I grew up with the music of Ian Duty. It was weird and exciting to us - we didn't get the lyrics, we certainly didn't get his appearance but boy did we get the energy. There's also this amazing docu on Stuff where they tell the story nobody wanted to perform after Dury because no band could top that energy.

Yeah, I get it, and you are getting very close to the energy of the band. And that's saying something. Very well done my friend!

Nice track, love the Chinese bells (are those 編鐘?) which give your track a very distinct flavor. Greetings from a former Hongkonger :)

Muy bien amigo, me gusta! I think you made a very good track for a rapper, looking forward to someone using it.

Short and sweet! I'd never heard of liquid funk (sounds like DnB to me?) But yeah, I like it! Good horn sound too, works really well!

Ooh, I think you went a bit overboard with the gain on the track and especially the vocals Alex, see if you can turn them down a bit? Leave some headroom.
Beautiful lyrics as always!

It's great Maj! I like how around 1:20 you go into a different, more orchestral section; I would maybe want that a bit louder to grab my attention. And then I was actually hoping that around 2:00 the 2 sections would merge :) but I also like how you went to the original theme.
Great stuff by the Vangelis of Looperman ;)

Strong rap man. I'm not a huge fan of the electronic "clicky" hihats (being a drummer :D) but actually it works here, and your vocal is key anyway. Good stuff.

Very nice amigo! Good modern tango vibe, and great use of the vocals!

That's a nice start! See if you can improve it and take it to the next level! Good luck :)

First of all, that's a really good track. I think if you take that to a producer, you can make that a hit, and I'm not kidding. Your voice is good enough, the tune is nice and poppy, you have all the elements, although it needs some finetuning.

Now, if I'm the producer (and I'm not), here's what I would do:
- make some changes to the melody/lyrics. Eg I noticed you sang do IT and rockSTARS with emphasis on the second syllable, when DO it and ROCKstars would flow better. Not that important, but it will help to create a hook

- then, more importantly, I would think with you about the structure. I think it needs more breathing room (eg don't go straight from chorus to verse) and a clearer hook/chorus. You consider basically everything a chorus, but that's hard to remember. I would consider to make "until I'm 27" your prechorus and the bit after that your chorus. Obviously the instrumentation also needs to reflect that; so the bit before "27" should be a bit calmer etc.

Anyway. I want to stress again I think you have something there; make 5 or 10 of these,take them to a pro and see what happens!!

Great Depeche Mode/Soft Cell kind of vibe to this, which I love! Fantastic vocals too, also Looperman or something else?

This is my favorite of your tracks! The intro is very musical, and the beat is strong.
I was going to make the same remark as Ian/Pseudoble that the beat is distorteling; maybe you did that on purpose (which is fine of course) but you can consider turning that and/or the master volume down a bit, so you would also have a bit more dynamics.
I like what you did though, keep creating!! Good stuff, you can be really proud.

That's awesome man. I don't know enough about Miles Davis to recognise a specific album, but I love the jazzy style and the groove.
I need to know though - is that a live sax or a vst/midi? It sounds ##### amazing! Mad props if that's you tooting that horn and also mad props if you managed to get it that way with a keyboard!

WOW!!
I am a huge fan of Danke and I know his band plays more like this - you added fantastic vocals to it and I think it's complete now. Fav'ed!

Dude!! That is really excellent! Absolutely thumping track, you don't get distracted while still including plenty variation and excitement. You could maybe leave a little bit more headroom in the mix (I think it's clipping in places) but this is really a very strong track. Well done man!

Ha, I see you uploaded our collab! That's great man - why don't you set it to featured so more people can hear it?
Oh, and add my name in the description ;)

The track is in F#m :) Still, close enough ;)
It's really fun! Nice structure with a break to the end and you made good use of the sounds - it could definitely have been some 8 or 16-bit game. Well done!

The music is awesome, and so is the vocal. I like the horns and the other parts of the instrumentation - all of that is great.
I do feel the mix/EQ could be better, especially on the drums. I can't hear your kick, and the snare and hats sound cut-off, as if you have a strict filter below 100 and above 1000 Hz (throwing out random numbers here).
I think that's a shame because it's such a good track, and if you get the drums alive, it would really be so much better!
See if you agree with me (I could be wrong - I generally am wrong about mixing), but in any case, love your funk. I found another kindred soul here I think and looking forward to more tracks!

That's ##### awesome Beerling! The drums were already a great intro and I was immediately hooked. You have a good balance between the parts with the booming drums and the bits without, to give the listener some rest. The only tiny minor thing you could look at is that your drums sound absolutely authentic while the key/synth parts sound a bit electronic; if it's midi you might find some that might fit even better.
But don't get me wrong, that would just be the final 1% and I fav'ed the track. Great job!

That's promising actually!
You seem to have completely maxed out the loudness, consider leaving a bit more headroom. But I'm definitely curious for the full track!

Fantastic stuff Mark. I was just about to ask if you needed a guitar solo and then I heard you actually found Jimi Hendrix around 3:25 :D
Awesome as always!

Dude, that's amazing. It's a fantastic combination of noise and music - you could go harder and make it techno, but you in fact stayed on the musical side.
Really special!!

That's a strong track man. I love how much variation and buildup you put into it, not everyone manages that, but it makes your track so much richer and more interesting to listen to.
One thing you could consider is that now your intro is quite long (essentially a minute). Think if you can maybe move part of that to the main section - it's certainly not a bad intro (it's actually really good) but some people have a short attention span, so it's not bad to show early on where you're going.
In any case, good to see you back, keep creating! :)
