on Neural Surgery by DJKranK
Yeah, I can see what Toxic's sayin about the old skool vibe.
I also dig how the bass on this gives it a nice, dark quality. And the way you've got the synth soundin all hovery is keen too!
Oh, and I dunno if it's just me, but @ around 1:01 there're a few crackle sounds comin out. Dunno if that's intentional or not though. Just wanted to point it out if they weren't. Thanks for sharing. Later on!
on My Beat - Mike&Angel by MikeandAngel
Hey mate,
completely disregard my last review. I made the mistake of starting another track and then playing this one. Haha opps, my bad. The below still applies though.
Okies play 2 now (new player window)...
Anyways, this track was pretty sweet though I didn't much care for the voc-sams. Beyond that it was jammin. Later on!
on Known Alone by amar
Play 2 now...
And it happened again. So I dunno what's going on. Maybe you could try editing your track and re-uploading the file. Check to see if it happens again and let Looperman know, okay?
Beyond that I liked the track, there were bits of it that reminded me of some of the songs on the Wipeout racing games. Thanks for sharing. Later on!
on Angelic Dirge by Hoecus
Hey mate, I would say that this is more Ambient than Trance. Though if you were planning to add more to this (like bass or drums) than this could very easily morph into a Trance track.
As for the desc, I can see it too. It has a very somber mood to it. Later on!
on Knight (demo) by DJVO
Great start here mate! Have you thought of maybe redoing the intro to where it'd just start with the synths and then maybe after like one or two loop measures have 'em come in?
Hmm, and maybe throw in some bass after the 0:56 breakdown? At any rate, I'm diggin what you've done so far. Waiting for the finished version. Later on!
on Motion by koble
In a way this reminds me of classic Euro dance stuff (if only minus the vocals ED commonly likes to use).
And with what Salkizar was sayin, there's also another possibility with giving it some extra flavor without having to mess with the loops or arrangement too much. Do some knob tweekin! If ya got a controller for that sort of thing. Just load about 2 or 3 effects and while this is goin along mess with the accent, velocity, volume, etc. I could load this onto one of my SPs to show ya what I mean if you'd like. At any rate, very nice start ya got here. Thanks for sharing. Later on!
I think I've got to get me one of those SPs (ok what's an SP?..lol). I think I get the idea and I definitely want to do some things like that. What's a good SP to use? I assume you are loading vst effects into it? Send me an email and educate me. I definitely am interested. Thanks for the thoughtful review.

on 3rd Generation by juan1
The ending stops suddenly? I've got to say that's about the only thing I didn't fancy with this track.
Massive kudos for creating all of those Bongo loops coz I know how hard those can be. Well, they're hard if yer painting the notes on a midi mapper (time consuming mostly).
It sounds like ya had alotta fun makin this song. It kinda reminds me of that groove ya get into when things start falling into place and the track seems to capture the energy right off the bat. Thanks for sharing. Later on!
on After The Rain by ArchainZeros
Umm, as for the genre, hmm? I'm not really seeing it as being 'trance', but there are parts that are really melodic. I think it's the drums that throw it off for me. They're more urbane n tech-elect I'm thinkin. So if I were to guess I'd say that this is more 'fusion'.
And on the 3rd play it sounds like you've got yer head around making cool sounds with which loops to use. Now work on learning the software's other features (like fade-ins and outs of certain loops that are different). And then mess with tweekin the different volume levels in the Mastering mixer. Thanks for sharin. Later on!
Fusion ehh? Well that sounds good to me, haha. But yeah thanks for the advice and the criticism...it truely is, much appreciated.
on Sweats Drippin by WUMAK
The intro- I'm thinkin could be faded into. Maybe do like a 15 second build up for the track. And once the build is over you could momentarily drop to silence and then bring it back with a big warped/phased bang. I'm also thinkin that it could use some other female type of vox (somethin like the computer on Star Trek or similar).
This is givin me other ideas, but I'll leave 'em off for now.
