Some of the synth stuff in the intro reminds me of New Order or The Cure. Has a pleasing tone. The 'hip hop' reminds me of trip hop or new wave. Pretty cool! Glad you posted a track! Have a good time on the Loop!

I'm not the best for memorization at the moment, but I know vocal talent when I hear it. If you want me to do some instrumentals and mixing, use my contact form. I dig this flow! Fave!

Have you ever heard of Sims? Though my knowledge of rap is limited, I find Sims to be the closest reference to this song. That is a great thing, as minneapolis rap is definitely some of my favorite. Has a good pop and electro feel, very unusual fusion, I love it! Fave!

This is a cool narrative that you are working on! I liked listening to this one, especially since it isn't a musical track in the strict sense... something we are not used to on Looperman. The recording sounds pretty good, and it was fun to hear. Nicely done!

I liked reading your nod to Prince in this description, and I am also enjoying this piece very much! This has a nice mid-eighties fusion feel to me, which seems to be so lost on many listeners recently. The flow and the mix are very good, and almost remind me of listening to a premium cassette on a great player. The guitar arpeggiations are just exquisite. I must admit that your song inspired me within a moment. I wish that I was in a better place to create something today, as there is some kind of great vibe going on today. Wonderful journey through the whole song... with many different facets and enjoyable moments. Love it! Fave!

I read your profile during the intro, and found your list of influences/faves to be interesting, and to make sense in the context of this song. I like the style! I see that you are pretty new to Looperman, so welcome! This sounds like it should be a 7 minute B-side to a cool eighties 7 or 10 inch vinyl. I'd say that it gets a bit more modern in the second half, but it's totally forgivable, especially considering that bass line. heh. I dig it! Fave!

I liked the atmosphere, and that led me to spiritually identify with the rhythmic structure. While it took me a while to arrive at "waltz," I think I understand where you are coming from. Reminds me of something which may have come out a decade ago, and I appreciate that. Very fun to hear! Great work!

This is some amazing jazz, which happens to be right up my alley! I love the way this is recorded and mixed throughout! The mix has a very live feel... I mean if I move around, the speakers give me the impression that the band is staying put, and I'm moving about the room. I like that. Very sorry to hear about your friend and band mate. This is a good recording to remember him by. I guess the only thing which I could wish to be added to the performance is an organ, but that is only my personal obsession. Ha ha. Thank you for sharing this awesome piece! Fave!

I enjoyed listening to this, despite it not being my listening preference. I thought the composition/writing was especially good, and I look forward to hearing it with vocals. I'm thinking that the mids and highs of those guitars will be in the way of the vocals as is, depending on the singer's range, but I'm sure that will be an easy fix. Other than that, I found this to have a good balance. Best wishes on the contest results!

I am enjoying the composition of this piece. Good feelings, and interesting intervals. To be honest, I would far prefer it if it were played on actual instruments, especially considering it is in the "acoustic" genre. I'm a bit of a purist in those sort of ways though. Writing a piece is at least half of the battle, but continuing it through to acoustic performance wins the war. Had fun listening!

Hey buddy, good to see you visiting the site today! I'm digging this tune very much! The sounds are more high fidelity than I expect from 8 bit stuff, but that doesn't take away from the enjoyment of the tune. I think you're improving! Hope all is well! Fave!

While this isn't my preferred style of trance, I can really appreciate what went into it. Mostly, I've just never understood what "progressive" means in regards to music, whether it's progressive trance, rock, or whatever... This is a cool arrangement, with some interesting sounds for sure. I think I'd have to agree about the level of compression or limiting in the final product. It's not too bad, but it could be far more dynamic without losing much loudness. I do like that portamento synth around 2:45... that part especially could benefit from more dynamic range... that would sound very cool. I enjoyed listening! Keep at it!

Big and deep sound field in this song! I'm liking the epic vocal recording and the crazy rhythms. Some good messages in here, and I always appreciate that in a song (especially a rap). Pleasing and expressive throughout! Great work! Fave!

