on For A Bud I Will Never Know by McXFly
ok i listened to the NOTLD 18Aug2011 tracks as a set so the fav/comments apply to all - this is insistent uncompromising and punchy music - it's got a defiant aspect but at the same time yr the one pulling up the fallen and helping the poor drunk home - and that sensibility bleeds through these tracks - a varied palette but it does create a damn cool and unified persona. Total respect.

on Missing by mrck1z
that's a good question that needs a little more definition - i mean, is there more you're thinking of adding to this particular track? because if so heck yes i'd love to hear it.
this incarnation is a total beaut - seamless and wonderful - respect

mrck1z replied Unknown - 2027 years ago
not add really, take away a little and clean the whole thing up. cheers for the input

on ANGEL TOUCHDOWN by zero2zero
Z- hello ya old angel! this is arguably yr best yet - i think 'thrilling' would be putting it pretty modestly.
production-wise, every sound is surging and clear - oceanic.
composition-wise, your spacier sounds have never sounded better than coupled with the really surprising and effective big beats. and them beats have never been put to better service - they are classic but utterly brand new.
now that outro is a thing unto itself - a complex and penetrating blade of pure sound.
One of your true masterpieces, and that's sayin a lot - beauty and respect my friend

on seen by njwglass
ah - how to be worn and shining new - low-key and totally rocking out - music for the parts of the day when the sun is low in the sky and the moon pulls you outside the red skies - strange tidal drumming that really works - really beautiful and evocative music

on In Cold Blood by Feegs
respect mosta the above production comments - but i must add i am totally loving this singular approach to music - sometimes i think industrial gets a little to clinical for its own good - and this is hot-blooded. respect

on Beauty by Feegs

on Still alive by Kikajon
ah brother i am perpetually in awe of the way yr lyrics fly as fast and sure as yr fingers - amazing and vital rock n roll - ##### the stock markets - i invest a zillion favs
Kikajon
Kikajon replied Unknown - 2027 years ago
Thanks Michael. I guess adlibing vocals while recording is my way of "writing" lyrics. When I do it I find the words on the fly. In this tune I've got to admit I redid the chorus after the first take and built it around the second take. The vocals is a starting point so Jim can write new lyrics, that version will be published on the TransatlanticExp page later.

on Gonzo by jfw
hey, Jamie - your new mix is totally in the spirit - totally present-tense - i really like the bio-film gonzo and this will accompany it upon future viewings.
i love a lot of Hunter's writing and in particular this made me think of 'the curse of lono' - a Hawaiian odyssey that's hard to find but arguably the best post-loathing collab between thompson and steadman - worth searching for!
so you see as i am now on my fourth consecutive listen you have very effectively turned my mind toward yr subject.
triple favs, my friend!

on Face It - ft Twanna1 by AllenV
Allen + Twanna - this is such a great twinning and entwining collab - soulful blue and rocking - breaks on through and then some - guts and beauty is one helluva combo here - inspired, inspiring, and very dam fine - powerful music

Thank you Michael,and I would include you in the list of artists like Twanna that I have worked with here on the Loop that have inspired me beyond what I would have done on my own.

Thank you!

on Cheese before bedtime by HydraCuts
mutating and earthy - a very challenging yet complimentary palette of inventive dairy products - i'm left with lightly scorched pear and melted Gorgonzola - no kidding man this cooks - much respect

on The Road Home ft SpellJammer Vocals by AllenV
Allen, taking a cue from yr description - this captures a year in the life of one very big heart - what must have been a time of disruption and loss is related with such a sense of appreciation and hope that never succumbs to bitterness - man, that is powerful and honorable.
This collab is so right on - SpellJammer is incredible and your melody and subtle ornamentations are gifts.
AllenV
AllenV replied Unknown - 2027 years ago
Thank you Michael,
I'm so very pleased that you understand the meaning of this song and that it goes deeper than what I could say alone.
These lyrics were cultivated over time for SpellJammer,this wasn't done hastily.
I'm so proud of him and know that he is traveling down the road as we do and his "home"is well in sight with all the love that goes with it.

Thank you so much my friend!
