Jamie, it's been a while and I thought I should stop by to hear what you've been up to....wow, glad I did. This is fantastic. I can see the Zappa/Santana references (and your tone is off the charts good).
Some really nice synth work as well.
Fantastic piece of work here. Definitely ready for prime time. Hope all is well.
Outstanding work here....the mix is especially tasty. I absolutely love everything about this one....kind of a modern day Pink Floyd. All you are missing is the guitar.....maybe Ed (Tumbleweed) could throw some Strat work on this one and you guys could be the new Pink Floyd.
My friend, just a quick update. The mp3 was flawless, so after some head scratching, I figured out there is something going on with my flash player....
So, I uninstalled and installed an earlier version of Flash and now things are crystal clear here on Looperman :)
My bad and sorry for making you go back and search for something that wasn't there. It sounds great through my headphones. Next time I'll make sure I listen to the download first before reviewing. I hope all is well.
Then im real pleased i helped you get better flash player lol.
It's all good my friend,please dont feel you put me through a listening nightmare,i just opened up my magix,opened up my Sunset to Sunrise project and pressed play!.
It was that easy,but if i had the ability to use my FL or Reason which i dont lol,then i would not have known where to start as it took me 20 mins to find the play button!
Beautiful work my friend, a great way to begin my day. A cup of great coffee and this wonderful song playing in the background....doesn't get much better than this.
On my second listen now and I hear some tiny clicks in spots (not trying to nit pick) and I'm not sure if they are on my end, an issue with compression on your upload, or possibly clicking where you joined loops in spots. If it is an issue with joining loops, all you have to do is crossfade them and you will eliminate the clicks.
Again, I love this and I hope you don't think I'm nit picking. I'm going to download it and see if it might be my system causing problems. Hope all is well.
I have listened again and again to my copys and the master. I cant find glitch,but i hope there is a fault,then it just backs up my status as novice,lol.
Thank you so much for your kind comments and i find it comforting that you have only my best intrests at heart regarding my music!.
No i dont take it as nitpicking,i take it as a great compliment that you listen to the finer detail!
There is nothing better than listening to REAL instruments being PLAYED by people with TALENT. While many of the "computer playing musicians" fail to realize this, your work here graphically illustrates why live instrumentation is so important.
This is beautiful on many different levels, food for the soul and the mind. A tip of the hat to you and Detleft for an amazing collaboration. Keep playing those instruments guys.
Hey Bear...thanks man!..I know there's heaps of people playing instruments and it's never going to go out of style,but sometimes around this neck of the woods one does wonder sometimes!lol.....how anyone can can claim to create music without playing an instrument has always perplexed me,but we live in strange times with even stranger people! ....cheers mate,always great to hear from you.
Dave
Love that piano....gives things a Coldplay feel, then when the vox drops it moves into Heart mode. I have to say you flat nailed it my friend.
While this one may sound retro, it would fit well on the radio today. Good music is timeless and has its place, no matter what decade it may be, and this is really good music!!!
Outstanding mix....everything is sitting nicely where it belongs.
Terrific work here, really really good stuff. Hope all is well.
Wow Twanna, this is fantastic. Your dad would have loved Allen's amazing guitar work. Thanks for including me in this amazing track. This one is definitely ready for prime time. It would be awesome to hear it in a film.
Your genius is not limited to your wonderful voice, it also extends to your production and arranging skills.
Absolutely fantastic work - and a huge tip of the hat to Allen.
Wow, wow, and wow!!!!!! Wishing I had the old favorite button back again :) I hope you are well.
This one definitely has a current vibe to it....I would think there are several great female singers on this site who could really add some vocal magic to what is already a great tune.
Maybe someone like StephanieKay (she's the first to come to mind)....
Really great start and hopefully someone will jump on board and help you finish it up.
This is definitely one of the more complex tracks that I have done and it provided me with many many hours in my little room. I appreciate the thoughtful feedback and support.
Brillbilly, like Pete, this is a wonderful way to begin my day. You have a real gift for putting real emotion in your music.....something not easily accomplished.
The interplay with the instruments and the marvelous vocal snippets paint a beautiful picture.
This one is so good on so many different levels. Absolutely a piece for the ages. I have downloaded this (thank you for that) and will enjoy it many, many more times.
Another spectacular effort (I'm rapidly becoming a huge fan). Your harmonies are perfect. It would be special to hear what you could do in a real studio environment.
Thanks for putting a smile on my face today. I will be back for many more listens.
exceptional control (pitch is spot on) and your dynamics are really, really nice.
You have a wonderful warm tone and a current sound...you just need the right song to make it all work. This site gets a lot of traffic from a lot of people. Who knows who is listening???
Best of luck to you. And it is great to have another supremely talented vocalist in our midst.
This one is ready for prime time and should be playing on the radio. Kelly's voice is just spectacular, but when you combine her talents with your production genius, well, that's solid gold.
Seriously, this is top shelf material. I just hope someone comes along and helps you two take this one to the next level. Hey, when you get famous, I've got a bus you can use :)
Thank you again for your praise of the song. Kelly's voice was the true inspiration for the production of this record. I wanted to make sure that her voice didn't get tarnashed. I wanted to match up powerful drums with her powerful voice. Believe me, it wasn't easy. I just want to say thank you, sir. I just might call you one day for that bus!
JT, absolutely stunning work here. Lovely chord progressions, and the choice of instrumentation is spot on. Like Danbo said, this one really put a smile on my face as well. The mix is really nice too....everything is balanced just right.
