on THE CHOKE - Blood loss DEMO by thechockehold

Another stellar effort by you and another of your songs added to my favorites. I liked everything about this one, terrific dissonant piano work to the tension provided by the strings and all in minor chords to give it that unhappy feeling. I don't hear the messy bass referenced by Indieground, but I'm listening on headphones so there is that. Anyway, really good tune and I look forward to your jazz horror album as well. I hope all is well.

on Melodic Dubstep WIP - Need Feedback by Axion

So I am not a fan of dubstep, but if I ignore the stuff I don't like, this song is beautifully done. I also think the section from around :43 on with the piano is about as good as it gets. I understand dubstep, I am like the Deadpool character in that I just don't like those bass wobbles. Production is really solid and the underlying music is a 10/10 (gorgeous chord progressions). Again, I really liked what you did here, but I would love to hear this one without all the glitched bass stuff. But then it would be EDM or pop or something and that would defeat the purpose for you. Anyway, I ramble. Good solid start to what could be a real winner for you. I hope all is well.

Thank you for taking the time to listen and provide some feedback. I worked quite a bit to get the mixing and mastering down, so I'm glad you noticed. I'd love to experiment with new genres for this song and see what I can come up with. I can definitely see a chill or a pop version with vocals. Much appreciated.

on The Intro Free Beat by onlyhits

Nicely done. I made the mistake this morning of having the studio monitors cranked a bit and when that bass kicked in, it rattled the rafters, haha. I would imagine there are more than a few rappers who will want to jump all over this one. Thanks for posting. I hope all is well.

on Walking Dead by Burtsbluesboxes

Burton, how is it going? So, I moved to Florida and live right next to a big old pond with gators and snakes and mosquitoes and heat and humidity and this song absolutely set the mood for me. Love the sound from the new 4 string, looks like you crafted a winner. So good to hear something from you, especially one that sounds like my new life haha. I hope all is well.

Burtsbluesboxes replied 1st Nov 2019 - 6 years ago

Good to see you around Bear :D To the swamps of Florida from the dry deserts of Arizona, quite the change! I hear the weather is crazy there being surrounded on 3 sides by ocean. If if helps I have a swamp in my yard :)Going well, I've been very busy in the cigar box guitar world lately, not so much time for writing, recording and interacting on here as I'd like, trying to change that. FatKnuckldeFreddy performed on a 4 stringer with the same set up at Maine's inaugural cigar box guitar festival this summer. I had to make one!! Even got him to sign this one at my last luthier show. I just made a 2 string 34 inch scale cigar box bass with another Boneshaker box and my own 2 pole handwound pick up, recording soon to come.

on Paralyzed by Stretchfyb

So, one of the biggest reasons I've loved Looperman.com for the past 11 years is the sheer amount of hugely talented people who post their hard work. Now I've gone and discovered another talent that is just waiting for the world to find them. Terrific work on this one, everything from the lyrics to the vocals to the arrangement, to the mixing and mastering. I think you took a swing for the fences and hit this one out of the park. Absolutely outstanding work!! I hope all is well.

on 32nd Of July by Orlando51

I always know before I hit play on any of your songs that I am in for a real treat. This one is no exception, but it is quite exceptional. The first thing that jumps out is the clarity of the mix, dynamics, arrangement, and the musicianship. The violin just is absolutely the cherry on top of this musical sundae. You truly are a master of this medium, Leon. Absolutely beautiful. It will go nicely with this morning's sunrise. Thanks for that. I hope all is well.

Bear

Orlando51 replied 7th Jul 2021 - 5 years ago

So sorry for the very late reply Barry....I somehow overlooked your comment and I wasn't around here for a long time...it happens sometimes..:) In any case thank you so much for your kind words of support...means the world !

I hope life treats you well,
Leon

on Echos from the desert by Indieground

So I am not a fan of dub (I'm like the lead character in Deadpool), so I wasn't expecting much. However, this one was a really pleasant surprise. The percussion definitely stole the show (at least for me). I would definitely listen to more dub if it all sounded like this one. Really enjoyable tune, mixed properly, and served with just the right amount of spice :) Well done. I hope all is well.

Bear

Indieground replied 11th Oct 2019 - 6 years ago

Hey thx for you kinds words mate
It's very 70's reggae style i think, try to put some analog white punk vibes in it with a touche of Grace Jones...
Cheers

on Heaven on Space by DijamMusic

Maj, this is a really, really solid effort. Mix is just razor sharp and I really enjoyed the different transitions into the different sections. Outstanding effort, but I would expect nothing less from you. Well done. I hope all is well.

