Your singing, with your wonderfully clear voice, fits beautifully into the musical foundation that Oli has created. You should definitely produce a radio edition of your last two songsI genuinely believe you have a great chance of lasting success! These aren't just words; they are my honest opinion.
Best wishes, Manuela
P.S. Thank you for your kind message on BC.

Thank you for the explanation! Now the connection is clear to me as well. Smile Another barrier overcome. *Smile*
No, I didnt know the band or the singer before. When the band supposedly broke up in 1998, I was only 13 years old. But I did a little research online and listened to the song "Would." What a great track!
Yes, the singer is famous and was probably one of the best in the genre. Its sad that he ended his own life in 2002 with Speedball. It was interesting to learn that the band never really officially broke up, despite claims to the contrary, and that they actually continued from 2005 onwards with different singersincluding William DuVall, whom I know and appreciate from Giraffe Tongue Orchestra. I even got to meet him personally in Leeds in 2016. Such a small world! *Smile*
Best regards, Manuela
I knew, and still know the band well. Their songs have been tattooed onto my soul. I was in my 20s in Portland, Oregon in the 90s. Which means I was about 3 hours south of Seattle during the whole "Grunge" movement. (Well, 3 hours depending on who was driving!) So, I was right in the heart of it. Because of that, for me, when Layne died, so did AIC. I appreciate the fact that they continued on, but I just couldn't get into them afterwards. I can absolutely respect the talent William brings to the table, but the chemistry just isn't the same, and it's not a chemistry that mixes with my own.
Funny thing about the song "Would" is that it's about Andrew Wood, another singer that died of a heroin overdose. Which more or less served as the catalyst for the entire "Seattle sound".
Anyhow, I could nerd out for hours on 90s music trivia. But I'll show restraint.
It is cool that you got to meet Mr. DuVall. I don't really know much about him, but he seems like hes a pretty cool guy. He had some impossibly big shoes to fill, and he seems to have done it well.
on Pin Cushion Medicine by ValveDriver
I do understand what a Pinkissen "Maenchen" is, but I dont quite grasp the term "Pinkissenmedizin." If I interpret Katharsis as a form of liberation or cleansing, which in this case is a reaction to great loss, then I struggle to see the connection to Pinkissen(medizin). I would love to know what you mean by Pinkissenmedizin.
Sending my warmest regards to Frau (V) Manuela as well!
Thank you for the warm welcome back. It's comforting to know that my lack of presence was noticed. I was having technical difficulties with my production set-up, and had to go a couple weeks with no production in the process of replacing, rebuilding, and reinstalling. Now, I'm up and running again with better equipment, and better software. So, at least being gone was for a good thing, and not one of tragedy.
Okay, now, to answer your question:
"Pin cushion medicine" is a lyric in the song "Hate To Feel", originally sung by Layne Staley of Alice In Chains, who tragically died of a heroin overdose. The term refers to the act of shooting up. Using a needle to inject heroin intravenously . His arm being the "pin cushion" for sticking the needle into, and the heroin itself being the "medicine". In short, it's a slang term for heroin use.
I don't know if you've ever listened to Alice In Chains or not, but, with you being a vocalist, I would love to know what your opinion is of Layne's voice. In my, (and many, many others) opinion, he's truly one of the greatest.
This track is cathartic to me because I have known a few people who have walked out of the proverbial door with the needle still hanging from their arm. So, for me to make this track, it was kind of a way to release the feeling that I get sometimes when I think about them too much.
I hope I explained that well enough. Hooray for language barriers, right? ;) But, I'm glad you asked!
I hope all is well with you and yours.
Do take care.

Its hard to believe that five years have passed since you first released this outstanding song. Its also been five years since we uploaded our first track hereback then, still under the name ManuS. A long time has passed, and unfortunately, Looperman hasnt exactly changed for the better.
But your song has lost none of its musical relevance. That alone shows what a truly gifted musician you aresomeone who knows exactly what theyre doing. Its wonderful that experienced artists like you are still around, offering so much to learn from.
A fantastic funk song of the highest quality!
Best wishes,
Manuela

You know that I've been a longtime friend of your musical stories. I deliberately say "stories" because I truly believe that all of your songs that I know tell a tale of home, joy, and a love for life. They radiate such a positive aura that goes far beyond the sounds and tones of your music. They create vivid images in the listener's mindsomething that very few here on LM can achieve.
Your productions are excellent and have a wonderfully traditional, folkloric touch. They have soul. I still remember times when you were unsure whether your productions were good enough. I always encouraged you to keep going. Believe me, youve reached a certain level of perfectionismthe good kind. I can only say, stay true to yourself. Keep going.
I also really appreciate that you take your time with your productions, because quality takes time. Your work is truly good.
Best wishes, Manuela
Your voice is a friendly and much respected one.
I actually utilize music as a means of expression. I believe we all feel this idiom of mathematics, it talks to the soul. It is penetrative and it reaches our deepest memories. I feel very excited when I get messages like yours. My life is devoted to man's well being and it has been a choice that I had to stay true to myself. I try to respect music since I love it. All these "songs" are shades of my existence. I love to listen to real musicians and I literally am "jealous" of their brilliant minds and souls.
I do know "perfect" is a term I cannot reach in any aspect of my life. I try to be bearable. If so, I feel that the day has been productive and meaningful.
For the time being I try to come up with these twelve pieces. Lately I do dedicate my spare time to these "traces of life" and I still feel joy and fulfillment.
It was great having this conversation with you.
Best wishes, Anthony

I've finally found the time to listen to this wonderful song. As always, it's beautifully structured and crystal clear. The sound is well-balanced, with nothing overpowering. It has a light, cheerful, and playful feel without ever slipping into the trivial.
A wonderfully danceable rhythm carries this song, whichlike alwaysis shaped by your flawless and beautiful vocals. Fantastic work! A song that truly stands out with its quality and excellent production.
Unfortunately, I can only give one heart. smile
Best wishes, and of course, a big compliment to Oli as well!

You and Danmed have unquestionably created a beautiful song here. Classic blues, straight out of the textbook! Wonderful, soulful music paired with equally heartfelt and excellently delivered lyrics. Well done!

on No need by AnthonyAttard
From around 0:38, when the main song begins, I really like it! You have utilized the soundstage very well and spread the instrumentation beautifully. All instruments have their space, nothing is too dominantjust perfect. The vocals come through clearly and are wonderfully supported, while the instrumental sections remain interesting. It creates a fantastic musical arc of tension.
For me, this is another musical highlight here on Looperman.
Best wishes, Manuela
I know what you mean, I too think this is not a part that really fits with the rest of the song. I kept it though because it gave the opportunity to make a change that would keep the listener content and interested. It would be something really fine if the track had a totally different development, more jazzy and sophisticated. Repetition, it is not the first time I say it's one of my weaknesses. This I can change, it is an open project. Your opinions need to be utilized for a better result. I will have to let things go for a while and then return to the arrangement for changes, new ideas may come.
It is good you like the rest of the song, in a way the final taste was O.K.
Real thanks for the constructive opinion, I will try to work on a new version of the intro but it is always somehow difficult to rearrange a project and I am still concerned about the whole. Repetition is something I can work more easily.
My best regards, Anthony
