on eshar empire by Sector7even
what a ride!!!
when I recorded those loops I had so much fun with discovering how filters can guitars make sound like synths ... but you topped that!! awesome ...
did you change the track lately?? I think the dynamics is great, many different parts that are tied together perfectly (some great transitions in there!!!)
over all a pretty perfect production ...
thx for the credits!!!

peace, rei

oh, and one more: me and Eshar in one track, the first time!!! I guess I should dl some of her a capellas ....

on Butterfly Opens - Titanium Handles Lock Fast by n0mad23
it's great to see what happens when a creative and highly talented musician takes audio material and translates it into his own musical language ...
this is what you do!!
using loops can happen in different ways:
you can put them together without changing them and create good tracks ...
you can send them through filters and add a lot of effects to create something completely new far away from the original ...
that's all good ...
but you do something different in between:
you listen closely, you feel them, and you find out what is the strength of each loop you use ... this way you transform simple parts into a piece of art, somehow like a mosaic which is by far more than a nice arrangement of colorful little stones ... know what I mean???
tracks like this one tell me that it is right to give away some of my work for free, that means much more to me than earning a few bucks ... thank you!!

peace, rei

I'm so glad you approve of what I did with your guitar loops! As a performing musician, I really resisted this medium as I love the group dynamic - the many voices as one. I feel this is something loops can do now - to hear them as the "voice of a musician" and then find how they relate to each other. Sometimes when I'm making music like this (all live sessions, recorded as it plays) I feel like I'm playing with my guest musicians, only they are with me in spirit and not in the flesh.

And because of people like yourself who gift these amazing samples, the pallet at my disposal is truly awesome! That we participate and come together in a virtual community like this one actually gives me great optimism for humanity. My thanks goes also to you rei4real!

on Innovative by CyKosis
yep ... I love the vibes of that track!!!
simple lead riff, but awesome playing ... very relaxed
starting with a perfect intro the song delivers a lot of groove, it only could be a little bit longer, or maybe it's me who just want to listen to it a bit longer ... lol
of course the production could be a bit better, but this doesn't effect the song which is really great work!!!!

on that standing in the rain part [im7] by oasisduke
you have a unique way to play piano, and a more unique way to arrange songs around your ideas ... I just love your music.
what could I say more???

peace, rei
oasisduke
oasisduke replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
unique is good...i'll gladly take unique!
i think i compose for the piano as if it were a vocalist, since i rarely have one on my pieces and the piano and envoke just as much emotion in the listener as a great voice can, i think.
im honored you love my music, as i have been one of your biggest fans for quite some time now :).
cheers for the listen!

on TreRei by oasisduke
hey o.d.!!!
thx a lot for doing this ... you always use my loops in a perfect way that makes me just happy ... this one is no exception!!
and I need to find some spare time to take a listen to more of your tracks and see what I missed in the meantime .... ;-)

REI!!
long time no see...i was anxiously awaiting your listen of this track. i am so glad you liked it. and yes, it would be such a pleasure if you listened to some of my new work [i think youd dig The Standing in the Rain Part, one of my newer pieces] to hear how ive progressed.
youve really been one of the artist guiding me from the very beginning and i am forever greatful for it. and i still think ive done some of my best work with your loops.
so good to hear from you again..and so glad you liked what you heard. cheers for the listen, review and continued support...so very much appreciated!

on Say goodnight - Instrumental by stianh182
mighty sound here going on ....
steinaa is right, and there are some very little pitch issues on some bendings ...
but nevertheless it's a great work, cause I know how hard it is to mix big orchestral sounds with rock guitars ...
so: well done!!!
I really like this one ...

on Ray Koefoed - The Sum of a Body (BigPete music) by BigPete
another great inspiring track ...
some really great sounds in there ... love that combination of electronic and rock, this is very exciting (I know some tracks out there that miss that goal, this is by far not one of them ...)
awesome work ...

peace, rei
BigPete
BigPete replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
thanks Rei, again for your kind words, after doing the track I discovered that Ray had done a video (he is more a video programmer than musician) for the original mix of the track, so I edited his original video to fit my version of the song, check out the BigPete version of the video.

