on Ferlin ft Jens Comen by Kikajon

Cool man, loved the gun slinger lead at the end, very western sounding! Sounds like this one has passed the test of time. I like the story about talking to the statue. Reggae, I love it!

Wayne

Kikajon replied Unknown

Thanks Wayne, I'm glad you liked it.
The song has been with me for a while (close to 30 years, haha) but it was just a few weeks back I got the melody for the chorus and I had to record it. Thanks for the review and the fav, appreciate it.

on night sunshine by SYNTHIZIZ

Hey Mike, been a long time since I've been by. Hope things are going well for you!

This is certainly different for me as I don't listen to hardcore much but I'm open to all kinds of music. Pretty intense! Excellent production, sounds great in my headphones, very cool track.

Take care of yourself!

on The Merciless by RayKoefoed

Man, I just love your approach to vocals, very unique sound and cool lyrics. I liked the synth that opens, finishes and is played thru the song, it cuts thru and sounds great at the level you have it in the mix. As always, something interesting!

Wayne

RayKoefoed replied Unknown

Thank you very much Wayne. I always appreciate your reviews.

on Awakenings by rfalkenburg

This was nice. Relaxing at times, energizing at times but overall very uplifting track. I don't listen to trance much but this track makes me rethink that! Cool synths and an even mix, well done!

on Sloppy Intro by Luckyfeatherstudios

The intro cracked me up!! Hey, keep doing what you're doing. The more you put tracks together and play with the effects and features in your daw, the better you will get at it. None of your friends seem too shy so I feel you'll be uploading more stuff soon!

Wayne

Luckyfeatherstudios replied Unknown

on rest in peace by Luckyfeatherstudios

I can feel the emotion in the lyrics and can feel that you put a lot into this. You have a decent voice to do vocals. It needs some work but all my tracks do too. So work on it some more and keep learning as you go. It's a long process so don't get discouraged, keep it fun. Don't be afraid to move on to the next idea for a while and give a project a rest, then come back at it later, fresh new mind on it with a new perspective.

Way to go man!

Wayne

Luckyfeatherstudios replied Unknown

haha yea each time i hear it find something i think i need to fix. my biggest area. is learning how to rap to a beat. like when to rap and when not to.. then i need to learn how people base there raps. but thanks you. i have quite a long haul in fron of me if want to be as good as your or alot of members on this site, but i pray i will start to get more intune with beats and how to sync my voice with em, but yea man thanks again for the kindess and not lighting me on fire and throwing gasoline on meh haha..

on New love by PapaChubbs

This is great, you guys have a good thing going here, it has the harmonies of the Eagles and the guitars remind me a bit of Croce.
I like the tempo change. Nice live recording and performance.

Need a mando player? ha

on New Love feat Papa Chubbs by Paulkeus

I'm listening to your version and Papa Chubbs version and you did a nice job with it. You have some great production skills!! Off to review their's now.

on A good bassplayer is hard to find feat Badhuman by Paulkeus

Very nicely put together. Cool chops and nice tone on the guitar. Badhuman smokes on the bass! Very cool funk track Paulkeus and a great mix too! Great collab.

on Walkin In The Dark by SpyderX

This reminds me of something Alice Cooper would have done back in the day. The subject matter, the sound just put me in that frame of mind of early rock/metal. The bass sounded great and I liked the vocals. Nice track, catchy, cool, creepy.

Wayne

SpyderX replied Unknown

You know, Wayne, I never really made the Cooper connection with this song till you mentioned it. You just might be right ~ I used to be a roadie for Cooper back in the 70's, and he's still one of my favorite artists. I think I need to redo some of the vox though. I just got a better mic and some new mastering progs, so some of my older stuff is probably going to get a "going over" sooner or later.

Thanks for the listen and review, bro. I really do appreciate it when talented guys like yourself take the time to check out my work.

Peace,

Mike

on A New Beginning by bmw2000uk

The guitars were perfect for this track as well as the nature sound effects. There were some some nice breaks and changes that kept the song moving right along and made me want to listen to the very end!! Although dance isn't my most faved genre, tracks like this really make me open my eyes to all the talent on this site, great job bmw!!

Wayne

bmw2000uk replied Unknown

Thanks for this review, i do try hard to make my music stand out, i don't like to sound like others, i like to always be one step different, very glad you liked it enough to listen to the end, thats how i like my music to be heard.

Peace...

on Rock Asia by bmw2000uk

Ya man, you really captured the feeling of East meets West. The guitar with the sitar is a cool combination. I really liked the intro and the Asian stringed instruments you used throughout the song. Interesting blend of instruments here but it seems to work great!

Wayne

bmw2000uk replied Unknown

Thanks for your review, much appreciated, yes i try make good tunes, and i think any instrument blend sounds good if you put your mind to it. Glad you like the guitar and sitar.

Peace...

on Shes Like a River by PapaChubbs

Sweet track, just beautiful! I love this type of music, I listen to a local folk radio station all day at work(if it comes in)and this would sound great on that station next to the likes of Dylan and Gordon Lightfoot. You guys are a great combo, I'll have to check out some more of your tracks!

