on Take My Crown by the47
Pretty mean track. Those kick drums are insane. Great mix too, very pro. For a second or two I had some Faith No More vibes but heavier. Maybe it's the slight cinematic quality with the strings. Cheers Zoot.

on Sadness by TheFrenZ
One of the old dogs, still on a roll lol. This is a beautiful track, slightly melancholy as you suggest, and introspective which is fine by me. Lovely bass and I love a good pad or three. I'm still totally into a lot of the stuff you're producing here. I liked it from the get-go. Cheers Zoot.

Glad you like it.

on Forgive Me by JAICrews
Yep, funky alright with a dash of soul maybe. Love the slap bass on this. Guitar sounds great as usual. Production sounds crisp on the top end and the bass is just low down dirty in a good way. Enjoyable listen. Cheers Zoot.

on Funky Biscuit by kingmt77
I can't believe it's taken me this long to listen to this, cause I always enjoy the trip. Amazing work, cram full of amazing ideas but still completely coherent. Astounding really.... Cheers Chris.

on A047 LoFi Jam Volca Keys FM2 y Keytar by FrANNAVARRO
Interesting track. The pads and bass at the start are beautiful. I was digging those. The guitar I also liked. Maybe more so with some reverb or delay, not sure. Cool work though. Cheers Zoot.

on Heartbreak Reckoning by Hertsville
Cool track, wicked vocal. Great production too. Blues as much as country in my opinion but whatever. Cheers Zoot.

Thanks for the comments. Sometimes blues does ring at the back of my mind. But not always sure. :))

Hi Mathias, I'm not much of a clubber but if I was and I heard this it would light my dial big time. Great track, driving beat, cool fx. Cheers Chris.

Hi Chris,
I hope you're doing well. It's finally winter again here. The first time in years. I'm enjoying sitting in front of my DAW and thinking back for a few seconds to the time when I could still move on the dance floor.
Greetings

Great track, digging this vibe big time. Love the lazy beat, vocals fit perfect. To me this is Sunday morning music, recovery from a night out. Cheers Zoot.

Nice work FrenZ. Catchy little number for real. I see an ants nest, all those little insects working away cooperatively...

on Woke Up This Mornin by MPOProduction
Not enough reggae here!! We need more. I wouldn't necessarily call it Roots, but that's ok. Got some soul influence maybe. Regardless, this fairly jumps out of my head phones and seriously swings, vocals are awesome, horns sweet, lyrics good. Ticks a lot of boxes for me.

MPOProduction replied 8th Feb 2026 - 4 months ago
Thanks for your feedback, I really appreciated it. Reggae forever, haha. I created the horns using Native Instruments Valves Pro. Its an amazing tool, but unfortunately pretty damn expensive.

on Today - feat True Sisters by fanisatt
I think Manuela is having a resurgence here, given all these tracks with her vocals, she must be haunting us. Respect on this track, I"ve never tried to build a whole song around an acapella and I think it would not be easy, and probably beyond me. Cheers Zoot.

fanisatt replied 12th Feb 2026 - 4 months ago
I am glad you like it Zoot ! Thank you very much for your so kind comment !! About a year ago I honestly believed that it was impossible for me (an amateur...) to work with acapella. But I liked some of the acapella works I heard here so much that I decided to try... and whatever comes of it...!!! Cheersssssssssssssssssssss !!

on Sonido Nu Latino by Cosmo
Digging this. I love Latin music but as you say, this is New Latin music. I like the almost sparse arrangement in places, there's almost a dub or ambient influence somehow in there, as well as the jazz, and world elements. Love marimbas too. Great work, thanks for sharing. Zoot.

I love your approach to music. Fearlessly doing what you want creatively. It pays off on tracks like this. This is really beautiful well done. Cheers Zoot.

Thanks again. Music creation Is my hobby in my old age and therefore no obligations for the future, which gives you the freedom to make what you want, not what you have to.

on Saving Me by Kayos2
Beautiful all around as always. As a surfer there are times of struggle and fear! But mostly it is peace and space and meditation. But your lyrics and metaphor are spot on, as is your emotive voice and music. Wonderful stuff indeed.

Hi, nice guitar tone. It's a bit raga like. What's the bpm? Cheers Zoot.

Hi Zootman, I played without a tempo, so can't tell really. I've got the mustang plugin from fender in the DAW now which is quite nice to have.

on A Taste of Love by ShortBusMusic
Hi there, really enjoying this. It seems to emanate peace and goodwill somehow. Beautiful chords and guitar. Funny you colab with tumbleweed, I got confused as my first thought on hearing this was that this was his work! Great listen, been struggling to find much I like and want to comment on, at least in featured tracks lately. Cheers Zoot

Hey Zoot, thanks for stopping by. I have collaborated with Ed on a few tunes, and this one would have been much better with Ed on it instead of me, haha. I am glad you enjoyed it and hope it brought a moment of peace for you. As always, your time and kindness are appreciated. I hope all is well.

Hey AJ. I always look forward to hearing your stuff. Always lyrically interesting, often challenging. You blur the lines between a lot of things. I like that. Cheers Zoot.

on Can you get down with this by JAI26
Cool, I like the aggressive vocal. I haven't dabbled in AI at all, for better or worse I just want to create what I can on my own terms. I don't mind people using AI,but I want to know if what I'm listening to was created by a human. I know, it begs the question that if I can't tell the difference, why does it matter? ... it just does matter to me.
