Those kicks were too cool! I liked the description, made me want to hear this one. This is thick and heavy and you did a great job on it, pretty intense! Good luck to your friend.
Gibson Flying V and an Orange amp, a kick a$$ sound for sure! The track sounds great, evenly mixed. Not bad for just making up the lyrics! Cool track PMK!
Thank you, Wayne! Long time no hear and your review makes me really happy, and the fav too! And yeah, that guitar has so much phat, chunky rock in it and that amp just blows me away.
Again, thanks.

Pretty laid back chilled out beat. Liked the vocal samples at the beginning and how you brought things to slow down around the 2 min mark, cool stuff. Nice job on your first upload to the loop!
I agree with jfw in that you have matured a bit(musically speaking)since you were here last. I like the darker tone to this one and the pace of it, not rushed. That adds tension, I feel, and with the darker feel to it that adds up to a good listen, a bit cinematic too. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the review! I've always aimed for diversity, I like to surprise people every now and then, lol. But yeah, the underlying "Koukotsu-ness" will never go away!
This one should be getting updated soon, I'm far from done with it; Everything is a work in progress for me, lol.
I remember this little gem!! Hey, great to see you back and posting again. I think this could be made a bit brighter on the eq side of things but it still holds it own as far as a track idea goes. Great to hear your music again!!
This is really trippy, spaced out, relaxing type music here, haha. But dance as the genre? Might not have been my first choice but I don't put a lot of weight into genre lables in the first place. I liked the guitar playing and what you did to it. Nicely constructed track, interesting piece of mood music, great job!
hi thanks for the comment, I know its not exactly a dance track, maybe something futuristic of that sort, but i feel that it adds to the appeal of the track, Ill change it soon enough, take care,

Working in genres outside what you are used to can only make you a better musician, mixer, arranger.... It causes you to think differently and try things that you normally wouldn't, like different vsti's and arrangements. That makes us better in general, imo.
Now the track is very cool and well constructed. Of course I liked the acoustic guitar bits the most, ha, but overall I think you have a really decent track here. Nice one PBJ!
For a 4 track recording, this sounds pretty dang good! I've been wanting to head to Nepal, India and/or Tibet the past few years and listen to the wonderful music that is so trance inducing over there. Then I hear this and it makes me want to head to Washington State instead, haha! This is really something else Sean.
I've liked the older material you sent me a while back and I will be dl'ing this so thanks, it will be enjoyed, trust me. Thanks again for sharing!
Ha - I sent you the link to probably the ultimate Washington State trance inducting music, so yeah you'll probably want to plan a trip out here. I'll hook you up with some dungeness crab, too!
The Anak Pisang project was a true joy to have been a part of, and I actually just sent the boys a thank you note for what they taught me musically back then. Really glad you enjoyed this one, Wayne. Cheers - Sean
Yeah, I'm pretty happy with it, especially considering the 4 tracks thing. I'm not used to limiting myself to that amount, but I geuss it is a useful practical skill to have.
I remember those days back in the late 80's and 90's recording on 4 track cassette and 8 track reel to reel decks. Editing a track was nearly impossible but back then that's what we did to record. Emotional piece, especially after reading the description and knowing what the piece was written about. Nice one!
Jason has been one entertaining, original talent on the loop, certainly has his own way of expressing life. The track is dark and deep, ya, Barry nailed it, big Floyd sound here, waiting for Gilmore's lead.ha
Hey Wayne..yeah mate! Dola has it,whether it's his laissez-faire style or stepping off the curb flow the guy is f--king entertaining,and in this business that's golden..cheers your homie buddy Dave ;)
So this is how it's done, nice! I don't listen to much hip hop but do listen every now and then. Technically I can say that the mix is even, some cool vocals and backups as well. Sounds pretty cool to me. Thanks for sharing!
thanks for reviewing! it might take awhile for me to make a song out of all of the samples you sent me cuz finals are coming up... but i will eventually get around to them! thanks for sending them
Progressive rock huh? I think cool is fitting, ha! Once again you put together another wonderful piece. Liked the different sounds of the guitar in this one. A nice combination of instruments create a fantastic scene, from a city, which is a nice title btw. Always a pleasure!
This really does have a feel of several genres, that's good, imo. The piano has a cool offbeat feel to it, really sounds cool when everything is going on. It has a jazzy type feel to it, you know, the kind of song where musicians are just jamming live and getting into it, too cool!
Thanks Wayne.
Ah yes Hurricane. You know I have a good friend in Phoenix who has been relentlessly insisting I give that one a try for some time now. I really like Hurricane a lot and I do enjoy mimicking the way Bob goes about his phrasing and such. It's a blast. Plenty of signature vocal trademarks to mess with. I also dig applying vocal styles and elements of John Lennon, George Harrison, The Rutles of course. I borrow from Springsteen, Hendrix, Stephen Stills, Greg Lake, etc. Something about their vocal approach makes the story even more intriguing. I guess it is indeed time to finally jump in and see what I can do with Hurricane. Thanks for the nudge, the props, your time and positive spirit.

Lots of cool guitars in this track. I like the singing and the the ooo's and aaah's! haha This is very catchy and your production keeps getting better all the time. Great one my friend, your project is shining with this one added!
I love that you like the u-a. When I came, I thought of all the choirs of Dudua, I've heard ... and that's it. Thanks, this project is running, but in the next, you and I see the faces
