on Rainy Night in Staly - Quant1ze by Eato
Hey Eato, I have to agree with Pat. I wouldn't believe that it would be possible to have a track this laid back with a tempo of 170bpm (especially drum and bass), but you really pulled it off. Nice production, with a nice clear mix.

I appreciate the shout out. Keep at it.

on Purple Rain-cover by janis71
There are covers, and then there are covers that actually are as good as, or even better than the original. This one borders on the latter. This is one of my wife's favorite Prince songs of all time. She's heard many covers of it, and was never really impressed. HOWEVER, your cover had her standing and applauding. She said she would PAY for your version!!! That means she was hugely impressed.

But since you put it up for download, I grabbed a copy and she will have it at the top of her favorite song playlist on her IPod. She thanks you for that :)

Absolutely one of the best renditions I have ever heard of this song (the backing track is awesome). You are one hugely talented young lady. Prince would be proud of this version, that's how good it is.

You made me burst out laughing, Bear !
My compliments to your sweet wife ;)

Oh would he ?! I think he would kid me 'bout my pronunciation and awkwardness in interpretation !

I'm blushing while reading the last part of your undeserved comment, Bear ...
Big hugs and kisses to you both .
Thanks a lot for all these smiles of joy you put on my face, my dear friend ...

on Una Lagrima Furtiva-Donizetti-cover by janis71
Pavarotti never did this any better than you just did...

I cannot believe I missed this.

Once again, you have rendered this old Bear speechless. Absolutely stunning performance.

You truly are a gift to all of us. Thank you for sharing your immense talent with all of us. Thank you for the download as well. I have added this to my collection of classical greats because you belong right there with the best of them. I hope all is well.

So, in a way, I'll be there when you'll have a nice coffee listening to that, Bear ;)
Oh la la .. don't speak such undeserved compliments ... ! I've just been in love with that piece for a long time and wanted to put a little of my heart in it, with vocal weaknesses in terms of "legato" and many other defects .. but it finally sounded like I wished, as best as I could .
My warmest thank you for your so gentle comment, dear Bear ... !
Yeah, how can't all be well with such nice people as you paying me a visit here ? ;)
Big hugs from my snowy Frenchie village,

on Daydreaming by BunnieRabbit
My friend Malu has exceptional taste. I always love it when he points out these little "gems" he finds perusing the Loop. I liked the first song you posted.

I absolutely LOVE THIS ONE!!!!

As others have stated, the intimacy of an acoustic and a vocalist is probably one of the most beautiful of all musical interactions......especially when the guitar and vocals are this good.

You are a rare talent. I would love to hear this one after Malu gets a professional mix and master on it.

Did I say I am a sucker for strings?

Beautiful work. Thanks for sharing.

on ONE NIGHT by Timmons2
First, major props my friend on a song that is current, and could be playing on the radio anywhere across this country. Matthew's voice has a nice timbre to it, but the secret to this one's success is the music wrapped around the vocals.

There is nothing to critique here - simply my admiration for writing, arranging, and producing a song that could easily be a hit record.

Top shelf material. Now I'm standing and applauding!!! Well done to both of you.

OUTSTANDING!!!!

Bear

Timmons2 replied 13th Mar 2013 - 13 years ago
Thanks again, I appreciate everything you have said! I try to do the best I can with these records which is why I am so critical of myself. But I'm glad to hear from you. Hope everything is well with you and your family.

on Ill Be Waiting by BunnieRabbit
Outstanding vocal effort on this one.....the mix is pretty good as well. I, like Malu, would love to hear you in other genres. It's not that I dislike DnB, but I think you have the chops to excel in just about any genre.

Anyway, I digress. Welcome to Looperman and I look forward to many more songs from you.

Well done!!!

on Would You care live by 2littleducks
Rachel, this is absolutely beautiful. It sounds like it was recorded in an empty auditorium (which is one of the greatest recording methods ever). This is so intimate, and clear and really amazing work.

I agree with the "album quality material" comment. Fabulous work. I hope all is well.

on But Love Would Not Let Me by Twanna1
Hey Twanna, sorry it took me so long to drop by.....but like fine wine, this one is well worth the wait. I absolutely love your voice. As Dave so eloquently stated, you are a special talent and it is a shame the world hasn't had the opportunity to hear your work.

Who knows, perhaps in the near future some really smart and alert A/R rep will pay your profile a visit. Until then, just know you have fans out here who think you are amazing.

I hope all is well with you. All my best.

Hey Bear, thank you so much for stopping by and commenting on the track. My heart is so touched by your friendship and appreciation.

As I shared with Dave, I was so inspired to compose this, I believe, to share the message with many. I know that in "His" timing, this will happen.

God bless you, my friend and have a wonderful week.

on Im Missing You ft Patricia Edwards by musiclover38
Soren, you and Patricia have me standing and applauding!!!!!!

Absolutely one of the best tracks I have ever heard on Looperman. My oh my, this is so good I can't even describe it. Downloaded to enjoy again and again.

This was like have SRV and Billie Holiday together in the same room!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BRAVO, BRAVO, and how about an ENCORE......

WOW!!!!

Bear

musiclover38 replied 5th Mar 2013 - 13 years ago
Welcome back mr. Bear :-) SRV and Billie! That is just about the biggest pat on the back that have ever recieved. He started it all for me, so I'm glad if people can hear that, but there will always just be one Stevie, as there should be. Even though no one could ever be another Stevie, it means the world to me, that you chose to compare me to him.