Wayne

Thanks for checking it out again Wayne!

on Steal Away by Emann

I like the song idea, some really cool things going on here. I like the lead! Personally, I like to hear the vocals a little more centered in the mix, like how you centered the lead around 1 min. Just my opinion.

Overall I thought it was a cool track. Keep working on the mix, I think you could tweek it a bit more.

Wayne

Reply: Well I was thinking balanced centering. Not sure, but did you double the vocal track and seperate it or is it a stereo widening effect, a delay? I'll usually just widen the stereo field a bit and add a bit of reverb to my vocals , that's it.

Emann replied Unknown

Hi the Humps, thanks for the tips. I've listening what everyone has said and have edited the song each time. I understand when you say you'd like the voice more 'centered' you are talking about 'balance centering' (or pcenter of the song? laced in a different place) in . Thanks for taking the time to listen and to comment. emann

Replay: thanks for clarifying that for me. You're right, i sterio micked that voice (double tracked) and somewhere had read to balance the to 100% L &R. I'll edit the song again and give what you said a try. Thanks again, emann (this kind of comment is very useful)

on Time For Change - SpellJammer Collab by AllenV

Like a breath of fresh air, amazing! Pretty song, nice melodies throughout. Liked the delay on the guitar, subtle but effective. I just love playin' with delays, multitap delays are fun.

Sweet track, great collab with SpellJammer. Everything feels right about this track. dl an fav! thanks!

Take care Allen,

Wayne

AllenV replied Unknown

Thank you so very much Wayne!At the end of the day I hope to make music that feels right and is enjoyable to listen to.Collabs have allowed me to play music I love with great people like SpellJammer.

on The Dunes (Dream Ending) by ParkerMusic

I think fusion might be the right choice for what is offered. I would agree with you that world music or new age would better describe it.

It def has some nice ethnic sounds and percussion and the guitar added a nice touch to the first part of the song with more of a straight up beat. I like the title too. Overall, I liked it, sweet track, would have dl'd it if offered so I'll just fav it. Nice job putting this together ParkerMusic!

Wayne

ParkerMusic replied Unknown

Thank you Wayne for the review. Send me your email and I will be happy to forward a copy to you.

on Aaj Mile Ho Kal Phir Milna by Nayeemp

Cool track Nayeemp. Some sweet sounds in this and great production. Loved everything about this!

Blues? ok I'm not sure what they are singing about, maybe they are singing the blues. ;)

dl and fav! thanks

on LOST by MADVICKO

When the drums kicked in and the song picked up it took me by surprise, wasn't expecting that. A good surprise! I liked the bass sound you used and the lead was rockin'. Cool track MADVICKO!

Wayne

MADVICKO replied Unknown

Thank you!When I worked on the first part of the song I started to feel emotion of the chorus,how is it to be a completely lost in reality so I figured it be good to speed up the thing and to add some strong feel to song...Thank you again,looperman is a great place and it motivates me to make some more music...
(sorry for my bad english...i dont have much chance to practice in my country...)

on Swing n Bass by EzIcarus

"You ain't got a thing if you ain't got that swing"

Nice track! Louis Prima is one of my favorite artists of all time so I love all kinds of swing beats. It really does have an old time feel to it, nice recording!

Wayne

EzIcarus replied Unknown

Im not surprised, He's truly amazing. Thank you.

on La Casa de Te de la Luna de Agosto by Vicen

I liked Michael Stokes desciption as hyper pop! Very catchy beat and the horns were great. One of your best I've heard so far!

Wayne

Vicen replied Unknown

Yes, this is the song that most people like. It's catchy and with a light and fast pace. I'm glad you too liked it.

theHumps 5th Oct 2010 15:37 - 15 years ago

on EVERY DAY ADVENTURES by Silvestre

Powerful track, loved the harp and vocal pads. The cello and strings were nicely placed in this. I might suggest a little eq on the overall mix, it sounds a little hot on the mids and highs, maybe redo the mastering if you mastered it. Overall very cool track!!

Wayne

Silvestre replied Unknown

ok wayne i will try your suggestions and thank you take your time reviewing this

on TAKOOL - The Greatest (Gospel instrumental) by TAKOOL

Cool track, like it!

on All of the stars (they shine) by DjBA5

Did you use a reverse clap sound at the beginning? That was a cool effect or sound you used on that. Nice to hear vocals on this that you did yourself, they are fitting for the track.

I'm on Spiv's thinking, the vocals could be a bit louder and maybe mixed in a little better with some interesting effects. Sounds as if you are still working it out so I'm looking forward to hearing it after you work it out a bit.

Nice track, nice mix, upbeat but still has a chilled out, relaxed feel to it. cool.

Wayne

DjBA5 replied Unknown

i did i used a reverse clap at the start and tweeked it loads to get a different sound ! nice spot !! thank you for the kind words on my vocals but it was just a rough idea , i want a female to sing this instead, i am still working on the track, i always post my on the fly ideas which is why i never mixed or mastered it even but i like other guys to do that instead to get a sure quality, thank you for the kind words an stoping by my friend :)
