on Back Home by orchardstudios
Hey man,

This is extremely beautiful. The combination of the piano and the violin and the drums and the everything, it works so well. It has that pop ballad feel that makes it sound very professional.

Just try to mix it up a bit, because the chord progression stayed the same throughout the entire track and it gets a bit boring after a while. But the overall mix and mashup is amaeizing!! :D

Keep it up! You are a master with vocals and ambience.

on Heavily Medicated by neuromancer56
Goedendag,

I am in love with this track. It is so well-designed and contains a lot of emotional power, it has that extra layer of feeling that gives it so much more depth and personality! THIS IS AMAZING

It works very well as the backstory of something, like a game, or movie. It has so much potential, will you please do something cool with it?

The only thing that bothered me were the drums. They are very crisp, but don't deserve all that attention. Maybe mix them up or make them less apparent.

Keep up the great work!! If you don't I'll be very sad :(

on Drake x Jhene aiko Type beat - Hew by theills312
Hey there,

I like this track. It has an amazing pad over it with a nice guitar and synth riff. Perfect to dream by. I also liked how the rhythm changed from a 4/4 to a 12/8 beat due to the guitar riff. You implemented that perfectly! It's a nice twist. Me like :)

Keep this style going, it is very unique and lovable!

on Symphony of the Bells by hanorotu
Hey there,

Nice little beat you created there. Very elegant but hard too. Just keep an eye on your limiter or compressor, the bass of the drums was suffocating the bell at some point.

Also try to mix things up, change the rhythm or instrumentation somewhere half way to keep the song interesting, and mayhaps I suggest findig an existing rap or a rapper to fire some lyrics over this beat! That will give the song more personality too.

Furthermore it's a good track. Keep it up! :D

on I Died A Little by mildperil
Hai there,

Wow, omg, damn. You have an amazing voice! WHY HAVEN'T I HEARD FROM YOU BEFORE. This is such a beautiful snippet I don't want to call it a "song", but something like a trip, a feeling, a breeze. Idk I'm getting weird.

Try to work on sounds like this dude, they are so unique yet easy on the ears. Add some drums, build a full song, add a wonderful message. THE POTENTIAL IS DRIPPING FROM MY SPEAKERS. I don't know if that's normal but DO SOMETHING WITH IT.

Great sound, amazing voice, good stuff. Keep it up :)

Hi there, thank you for such glowing feedback!

I'd have to agree that it's not really a song as such, and that's kind of what I was aiming for, as I'm a big fan of film music and was going for something along those lines.

I hope to make more traditional songs in the future, so I'll be following your advice.

Thanks for stopping by and listening, much appreciated.

on Escapism Escapades by Allochtune
Hey man,

What a cute track. Those little plucky squary harmonies and the very humble drums give it such a sweet feeling.

Also the arrangement is very elaborate and full of interesting changes en melodies, I can feel the work that you put into this. I highly respect these kind of tracks so keep it up! Despite the longer-than-average length it didn't bore me out.

I get some strong 8-bit videogames vibes from it as well, which is cool. It does mean that the track sounds quite bare and basic: the synths all sound like they have only one wave form and that's it. But this could be a style that you adapt, I dunno.

ALSO MAKE IT LOUDER. YOU LEAVE A LOT OF SPACE UNDERNEATH THE 0 DB LINE. DON'T BE SHY, CRANK IT UP. Don't overcompress it though.

I hope you like my rambling. If you didn't, I'll just say: its good

on Smashed by Nodog
Hey there, wild track you got there. Very techno-ish indeed. I like how you made it so nice despite it's mainly based around one single note.

Just make sure not to compress it too much to avoid the distortion. Furthermore nicely made track! I'm just gonna dance some more here.

on Jolly Dance by Ludwigbroo
Hey there, this is a very nice track. I really like to offbeat rhythms in the bass and the melody is undeniably strong and sweet. I'd turn it down on the reverb just a little bit, but this is a small very thing. The mastering is straight-up professional, so well done :D

A few questions: Did you use other people's loops for the intro, or did you create that saxophony sound on your own? And are you a big fan of Nexus?

Again, awesome track and well produced. Keep them coming!

Mr. Spook'd
Ludwigbroo
Ludwigbroo replied 3rd Jan 2018 - 7 years ago
Thank you for the awesome feedback! Yes the reverb might be a little bit to much, something I will bring with me for the next track :) No loops, I bought the exhale pluggin that have amazing vocals. I mainly use Sylenth1, nexus and kontakt pluggings.