Bear

DijamMusic replied 1st Mar 2020 - 6 years ago

Hello Bear,
How are you doing?
I am very sorry for the delay Bear,
Time, you know how it is.
Thank you very much for your feedback and it is a great to hear from you.
I hope you're keeping well.
Thanks again.

on Maxav Biazan by MaxavBiazan

Great guitar riff (I always have had a weakness for great slide guitar). The only thing that was missing for me was some kind of a chord change/bridge or something. Don't get me wrong, I loved what you guys did, I just think there is so much more that you could do with this one. Anyway, that's just an old guy nitpicking if you know what I mean. Stellar work though. Thanks for sharing. I hope all is well.

Bear

MaxavBiazan replied 10th Oct 2019 - 6 years ago

Thanks, it's always very important to listen to opinions like yours.

on Cpt Alimand by HeathAlexander

Really nice work. It is a well thought out project that flowed extremely well. Lot of little subtle nuances in it that work nicely together. Loved that chord change you made on it. Enjoyable experience from start to finish. Production is spot on as well. Thanks for sharing. I hope all is well.

Bear

HeathAlexander replied 9th Oct 2019 - 6 years ago

Thank you. I spend a lot of time on my tracks. I appreciate your feedback.

on HAD THAT by vinnybee

"I already had that." F'in brilliant lyrics bro. This one is absolutely top shelf material. Outstanding effort from start to finish. This should be this year's breakup song. Really well done!! I hope all is well.

on smile a little bit prod Elijah Crouch and btw by elijahbcrouch

Well done brother. Nice chilled vibe, would definitely work well for a YouTube video. Keep churning out the hits. I hope all is well.

on Ghost in my Guitar by Neomorpheus

Ah, Neo, as usual your work on this one is a master's class in playing, composing, and production. Seriously brother, it's like listening to Mayer or maybe Jonny Lang or one of the other greats. They always say the tones in the hands and in this case, they are so right. Beautifully performed. Thanks for sharing. I hope all is well.

Happy Halloween.

Bear

Neomorpheus replied 10th Oct 2019 - 6 years ago

Wow that's quite a compliment Bear, I certainly appreciate the kind words man. Tone is always that Holy Grail we are constantly striving for. I was purposely thinned it out a bit more than I normally use in this, to give some what of a twang. But still wanted it to sound good. I actually use two distinct guitar tracks in this with entirely different set ups.

ShortBusMusic 31st Jul 2019 11:29 - 7 years ago

on I Was Born To Die by ClickbaitCabaret

So this is really good work. We go to the Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios Orlando each year and I can definitely hear this one playing as we enter one of the haunted houses. Excellent work. You should be proud of this one. Keep up the great work. I hope all is well.

Bear

on NEVER WANNA GO featuring Michael Mayo Mastered by laurentwirz

Laurent, you are one talented bunch of musicians. Drum work is so good, as is all of the rest of the instrumentation. Composition is really spectacular, especially the use of Patrica's vocals. There is nothing to criticize here, just a great display of musical ability. If you guys ever take your act on the road, let me know where you'll be playing. I would love to see it live. Well done. I hope all is well.

on Ancient Mesopotamian - Sumerian Music - Kiestyle by KiestyleProductions

Stellar work here! I love music that takes me on a journey, that takes me to a special place, where I can simply close my eyes and I'm sent there.

You paint a lovely picture with this one. Mix is spot on, the composition is as good as it gets, and the dynamics are really special.

This is a winner. Thanks for posting it for all of us to enjoy. Now I'm going to hit play again and go for a ride. I hope all is well.

Bear

KiestyleProductions replied 31st Jul 2019 - 7 years ago

Hahaha bear, thank you so much for this reply, it put a smile on my face reading it. I'm glad you think the mix is good, I don't do a lot of cinematic tracks, mostly trap so this was fairly new for me. :)

Thank you so much for your time and the listens, glad I could create a whole vibe to pîcture yourself in a different scenario

I wish you much luck with your projects as well!

on Lonely Jedi Final Version by killenkenobi

Another great effort from you. Love the tone of your voice, has that nice warm buttery feel to it, with great pitch. This is another song with just the right amount of accompaniment, allowing the vocals to shine through. Lyrics are really impressive as well. I enjoyed this one from start to finish. Thanks for posting and sharing your talents. I hope all is well.

on David Naughten by Nodog

Robbie, nothing short of spectacular work here. I absolutely love folk music - used to attend the annual old time fiddlers festival in Shoshone, Wyoming and I would hear music similar to this. Great stuff, great lyrics, great guitar work, great song. Great job!!!!! I really enjoyed this one. Thanks for posting. I hope all is well.

