on DownwardSpiral by FreeRadical
Hey man, how ya been? Glad your back putting up some tunes. Really dig this. I like how the song seems to attack, the synths are very aggressive(to steal another reviewer's word) and they give that great feeling of intensity, like a feeling of being chased in a movie. Welcome back!

Haha sounds nice! I wanted that feeling. Everything else I make sounds dirty and rough, but this is the first "happy" song I've made. Thanks for the feedback!

on Death To The Dark One ft Metaled by MinkSoda
Those vocals are great, I can't see how people can do it but you can pull it off. Thought the hi hats were a bit loud in the mix. For a first metal post I think you did a great job, congrats!

on Lust from XmafaX by XmafaX
Absolutely loved the intro and then everything else that followed!

Great energy and really loved all the instruments you used. A bit loud, maybe cut back a bit on the compression or ceiling on the limiter if you used one, just my humble opinion.

Pretty interesting track, the effects on the vocals were fun. Like the tabla drums. Kinda trippy, I might take Spivkurl's advice instead of the incense. Well done, keep it interesting!

on La novia de Cienfuegos by ScottFranco
I love percussion and once the track started, I knew I would dig it. I am a huge fan of Latin music and this one is wonderful. All of the vocals work so well together. Live sax? Wow, pretty cool you could do that.

I really like the track, upbeat and very catchy. It's not crowded but there is quite a bit going on, lots of nice space in here. Think I'm gonna dl this one so thanks for sharing Scott!

ScottFranco replied 11th Dec 2013 - 12 years ago
Thanks allot, Wayne. So glad you like it enough to download it.

Yeah, both Franco and I love sax and Reiko has worked with us on several of our tracks. We are truly and international group! It's nice to go to a musician when we need a particular instrument for a track. I think we should do more of this here.

Ciao,
Franco & Scott

on So deep within you by janis71
Love the keys, they really set a mood right from the beginning. Wonderful lead vocals and great backups. It has that 70's rnb, jazzy feel, just perfect. Great job, it's always a pleasure to listen to your creations!

Loved the energy right from the beginning. I must admit that I don't listen to much of this kind of music. But when it strikes a chord with me than I can really appreciate it more and more. Great dynamics in the song and the mix is great!

Nice Job!

on Home - by maddface
It's nice to hear some more acoustic music here, like the track. Interesting way to record but with today's technology allowing us to do this, I say "way to go man!" Honestly, I would like to hear this recorded properly, bet it would be pretty awesome!

Cheers!

on Things That Have Never Been by StaticNomad
I started to listen to this yesterday and got a phone call and had to return to give it a full listen. First off I am not a fan of long songs, give me a 2:30 song and I'm happy. I do however give tracks a listen if the description is interesting.

I really liked the banjo, not often heard here at the loop, it really added a cool acoustic feel. Quite a bit going on and there were some interesting changes and mood swings.

I used to love how the Doors would just jam and improvise on a groove kinda like jazz musicians do when they jam. They often go off in different directions but stay somewhat grounded to the original idea. I feel you are doing something similar here.

I did listen to the whole track here and it was interesting but just too long for my taste, that is nothing against your wonderful production, it was very well put together!

Wayne

StaticNomad replied 5th Dec 2013 - 12 years ago
Well thanks for checking it out. I got the banjo a couple of years ago and have recorded a lot with it since then and it features prominently in quite a few tracks I've uploaded to the site.

They include: An Early Morning Appointment With God, Right Place Wrong Century and Into The Out There.

Yes, I'm not sure I've heard a single track on this site containing banjo. I also don't understand why it's not used more in electronic music (ie outside country and bluegrass and related genres) as it can be very cool. Mine's 6 string so just another guitar to me.

I do a lot of jamming on various grooves and wandering off but staying grounded to a sound, a key, that sort of thing. This track has quite a consistency to the different sections - I have others which change a lot more.

I fully appreciate that a lot of people can't cope with stuff that's over 8 minutes - and certainly not an 18 min track like this.

I am trying hard to do shorter stuff, with some success, but some things just all fit together so well that it feels wrong to cut them down. I guess I make music for a very niche and probably dwindling audience - people who want to put on a whole album and sit back and chill to it rather than just sample a quick little song.

Doesn't matter so much if tracks are over 10 minutes if you're listening for, say, an hour.

Thanks for your honest thoughts.

on Akshat S - Pain by Akshat
Just to let you know I don't listen to a lot of dubstep so my comments are not going to be too technical. First off I liked the intro. You described it as chilled and I totally agree, this is a cool and more laid back version of dubstep that I am not familiar with. I liked the strings in the latter part of the song. Nice job with this one!

Hey Mr. 12STRING, this is funky, a bit of dance thrown in there, and pretty cool and fun. Patricia is amazing. Between her amazing vocals and the very upbeat groove you created I think you have a hit on your hands!!
