on Right Now by ValveDriver

In a couple months he will be gone and then he will go to jail for money laundering along with many other crimes he's committed. I feel so bad for these communities being assaulted and people being kidnapped by unmarked "police". It's Nixon all over again, the "law and order" prez, yeah right.

I think your track captures the tense feelings of anger and frustration that people are experiencing across the country. The clips certainly add chaos and mayhem to the picture. Nice job putting this together, mix is tight and sounds right!

Wayne

ValveDriver replied 27th Jul 2020 - 5 years ago

Wayne, thank you.

This track was definitely meant to capture the tension, anger and drive of the people. .Even though the protests are consolidated in one small area of Portland, you can definitely feel the tension all over the city. Personally, I agree with their cause, and if I didn't have kids to think about, I'd be right down there with them.

Thank you for taking the time to listen and comment. I always appreciate it.

Take care.

Whiskey Bar by the Doors!

All you need is Jim Morrison and your mission is complete. He's dead, so I guess you are on your own with the vox. he.

Haha yeah, I am out of luck here i think.

on Ah - Ronabo2020 by ronabo

Absolutely nothing wrong with this, great vibe, great execution musically and with the mix. Everything sounds great, clear and purposeful. Put me in a relaxed, chilled out mood, thanks!

Wayne

ronabo replied 26th Jul 2020 - 5 years ago

Thank you much Wayne. I appreciate your comments my friend and the fav too. I really had fun creating this track. The world can use some chill and relax. 2020 has been rough for so many.

on Control by Neomorpheus

First off, I like the mix, solid, open. Cool collab, got no complaints or criticisms, thought the lead could have been a bit louder around 2:10 but so minor a suggestion. Dig it man!

Wayne

Neomorpheus replied 20th Jul 2020 - 5 years ago

Hey Wayne, your wish is my command bro. I checked it out and sure enough that lead was on a lower volume than the others(?) so I leveled it up and yeah you were right, sounds better. So, as always thanks for the feedback, especially when it involves improving the track.

on MORE Just For Funsies by toddlove

A pretty carefree, a "no cares in the world" feel to it. Keep doing your thing, seems to be working!

Wayne

I'll take that! :) Thanks for your time and comments.

on Just For Funsies by toddlove

Ok, so it was fun!

Just throwing things together is how I make music, mostly. Sometimes you surprise yourself and produce something different that you may underestimate as sucking or maybe no one will like. Sometimes that isn't the case.

Cool! Keep having fun, that's what this is all about.

Wayne

toddlove replied 17th Jul 2020 - 5 years ago

Hey Wayne. Thanks for your time with listening and commenting! I agree, sometimes it's best not to start a new track with any intentions, just start playing and putting sounds together. Sometimes it does suck but sometimes you make something cool that didn't exist in the world. :)

on better ft patricia edwards prod by lochovski by lochovski

The piano sounds great. If that's you playing it then I tip my hat. If not then it's well mixed with Patricia's vocals, she is great isn't she? Nice job with the overall mix too!

Wayne

lochovski replied 13th Jul 2020 - 5 years ago

hello wayne thank you for your comment much appeciated
and sorry not me on piano just years of learning this jigsaw puzzle called logic pro x , and yes patricia does have a great voice
thank you again

on ONE OF A KIND by terryjmhitsong

Very cool! Has the authentic sound of 60's and 70's country music. The slide git was a big plus. The piano was cool, those little pieces of jewelry shine when there not being played all the time, those little things matter in a mix to me.

The singing hit the mark and the backups were placed in the mix just right. Impressed with the whole feel of the track, warm and mixed just the way it should be for this track.

Excellent job to all those who put this together!

Wayne

on Babils by JJIreland

Cool, chilled out vibe, atmospheric and not crushed by a limiter or too much compression. That helps set the mood as far as production goes. Too short, need more, lol!

Wayne

JJIreland replied 11th Jul 2020 - 5 years ago

Hey, man. I really appreciate the feedback! As soon as it comes to me, I'll add on. Right now I'm just sort of stuck. :(

on AMERICANA by terryjmhitsong

Cool man! Your brother is a good player and it's a decent sounding song. Reminds me a bit of the Gin Blossoms or even the Del Fuegos a bit. Like Eric said, I wished it was longer, it's a good idea that needs a vocal track.....and some cowbell, lol!

Wayne

terryjmhitsong replied 7th Jul 2020 - 5 years ago

YES COWBELL GOOD ONE....VC GO FOR IT....THANKS MAN

on Nightmare by Illway

I like the singing. The music was choppy but cool and interesting, the horn stabs added a lot too. Not my usual listening material but it appealed to me in a creative way.

Well done man!

