on Kurosawa ft MStokes and Tumbleweed by AllenV

Michael Stokes is a freaking genius. Then you toss in your guitar work (a master's class in how to play one). Then for good measure, you incorporate Ed's intro....holy cow, this is so good!!!!!!!!

Seriously one of the best tracks on the Loop. I have to agree with the Robin Trower reference from Dave - he would be proud of this one for sure.

UNBELIEVABLE!!!!

AWESOME!!!!

\m/ \m/

Bear

By the way, if you need a guitar, I've got several lying around that are used to being abused instead of played, haha. They wouldn't know how to act in the hands of a master.

AllenV replied 4th Mar 2012 - 14 years ago

Thank you so much for the comments Bear,These are some of my last tracks I'll be able to work on for a while.

Not to be a downer cause' this is not the forum but I have had to sell all my guitars,I lost my car and job and had to take care of my family but my father is helping me with transportation so life will get better.
Any new tracks you here will be from previously recorded guitar parts.

I appreciate your comments and this site,it has changed my life for the better and I'm sure God will provide.

Thanks again my friend.

on Press The Flesh - Twanna1 by AllenV

Definitely two of my favorite Looper Super Stars here....love the trippy feel to this one. I just ordered a Zoom G9.2tt pedal. I can only hope to get close to the tone you have.

My God you have magic in your hands.

It goes well with Twanna's musical genius.

This one is definitely a 10/10.

Bear

AllenV replied 23rd Jan 2012 - 14 years ago

I wish you luck with the Zoom,I don't have to tell you that sometimes you have to spend the time to get it,I call it "turning a lot of knobs for a long time"..and then saving that patch.
A couple years ago when I joined the Loop and started recording at home I wasn't sure what to do cause I'm from the old school of cassette.My computer is old and couldn't handle many recording software programs and neither could I handle them so I bought a Tascam digital porta studio...I could deal with knobs and the Zoom,well I just came out of the stereo out into the recorder.There are a lot of headaches with my primitive methods Bear but it gets the job done and I do get to turn more knobs..lol.I do like mixing the master live with the recorder but I do use Audacity for small edits and final mp3 conversions.
And Yes,Twanna is fantastic!She's not only a great vocal talent,she produces every thing we do together as well as her own...she truly is genius.

on Chunky and Funky - FreeRadical Collab by AllenV

What a great way to start my day. Nick is a genius (we all know that) but when you put your phenomenal guitar work in the mix, well it goes to a whole new level.

SMOKIN!!!!!!!!!!

You probably had to cool off the frets a bit after this one. Shredding at its finest, because I can hear every single note you played. And that is the way it should be :)

Bravo gents and a tip of the hat to Pedro for his piano loop....man that guy can play.

Bear

AllenV replied 23rd Jan 2012 - 14 years ago

Thanks Bear!
If you read my reply to NUADA you'll see how much credit Nick deserves,I actually wasn't sure how to do this with out the whole track to play too and Nick was like "Do what you want...whatever will work" so I sent him this crazy track of me playing to the same loop for several minutes...it's kinda funny cause I had know idea what he was going to do with it until the finished song!

Thanks again Bear!

on Herbies demo by vortexsurfer

Very nice treatment on the vocals, mix is really clear...vox sitting just right. Well constructed and extremely entertaining. Outstanding effort. I'm a big jazz fan and this one hit the spot! Thanks for sharing.

Bear

vortexsurfer replied 20th Jan 2012 - 14 years ago

Many thanks for your time and review, very much apreciated

on Lies featuring Amelia June by RichieWinn

Richie, what a wonderful treatment of Amelia June's vox. I love everything about this, from the guitar solo, to the mix, to the pacing (wow, just brilliant) to the beautiful chord progressions. I've heard just about every interpretation of her pella, but this one ranks right up there at the top.

Superb in every aspect, and in every way possible.

Bravo my friend. And a huge thanks for the download, straight to my all time favorites.

Bear

RichieWinn replied 16th Jan 2012 - 14 years ago

Hey Bear

Good to hear from you. Thanks for the comments, particularly about the "pacing". I wanted it to be a bit "sleepy" but with plenty of interest to keep the listener engaged. I had lots of fun puting this together and thanks for the link on your track to the acapella on Mixter.

Best regards and thanks again.

Richie

on Wanna Be In Love by FullCapicityMuzic

Well young lady, this is really nice work...better than nice - your vocals are absolutely flawless. Move over Beyonce/Rhianna/et al, and make room for a real artist!!!!!

I have to agree with Dave, but for different reasons. This would be a fantastic song if it was done with real guitars (I'm not a big fan of the synthesized guitars). I think if this one was done in a studio with real session players it would be a hit record. Something for your collab partner to think about.

Can you imagine how good this could be with Planet on bass, Bilbozo or Rei or AllenV or MackMan or Randy or any other number of great guitar players that are on this site doing the guitar work, and then maybe Buddrumming on drums??????? Ohhh that would be fine.

