on in my boots by mistervincropathy
I like both versions of this track but this one more because there's more presence, both vocally and musically in my opinion. You have a great vocal delivery esp those slides into singing voice. That's a hard message man, could not just walk on by. Demands to be heard. Thanks for yr work and peace.

on calmer than you dude by oasisduke
Now this is re-imagined from the ground up - like you took the original track & put it thru one of David Cronenberg's teleportation pods. Very Fly.

*[REVIEW FOR PREVIOUSLY POSTED SONG]*

OK that ending had me walking around the house looking under chairs and tables and stuff. I love the promo you've given us; think the gtr could use some more ... definition - I like the ambient strum, but it needs more of yr touch. Pno + drm are really solid. Thanks, OD!

cheers for the review. i never know what to do with loops that come over heavily effected. im always afraid if i try to tweak them, theyll just get lost in the added effect. if you think im capable, tho...i ll see what i can do with this one.
cheers for the review...always appreciated!

on Whirling Pool of Bloody Light by CalifKen
That's one helluva revisit to this track! A 12-inch vinyl extended mix if there ever was one.

Very groovy - and bloody - like yearning for destruction in the sun, that hateful most missed thing. Thanks, CK

*[URBAN COWBOY REVIEW]*
Well, coltsfoot is technically an herb, but I was leaning more towards hoofbeats

Might could use some coltsfoot for additional percussion, but those doubled up gtrs and the whackas at the end make this a lot of fun
oasisduke
oasisduke replied Unknown
...whats a coltsfoot?

**ahhhh! right on...i ll try to find some. good idea!

on 5 Centimeters by siensystem
I'm pretty in line with all the previous reviews - this is a devastating track. I would contend that it could use more glitch though. If you doubled the strings and roughed em up even for a second or two at the ley lines now that would be gritty! Awesome work, man - thanks!
siensystem
siensystem replied Unknown
Thanks Michael, I have added your ideas to my list and certainly hope to update this one with all the feedback I've received. I appreciate that you've listened. Thanks!

on Simple Life by d2d
Quite the hybrid track you got here - almost begs for versions. Thanks so much tho for knockin that detestable 'young country' crap out the door. What a great singer!!!
d2d
d2d replied Unknown
You're review reminds me... I do have another version of this tune. I'll post it in a few days.
I had NOTHING to do with the other version other than writing the song. You'll appreciate how different the 2 versions are. Yeah, this song begs for versions. I've sang it with acoustic only. I've had a few females sing it. & had another alt-rock guy sing it. everytime: the song gets folks who can relate to it and like the song.
I still feel honored each time I hear this girl sing ANYthing. To me, she's amazing. ;)
Thank you for taking the time to listen to it.

on love story by kosmin
It's a great theme you got here. If you could find some aco horns & strings to double the synthetics, man this would be rich. I'm a sucker for love stories - thanks, Kosmin.

on how could i been so wrong -Ill Cum Running Remix by CSoul
Nice new mix - killer percussives, man! I'm a big fan of Anomaly and this is a setting - a world - that calls out for some water blips (just kidding). Beauty.

Dig all the sound collisions & synergy on this track. I think the water effect is actually quite appropriate but may need some work to integrate.
CSoul
CSoul replied Unknown
Thanks Michael for your review and supperted words.
I uploaded a new arrangement about this track without water effect.