Overall you've got a really great start on this track mate. Thanks for sharing. Later on!
on watch me by kosmin
Ya might wanna adjust the sound level of the one synth sequence that starts at around 1:20 because it kinda drowns out the vocal stuff. Either that or drop the vox for that part. Other than that this is a pretty good start. Later on!
on Blinded Visions by petey440
It's also funny because a few hours ago I was on YouTube floating around listening to some of Robert Miles stuff and in a way I'm reminded of some of his more progressive stuff here.
Though I might note that ya might wanna be careful with that extra long snare fill ya got @ around the 1:40 mark. Other than that this is a pretty solid track (though it could stand to be just a lil longer IMO). Thanks for sharing. Later on!
on Driven by The_Acidizer
On it's own I'm kinda reminded of a mix between Offspring and Nirvana. Later on!
on Cant stop me now by Jpipes24
I think I saw what you were going for with this though (and it's a nice vision). The melody worked well with the drum treatment, but I wasn't quite sold on the vocals (dunno why though, maybe it was the mix of tones from rap to growl to singing). At any rate, nice concept though. Later on!
on RelaxSitBackHaveFaith by PhobosDeimos
on bear with me by Kmk0702
And I agree with the desc, very cinematic (specially the build at the beginning, play 2 now). I'm also diggin the modulations ya got on that one synth. Also diggin the lil breaks ya give here and there. Though might I suggest that if ya ever play with this again to make certain parts of it more pronounced (though it could just be my headphones or what have you, that're makin this sound somewhat subdued, shrugs). Later on!
on Ambiatic Flow by djvex
Sweet track mate and I'll agree that it's full of atmosphere. Though I'd recommend that if ya fiddle with this again that ya work of the sudden ending. Kinda seems outta place for the overall vibe of the track, ya know? Possibly fade it out?
Later on!
on dubstep wobbler by DuBzReCoRdInGsTuDiO
Okies, 2nd play now. I'm gonna be honest this has got me bobbin my head (kind like that track Canned Beat by Mr.Ozio, but with a smoother vibe to it). And in a way this reminds me of my buddy Splish's style somewhat. Have you ever heard any of his chunes?
And in looking for another thread I saw the one for this. So I'm def glad I could help ya out mate. It's always flattering and cool to hear people come up with chillin grooves like this. And this got me to thinkin, ever consider messin around with the Trip-hop genre? I'm thinkin you'd have fun with it too. Off for now. Lates!
on Try'in by spacestationwagon
The part of the song I'm at now (1:11 and on) the vocals kinda remind me of the B52s. Nicely done. Lates!
on Where Is The Sun by TraXnCtrl
As for the track, it has really cool elements, but there are parts that just don't seem to fit from where I'm sitting. Kinda like they feel forced or something. Dunno why I think that, but I do. Maybe it's the voc-sam ya used? (shrugs). Wait... No! I've replayed it and am thinkin that it's a matter of tones. Smooth pads next to a hard bassline. I guess they sound like they're competing. Perhaps you could add some filtered effects to it to soften the overall mix? Or add some distortion to the pads to give 'em some grit? This could go either way, ya know? Later on!

on reminisce by Rorshach2021
And as for the track, it has 'slow jam' written all over it. I'm also thinkin this could go either way (with lyrics or without). Though lyrically I'm thinkin some Gospel rap or New Jack Swing stuff would fit it best.
There was really only one part that kinda felt outta place compared to traditional HH. And that's the synth line ya used starting around 3:01. I mean it was cool, but more akin to more dancy stuff, ya know. Other than that you were dead on. Lates mate!
on no name yet by Rorshach2021
(wanna play a game of suggestions? For you I'm gonna say, try your hand at the Space genre- there's a station for it on DI.fm if ya wanna check it out)
Anyways, as for the track. Let's start with some name suggestions first. Hmm, how about...
Countdown
Holding Hands
Until Forever
Constellations
Blue/Red Shift
Yeah, just off the top of my head there. Musically, you did it again mate. Another quality chune right here. Nice layering (especially on the bridge in the 3 minute range). Had an idea for somethin nice for remix purposes afterwards (like do a cutout drop off of everything, but the drums and then some knob tweeks to bring 'em back with some phasing. Like stop, restart muted, bring back in and then drop back out fast 3 or 4 times, stop again, and then restart normal). Anyways nuff gab outta me. Thanks for sharin. Later on!
