on Story of my heart by JasonCroft
Hey so Jason is the name haha.

Alright now this is a powerful piece. Piano really drives home the emotion. I love what you have but I have a suggestion. Aside from the synth I feel like the reverse crash transition can be improved.
Here's my suggestion:
- Lower the volume a bit first it really cut through my ears lol.
- Fade out the last few milliseconds of it where this is a sharp increase in the amplitude of the waveform. I cant tell you how much that all depends on the sound itself.
- Add a heavy reveerb. Depending on the controls add lots of wetness, dampness, and extend decay time. Size, hi cut, and lo cut should also be altered but I cant give you the details on that since it depends.
Of course its just a suggestion and I would like to give you an idea of how it sounds but I do not have any tracks uploaded that posses it. But I can send you a wav file if you are interested so u can get the idea of what Im talking about.
But anyway thats just a lot of detail for a small part of the track. The majority of it sounds exceptional and very powerful.

on Marnie Grant - An Alleyway In London by MarnieG
I really like the combo of pizzicato then bells with piano. You did a really good job of conveying the emotion. I can just visualize like a midday setting in any urban city.

Fantastic job I really liked it.

on Just Let It Go - Instrumental - Vocal Ready by BradoSanz
Very relaxing and soothing. Brings back some memories.

Thanks for sharing it "bare" as I typically enjoy music without vocals.

Not to suggest that you shouldn't add vocals but sometimes music can speak to the listener as well.

Great work on this.

I'm thinking about making it a generic love-song for one version and then make it more tailored to how I want it to be, in part because I want to start selling my tracks for trailers and movies and stuff (the generic lovesong would go here). I've made connections with someone in the industry who says my stuff has a lot of potential to make money so I want to try it out :3

on Constellation by Evisma
Wow I have been blessed with an opportunity to listen to this absolute gem. This is beyond amazing and professional. Not only are you a talented musician but you are phenomenal at mixing. This track sounds awesome in headphones. You pretty much immersed the listener into your world. I am just floating around in this maze of musical magic. Love every second from the guitar to the bass to the piano to that "throat singing" effect.

What a journey! Great work!

on Its My Time by Emolyte
Heyyy I really like this. I like the emotion in this track, the controlled anger. Monotone rapping always kills it for me but this is anything but. I especially like the soft choir with the hard vocals. There also some really cool effects and transition effects.
The mix could use a little improvement on the mid to high end. Flow is solid. But this track now put you in my radar especially with that unique style of yours. I gotta keep a look out forr stuff you put out there. You style reminds me of Hollywood Undead if you've heard them.

Excellent work here.
Emolyte
Emolyte replied 21st Nov 2015 - 8 years ago
Monotone kills it for me as well, and I try to add as much as I can to make sure my vocals arent that way. The mix i agree needs to be tightened, but I'm glad I am now on your list haha. And Hollywood Undead is one of my Favs, so to be likened to them I really appreciate. :) Keep on the look out for more

on Elephant by Orlando51
Oh wow man this is outrageously awesome haha!

Now this is my type of music. I didn't know if there were many orchestral cinematic composers here on the loop but I think I might've just heard the best!

Phenomenal job I'm seriously blown away by this track!

A unique adventure I thoroughly enjoyed it.

on Blue Sky Instrumental by NitramBeatS
Agree with the others. Its got that laid back chill feel to it. But I also get that East Coast style hip hop with some soul vibe as well. Love what you got going here but it sounds like it need something laced on top like Cru said maybe a guitar or sax.
Or maybe the whole point is to give that feel and let someone drop some vocals to fill it in. Either way this track is real smooth!

on Nature Haunts with Pete Tebar by DanGoldstein
I like your musical vision for that abstract painting. One could see it as something of a more uplifting and colorful painting but you guys shared the same view I had on it. Something eerie, unknown, dark, almost like a cave.

Great work on this and great use of the effects pads and synths to create a vivid atmosphere. Very creative I enjoyed listening to it.
DanGoldstein
DanGoldstein replied 17th Nov 2015 - 8 years ago
i could see a more optimistic track for this painting. but it seems to work on some levels. I appreciate your comment a lot. feel like I still want one more session on this one. here is start of a forum thread on my site for contest. http://audiosparksforart.com/forums/topic/november-2015-contest-updates/

on princess in white lace COLLAB with STOHGS by DanGoldstein
I know this some time ago but the beginning of this track just grabbed me and the rest of the track pulled me in.

With the picture and the music I see this lady in the white dress slowly walking among a city destroyed and empty. I see the picture in grey and black and choppy. She is wandering around like a tiny glimmering hope among the endless rubble and darkness. Then the very cool kind of like a growl transitions to the drums. I love the kicks by the way. And here I see the lady ascending up as reconstruction for a new future begins.

I love what you created here Dan truly captivating.

on Sadness Of Darkness by JasonCroft
Wow yeah this is definitely my style of music. Im loving this track a ton. The pads sound like theyre crying. Real drives home the feeling of emptiness and depression. Love it.
At 18 sec though that chord sounds off-key. May be just me. But other than that this is an instant fave and DL!

Awesome job on this.

on Warrior Soul by wordybum
Delivering the punchlines, the knockout blows haha love your jabs you got flexibility in you rhymes. Love the hook as well.

Hey you think you can send me an mp3 of the collab you did with SJW just the way you got it right now? Every time I play that song it feels likesomething is missing and that's your part plus I really like it the way you guys have it now.

wordybum replied 4th Nov 2015 - 8 years ago
Dude, thanks so much for the listen and the great compliments. I fucking loved rhyming over this. I built the best months ago and it finally started talking to me, so I talked back. I'm going to open up the SJW track so people can download it. I've gotten a lot of great feedback on it.

on Remixed Seeing Whats Next by Darklighter
Had to do a quick look up of the original to see what I'm comparing against...