Very cool and interesting divergence from what I've come to expect on your profile! I can't say that it is an uninvited divergence though! I like very much your work with gross beat on the vocal parts... that is a very useful manipulator. Synthesis is sounding excellent! All in all a very cool track in a style which I enjoy hearing. Fave! BTW, have been spending time on the drum and bass stems which you sent me a while back, and I hope to have something worth sharing soon! Take care!

Whatever you are doing to get this at the desired level, it is working. I like the sound of this! In all honesty, when you are working "in the box" with virtual synths and effects only, then there is usually very little wrong with simply boosting the gain (normalizing or whatever). I say this, because most plugins don't have any noise floor. As long as it's not boosted until it clips, it will probably sound fine. I like the artistry in this one, it's atmospheric and unusual! Keep at it!

Diggin this collab between some of my favorite hip hop loopers! I have to know where I can get a download of this. There are so many days in which this song would be helpful, I'm sure you understand. Any way, really enjoying it! I like the bounce of the mixing, it's very interesting! Dig it! Fave!

Very fun song this is! I don't know if you've heard of the group, but this reminds me a bit of Tiger Lilies, minus the crazy vocals. Enjoy their stuff, especially when I'm very inebriated. I could definitely hear this being great with your vocals, but I understand wanting to do instrumentals every now and then. Very fun listen, and good use of the virtual accordian! I just picked up another magnus chord organ recently, and can't wait to play and sample it... they have a sound similar to an accordian but use a keyboard which directs air from a fan through reeds. It's a model 399 from around 1970, and is the best condition one I've ever seen. Fun. Thanks for sharing this song! Fave!

Hey, it's cool to meet another artist from Poland on the site! I'm enjoying listening to this collaboration! The music is simple, but effective. I guess there is a part that sounds like it is emulating a guitar possibly... I would love to hear it played by a real guitarist! Mix is sounding good! I like the combination of styles in this piece, very cool! Good work!

I didn't see anything recent, so I'm listening to this one which got far too little attention. Sounds pretty sweet. Think I'm going to smoke that other bat now. ahhh that's better... I'm liking the rap a bunch. One thing I'm noticing in the beat is the "tops" (high hat and snare) have a bunch of artifacts like they are low quality mp3 or time stretched too far. I think I'm just getting picky, as I've been moving back to mostly vinyl and cassette for listening. Other parts sound better though. Trippy filter synth effects in parts of this track! Good to listen to one of your tracks again, and I hope you'll drop something frrrrresh soon. Well done!

Interesting dark style of hip hop! I don't usually listen to hip hop without some vocal or rap elements, but I am enjoying this! I like the string melody... it's got that creepy haunting vibe. Nice stuttering percussion effect going on in the left side as well. Good stereo noise in the outro, I love that sort of sound design. Well done, and welcome to the site!

Oh damn, this is exactly what I wanted to hear right now! Real punk on a real underground website. Fits my mood "to the T." You guys did great! If you feel like collaborating on a new punk song, please contact me. I need punk in my life, now more than ever! Fuck yeah! Fave.

Hey, you've definitely improved your skills since I've heard another song from you! Sounds real cool, and the delivery is on point. Glad to see you around the site still! Great work!

My first impression was wondering how this sounds as loud as it does with a waveform like that! I expected it would need to be turned up after hearing my song which I just replied to you on, but no it's actually louder! Sounds very good though, and would be especially cool in a film. A lot of sonic depth, and great use of the vocal parts! This is super creative. If you put out a movie, let me know! Fave!

Very cool and interesting composition here! My initial reaction was to reference Emerson, Lake and Palmer, if they had not been so tied in with rock and roll. Very similar sounds to many of theirs that I remember listening to in my youth. I'm partly Irish, but have little cultural reference to it. I can appreciate the peaceful feelings, and the instrumentation. This sounds like it is more complex than it seems. I enjoyed listening very much!

Interesting style of hip hop for sure. It's good to hear some more real instruments! My first impression was that the lyrics could have been delivered more accurately, but then I started wondering if I could do it even this well. So that led me to think that it's fine, and the accuracy will come with time. I did enjoy listening!