Thanks again!

on SupErNovA by BLEEP
Hey there,

Very nice intro to the track with the riff of the different instruments. The bass is fantastic! The music flows so well and natural that it seems like the song wrote itself. Very well done :) next time maybe add some more reverb to the different instruments to make them feel more real.
BLEEP
BLEEP replied 8th Sep 2017 - 8 years ago

on I remember us by Zivonmusic
Very simple yet effective track. It feels a bit empty overall though, maybe you can add a bassline throughout the song? The nice variation in instruments keeps it very fresh and the little drum accents are so subtle but effective! Very well done :) keep up the good work!

on Bruises by toastedavalanche
What a beautiful track. Very easy to listen to, but also interesting. This track shows your talent and what you can make in just a few hours! I hope you find a way to fix your audio interface or another way to let the creativity flow, just don't give it up. That would be a waste.

on Roads by Dumbasswolf
Interesting track. The pad had control of the track at all times which makes it indeed very progressive :) Try to create a more easy melody for this, so that it appeals to more people and it stays in your head (if that is what you want of course).

on The Chase - Volca Experimentation by Allochtune
Hey there,

Very interesting and well-rounded track. The simple 8-bit style really compliments the different synths and the lack of reverb and other effects give it this simplistic, clear sound that makes you appreciate it more. It really stands out and I like that! Ga zo door :D
Allochtune
Allochtune replied 5th Sep 2017 - 8 years ago
O hi!
I thought I turned off my featured song, but I didn't. Woops! Thanks for listening though! This was a test song to see what I could do with minimal effects. Although you probably need effects to make some things sound better! Anyway, thanks for the nice words! I am glad you liked my minimalistic approach :) En bedankt!

on Beautiful Chaos by jesusbronze85
Hey there! Sorry for the late response, I had some time off. I love the use of the loops and the vocals fit perfectly, but I'm even more impressed that you made this in Mixcraft, which in my experience is not the best DAW. I will reconsider that now after hearing this.

Thank you for using my loops and mentioning me in the description, it's really appreciated! And keep on making amazing tracks like this one :D

jesusbronze85 replied 28th Aug 2017 - 8 years ago
How could I not credit you? YOU MAKE AMAZING THINGS. If it weren't for your loops I wouldn't have made this song so THANKS! AND I AM SO GLAD YOU LIKED IT! I tried to make justice to the great job you made!

on Modnex - The Magic Pond by Modnex
Great track, easy to get lost in. The simplicity is what makes it so beautiful and immersive at the same time. Something in the low frequencyspectrum can add some extra depth in this piece, and I think a few percussive hits can give it some energy. But I really love it as it is now, those are just things I would try out.

Keep it up, I've noticed you do a wide range of genres and I like that, inspiring :)
Modnex
Modnex replied 24th Jul 2017 - 8 years ago
Hey SharpNotes, I agree with you, sometimes simplicity is what a track needs to give it that extra push. Not all tracks need to be super complex to make it good.

The tip on adding to the low frequency is actually a really good one. Not exactly sure what I would add to give it a boost, but will definitely experiment with things. Will also try out your percussion tip too.

Thanks for the great feedback,
Have a great day!

on Obokuri by giuliomusic
Hey there!

Good song, just a little repetitive as Modnex already said. It sounds really good tho! Maybe a nice melody line to stir things up next time?

on 80s Theme House Song by BeatsbySamu
Hey there!

I really like your track. The 80s vibe build up works really well in combination with that fantastic drop. I like those unexpected drum hits in the build-up as well. The drop is just so simple yet so effective. I love it :D very well done!

on Sleepless by WithoutMyArmor
Hey man,

I just listened to your track, and I'm speechless. It sounds wonderful, you did amazing with the guitars and strings and vocals and solo and basically everything. This is really a pearl in between all the Looperman tracks.

Couple of tips to help you further: I think that some percussion would do this track good, or just more rhythm overall. Don't forget to vary a bit in your melodies / rhythm / chords to distinguish one part from the other, and give it more energy.

I love this track man! Keep it up! Can't wait to hear the finalized product, if you're going to post it here as well :D
WithoutMyArmor
WithoutMyArmor replied 25th Jun 2017 - 8 years ago
Thank you! I'm very glad you enjoyed it! And thank you for the tips, I'll try to find some fitting percussion and there are some more revisions I'd like to make. I'll try to add some more movement to distinguish the verses from the prechorus and chorus. I've yet to write a complete bridge but I feared the song was already quite long!

on BSSMNT - Untitled Peace by Searz
I really like the classic house vibe in this one! The beat works very well with all the other elements. Maybe add some more higher tones in your next track, I know this is bass house but still. Keep it up!

on Ghost by Squyres
I love the music in this track! The chords and melodies sound really good and catchy, I can easily imagine hearing this in the club. Just a few protips however:

I've noticed that you use compression (which is recognizable by the brick form of the sound wave visualisation), try using a limiter, equalizer or just a mastering plug-in instead. And try not to distort too much, the toms and fills for example are a bit too crunchy for my taste. That's up to you however.

It sounds really good tho!

PS: I accidently downloaded your track. Didn't mean to, sorry about that :P

on Light It by Lorbemzo
Great preview! It has some sweet rhythm going on. The Adele slices are very well done too. Just one tip: try to bring the bass line more to the front, as it feels a bit faded with the big amount of reverb on it. Get something plucky and deep, I think that would work.

Good luck on finishing this sweet track!
Lorbemzo
Lorbemzo replied 27th Apr 2017 - 8 years ago
Thanks for the feedback! I'll make sure that I take your words into consideration. By the way, the Adele vocal slices were not made by me, and unfortunately, I could not find the original source for the loop on looperman.

Thanks though, and sorry for the late response.

on Chovich -All I got by Chovich
Sounds really good! I love the rhythm and the melodies. Very well done. Just a pro-tip: add more reverb and decay to your piano, or more layers, to give it more of a lush and full sound. I really like this track, keep it up!