Patricia did everything for this one. I just followed her lead, so it was a (pride and) joy to work with someone that talented. A thing I havn't tried before, so I really had to give it my best :-)

I too hope, that there will be an encore someday.

Speaking of Stevie - I made a little tribute to him, and would love for you to contribute along with, Ed, Marty myself and Jamie. In your own time of course. I know you're a busy man :-)

So, you really know how to set the bar really, really high on your first foray into deep house, hahaha. Now what are you going to do for an encore???

Outstanding effort. I personally look forward to your next one. This shows just how versatile you are.

Awesome.

Lol as you know or should by now,i cant replicate!

I cant read music either, but i do play guitar n keyboards but im self taught.!

I have to feel my way through what i produce,and hit n hope really,as i just put sounds on lines and tweek to my own vib,so if i like i can try any genre,but i have to be in the right frame of mind!.

Doing this as a way of encapsulation my feelings gives me a buzz,because the next day when i play back,even i dont know how i managed to make it sound ok...lol

Thanks for dropping in and leaving your kind comments.!

Im still smiling as the world rushes by!

Life love n unity to you and your loved ones!

Behnam, please upload your tracks for all of us to listen to. You don't need my permission to use my loops. They are here for you to use in your tracks. I'm just happy that you think they are worthy of your music. So, yes my friend, upload your tracks and I would be honored to listen and comment on them. I hope all is well.

on Melina by Dakotamoon666
Congratulations on the birth of your granddaughter!!! I finally became a grandfather for the first time in July of last year. It is probably one of the best experiences of my life.

This track is a wonderful tribute to her. Very well done. Almost cinematic hip hop :) I enjoyed it a lot. Thanks for sharing and enjoy the new baby.

on The Best Feeling by Planetjazzbass
Not sure how I missed this one gents, but I'm glad I found it. I actually think you two were twins, separated at birth, and then luckily for all of us, found each other here on Looperman.

Freaking genius at every last level. There is never a dull moment when you guys put on your creative hats. Those guitar riffs are just sick....sweep picking and shreddage as it should be!!!

STELLAR WORK!!!

ShortBusMusic
Behnam my friend, this is absolutely beautiful work.

You have carefully wrapped the vocals in this amazing arrangement, using pads and textured synths as the cloth, and the piano as the stitching.....the sounds of nature for accents.

Simply beautiful from start to finish. You are one talented guy. Thanks for sharing this one with us. I hope all is well.

on My first Ableton Track by ElectronBlue
I'm impressed 12string, I couldn't even get any sound out of Ableton, and now use the CD to scare off the birds in my garden, hahaha.

Seriously though, it is impressive that you were able to record this after only 4 weeks. Like Ed, I like something a bit simpler for my tunes, more plug and play. I'm no good with a computer, so the less I have to do, the better off I am.

Anyway, really smooth track that I would put in the chill genre. A great way for me to wind down at the end of the day. I liked your guitar and synth work on this one. Well done.

Bear
ElectronBlue
ElectronBlue replied 5th Mar 2013 - 13 years ago
Thanks "shortbusmusic" for your kind comment. lol @ the birds comment I am sure it wasn't that bad but at least the birds get to enjoy it. I know what you mean as I had a few disasters before I posted my first bit of a try with ableton. Ableton is not like Sonar or Cubase that's all linear and you just arrange it as you go. Once I can figure out how to arrange things better I will re post it. Also the track has an annoying blip sound and I can't figure out where it came from. I don't think I could ever reproduce the flute track as I was just jamming along with the flute sound on my synth to the rest of the track. You know how it is so I hope I don't mess thing up. The guitar part is boring so I am going to work on that and try to make it a little more interesting, mabe a little acoustic fingerpicking.

Janis, you are such a special talent, but when you combine your skills with those of Ed, it is a magical moment indeed. Your voice is nothing short of spectacular, with perfect pitch, intonation, and inflection. You are truly a rare talent and we are all lucky you have graced Looperman with your presence. Thanks to you and Ed for this wonderful collaboration. Definitely added to my favorites. I hope all is well.

on spankin the plank by gator
Gator I have to agree with Ed on this one. Seldom is the blues played any finer than this. Love the tone...sounds a bit like Jonny Lang, and that's a good thing. Great bass work, drums were spot on, and that lead work is special stuff. Glad I ended my day with this one. Outstanding effort. Thanks for posting this jewel. Hope all is well.

I am absolutely at a loss for words. Like Ed, if I try to describe how this made me feel, I will simply fall miserably short. Very few singers have the ability to leave their listeners speechless. You are one of those few.

All I can say is BRAVO young lady, and hope for an encore. I will cherish this download (thank you for that) and enjoy it over and over again.

You really are a marvelous talent. Thank you for sharing your gifts with all of us.

on Taken by bbelle
Bro, this is definitely epic work. Volume worked just fine on my system, so as far as I am concerned the mix is spot on. One thing is for sure, your mixes are always crystal clear. There is a lot going on in this one and I can hear everything quite nicely. This one would work really well in a film. My only critique would be to smooth out the ending just a bit. Other than that it is perfect.

Awesome stuff.
