on Another Brick In The Wall Part II Tribute To Floyd by MWRatridge

Bro, looks like that new studio set up is working out nicely for you! Great cover of what is one of the best songs ever written. Like Ed ssid, pretty close to the original and dude, you flat nailed the solo, hahaha....OUTSTANDING!!!!

Looking good brother. Here's to a great 2013. And onward and upward to part 3 of the series from Pink Floyd :)

MWRatridge replied 8th Jan 2013 - 13 years ago

Bear,
Thanks man. Yeah the solo was a looming challenge on this one. The more Floyd I do, the more Mr. Gilmour teaches me...the guy can play like no other. But yeah, I got it. I tried using the Les Paul for the main rhythm but humbuckers gave it too fat of a sound to try to mimic a Stratocaster. The new studio is a gem for sure and I have been blessed. I have a couple more Floyd in mind...
Mark.

on Rain of Love by JohnBoutilier

JB, you know how to ring the New Year in the right way!!!

I like it.....

a lot :)

Props for a great tune brother (the mix is stellar). Hope all is well with you and Amber. Here's to a great 2013 and you and Amber getting married.....

You rock dude.

on Modern Modal WIP by Sukuta

I think you nailed it :) And you succeeded with the modality, and the eastern vibe. I loved the vocal work on this one.

Not sure what else you need to do with this one, the mix seems pretty good as well. Might just need a final master, but like Anonami stated, thanks for making this few minutes of my day a really enjoyable experience.

Outstanding effort. Hope all is well.

on PRESS PLAY by bboles

You are sensational.

It really is that simple.

You definitely have the pipes to make it in this business. Great pitch, dynamics, control, inflection......you have it all.

Count me as a huge fan. I really look forward to more from you.

Bear

bboles replied 2nd Jan 2013 - 13 years ago

Thank you!!

on You Remind Me by bboles

Absolutely beautiful - really, really nice work. Another fantastic female vocalist on Looperman. I think our little corner of the world has some of the best singers in the business.

This really is special. Bravo and an overdue welcome to the Loop.

PS: My wife is really impressed as well.

Bear

bboles replied 2nd Jan 2013 - 13 years ago

Such a nice comment....VERY encouraging! I am new to the game, so it helps! Thanks a ton and looking forward to the continued connection :-)

on Eternal Divine by the47

I just listened to Janis' take on this, but thought I would stop by and tell you in person just how good this one is. As Dave said, this one is ready for prime time. You have some serious chops and compositional skills. Everything on this from the guitar to the bass to the drums to the piano to the strings is absolutely pro.

I would put this one in the top 10 on Looperman for sure. I'm going to take advantage of the download and listen to this one again and again. Thanks for that.

Seriously, one of the best pure rock/metal tracks I've heard in a long, long time.

And I listen to a bunch of rock/metal.

Bear

the47 replied 5th Jan 2013 - 13 years ago

Thank you for your support, I am sincerely very happy that other people like my work. Gives me a push to work harder and make more music.

Cheers bro!

on ETERNAL DIVINE - THE 47- by janis71

Wow.

And wow again.

Everything about this one screams "THIS SHOULD BE A HIT RECORD!!!!!!"

Brilliant vocals. Brilliant instrumentation.

Simply brilliant.

Did I say this was brilliant????

I hope all is well.

Bear

janis71 replied 3rd Jan 2013 - 13 years ago

Hi sweety ! No, I don't think you said it, lol !
I'm so so so happy you liked it, Bear ! We put much of our souls in it and I'm delighted you enjoyed what we did ...
It was like a heavenly present .. Kostya made it so beautiful that I felt like a little girl opening her Xmas present and discovering a marvel in the box . T'was so natural to hear sthg on such a gorgeous track .
Thank you Bear, you know how much your opinion is important to me .
I hope you had a nice time during these celebration days and that you're doing very well .
Kisses,
Janis

on What Youre Remembered For by davepowell1

Dave, I think OD hit the nail on the head....a bit like listening to Geddy Lee, and man that is a good thing.

It takes a great deal of courage and talent to sit down and record both vocals and guitar, and not use overdubs on the final product. You pulled it off and did yourself proud.

I can see myself sitting in a large arena, and you up in the spotlight playing your guitar and singing this song......

beautiful work.

Definitely one of the best songs I've heard in a while. I hope all is well.

Bear

davepowell1 replied 2nd Jan 2013 - 13 years ago

Damn Bear! I would love to play for this audience for sure brother....You all come over here take your time and listen and I wanna come back for more great comments. The next one just begs to be better man. I really hope I can live up to the billing. I'm going to invest in myself and get professional recording of my best songs here soon. I will credit the looperman site as well as some others for puttin gas in my car... Thank you Sir! You all are real good to me. If any of you are on facebook I would be very happy to have you as friends... Cheers!

on Welcome To The Party - Feat NePaul by JodyJames

Holy sh*t bro, this is smokin'.....

