on theorem dubwize by arkeyetexture
this is algebra the way it should be taught in schools - high on math - let X = dub
arkeyetexture
arkeyetexture replied Unknown
and if X=dub let A=delay, B=cut off, C=envelope, and D=resonate. find the resulting effects of the combined calculations of the sum of the factors............. he he. thanks for the listen bro, and huge compliment on the fav. peace and bless! ark

on Pieces by LisMarie
LM - it's so good hear you and esp to hear you in control of the situation in this song! That lower register you're singing in here is perfect for the theme and backing instruments. Powerful!

on U.B. by Skyroads
really digging this - i hear a 3-part structure that makes an interesting composition - only crit is that no switches were flipped on the pno til the very second, i would say there's room to play with that aco sound; not obliterate it but play maybe underneath it
Skyroads
Skyroads replied Unknown
Thanks for the handy crit!

on Paranoid Camel by Gardar
terrific over-driven sound - i can only imagine that it's the kaos pad giving it that strange hand-held vibe - man, you know how to coax a spooked camel!
Gardar
Gardar replied Unknown
Thanks man, yeah the pad is a wonderful influence to the sound! im aiming for something different and i think this is quite the direction at least.. and nice chapel you got there, will take me some time to run through your books;)

on Bangin by remixme2010

on Cyber tears (A Robots Tale - Ch 1) by ALXSIX
I dig John's comments but I heard more of a dark android cityscape. Goes to show you what an effective brain-movie you've created here!
ALXSIX
ALXSIX replied Unknown
Yeah that's more or less what I had in mind, a story about an android. Glad it took your brain into this city!

on That fuct trumpet by Djabel

Djabel
Djabel replied Unknown
Cheers man!! i'll bump that trump and put the revised version on soon :)

on In a Lugubrious Landscape by PedroCasillas
i love this track. the drum section - placement, arrangement - is truly cinematic! man, my only crit is that the ratio of piano vs string is unfair - add second pno line!!
PedroCasillas
PedroCasillas replied Unknown
Thanks dude,

the strings are a bit intense but I consciously opted for a resonating synth string sound as opposed to normal sampled strings to give it that darker edge, and there is room for a second piano line, I didn't want to saturate it however, thought it was best to leave open.

Glad you enjoyed though. thanks

on Don t Be Like Me by Gordw
This is a strange + inviting sound - like Brian W dropped in to direct a Mescalaros jam session - warm and cool.
Gordw
Gordw replied Unknown
Thanks friend. It's kinda different. I love this site for its loops and the people. You folks are great. Thanks

on Quiet Aftertrance by CalifKen
Gotta echo Emily's adjectives - adding Phrenological. Did I hear an Omnichord?

on Spinning by lisavonh
echo all jfw's comments - great lyrics, too. the production skills on the last 70secs or so of the vox is terrific & should be exercised throughout the track to provide more spatial dimension to the instruments as well. what a foreboding song!

on How s Your Life by Gordw
Gord, no kidding we could have been doing this standing back to back. Please check out Wolf for Rachel. I'm not trying to pull yr tail, I would love to collab tho!

this is such a good arrangement of materials i actually know and love - Rei guitars! i did a track using lots a the same source sounds it's like they are twins. i'll haveta re-up & send you a link.
Gordw
Gordw replied Unknown
The loops are great eh. This was one of the first mixes I did and to be honest, I thought it wasn't too bad. I'm sure someone could make my mix a lot better by adding or taking away but anyway...... That would be great....send me a link I would love to hear it.
Thanks very much for the review.
Take Care

Hey man, thanks for the comment. Detail and density - yeah, I get kinda carried away on that stuff sometime. Really glad you enjoyed it.
