on 4-3 - The last thing on my mind by BaoBou
Excellent song writing, and musicianship too yes. Dreamy track, very well done and am enjoyable last listen before sleep!

BaoBou replied 15th Oct 2023 - 2 years ago
Thank you my friend!
I also wrote it before I went to sleep and the vocals were recorded very low volume with loads of background noise because of this :)

Great lyrics man, read them on the page as I did the second listen. Excellent work my friend. To thine self be true is the saying isn't it? Good luck with the recording.

on Qwerty1 by Jynxz
Psychedelic phantasma. This would have made perfect sense back in the day when I enjoyed the occasional trip. Fortunately, like Obelix and the magic potion, it had a permanent effect on me, so it still makes sense lol. Groovy.

on Look What Theyve Done To My Song by theHumps
Scrolling thru the comments as I started listening, saw the link to the original so had a listen. I really like both! Your vox performance on this one is great. Is it just the two main guitar tracks? Sounds really fat and wide.

theHumps replied 15th Oct 2023 - 2 years ago
Yup, 2 guitar tracks, bass, drums and some singing. Rocked it up a bit!

on my nipples are hard just thinking about it by bringerofDOOM
Lets party! In your face, righteous madness. I love it when you drag out that saxophone (assuming it is you playing it again?). Harks back to some bygone era, or else a futuristic one. I'm almost imagining the bar room scene in the first Star Wars movie. Nice one.

Trippy. Like the ending. I haven't been checking in much but whenever I do I seem to stumble across one of yours. I'm not stalking you I promise lol. Hope you're good bro.

You have me dead to rights on being in stealth mode. Been being downright furtive, mate. But i’m mortified cuz i love getting comments and giving em and all that. I do keenly appreciate your listens, mate. I thought maybe i’d gone mainstream with this one so i’m happy with trippy.
Hope all’s good in your hemisphere!

Quiet here at the moment... I believe I've listened to this before. Great mash up, I don't know how you manage those transitions, so seamless. Great mix and master. Hope you're trucking along ok mate. Zoot.

on Look At You by dimestop
Nice work on the track Paul, you put a good touch on this one. Good depth to the mix. It's busy but it works. Good message too, too many people suffer in silence, and still stigma abounds. Hopefully it's changing a bit now...
dimestop
dimestop replied 29th Sep 2023 - 2 years ago
thanks for the stop off Chris, a cause i support and i'm happy to promote too many do suffer in silence, there is a lot of stigma too, but people are finally starting to realise mental health is an issue, i understand my own issues far better now than when i was younger spreading awareness is important. i dont have all the answers but it truly starts with yourself, i control IT now instead of the other way round, thanks again for the positives mate.

I like it pretty much as it is bro. Love the lyrics and your vox sound really good and genuine. A serious subject too, especially in good ole NZ with our atrocious stats on suicide, particularly teens and young adults. Nice work.

on there are things below by Shaman77
I've been playing around with distortion a bit lately but a bit more subtle than this. So I like it. It sounds savage. The balance between voice and music sounds ok on my headphones. Enjoyed the verse too.

Like it a lot bro. Really nice backing track. Vox sound good too, I reckon you could bring them up just a hair in the mix. Maybe.

Greetings. Not a genre I'm really familiar with but enjoyed nonetheless. Good positive and energetic vibe and a very good mix to my ears. Cheers, Zoot.
Mosaic
Mosaic replied 20th Sep 2023 - 2 years ago
Hi ya Zootman, thank you for being first to review this one, still a tad rusty as is first trance track for many years, as I had given up doing music, that aside very pleased you enjoyed even if not the genre you are familiar with, heading your way now to what tunes have up on the loop, Peace n Respect Mosaic

on 3 - Birds are singing - September update by BaoBou
Hi there Baobou, been too long since I've listened to one of your creations. Great upbeat tune, you slipped some pretty nice harmonies in there in a couple of places. Solid guitars and keys too, though no surprise there. All the best from Down Under.
BaoBou
BaoBou replied 15th Oct 2023 - 2 years ago
Thank you so much! I't a track that frustrates me and it might even go to hidden for a while until I find time to fix it... but still thanks, the nice words help :)

on Eight Dreams by monkwee
Damn I was busy watching real waves on the ocean, not the wave form so I wasn't ready for this to end. I didn't want this to finish! It has that velvety full texture you somehow produce. And the track itself feels as comfortable and warm as a well loved couch. Which is meant to be a compliment.

on lil peep type beat by randalld
Very nice sensuous slow mo vibe on this. Layering of the pads and vocal type synth are really beautiful. Bass is good too. Nicely mixed man, well done bro.
randalld
randalld replied 15th Sep 2023 - 2 years ago
thanks Zootman! I love the slow mo vibe the loop offered, it actually came with a lot of layering already done! added a synth, guitars, and sampled the sample lol. I mixed this with a different approach too using Goodhertz free trail plugins. Midside, Lossy and the vulf compressor has helped me tremendously with this beat.

on STEP IT OFF by T576
Lovely track. Sublime clean guitar. Had to go back and listen twice, tho partly to catch the vinyl sounds kingmt77 noted. I too am in awe of some peoples attention to what's going on in the production. I tend to just go with the flow and if I like it I like it. Not too much analysis generally:) But this had a great flow, glad I checked in.

T576 replied 9th Sep 2023 - 2 years ago
Thank you, Zoot, for the two time listen, and comment. Always appreciate when you take the time to show some love for a track of mine. MT and I always go back and forth trading observations and sonic critiques. As for the vinyl effect, I made it very Suttle, almost subliminal to fill in a dimension of the music that you would have to listen to it with different intentions to even know its there. I call it surgical listening. Kind of like when you can identify what frequency a sound sits in. Valuable skill to have when you're mixing and mastering and even sound designing. Thanks again. PEACE. T576 OUT.
