in the track.
On tracks I used ping pong,dynamic tube,saturator,auto pan and compressor 1 on the master.
Thanks for the great review its means a lot coming from you :)
Regards

on Mary by Littbarski
I loooove how this continually changed.. Over each period of sound... And when the DEEP Drums kicked in. VERY NICE.
Can you make the drums seperated a bit? just stereo imagery?

Love it!
Great effects, and strings!

on gone fishin by FaithInSound
It is Indie... But yet... Complicated.

I love the chorus. It gave me chills!

Awesome drum work!

You could go digital and add synths or loops... but it sounds like you have a really good setup as is...

You need a vocalist... but all the vocalists I know are busy raising all their kids. heheh..

Great stuff.. GREAT TONE!!!

yeh thats my problem , everybody i know is raising kids as well.I am to so writing music is a once a week thing basically.

on circlebox Ft. alividlife by vicious4598
wow!

I could just send you some clean and on time mp3s???

I usually never use a metronome. And just go with feeling.

I do think you did a great job, but if you want some even timed loops just email me!

I love how it feels like a dream. It is flowing in and out.
I am super impressed that someone sampled my track, and made something like this!

I could work with you, just let me know what you need. Just Contact me!

I think in places it really really really works.. IN others it doesn't.
But I would work with you. (I am busy, but I can record simple stuff like this and we could collab?)
vicious4598
vicious4598 replied Unknown
yea we can and will collab >XD

im down for that, i really wanted to use like a country tone that time and the loop i cut out from that track you had fit perfect, i had to manipulate it a little ti get the timing but i did my best.

if you could send me some samples i would be more than happy to do work on them : )

on Rock Someone by beanut
I am grooooving to to this.

I love the voice. The super weird fretless bass.

Great layout....
I don't want you to get mad at me, but in my head, I heard something on the top, lmao, going eEEEEEeeeeaaaaaaaoooooooooohhhhh. and then changing accordingly to the progression.

Like a fake vocalist but synth... Like.. If a synth and a chick had sex, a baby shymanthesizerman screaming sorta.... that would sound awesome.

Like it! Keep it up!

on 7th Dimension by DaMann
I love that, that is cool, the chorus?

This is damn solid! I love it!

I know with me, personally, I would have shoveled sooo much noise on to this, that it woulda been less trance and more madness lol...

I really liked the refrain, I really got to drift off and daydream about life, while dancing!

Levels are fantastic!!!
Keep it up!

on project 5 by scratchrabbitt
A lot.

NO room for improvement. This has flaws that make it incredible.
Sounds that accent and compliment each other.
It's emphatic and aggressive.
It's a jungles graveyard.
It is deep.
Yet just skin deep.
Like a snowflake.
You are unique.

JUST LIKE EVERYONE ELSE.

LOVE IT.

FANTASTIC.

FAVORED, AND RECOMMENDED. DL'ed...

I would not trip if I heard this in a club, you just need the vocals now. heh...

There are plenty of crazy rappers..

Hahahahh, you wanna rap on this and I will rap with you.
That will RUIN this track. We should do it!

Dude you got talent!
I want more bass! I am gonna look at this, and I love the track!
You rock!

on Silent Acid Night by Littbarski
This sounded like x-mas 4 years ago when I was doped out. Lol..

Really cool.

I love this! Like... A lot of the x-mas songs I love... but this is something I would jam with the christmas tree burning.

I love it! You can't help but trip out during a lot of it.

Not completely listenable (it makes me think I am on acid lol), But completely enjoyable!

on Paranoia by TaraToxic
I love that, I am soo not a mimalist... I think I envy people who can mix like this.. lol...

Great levels, Great track!

WAYY TO SHORT! right when you ended it you should go minor, and then go back up to major, introduce a triplet hi-hat beat, something very rolling and aggressive, but turned down, so it's just here in the left speaker.

That's my constructive criticism.

EXCELLENT.
Signed worthy with some vocs.