Man Jody, this beat is off the charts good, and then you put NePaul in the mix on vox and you've got something pretty special.

One of the best hip hop tracks I've heard this year (2012) and a definite download for me (thanks for that).

Outstanding bro!!

Bear

JodyJames replied 1st Jan 2013 - 13 years ago

I thought you might like this one...Glad you liked it.

Nepaul's Vox are just to dope to pass up..I just did another 1 for the new year called "In The New Year" features NePaul ...Luv how he just flows...Anyways,,Thanks for takin the time to have a listen much appreciated as always.
Have a good 1 Mr Bear

on God Give Me Strength by oasisduke

Your producer was right....

you killed it..........

He's got great taste in song choices and you could sing street names and make them sound good.

Your control, inflection, dynamics, perfect pitch and that buttery tone....well, simply sensational. Not sure why you aren't famous, but if you ever need a Bus and a Bear to drive it, just give me a holler :)

Absolutely stunning performance OD. I'll shut up now and hit the replay button. Hope the holidays were great for you, and here's to someone discovering your amazing skills in 2013. All my best.

Bear

oasisduke replied 17th Jun 2013 - 12 years ago

(humbly bows) ...from your lips, sir...

await my call. i will DEFINITELY be in need of a Bus and a Bear to drive it!

Thank you ever so much for your kind words. It is more than appreciated :)

on Aint nobody loves me but you-Collaboration by midiman007

Not sure how I missed this one, but I'm glad I found it! This is quality stuff and radio ready. If disco ever makes a comeback it will be because of tracks like this one.

This is just about as good as it gets. Great bass line, superb guitar work, and Patricia's flawless vocals over the top.....man, winner, winner, winner.

Fantastic work! It really shows your diversity.

And that lead guitar solo towards the end, AWESOME!!!!!

Bear

midiman007 replied 31st Dec 2012 - 13 years ago

As I stated to PatriciaEdwards I can not take the whole credit here. My05 laid down that kick butt tune I just added the 2 guitar tracks. I do appreciate the great reviews.

And thanks for the compliment on my guitar playing. I think my guitar playing is ok.

Hope all is well also with you and wish you a Happy New Year.

on Swoon by phonicaubade

You definitely succeeded with this one! It is a bit Enya-esque, truly ambient music at its finest. Like the others have stated, this one is perfect as it is.

Absolutely breathtaking in every way possible. I'll stand and applaud now.

Bravo.

Bear

phonicaubade replied 31st Dec 2012 - 13 years ago

Thank you so ever much :) Since Looperman only allows a certain amount to be uploaded, I had to cut it short. You can hear the fuller version on my soundcloud page :)

on corridor by doctorcatface

I love the descriptions of your songs....because your music paints the same picture your words do. That's pretty rare in this day and age....the ability to convey the same thoughts through music and text.

Intensely good music.

Bear

doctorcatface replied 31st Dec 2012 - 13 years ago

Very kind words, and it means alot coming from a loopfam titan such as yourself, i am deeply grateful for your time, and moved by your words, i didnt know others could see what i meant

this is why i consider this my home

ShortBusMusic 29th Dec 2012 18:36 - 13 years ago

on Sidestep by doctorcatface

I really like the way the guitar puts some real grime over the top of the synth, kind of like a greasy musical gravy, haha. Like Po5eidon, I would like to hear it with a more polished ending, but that is my only criticism. All in all, very nice work.

Bear

doctorcatface replied 31st Dec 2012 - 13 years ago

i really appreciate the feedback, i have a limited audience so i need all the direction i can get (still a just over year green)
i really want to tune my sound, and its comments like yours and po5eidon's that allow me to further myself
thank you so much

ShortBusMusic 29th Dec 2012 02:55 - 13 years ago

on Thank to ShortBusMusic by acidic

Acidic, first my thanks for the wonderful tribute. Second, epic work my friend!!! Like Patricia said, this one would be awesome with some great rock vocals on it. I could see this one as part of a soundtrack on a movie or used in a video game. Outstanding effort from start to finish. You had the old Bear hopping all over the place, haha.

Great work.

Bear

ShortBusMusic 29th Dec 2012 02:40 - 13 years ago

on Belleville by BlackKasper

Ahh, smooth, smooth track....a bit techno, a bit chill, and even a bit RnB. Any way you slice it, you have a terrific track. Love the modulation on the chords, really nicely done. You should be proud of this one, it is outstanding work. Hope all is well.

Bear

ShortBusMusic 22nd Dec 2012 03:15 - 13 years ago

on My life as a vintage videogame no drum by Jowe

This one would have worked really well in the Nintendo Zelda series....as Dan said, everything fits together perfectly and in the end, that is all any of us can ask for. Looks like you have figured out Reason pretty well.