Anyway, sorry if it seems I'm nitpicking but this one really has major, major potential. It has all of the necessary elements to be a hit record. It would just be fantastic if you and your collab partner could wander into a studio and do it up right.

Great song though, and again, your vocal work is spectacular.

Happy New Year

Bear

FullCapicityMuzic replied 3rd Jan 2012 - 14 years ago

Planet...Bilbozo/Rei/AllenV/MackMan/Randy...writing this down :-).

I really want this one to be nitpicked, cuz I definetely think it has potentials, um hm potentials, lol.

Thanks Mr. Bear and happy new year to you too.

on The Game by DJJoker

In this era of digital music, there is nothing like hearing an "unplugged" performance. This is really fantastic work. Less is sometimes more, and this song proves that.

I thoroughly enjoyed this. Thanks for posting.

Bear

DJJoker replied 21st Dec 2011 - 14 years ago

Thank you for your kind words.

on TomaHawk by Filaofsoul

Top shelf work Fila. The great thing about your music is you never disappoint. Loved the Rhodes as the anchor for this one. Very nice mix as well.

Top notch as usual Fila.

Bear

Filaofsoul replied 24th Jan 2012 - 14 years ago

Hey Bear! Just want to thank you for the kind comments this one took about 5 months to finish cause I wanted to get it right since I did not use much of a bass line. Smoothing things out for the next one. Hope to have done in a couple of weeks. Take care! Your Bud Fila

ShortBusMusic 19th Dec 2011 16:05 - 14 years ago

on Funky Mama by Filaofsoul

Looks like time has only made you better. You know how to lay down a bassline my friend and this track proves that. Wonderful vibe and a great way to start my day. Hope all is well.

Bear

Filaofsoul replied 21st Dec 2011 - 14 years ago

Man it is a pleasure to hear from you. Everything is great. Glad you enjoyed the two tunes. Yea I am still looping. Always wondered where you were but I always had that classic of yours DAWN which turned out to be the most popular and played on my CD that I finally produced and distributed. Don't forget to pop it in when the Humming Birds come back so they can enjoy it also LOL. Take care my friend and I will be checking you out on a regular basis nice to see some of my original looperman buddies back on the loop.

on Subz 4 Stringz by DjFitzz

BAD AZZ!!!!!! Hahaha, man this is stellar work. It might be a little repetitive, but I think that's part of the charm. The bass synth is just about as nasty as anything I've heard in a long, long time.

Where's my favorite button?????

Seriously great dubstep my friend.

Bear

DjFitzz replied 16th Dec 2011 - 14 years ago

Haha I'm glad you liked it, thanks for the sample dude! Hopefully I'll have a finished product by the end of next week =P

ShortBusMusic 16th Dec 2011 03:14 - 14 years ago

on Island far away by conohamaru

Man this is outstanding work.....not sure why 40 people downloaded the track but only 3 thought they should comment. Like Jody said, the bass is a little too far up in the mix, but other than that, this one is smokin'!!!!!

Great work.

Bear

conohamaru replied 17th Dec 2011 - 14 years ago

Thnx. Just Like Jody and yourself I agree. That was something that was just a little bit of of my range to fix.

ShortBusMusic 15th Dec 2011 16:18 - 14 years ago

on Ghost by LenaLannergren

I'm not sure why this one hasn't received any comments, it's really a great track. It has an epic feel to it. Loved your vocal work (I always do).

My only critique would be the mix is a bit too "dry" for me, but that's just a matter of personal taste - or I need some new speakers for Christmas, haha.

Absolutely wonderful work Lena. Bravo.

Bear

LenaLannergren replied 29th Dec 2011 - 14 years ago

Hey Bear! Sorry for the late reply to your comment. I truly appreciate it. I know the mix is really dry... a little experiment since I always am heavy on the reverb...lol. A swedish musician made a remix of it http://soundcloud.com/busstop18/ghost-04 with more reverb since he also thought this to be lacking... so no need to buy new speakers :D
Thank you :)
Lena

on The Sea of Gladness by Planetjazzbass

Dave,

This is simply brilliant. I love the innocence of the vocals and your respectful treatment of them. This is wonderful from start to finish. It brought back memories of when my daughters were that age.

Thanks for that.

And thanks to your niece as well.

Bear

ShortBusMusic 11th Dec 2011 16:35 - 14 years ago

on The Flight by Zenia

You have a really nice voice, great tonal quality, and your range is pretty spectacular. This was a really enjoyable listen. I look forward to more from you in the future. Thanks for posting this and sharing it with all of us.

Bear

on Why Cant You Love Me by FullCapicityMuzic

Once again you leave me speechless......

Amazing, amazing, amazing....have I said amazing yet?

Since any appropriate adjectives have left the building I call my mind, all I can do is stand and applaud.

Bear

FullCapicityMuzic replied 19th Dec 2011 - 14 years ago

mr. bear, thanks much! i appreciate it.