It's me who should be thanking you. Great job. All of you people on this site are so good at what you do. It makes me a little envious because I don't play any instruments YET. I only mix and write lyrics.
Thanks for your loops, I appreciate it

on Blood Red Sky by lasttriedtherapy
that's pretty nice!!!
you have a good voice lady, but you should use it with much more self confidence ... yes, you can ... lol
honestly, you have really potential!!
the arrangement is good so far, slowly building up, you keep the tension over the whole song ... except the intro, it doesn't make a listener very curious (don't know, how to describe better what I mean ...)
anyway, it's a good song!!! and I like it ....

on 16 Dead In Juarez by Songsender
yes ... I like that thing ...
southern blues rock feel, great!!!
a little bit variation would be coll though, that or a rough blues singer singing 'bout the sunset ... lol
anyway, this track makes me feel good, at that's what counts.

on Well I Tried Too by aliyarose
I listened to a couple of your songs now, and I can say that the ones only with acoustic guitar are your strongest moments ... and this track is a very very good one ...
I shouldn't say that, but if losing a boyfriend ends up with songs like this, you should lose some more ...
this is a brilliant composition, with perfect execution. no more, no less .... absolutely great song!!!

on Something Wicked This Way Comes by SpyderX
yep, MrE is right ... mix could be a little more balanced ...
but the song itself is well composed and arranged, and the concept is great!!!
mixing is mostly a matter of experience, but it's the key for a good sound ... I spend about 85% of the production time with mixing, sometimes more ... ;-)
over all this is a good track!!! great!

peace, rei
SpyderX
SpyderX replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
Dude, thank you a million times for listening to, and reviewing, my tune.

I know exactly what you mean about mixing down.

I seem to spend countless hours fiddling with all the knobs and sliders, but it still doesn't come out like I want it to (especially when vocals are involved). I know that part of the problem is that these cheesy desktop speakers don't reproduce any bass at all, but it's mostly (as you said) a matter of lack of experience. Hopefully, I'll get better at it as time goes on. I just need to learn the right techniques...

Thanks again for taking the time to give me a listen and post a review, rei. I really do consider you to be one of the best guitarists I've ever heard, bro, so it means a lot to me when someone such as yourself expresses a little interest.

Peace, bro.

on Moorlough Mischief and Ire (feat nabilkhazzaka) by n0mad23
mmmmmh ... this is what I call "hypnotic" ...
that bassline is almost magnetic!
it's pretty rare to hear a track where the word "dope" fits so perfect than for this one ... ;-)
awesome work!!!
no weak points ... not at all ...

n0mad23 replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
rei - when I joined this site and started playing with loops I put up my first tracks as "Trance" because of their hypnotic quality. I'm glad I can still create this mental/emotional space with my work. I'm delighted and flattered that you improve! And I'm really delighted to see you've got more tracks up! Will be listening and reviewing more of yours shortly! Thanks much for the listen and review.

on Excommunicated by RayKoefoed
that's a real good track ... very 80's regarding the sounds ...
and pretty energetic ...
some lower frequencies would be a good addition imo, but that's no must, more a matter of taste ...
all in all it's a very solid production, very tight, with great vocal work and good arrangement ... great work so far!!

peace, rei

RayKoefoed replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
Thanks a lot rei, I think you are right, it certainly could use a much more pronounced bass instrument. I am putting the acapella up, maybe someone else will make better music for it. I have lost my interest in the song, I worked on it to long and ended up ruining the instruments with my overdoing the filters and equalizing. I was ready to move on anyway. Thanks.

woaaah!!! starts so gentle and then ... bammm!!!
awesome ... just awesome ...
I'm lovin everything in this masterpiece!!!
I'm a great fan of simple licks, many people seem to think that only the spectacular licks are hard to play and show the skills someone has ... I think you and me know it better ...
very very very good track!!!

Ahhhh Rei,

Hey man, thanks for checking out my latest. Guess I have a way of sucking folks in eh? hee hee.

Start out soft so you'll turn up your speakers...and then 'bam' as you say.

Your very right, people don't have to do blazing fast leads in order to make a nice song. The right notes at the right time works the best.
I keep wondering how to better myself with each new passing tune...but its hard.

Thanks again for your review.
Randy