Wayne

Illway replied 7th Jul 2020 - 5 years ago

Thx bro! Really appreciate it.

on Dont Cry Redone by MichaelMayo

Nice song, good dynamics and a decent mix. nice job!

9 songs on an EP? Don't you mean LP, Long Playing. EP means Extended Play, as in more than one single on either side of a 45 rpm record. EP's usually only have 3 or 4 songs on them or one side is a longer extended mix of a song. I would call a 9 song collection an LP album.

on atilla der pfingstochse by psypreacher

It's like I'm listening to an old German play/rendition of a Charles Dicken's classic. Some parts sound like my stomach rumbling. They bouncy synth and choral aahhs in the middle was unexpected. Well most of it was. :) It was fun to listen to, liked the ending!

Cool track, well mixed and who doesn't like the vibe?

on Rise of a Villain by Centrist

Ok, the intro was cool. French? I guess I can hear that in there. The intro was just something to lull me into a false sense of security. Then bam, it happens and it doesn't stop coming, he. There's some crazy shit happening left and right in my ears at the end that builds and was powerful. Liked it man!

Wayne

Centrist replied 29th Jun 2020 - 5 years ago

Yeah, I'm not sure about the beginning as far as the setting, it was just supposed to be kind of a calm..unsettling thing. Thanks so much, glad you liked it!

on jj-key by TomElliston

You don't hear a lot of this on looperman, it's certainly welcomed! Let 'er rip!

Wayne

TomElliston replied 31st Jul 2021 - 4 years ago

well i just wish you all could hear the tracks the way i recorded them originally, the MP3 format sucks. i like .wav or .ogg. take a spectrum analyzer some time and sample a track recorded in .wav look at it then the same passage in mp3.......need i say more?

on PACK UP N GO by terryjmhitsong

Cool track! Big band at times, Setzer-ish! I like the horn fills, layered nicely.

on When I am With You Feat JaniMilfsson by toddlove

Interesting song. I liked the stringed instrument you chose at the beginning and thru the song. The flute like instrument was a good choice. Her vocals seem a bit dissonant in context with your music. I did read what you said to centrist about his comment regarding this. Cool idea but it does have an interesting thang going on.

Wayne

toddlove replied 28th Jun 2020 - 5 years ago

Thank you for your time and feedback Wayne, I appreciate it. So, I tried to look into this a little more. Jani did not give a key with her acapella, so I used Keyfinder which gave me the key of F#. The instruments I wanted to use were in the key of A#minor. So I transposed them to be F# as well to match her key. Is it possible the difference between major and minor are what is causing that disconnect? I don't know enough about music theory obviously. :) And if that was the case, how would I go about fixing it? Or do I just leave this track be and move on, haha. Thanks again!

I was jamming around to it with my acoustic git, Eb minor, moody key. I like it!

on Round Goodaz - Ronabo2020 by ronabo

Yes, this puts me in a bigger summer mood than I am already in, gettin hot here in Florida but I am avoiding all the usual tourist spots and preferring to stay safe at home. I can listen to this and it puts me on the beach, as I relax in my floating pool chair enjoying the sun! Summer!

Hey Wayne, thanks for listening my friend. I like "relax in my floating pool chair enjoing the sun!" :)

on Promises feat Patricia Edwards by Micky

I was impressed when the vocals came in, the sounded great. When the music started I instantly noticed the quality mix and cool song you put together. What's not to like about this? Radio friendly, pop song, always a winner in my ears!

Well done to both you and Patricia!

on DJ Arloph-Rite by JCJMusic

I liked it from the start, full of energy and picked me up and made me smile. Cool changes, dig the percussion, the vocal stabs were enough. Captures the fast paced world we live in, technology based yet a bit of the ole organic still shines. Cool track!

Wayne

theHumps 17th Jun 2020 19:51 - 5 years ago

on X Mi Ft Ashesndreams by toddlove

I did notice the waveform had changed and so did the mix, it really opened up, don't you think? The bass has it's place, the gits on the left and right don't interfere with the vox anymore.....I could go on and on.

That's what I hear but what do you think?

Compression on individual tracks or if you group them/send to aux buss will affect how it sounds when adjusting the master compression as well. Finding that balance is what makes this so hard. I think you are doing great!

Wayne

toddlove replied 17th Jun 2020 - 5 years ago

Thanks for having another listen, you're awesome! *Looperman Gold Star for you today* :) Yes, I can now hear the difference, and it highlights the fact that I need to train my ears a lot more! I can now hear things sitting in different places more instead of everything just being the same loudness so to speak. This was a humbling yet much needed lesson for me to learn and I know I will continue to struggle with. Sometimes I feel like throwing my hands up and calling it quits, but for now I will keep at it. Thank you again for your help and encouragement!
