Thanks Richie,

Your stuff is really good also. I was trying not to mess up her vocals too much so I tried to make them fit with out time shifting and changing the key. Also it might have gotten effected when I imported in in to cubase that was set at 24 bits not 16 bit

cheers! Thanks for checking the track out. Glad you like it :D

Wow thank you very much! :)

Thank you. Nice to see, that there are also some other, who like those acoustic pieces beyond the lots of rap or R&B-pieces on looperman (which sometimes are quite nice too ...)
What next? Feel free to listen to my other tracks. I also want to upload more tracks and loops ...

Greetings

Hiya Richie my friend, hope all is well with you? Thanx for the positive review mate. Yup I'm hoping someone picks this up and helps me take it that lil bit further! Really appreciate you dropping by and taking time to listen & comment. Thanx again.

Thanks for listening and commenting Richie.

Thank you, Richie – your review is much appreciated. I am trying very hard to get an "in the room" live feeling on the tracks and it feels great that you think we've succeeded. (There's only an Atlantic ocean between me and the rest of the band).
Again, thanks for listening and reviewing.

Thanks a bunch Richie! I'm happy you enjoyed it. :D

Hi ya Richie,

Sorry its been awhile since I have posted anything. I was awaiting on another person to do the lyrics/vocals to this song last fall, but he ended up being too busy with college studies. So Erik and his father took up the challenge and made it happen. I am very happy with the way it turned out. I had it professionally mastered as well. I have other tunes started, just not finished yet. Takes me awhile as I am 'old'. Lol

This was basically a 150bpm song. As for drums, I usually use betamonkeymusic.com drum samples. Sometimes when a song is played fast, it is easier to get a nice steady beat going. The guitar lead parts don't have to be played fast either, to produce a good effect.

So I'll put up some more tunes as I can whether vocals included or not. Thanks for your glowing review and am glad you enjoyed it.

It kind of caught me by surprise that you laughed, but I wasn't offended, laughter is good for the soul.

Thanks Richie :-)

Hiya Richie. Hope all is good with you & yours my friend? Thanx so much for the review. I'm really honured & humbled when such talented Loopers as your-self comment on my work. I was really chuffed with how this track worked out. I like the guitar riff you mention and will probably use it again. It is kinda sweet eh ? I often struggle with vocals but on this one they seemed to just fit around everything else. I really do appreciate you taking time out to drop by to my lil corner of the Loop and have a listen. Peace, Love & Justice to you maate.

Thanks for your comment,
I just love making music. One thing, I just don't know anything about it. It's just something i feel like. So what do you mean by saying arrangement or breakdowns?

Hey Richie thanks man!...actually I was sort of taking a leaf out of your book.I have EZDrummer/SuperiorDrummer which I used here..definitely worth getting back into them to get that 'real' drum sound..I'd been using Stylus RMX a lot which is great but doesn't have that real stick on skin sound (not that any drums have skins on them now! lol).....Amazingly we are in the same country! lol..so anything is possible...God can you imagine how cool it would be if many of Looperman's muso's lived in the same city..damn we could get one hot unit together!...always a pleasure to have you stop by mate!..cheers from Zap,Slap and Dave (sounds like that terrible 70's band!lol) :)

Hey Richie...thanks for stoppong by and checking the track out..I appreciate the comment man and i love the stuff you abd P.E. are putting out...i got a lot of different ideas i'm trying and a surplus of things ill probably just turn into loops and share them here....Talk to you soon

Peace

Richie, thanks for the kind words. Coming from someone that's worked on a few things with Patricia, it's well received and appreciated. Her voice is spectacular and shines on her own. I just wanted to take a shot and I had loads of fun making this.

Ah, Mr Winn. How good of you to stop in. Yes, Breakbeats a bit of a difficult genre to figure out as there are lots of different varietys of it. I personally just go with the philosophy that if it aint got a four to the floor beat pattern & it's electronic, then it's breakbeat. Or it could be 2 step, or garage, or whatever lol.
I'm glad you managed to find a moment to tune in and check it out.

Awww, thank you Richie :-)

Hey Richie..thanks mate!..aahhh yes the ol' Wes double stops,takes me back to when I was a kid and had a few guitar lessons,and I asked the guy how can I sound like Wes and Kenny Burrell...he replied "about 20 years practice wouldn't hurt!" lol..but he did show me how to do double stops!..if only I had taken his advice and put guitar nose to grindstone..sigh...man I haven't had a Bundy and coke in decades,one would put me on my arse! lol...thanks for listening mate,much appreciated. cheers Dave :)

I'm glad you like it Richie.
I tried to recreate that 80's sound and feel, adapted to our days. Stephanie's acapella suggested that to me.
The instrumental "guitar solo" and the arrangement in general comes as idea from "Bigmouth Strikes Again" by The Smiths: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EYLmptz_r_o.

Thanks.

I had Madness on the head while I did this song. I'm glad you liked it. I also find it funny.