Bear

Nodog replied 29th Jul 2019 - 7 years ago

Hey Bear you made me smile i had almost forgotten about this track i stay in Austria now being a far travelled Scot i dont think ill be going to Scotland anytime soon but i also love folk and bluegrass and the blues. I miss the old bar folk nights i used to go to every week too much beer but i miss the music and the camaraderie :)

on Jazz Hound by Nodog

Robbie, I don't know how the heck I missed your music up to this point. That's the bad news. The good news is I discovered you and now have a new favorite to listen to. I love jazz and this one is just off the chain good. Terrific keyboard work from start to finish. Best of luck with the heart surgery. This getting old ##### :) Anyway, I'm going to head off and give another of your tunes a listen. Really well done. I hope all is well.

on Believe in yourself by crucethus

Fast fingers on that synth, holy cow!! Pretty realistic sounding and what is really amazing is you did it all live, no overdubs. It is always a master's class in performance, composition, and production in your neck of the woods. I am always left pretty much speechless when I hear your work. A definite 10 out of 10 on this one and straight to faves. Well done brother. Keeping the bar high. I hope all is well.

Bear

crucethus replied 21st Aug 2019 - 7 years ago

Thanks so much, Bear. Very Very kind words. I appreciate that so much. I hope you are feeling well these days, and settling into a new place in FLA. keep on keeping ehh!

on SIMPLE BLUES by laurentwirz

First let me echo my friend Danke's sentiment that there are definitely not enough blues on this site. That said, holy #####, this is fantastic. I spent quite a bit of time wandering the bars/music scene in Austin, TX and this is the kind of music I used to listen to and fell in love with. Great guitar styling, beautiful buttery tone, definitely know your way around a fret board. Outstanding effort on this one by everyone involved. I absolutely loved everything about it. You guys should take this act on the road!! I hope all is well.

Bear

laurentwirz replied 26th Jul 2019 - 7 years ago

Hey Bear!

Wow your words are soul balm to our eyes reading your kind comment.

on Lo-fi Noir Chicago Detective Theme by thechockehold

Another masterful 38 seconds of absolute bliss :) Like many of the others, I would really love to hear a complete piece of yours. If you have a link to some of your catalog it would be great if you could post it. Again, quality, quality, quality work. Thanks for sharing it with all of us. I hope all is well.

on Bar Gig Boogie by thechockehold

There are some really great musicians on this site, and I would definitely rank you right up there with some of the most talented I've had the pleasure of listening to. My God man, you can flat out play and it is such a pleasure to hear talent like yours. Sorry that guy didn't follow through on his payment, but his loss is our gain. Thanks for posting this gem. I'm off to give your other track a listen. Added to favorites, and since I missed you before, welcome to Looperman. I hope all is well.

on Viva La Vida by midiman007

Wow, from the first note this one had my undivided attention. Guitar work is stellar as usual, but man the production and arrangement is a master's class in how to do things the right way. This has that Santana vibe to it, which is something I really love. I just bought a PRS searching for that Carlos tone (I'm still searching, haha), and it looks like you have it mastered. Are you using one of your Strats for this or your Les Paul? Anyway, outstanding effort. Really, really good work. I hope all is well.

Bear

midiman007 replied 24th Jun 2019 - 7 years ago

Thanks Bear as always great to hear from you and thanks so much for the positive feedback. As for your questions. Yes it's my Strat. I have not played the Les Paul in ages.
The Strat is the most versatile guitar in the world. It can sound like anything. This Strat is about 2 years old it's an American standard all stock. As always I hope all is well with you and your family.

Peace

on Henry Pascal feat Stepa K - Nothing Left by HenryPascal

Nicolo, really nice work here. The choice on the chord progression is really interesting, it gives the piece a melancholy feel with the dissonant notes combined with the vocals. I did a song with these vocals and came up with something completely different....actually like your version much better. Mix sounds nice to these worn out ears. Well done my friend. I hope all is well.

Bear

HenryPascal replied 26th May 2019 - 7 years ago

Leave me speechless... you were so sincere... do you really like my version more than yours?

In a (virtual) place like this, where everyone try to be always more (better) than others, your sincerity is a gift that I greatly appreciate.

You made my day a better day.

Nicolo'
