I like the message of this song. Well put together. I like the background vocals and what they add to the main vocal. I could picture this song being played on the radio. It shows a lot of awareness of what makes a popular song popular and you incorporate all of those elements here. Great track. I enjoyed listening. Kper

Great song. Great message. I appreciate your view of the purpose and mission of your music- I wish there were more people who felt the way you do. I like the piano loop on this and how the bass really supports the melody. Good variety and chorus. Thanks for the courage to blend faith and music- they both seem to enhance the other in your tracks. Great work. Kper

I love the interesting sounds- the guitar as well as the piano sounds. Everything fits together well and is tastefully done. It has its moments of relaxation and then intensity. I love the dichotomy and both enhance the other. Great track. Kper

I enjoy cerebral trance and this definitely fits that need. The melodies are not cliche but are instead very unexpected in a positive way. The chord progressions are interesting and the way you layer the chimes sound on top of the other sounds (the slower chimes with the faster sounds) adds not only another layer of sound but also an interesting layer of tempo. It is contemplative trance that generates as much thought as was put into it. I enjoyed the listen. Kper

Very contemplative. I love the use of background vocals and echoes that add interesting layers to the already interesting main vocals. I like how you drop the octave of the vocals toward the end- it is a really nice effect. Very beautiful and skillfully done. Thanks for sharing. Kper

Great track. Simple but emotional. Great combination. It let me just sink into a mental picture and stay there for a while. I appreciate when artists such as yourself can create this type of music which allows me to just relax and enjoy some good creative atmospheres. Great job. Kper

Great pads. I love the chord progressions- unexpected but satisfying as well. Great rumbling bass just to balance out the treble pads. Interesting ambient with creativity. A sense of floating as I listened. Great drum work as well that compliments the whole piece- they seem deceptively straight-forward but as I listened closely, I began to hear how creatively complicated they actually were. Definitely enjoyed the song. Great job. Kper

Amazing. I like the Asian influence that goes along with your inspiration. Very interesting. I like the quiet string pads in the back that add a subtle layer. I took the liberty to download with my compliments to you as the artist. Keep them coming! Kper

Very interesting and fun. Great guitar work. Creative and unexpected. Impressive electric piano riffs. I love the "merry go round" break in the middle- shows a sense of humor and creativity at the same time. Very professional. Everything is perfect. Thanks for giving me a 4 minute 41 second break from reality. It was fun! Kper

It had a great progressive 70s feel to it with the heavy bass and drums that fit the song like a glove. I could see the spirit of Emerson, Lake, and Palmer rising up out of it. I really like the bass progression and how you made everything else blend with it. It was very professionally done with an obvious attention to detail. I enjoyed listening to it. Kper

This is Chill Out with personality. It has an island feel- like a bunch of musicians on the beach just chilling out in the night. It is very smooth. I like the strings pad in the middle of the song. The electric piano was great as well. I love when artists can find a way to create great music with just enough sounds but never too much or too little. That balance in sound helps to enhance the chill out aspect of the song. You have expertly accomplished that here. I enjoyed the listen and could just kick back a little. Thanks for the experience. Kper

Wow. Great intro- I loved the chorus sound and the voice countdown. Great construction of the rest of the song. I would use the word "dreamy" as well. Good variety in sounds and beat. Thanks for sharing. Kper

Very haunting. Very interesting. Sometimes when a person changes different sounds, they don't fit well together from section to section. But that is not the case here. They all fit well together with their dissonance and tone even though they are very different sounds. The wailing sound of the guitar or violin (I was not sure which it was- which is good) made my heart beat a little faster. There was something very primal about it. Great creativity. This one hit my brain and my heart at the same time. I enjoy that feeling. Great job! Kper

You have such a touch with mixing the guitar, drums, and electronic melodies. They always enhance one another. Great to hear a new one from you. I always use your songs to be a jumping point for ideas and inspiration. Thanks for keeping them coming. Kper

DustHill,

I've listened to a handful of your songs and I love the mixing of the synth sounds, strings, and piano, etc. So many times, in the Hip Hop genre, if you take away the vocals, the music is boring and repetitive. But you start with the music and so there is so much more personality and emotion to your music. I like that you are not afraid to mix genres but at the same time don't just do it for shock value. Instead, it seems to me that you use it to create a memorable melody that people can connect with. I enjoyed every song and will be back to visit as new songs come out. Awesome- I am not usually a Hip Hop fan but this grabs my attention and admiration. Kper

I love the picture created at the beginning. Just as I was starting to settle in, the techno kicked in and that was awesome. I like how the middle section morphs into back into the techno beat. I enjoyed the creativity. Kper

This is much more tasty than a vegan cupcake. It just made me wait with expectation for where the poem was going to go next. It is seriousness hidden behind humor and I love it. The way words and ideas are put together is linguistically delicious. Thanks for sharing. Kper

Definintely look at expanding this song. It has a lot of interest. Because everything is in the upper register, it is just waiting for some lower tones and sounds to build to some kind of crescendo. I really liked the variety of sounds and themes and it really created visual pictures. Lots of creativity. I enjoyed the listen and hope that in the future you will consider expanding it even further. Great job.

This has a cinematic quality to it- it would be great for a movie trailer. I enjoy the combination of electronic and metal sounds. There is plenty of variety and it never gets boring. Nothing is overused. Great job. Kper

Enjoyed the song- loved the chord progression and the interesting combinations of sounds in the backround. The music compliments the lyrics. I enjoyed the lyrics- a good summary of America. It is a modern version of a 60s protest song. It all really grabbed me. Great job. Kper

For your first recording, this is an awesome start. I can see you really explored a lot of different sounds: drums, guitar, vocals, electronic sounds. This song has a lot of momentum and energy. You didn't let the loops become repetitious but did some cutting and clipping and mixing to create variety. Great start- keep them coming! Kper

Very smooth. You can relax to this and the lyrics create some great mental images. The back and forth vocals makes it really interesting and creates variety. The background music really supports what is going on with the vocals. The vocals don't detract from the music and the music doesn't take away from the vocals. Great balance- it is harder to do than it seems. I enjoyed the listen- puts me in a good frame of mind. Refreshing. Kper

You captured the spirit of the words in the sounds- a gritty guitar sound along with a more sentimental guitar and string sound. It really fits with what you are trying to get across. Great use of different genres to get the point across musically. Great job! Kper

Fascinating! This really kept me on my toes- just wondering what is coming around the next corner. Love the combination of sounds- a lot of great sounds without sounding fluffy. Lots of intensity. Very progressive. Good use of breaks in percussion, guitar, etc, as a way to build up intensity. Awesome. Kper

Just got around to listening to this track. This had me headbanging- it takes a lot to get that happening. Electro-metal is a cool genre I am only finding here at looperman and this stuff gets me excited about how creative people can be. I love this and you did so much with limited metal loops. Definitely check out Sony's Ultimate Metal Construction. It is the subtleties like using an acoustic guitar to create a percussion sound and the way sounds cut in and out that make this so interesting. Each sound arrives at just the right time and the breaks add definition. Awesome- inspiring. I would love to see more like this. Kper