ShortBusMusic 10th Dec 2011 17:35 - 14 years ago

on Leave me alone by RichieWinn

Top shelf material here, wow. Great backing track Richie, really well played, and then when you put MIME4E's vocals in with your great instrumental, well, it moves into another level.

A great collaboration between two of the Loop's finest. I need a big fat "FAVORITE" button right about now, haha.

Well done!!!

Bear

RichieWinn replied 28th Dec 2011 - 14 years ago

Thanks Bear

Again my apologies for not responding sooner. Thank you so much for the comments - I really appreciate them.

on View From Within by TonyKnight

Hey Tony,

I really enjoyed the chilled vibe on this one. It is definitely cinematic and would work well in a movie. I really liked your guitar work on this one, very nice bass line too.

Outstanding effort.

Bear

ShortBusMusic 9th Dec 2011 18:29 - 14 years ago

on By Myself by Twanna1

Every time I sit down to listen to one of your songs, I am star struck. Everything from your phrasing to your control, perfect pitch.....you are what I call a "singer's singer." If anyone is interested in how to do this the right way, they simply need to only stop by and listen to your work.

The bass line is amazing on this one, and the guitar solo, well, fantastic. Absolutely flawless.

But that should be no surprise because you continually set the bar very, very high.

Bravo.

Bear

ShortBusMusic 9th Dec 2011 16:34 - 14 years ago

on Give It Up Ft MuzicIzMee4Ever by CONEYISLANDRECORDS

Well done Coney. Definitely a stellar effort. A bit hip hop, a bit RnB, but a whole lot enjoyable. I would love to hear a rapper on this to see if you can take it to the next level. If not, it's pretty amazing as it is.

Bear

ShortBusMusic 8th Dec 2011 16:41 - 14 years ago

on Estrofas Erroneas by Vicen

Vicen, great pop song here. Your voice is a perfect match for the music. Thanks for posting the translation as well. While it is nice to know what you are singing, your music is universal in its appeal.

A very nice job and an enjoyable listen.

Bear

Vicen replied 8th Dec 2011 - 14 years ago

Thank you very much. I appreciate your words. It's always nice to know that like a song.

ShortBusMusic 8th Dec 2011 16:30 - 14 years ago

on Military Song by RichieWinn

Man you have such great guitar chops.....timing, tone, everything just impeccable. The bass line on this is stellar.

This track is radio ready, a great track to listen to while driving down the highways of the US.

Beautiful work Richie, and a tip of the hat to Farisha for the great vocal work.

Bear

RichieWinn replied 28th Dec 2011 - 14 years ago

Hey Bear

Just checking through my tracks reviews and noticed I haven't responded to your comments here. My apologies.

I always appreciate your take on my work and particularly comments on the individual bits that make it up. Lots of acoustic guitar on this track (Ovation Celebrity) and most of it the old fashioned way using a mic (old school!) Farisha is such a talent - we need more quality like this.

Thanks again for taking the time to listen and post a review. Appreciate it.

Regards

Richie

on OLD SKOOL JAZZ DEMO by yeshintae

Yesh, you have to finish this one bro. Great chilled vibe that once again shows why you are one of the Loops great producers. Old school, new school, you can do it all.

I'll check back frequently to see if you get it completed. Like the others, wish I had my "Favorite" button back!!!

Bear

yeshintae replied 12th Dec 2011 - 14 years ago

on The Unbegotten-ORIGINAL by Twanna1

Ms. Twanna, this is fantastic. My oh my, what a wonderful vibe you have created here, beautiful mix with everything sitting so nicely. The bass line is just wicked good.

Another fantastic effort from one of the Loop's finest. I hope you have been well. Thanks for sharing this one.

Bear

Twanna1 replied 8th Dec 2011 - 14 years ago

Hello...hello...hello Mr. Bear. Thank you so much for stopping by and paying a visit:) I so appreciate you sentiments. As I mentioned to Dylan (SpellJammer) there is a REMIX of this track with bg vox: http://www.looperman.com/tracks/detail/103147

The speaking part is still there, but it is now a "call & response" type thing.

Hope you are having a great week.

on Lemon Curd demo ft Kruus by Kikajon

And I thought Slap Johnson was the only one with talented kids....you showed me, haha. Great job by both of you. As Michael said, the fabulous Kikajon's are one of the best acts on the Loop. Loved the guitar battle at the end....EPIC rock and roll.

Outstanding effort and kudos to both of you. Keep rocking you two.

Bear

Kikajon replied 7th Dec 2011 - 14 years ago

Hi Bear and thank you very much for the flattering review. I'm actually speechless but I can promise that there will come more from the two of us.

on Rikarakasaw by TonyRay

Outstanding vocals and one of the best bass lines I've heard in a long while. I saw John thought the vox needed to come up a bit....they sounded pretty good on my system.

Very nice work from start to finish. It had me bobbin' and weavin' with the beat.

Bear