And wow man I really like this new flavor and pace you put on this track. It seems like a lot of work went into making this remix. I felt that the synths that came in at :50 sec felt a little flat on the high end but I loved the melody. Very addictive. I like that little fling pop bell lol I don't know what to call it directly after the synth. That was a nice touch. Very creative track I enjoyed it.

Props!

on Fire 7 by Risk
Hey this is pretty good I like the chopping of the brass. Bells are cool as well although like Boogie said it needs a nice mixdown to clean up the frequencies but given that you don't have the files anymore that is unfortunate. This track has the potential to be a full hard hitting track you hear in mainstream hip-hop (the actual beats are the only aspect of mainstream hip hop I enjoy for the most part).

Really like the overall dark feel to it. Great work.
Risk
Risk replied 4th Nov 2015 - 8 years ago

on Dancing To The War Drums by crucethus
Been wanting to comment on this track for like 5 days now but I couldn't. Like I seriously couldn't cuz I cant go 15 seconds on looperman without my browser crashing.

Anyways I gotta say man around the 1:30 mark where the piano chords and the voices and distant gunshots came in there came about a eerie and powerful feeling that gave me the goosebumps. Not many tracks do that. Then at the same time that transitioned to a more uplifting and bouncy tracks. It created this nice contrast.

Great job I really liked it!

crucethus replied 6th Nov 2015 - 8 years ago
Omar

I am deeply humbled by your response. My goal was to make a house tune that would stop people in their tracks and have to think about war.
Your comment about the piano part giving you goosebumps gave me goosebumps. That's what I wanted for this tune.
I appreciate your comments

on Nowhere to go Instrumental by Nextgentracks
Well now house aint my thing but I really like what Im hearing so Ill chip in best I can.

I love that sidechain-like effect on the synths in the beginning. Piano is playful and flows nicely. The breakdown to the guitars is really cool and speaking of cool those guitars juggled with each other nicely. Only thing I suggest is it mess around with the panning of the different guitars. They are all clustered in the middle or real close to it. One way is keeping the primary melody in the middle while panning the least prominent one like 30% either way. The methods are limitless and whatever suits your tastes is the route to go.

And those drum transitions are awesome! Really professional work on those.

The crash at 1:30 was a bit sharp in my ears. You can also see the waveform sticking out. My suggestion is compression with instant attack and quick release. But since that kind of kills the transience you can do it via parallel compression.

Anyway beside those very subtle issues this track is very uplifting and playful and overall sounds really good. I can listen to this all day and honestly I'm surprised no one commented yet.

Take my opinions with a grain of salt as I'm not a pro and house isn't my thing but thought I give this deserving track some feedback.

Great work and keep at it.

on Journey to Mars by cellardoor
I was waiting for the day you were going to pick the mic up. Man you are progressing quick. Your voice is definitely shining like the bright morning sun.
This track has also got that vintage feel. Don't know if that's what you intended in the mix but it sure worked out.
I get the feeling that your a generation or two above me with your music but hey doesn't mean I don't enjoy it.

on Funky Hip Hop Beat - Oneironaut by gdbcrew
Nice real clean work. Like that background elongated clap that comes in every few seconds. The violin melody sounds really good. The crash sounds out of place though like it doesn't belong in the track. To me the level is too high and its panned too much to one side but that's the only thing I feel like can be improved.

Other than that the track is well constructed and is of high quality. The washed out synth solo at the 3 min mark is a nice little switch up. Its definitely a refreshing taste to hip-hop.

Awesome job on this track.

on Atlantic Drifts Music by Danke lyrics by Wordy Bum by wordybum
Well I faved and DLed this track and I feel guilty if I didn't leave some feedback as well lol.

But damn man Im becoming a fan of your work. Thing is for me, if you have a good/unique flow and clear/powerful delivery but awful lyrics (kind of like mainstream hip hop for the most part nowadays) I can listen to it maybe once or twice but I quickly lose interest. But you my friend have got all three top notch. Your overall style and skill is up there on the loop in terms of the rap department.

You used the third verse in this track for that collab with SJW but I love it in both cuz of the different emotion and speed in the delivery. Plus the lyrics are super clever, deep, and very rhythmic. Its almost like even though your saying the same thing the difference in the delivery and music give it its own uniqueness its own story.

Excellent Work!

thanks so much again for the support and kind words, Omar. I've been getting tons of great feedback as of late and it just validates all of the hard work I've been putting in.

ever since i found Looperman i have re-imagined a few verses on different beats. it really is so fun to attack a new track with a verse i know forwards and backwards. it allows me to really get into the role and nail the verse.

on Hit the Happy by cellardoor
Hey this is a really fun and happy track. The melodies are playful and the piano does well in keeping the track and all the different synths together.

Really cool piece especially since you played all the parts. I can hear some of the synths slightly off but honestly I don't really see it as a flaw, rather a genuine music style derived from very slight human error.

I also find that some mixing to an extent along the creative musical process as an advantage because it helps to create a clearer musical picture. But in the end it all depends on the individual.

Great work!

on Naked Angels by TayaliJeffrey
Well Ill start by saying that Enzotic did a great job with the mix, loving what he did with those hats.

But whats a mix without the music in the first place. That's where you come in. Loving the synth stabs and the synth buildup at around the two minute mark. Theres a lot of interesting elements in this track that keep it flowing really smooth.

You should try mixing your own tracks. Theres a level of creativity and music behind it and you seem to be very creative with your music so if you hang with it and learn the aspects of mixing you could add a new dimension to your tracks. Just a suggestion.

But anyway sweet track!
