on Ravens by Killick
well, i’v had to wait a few days to have the right listening space for this, and so — my god, man what a show! the imagery has me seeing the ravens morphing with atomic bombers and flight on some black helicopters. the composition and orchestration are superbly affective, and that singing is like, on stage. john adams meets ultravox. very, very fine stuff, my friend.
Killick
Killick replied 18th Sep 2022 - 3 years ago
In your comments you always give the most amazing imagery. I would've never thought of birds morphing into atomic bombers but it's a h*ll of a cool thought. Thanks so much man, as always.

What's up xstokes,

I usually like my shrooms on pizza or in vegetables.

How weird is that?

I'm glad you stopped by and gave my track a listen.
I really appreciate your Fave and humorous comments.
I wonder what you'll think I'm smokin on my next track
I think weird might be an understatement for it. lol.

PEACE from the East, perhaps... Unless you live farther
east than Myrtle Beach IJS...

BB, you’ve been knocking them out of the park man! i love the trajectory this has, you have really found the heart of the poem. genuine, uplifting work!
BaoBou
BaoBou replied 1st Sep 2022 - 3 years ago
Thank you so much buddy! It helps to have a great lyric to start with for inspiration, but it's also been a journey to get the track where it is now... I think I'm on version 22 and counting :D

on Stratton Moon - ft steelyvibe by zipbass
i’m a fan of the pella so i had to check this out. ah, man the sensuous rhythms rub against the cold vox in the right way, and the instrumentation varies and blends wonderfully. much admired.

on Model by DFay
hey DFay, this is tense and different from what i’ve heard from you in a while. i dig the mix and your vox sound really confident. tell more about this ep, bro!
i don’t have one favorite rapper, but when the question comes up i say chuck d because he makes me listen up. how do you answer that?
DFay
DFay replied 26th Aug 2022 - 3 years ago
Thank you very much bro. I 'm trying to push myself more. You know most of the time when i recorded a song, i was afraid to go back and re-record it. Now if i feel it needs extra work, I go back and make the change.

The Ep will be like 5 tracks talking about my dad, importance of a dad from my experience and one track will be about love.

I don't have one favorite rapper but i can say Youssoupha, Kerry James (French rappers) because the way they use rap to make you open your eyes from different subjects.

on NuGroove Featuring BaoBou Remastered by kingmt77
hyperactive, hell, hyperbolic af attack of the 50-piece jazzfunk arkestra sun ra left a burning fragment of behind upon his return to saturn.
you’re reaching for the mythic and nailing it, man!

kingmt77 replied 26th Aug 2022 - 3 years ago
DANG! xstokes it's like that? Sun Ra? Ok, that's way, way up there! But really, there's absolutely no limit to what we can do musically. If we're willing to learn and apply those lessons, we can achieve what we could only dream about a short while ago. THX, much for the thumbs up and fave. Go ahead and have that awesome weekend, and I'll catch you on the next go round.

on Massachusetts by theHumps
hello Wayne! there’s such a depth to this song, and you really perform it with heart, man. there is no cheating going on here.
you always make the subjects of your covers feel like new finds, my friend!
theHumps
theHumps replied 27th Aug 2022 - 3 years ago
This one has more "singing" in it than the growly vocals in the rock and punk songs i've been doing lately. The backups are always fun to do in any song, this one was challenging but i never fuss much with things.

Thanks much for the words!

on Surge by pseudoble
just love that lilting trippy country feel, the reading is just as good as it gets. the air of breezy creativity and warmth and sense of place is feckin transcendental man. brilliant, utterly transporting music, ian!
is this a found piece of vox? rare stuff.
pseudoble
pseudoble replied 20th Aug 2022 - 3 years ago
Hey Michael - thanks for checking this out - I think there is some more I can use from that squeaking gate, with less manipulation, but you know how it is once you start exploring what the software can do and blending sounds - the vox I found at the https://poetryarchive.org/. I hope that given the context (ie; lounge room amateur and not for profit use) using this is not a problem but can take it down if it is
