Nice track. It's fairly remeniscent of santana in the choice of scale used, the guitar sound you've chosen and possibly some of the licks used. I think what differentiates all guitarists, ( and this is a good thing, because it makes us all unique )is the multitude of expressive elements that come into play with a stringed instrument. String bending, legato, vibrato, grace notes, phrasing etc. Love the guitar tone and the conga's are recorded superbly.
Hey thanks for listening, I appreciate it. You obviously have some good taste, as your avatar is from what I believe to be one of the greatest albums of all time. Nice! Thanks, Six
The difference is subtle, but I think it's better with the extra treatments. I think the volume on the bass could come up a little, it's a little buried in the mix and its such a great hook of a bass line. This track just gets better with listening - sure sign of a great track.
I'm glad that you like the changes that I've made. Thanks for the suggestion about the bass, maybe I need to balance things out a bit. Thanks for your help!
Some nice chords here - could be the basis for something good. Maybe you could try Holly or Gizella for some vocal loops or a collaboration. The casio doesnt sound too bad either.
Great to hear an old recording of this sort, a real time-in- place piece. Lovely old warmth that analogue tape imparts replete with the not so desirable hiss. I really like the chord changes in this one, very Beatlesque - great stuff.
You seem to be attracting a lot of "Unknown user" listeners. Do you suppose they might be "shy"? Anyway, I liked this piece, a lovely little sounds of childhood montage. I loved the ice cream van and the frog croaking. Nice bit of piano ( boogie-woogie) and harmonica to finish. Good work.
Everytime I think that "When Hippos sing with Frogs" is my most intense track, I remember this one. Definitely another one of my music "essence" pieces, my greatest worry was it going too far. Glad it worked for you. Cheers!
Great work. It's my opinion that there is not enough of this ( culturally diverse ) type of work on looperman - it enhances and hopefully expands our understanding of other musical forms and dialects.
Super track. I love the clarity of the mix great crisp drums and bass line. I love the way your wife recites and is answered by the synth line - downloading & faving.
Thank you very much for your comments! I was unsure about the mix, but it seems to be getting a good response, so that makes me happy. It was really cool hearing my wife's words fit right into this track. Thank you very much for the fave!
This is a great mix. Great use of various loops, they really work well and compliment each other. I love the rhodes sound and slightly distorted guitar. The real surprise is the use of an african guitar riff, this is very unusual and causes a genre collision that nevertheless works really well and adds an unexpected twist - great stuff.
Whats with all these unknown users checking out your track? - you appear to be attracting a shy type of listener. I realy enjoyed this lovely number. The acoustic guitar work is excellent and nicely balanced with the piano. If I have one minor criticism it is the slightly discordant part ( you will know the part I mean ) I think fixing that would make it perfect - great work, downloading & faving.
thanks for taking the time to listen and review. i appreciate your words and suggestions, though i have to say i must be losing what i had left of musical ear...i can't find that discordant part you mentioned...can you help me out so i can fix it? thank you!
Nice mix of instrumentation - love the Rhodes arpeggio and the chime tree sound - nice dark middle eight adds a little tension and interest - good work.
thanks for checking me out and the kind words jfw, orchestration, arrangement, production in that order for me always, it's the sound first, without that ya got nothing...just came by your way and will try to get back real soon!

Thanks for the review, jfw. I'm with you on the operatic voice loops. Do you have any ideas of where I can get my hands on some good classical voice loops? I have been looking but have not had much luck. Thanks again. Kper
I used exactly the same long organ loop that you started this with on my track "Logarythms". It's strange to see the very different results different people achieve with the same building blocks. - Good stuff.
WOW !!!
I listened to your track and the styles are indeed poles apart - it's great to be able to take a sample/sound and construct such different tracks - cheers mate