Well done!

Bear

Jowe replied 22nd Dec 2012 - 13 years ago

Thank you, your reviews are very appreciated ! Your so kind too :) :D

And yeah, at the beginning it was pretty hard to catch how Reason works and I didn't really know witch style was the best for me. With practice I finally found my style. :P

ShortBusMusic 22nd Dec 2012 03:10 - 13 years ago

on Telekinesis FULL VERSION by Jowe

I think this qualifies as dub/cinema....a new genre perhaps. I like what you have done here. I think the idea of some dark breakdowns is good, perhaps even some subtle pauses would add to the suspense (just 5 seconds of silence in the right spots). But that is just nit picking. A really well done track for sure. I enjoyed it. I hope all is well.

Bear

Jowe replied 22nd Dec 2012 - 13 years ago

Thank you very much :) I'll certainly work on that track and do an Edit version as soon as possible.

And all those reviews give me motivations to create other songs :). They also help me to improve my works and my techniques.

ShortBusMusic 22nd Dec 2012 03:04 - 13 years ago

on December Snow by theHumps

It's fun to go back and listen to some of your older tunes, and this one is especially nice since it is the season :)

Absolutely beautifully constructed and orchestrated. It shows your compositional skills off nicely. A great tune to listen to with my hot chocolate tonight. Happy holidays Wayne. I hope all is well.

Bear

theHumps replied 22nd Dec 2012 - 13 years ago

Hey Bear, Happy Holidays! One of my first attempt at using loops and is one of my most dl'd song.??? haha, oh well.

The beach has been fun and I've made many friends and met a bunch of musicians down here. It was 80 degrees the other day and this morn it's 38. brrrrrr, lol! In the 70's almost every day, not bad for winter weather and no shoveling snow!!

Thanks and take care Grandpa!

on Love Me Hate Me by gothicevils

Pat Benatar move over, there's a new sheriff in town. This is outstanding work, really really well done. Great driving drums, great guitar work, and stellar vocals. It just does not get better than this.

I see you are having a tough time commenting. Maybe send Shan (admin@looperman.com) an email and tell him your difficulties and he can get things sorted for you.

Great effort here. I really enjoyed it. Happy holidays.

Beautiful song to wake up to this morning. It goes really well with my coffee :) Thanks for the short moment of peace and beauty JT. Happy holidays.

on Pace Of Life by brillbilly

Hey Brillbilly, thanks for the diversion! Sometimes it is good to just sit back and let the rhythms take us somewhere else....this one seems alive, the drums like a racing heartbeat.....

really, really well done. I'm glad you keep writing music, and especially glad you share it with all of us. Hope all is well.

Bear

brillbilly replied 18th Dec 2012 - 13 years ago

Thanks bear,as you know it's been a hard emotional week!

It was the only way i could find a place that eased my mind from thinking negitive thoughts!

Music can convey a message,but it also has that ability to take the mind to places without pain!

This track really sums up just how hectic and fast paced life can and how quick things can change!

Thank you for taking time to post comment bear!

life love n unity to you and your loved ones!

on Freedom by xpekt

You are just so good at this......you never, ever disappoint. Beautiful work and BK is right, this one does smell like freedom.

I would love to hear it if the Bedlam Kids ever put the finishing touches on it.

Outstanding from start to finish my friend. I hope all is well.

Bear

xpekt replied 16th Dec 2012 - 13 years ago

Thanks for stopping by Bear it's always a pleasure to hear from you :)

Yes I think this will be, eventually, a TBK track but we got 2 more in front of this one but I wanted to share the instrumental with the Looperman community, in fact it's exclusive to here!

Cya Bear and hope all is well on your side :)

on Plastic by visionarysoundsystem

Ahhh, another master's class in mixing :) Talk about putting everything where it needs to be, you flat nailed it. Crystal clear and as ggarris said, "GROOVIN"!!! Sometimes a one word review really describes a piece to a "T".

Simply awesome work. I haven't been by for a while, so this one was a real treat. And I really like the split percussion. It works perfectly.

Bear

visionarysoundsystem replied 18th Dec 2012 - 13 years ago

Hiya Bear all is good with me thanx & I hope it is with you & yours? Man what a lovely, positive review and I really appreciate it. Made my day reading this. Thanks my main man.
Peace, Love & respect.

on Pimp My Profile by scottsims1970

It just does not get much better than this.....especially on a Thursday morning, hahaha.

Nothing to critique here. Just a great song to turn the volume up to, and then kick back and enjoy your amazing work. Jazz/funk at its finest.

I look forward to your next posting. I hope you and your family have a happy holiday season.

Bear
