on I always said that fate is a game by Shaman77
Impenetrable verse at least to me, but suggestive of meaning of some sort. Thanks for the words you send me, I haven't looked at them yet but will soon. Chris.

on BILBOZO - Who Am I by Bilbozo
Keeping the rock flag flying here on the loop, we need that! great driving guitars. You did an awesome job writing the music around the vox. Mix and production are out of this world.

on walked alone by randalld
I dig it bro. Prob said this before but I really like your voice. For a jam and one mic it sounds pretty decent to me. I've done the same thing on a track called to the sea. Doesn't leave many options for mixing etc but it's fun and spontaneity counts in my book. It's good as it is but equally you could develop it and work it up into a more produced thing.

thanks zootman! yeah for a jam session I was happy with this, I just zoned out and everything came together lol. I’m happy with this version for now, maybe in the future I’ll do a re-mix. And also you’re right, you can’t really mix a single mp3 file to much, all I did on this was split the file into a left and right channel at 3% stemming from the main(4.00hz) at 3.94hz(left) and 4.00hz(right). That’s a trick I’ve learned for creating natural vibrato with one file. Anyways, I believe spontaneity counts too! Most of my music is freestyled/punch in songs. Thanks for the comment zootman.

on North London Post-Punk Scene by Mr Axel by MrAxel
I feel like I remember listening to this a ways back and commenting but maybe I just faved it... Anyway, faved now sure. Great track as it is but with a vocal too, that would be killer. I was actually randomly going back in time the other day and listening to The Skids, this track isn't similar at all except maybe the attitude.... Gonna have to do some more time travelling.

on heliotrope by xstokes
Hi Mr Stokes. I've used Freesound too, tho generally for sound fx. I'll have to delve deeper I can see. This is like a twisted version of something Helios might have done. And man I love a double bass.
xstokes
xstokes replied 19th Jul 2023 - 2 years ago
i can get with helios! freesound is like another planet i get to explore. i love searching on abstract keywords and sorting results from shortest to longest. lots of the things i plunder are in the under 2 seconds range. mixing these with longer loops is kinda my modus operandi at this time. got a hopefully much better pc i neeed to get running that i hope opens some new doors.
hope all’s well, Chris.

on need our escapes by randalld
Hi, I enjoyed this man. Liked the lyric, vocal performance was good, compelling, felt like a few places where you really got a flow going. The backing vox in the chorus with the on and ons worked well. Nice one bro.

on BIG BASH - OPEN FEARS by BIGBASH
superb man, you going to add to it? Some freak show vocals maybe? Great mix and production too, hit the spot with me. Just a bit more variation or additional elements....for what my opinion is worth.
BIGBASH
BIGBASH replied 1st Jun 2023 - 2 years ago
Thank you my guy. Glad you think my production and mix was good since its something I really struggle with, so really happy about that :)

Your opinion is appreciated by me.
And don't think I will add to it, vocals might be pretty cool but I don't sing lol.

Excellent man. Trippy and spacey. Love those reverb heavy cascades. Guitars tasty as hell. Great change of gears at the two minutes mark. Really enjoyed this one.

Hello Zoot,

I was telling Ian that I am doing more experimenting
with getting some new (new to me lol) sounds. There are
so many toys that I'm sure I have just scratched the surface
with. I think I'm starting to get the logic of being able to make certain sounds sound a certain way (if that makes sense) You know, trying to translate the sounds in my head to sounds on a track.

I am glad you stopped by and listened, downloaded and faved this track and lived to tell about it lol.

houhanga a rongo from the topside...

on Expectations feat Pane by Micky
What a vibe. Superb vocal. Your music incredible. I love the subtle detail in the back, and the up front guitars and synths and percs are plain wicked. Sound quality amazing too!

Hello Chris.
I'm always flashed about the fact that someone in New Zealand hears and even likes my work here from the Neanderthal! Well, world fame won't be long in coming, huh?
Nice of you to check it out regularly... thank you and all the best to you, your family and friends in NZ.

Cheers,
Micky

on Kansas City by theHumps
Hell yeah, I hope this isn't autobiographical!! Or actually, thinking about it, it would be even cooler if it was true. You have a great knack of making these really fun, lighthearted and humorous songs. Excellent horns and guitars and drums and....
theHumps
theHumps replied 1st May 2023 - 2 years ago
Glad you liked it! Plenty of humor in my songs, hope someone picks out the most obvious bit of humor(hint, it's at the end of the lead).

No, not autobiographical, ha!

Yeah well, everyone seems to have said everything before. I am in awe of your guitar playing. Love the clean sound on that. Keys are spot on. The composition itself is great. And the sound is pure lusciousness.

T576 replied 1st May 2023 - 2 years ago
Thank you Zoot, for the stop by and positive comment. If I'm feeling a track, my playing is a lot easier than if I'm just doing a track that only requires an 8 or 16bar solo, so when I'm able to stretch out I can make some things happen. Thanks again. PEACE. T576 OUT.

on A dark dreamy day by joecramer
Kia ora, this is a wonderful track. I found it beautiful and uplifting. I love the melodies and the sounds you used to translate it are perfect. Production is amazing. Four and a half minutes went by so fast. Had to listen again. All the best man.

Thank you very much Zootman,
for your really very friendly comment.
I am very happy that you like this song so much. It's nice to hear that you listened to it again.
For that alone, the effort I put into it was really worth it.

Thank you again for the time you gave up :)

stay tuned
