gee-ee-eez... is that you on the piano & organ? You have talent for sure. nice avatar. Is that your sister or mom? Ok... now seriously. The call and response between the organ and piano is done tastefully and musically. Are you leaving this as-is or will you add to it?
yeah, the piano & organ pieces are done by my girlfriend and myself then quantized, EQ'd etc. more will be added to it defo, just checking what people think first =]
The panning of the guitars... bit of a lost art form. This track moves thru a few different grooves. The boppy middle & ending section reminded me of the band 311 except you play guitar better than they do. LOL!
Thanks for reviewing this tune and the great comments you left. I apparently didn't get an e-mail notice about your review or else I would have replied long ago. Sorry about being so late. I'll review one of your tunes as well in kind.
There are a lot of tricks a person can use. It is a matter of just experimenting.
I am in the process of doing a 'Crunch' type tune now and that has the guitars panning and a phasing sound as well.
guitar parts are PERFECT! Great tones, but more importantly great feel. I suggest you get a bigger sounding kick drum for the wah-slide section. very Jeff Beck-ish sound. NOT easy to pull off. YOU are great!
Hello D2d, Seems like I just left you a couple reviews. ha!
Anyways, I appreciate your comments about the funk mix. I can usually get any guitar sound I want thru the help of software VST's.
I can agree with you on the kick drum not standing out more. Sometimes you really just need to stand back and listen to the song the next day, and pretend it is the first time you've heard it, and make adjustments.
Thanks a lot for your comments, they are always very helpful. Later, Randy
Well thank you very much! I'll have to include some circuit bent stuff in our colab. Thanks for the listen!

This what I like... The tone of the bass line. I like the programmed track. I like the production. Why does the track stop abruptly around 2 min? But yet the track goes for 4 min?
fun transitions. good production. The bass line kinda wore on me after awhile. It is good and catchy. It struck me as a bit too much of a good thing maybe. Over all, I wish I could produce more like this.
While I like the bass line, I do agree that I probably could switch it up a bit. If I ever get back to revising that track (the loops are long lost), I'll keep that in mind. Thanks for the review!
Holley sounds great as usual. you put together a nice mellow track here. If you want, I don't mind recording that guitar main line for you with an acoustic. Just send me part of the loop & the tempo. It would take me just a few minutes. It's nice to hear someone featuring a guitar in their music. Me and the guitar thank you! LOL!
This reminds me of an African Reggae I recorded a while back. It had a bit more edge to it than the jamacian reggae. You did a good job with the Talking drum on this track. The vocal has that folk rock 70's soul to it with a hint of reggae. You capture the best of everything with your vocal style. I can't wait to hear more of your stuff.
The beat/groove's my favorite part of this. The organ reminds me of a deranged circus or something. I like the grooves you come up with.. Dre'-ish shh//stuff.

Sounds like you drank too much coffee before you started programming the track. Just playin'. It's awesome. I mean it's freakin awesome.

I didn't hear the original track yet... but drum programming is really jumping on this one.

You surprised me. Good use of the loop. Great programing work!

The hard panning kinda threw me off a bit. Track seems a bit sparse.

I love the rap... You may want to repeat the yeahs at the beginning through the track. To me those ad libs are THEE hook. good job!

You did the beats? That's my fav part of this track. The kik is thick. Good kik pattern too!

The piano lines hit me as being better than most of the piano parts I've heard on LM.

This is a slamming track. Excellect mastering or mix work. More LM tracks should take notes on the tone of this track.
Commented on Acid Jack - Full Throttle Mix by Scootaboy
Good job with the filters. I like the compressed Kik since it really pulls the focus of the track to the kik pattern.

You did a great job incorporating that vocal. The low-fi vocal feel is cool.
