This is a great song right from the start (and a new favorite of mine) - some great ambient sounds, reverse effects and so on. Excellent arrangement, great lyrics - very well recorded and performed - I love the voice. All in all, this is great stuff!! -super collaboration guys.
Thank you, I'm glad you like it. It was so much fun recording it, we did the final vocals in a hotel room in Åre – just after a freestyle moguls event. It was around 11:30 pm when I realised that the people in the room next door probably were trying to sleep. Anyway, thank you for stopping by an giving such a kind review.

Thanks Jamie. I have been trying to convince every band I have been in for the past 20 years to do this song only to be ignored. Decided to just dive in and have at it myself. Thanks for the encouragement.
Thx. Jamie, yeah, I'm starting to wonder if I'm going to get in trouble for posting these tracks. I thought the tracks section was for songs of any kind but it looks like it's mostly electronic stuff. Thx. for the review :). I'm going to listen to some of your stuff later.
In agreeance with SpivKurl Nice upbeat groove! The start of the song caught me unawares - the ambient backdrop starts very quietly (hence I turned the volume up on my system). The resultant serge of sound as the song proper gets going, nearly blew me out of my seat! Let no one say you boys don't know how to get the listeners attention. Top job fellas.
Oh, Michael is unique to catch our attention, the beginning of the song we owe it to him. A great contrast to start strongly. I have the luck that Michael understands me and a collaboration with him is like a stroll. I'm glad you liked it. Thanks for your feedback.
Reading through some of the reviews this track has garnered, I am taken by John Boutilier's notion of a "Sonic Safari". The idea of a hunt for new sounds and textures has a resonance with the search all of us on the Loop are engaged in! This track demonstrates that pursuit. May the quest continue...
Touche. For me the site's been really good in both identifying who my audience is and being validated in pursuing new sounds and context. Maybe the Grail for us is a yet undiscovered sample or loop! Cheers!
Absolutely beautiful, lovely track - A new favorite and the best thing I've heard on the Loop in ages - superb!! By the way, If you are up for collaborating on something - let me know.
This is quite a chiller - for some reason when I think of Hip- Hop I think of Rap so I was expecting sopmething entirely different! Nice enjoyable laid back groove to go with my morning coffeee.
The horn stabs are super tight and some great tones you both have going on in the solo's. My only comment like others have already said might be about nudging the bass up a touch.
Nice one, Jamie - you've taught the wordsmith a new word. The paradiddles you're hearing are actually my translating the hand-drum approach to snares - body memory driven bass and rim slaps. Funny with the real musicians I've performed with, it's a word that has never come up. Really glad you enjoyed listening to this one. Cheers!
Thank you for the kind review. I consider myself to be more of a songwriter than a guitarist or singer so the comment about my voice is both surprising and much appreciated. Thanks again.

The mood and live ambience of this is beautifully captured! Lovely to hear something like this on the loop! 100% live and not an overdub in sight - Great!!!
I do not know who is MAN. But I'd like to hear. I'm glad you liked it. For me it was a song that I enjoyed working. Is one of those songs that every little change I make is a pleasant surprise.