Any time I go looking for ambient music, I head straight over to Mr. and Mrs. Zero. Z2Z is the king of ambient, nobody does it better. Having Z2Z on Looperman is like having Erik Satie or Brian Eno right here in our midst.
This one was an absolute treat. Downloaded for those times when I need quiet inspiration (thanks for that). I do hope you both are well.
what has helped inspired me is where I live and
with whom I live with the both of them are
a wonderful team to. Little ole z gets more insperation
and thoughts from the heart and then this drives ones
imagination.
shortbusmusic ill take the Brian Eno anytime
he was the guy i listened to and went further into
other artist in the ambient field i listened for
ten years before attempting this general and wondered
how i could make my own style.
Thanks so much for your kindness and surport
Serge, it has been a real privilege to watch you become an accomplished composer, producer, arranger, and sound engineer. I remember some of your earlier work...you always had huge potential. This song proves you have realized that potential. This is absolutely beautiful, a masterpiece.
Man, if that is you singing, you have one heck of a good voice. The harmonies are really, really tight. I'm not sure where you have been hiding, but quality work like this should get you discovered in no time.
Brill, I think you just may have discovered your niche :) I am a huge fan of cinematic music and this is as good as many songs I've heard in film over the past few decades. I like the way you stripped things down a bit and gave all of the different instruments and voices some room to breathe.
Absolutely fabulous work. The mix is spot on. Bravo maestro.
I can only make tracks that i can feel from within!
I have no real format,i just take what mood i'm in and start to convey it through sounds,when i'm happy i do Trance,when im calm i go more for chillout.
But sometimes i fall in to a mystical world,or thoughts of ancient worlds,lost civilisations,myths n legends,so to capture my thoughts i made this cinematic Track !
I offer all for free enjoyment and i take every reply with a humble thankyou!.
I'm so gratefull so many great artists like your good self,take time out to give very kind comments
Hey Vis, I know you have this one up for a collaboration, but I have to be honest and tell you I think it stands on its own pretty well. This song would work really well in a film or short video.....perhaps a car commercial or something to do with the Tour de France. The mix is really nice, love that warm bass in this one.
Another exceptional effort. If someone does add something to it, I would love to hear it. Very nicely done and I had to grab a download. Thanks for that.
Hiya Bear my friend. It is always a pleasure to hear from my favourite addition to the Grandpa stakes. Hope all is well? Thanx so much for taking time to listen & review, it is greatly appreciated. So far no definate offers to collab. I want to take this track a touch further and will possibly have to do so my-self. Just waiting for the inspiration to do so. I am humbled by your opinion that this would work as a "soundtrack". Mate that is high praise indeed. If/when I get an offer or re-visit my-self I will post up the remix. Thanx so very much again for looking in to my lil corner of the Loop.
Richie, you keep raising the bar. I'm a huge fan of Hayden's work, but you really elevated it to the next level. As Ed so astutely pointed out, the mix on this one is absolutely flawless. This one sounds like you two were sitting in the studio together.
Nothing to add here other than my congratulations on another hit. As Dave said, this one could be playing on any radio station in any country across this great globe we all like on. It is that good. Downloaded for many more listens. Thanks for that.
Always good to hear from you and thank you so much for the kind comments. Hayden is an immense talent and I really enjoyed working on this with him. I hope we will collaborate on some more songs in the future. Great comments on the mix - thank you.
Vicen my friend, it is always a treat to visit your page. You move seamlessly through any genre and you do them all well. I think pop/rock is the area where you really shine.
As Jamie said, this is classic Vicen and it is outstanding work. Well done!!
And I really appreciate how you translate the lyrics for all of us. Outstanding.
Man, this is really nice work. Love the tone on that guitar....amazing what you can get out of that RP155. I know this track is a couple of years old, but it shows a real talent for writing, playing and production.
Mr. P., you truly are someone who "paints" with loops. Artists take paint and make a portrait or picture...you take loops and create beautiful musical art. While I can build loops all day long, I'm not sure I could construct a song out of loops.
A tip of the hat on a job well done (thanks for including a few loops of mine in this wonderful song). The mix is really nice as well - great spacing.
This was a great tune to start off my day. Thanks for the peaceful moment. Welcome to the Loop by the way.
Bows.....
Thank you Bear for the kind words and they are encouragement for me to continue. I also used a few of your loops in I think one more of the posted Tracks. Elements of Time. This one was a bit buggerish to get to sounding good as some of the other loops fit but for some reason they kept going off key, kilter, and spacing. I finally get them fixed. Sometimes you have to cook, roast, saute', chew, twist...etc, some of the loops due to the way they were put together. Yours were awesome and had virtually no problem putting them in the layers and spacing...
You are most welcome to the peaceful moment. I had a swell time making this one. My Wife loves it better than the one I did for her. I may post that one later as it's a pre looperman loop filled song.
You and folks like you make my life a joy because I get to be a musical spirit.......

The mix is really nice as well.
I'm not sure if this is a genre you normally work in, but it definitely is a genre in which you excel. Absolutely brilliant work.

I just get my thoughts out in my music,and the more i listen to how others blend sounds,tones,timing etc,it gives me more ideas.
Taking me even further in to the inner magic of producing some Track, that can give feelings to the listener as was intended!
I reallly do thank you and all the other loopermen that find my music worth a listen!
