on Comin' On Strong by Rorshach2021
Compressed air away from us mate. It'll ruin our duds, haha. Anywho, that hit used that sounds like that is fricken wicked.

I dunno about the rest, but I think this track is good enough without the vocal samples. I mean, I really like it when I hear an awesome trance tune that doesn't use any vocals. As if the artist is wanting us to add dialog on our own. Where the song paints the landscape and the listener is supposed to add the characters.

As for the solo thing, you come up with amazing stuff on yer own and I, for one, wanna hear more originals. Lates!

on heaven and back by train by Rorshach2021
& those pesky deleted users. Blast them! hahaha.

The bass rawks off socks, but instead I will try to emphasize my comment on other aspects.
*The drums are kik'n (I especially dig the tonal breakdown part and the squashy sounding hit ya use).
*The synth leads are decent too. I like the timeless Euro quality they posess, but the way they are subdued is 50/50. To me they work really well and give it a marching on air feel. I may haveta add this to my looperman collection. Thanks for sharing and lates!

on Wadda Ya Call It by Mokeone
This is the second track that I've heard in which you've used stuff from that site you mentioned. I do believe I will now haveta go n check it out (and later try to produce my own track from it and then feature the link on my ADHD page).

Which also reminds me of something (at around the 1:30 mark). I've got a loop that I think you'd really like (and might just be a nice fit there) entitled 'Sark Steps' that I needta upload on here after this.

I might haveta download this and add it to my Looperman collection. Thanx bud!

on Horizontal Folk Dance by Planetjazzbass
In my mouth and everyone's invited (haha, that was a quote from an old Simpsons episode in which Homer creates 'The Flaming Homer' drink).

The vocal samples were killer and the rest just seem to outdo the other. Kinda like each musician or component wanting to be the top dog/center of attention. I may very well download this. Thanx for sharing!

on Leperville by Planetjazzbass
An extremely interesting choice for a title there. Perhaps an expressionistic view of world of sex in this day in age? Still something powerful, addictive, healing, etc., but that comes with greater risks now??

Trackwise, I'm diggin the usage of effects and different odd sounds. Almost minimal in nature, but extensive to the whole (much like the petals and seeds on a Sunflower). Awesome Possum, buddy!

on Chilly (Interlude) by DougieDJ
This kinda reminds me more of something under the Dream- ___ classification. And would be perfect for something like Bubble Bubble or some Mario spin off as is.

I'd kinda like to see how this would shape up if ya expanded it into a full song. Cheers!

on Loving You (Splish Remix) by DougieDJ
As for grime, I've heard about it, but was always under the impression that it was only a term used to describe an MC's style of flow on any given track (perhaps there are instrumentals that would befit an MC whose prone to using grimy lyrics).

Anywho, I think it's awesome that ya remade this song because the original was pretty choice. Kind of an interesting spin on a pop/R&B classic. Nicely, done. Lates!

on Heavy Duty by Mokeone
KIIIIIILLLLLLL! Assimilation is not an option, lol.

This one reminds me of a wicked blend of Gravity Kills and KMFDM. The only thing that would make this track any sweeter would be the addition of vocals (a girl with attitude or a guy with supressed anger, kinda like the chicks from Kitty or Hard Knox or the guys from Staind or Type-0 Negative). I might haveta forward this to my buddy DJ Minox coz I think he'd really dig it. Lates!

Kool, Mr.DV. Go ahead and pass it around. Do you know anyone that would want/be able to put lyrics on this? (I Love Type-O Neg. Deathly sweet.) Thanks for listening & all the great reviews. aka Bill

on 12601 by Mokeone
The beauty of creation comes about through sheer mistake and from a lack of insight. The female vocal samples kinda remind me of the first music prog I messed with (not MM7).

It's pretty nice for being your first one. Very structured and organized. There is some flightiness, but it ties together well. Thanks for sharing this with us mate. Cheers!

on Beach Days by Planetjazzbass
There has never been a 36th chamber and never will be, because the common man is not yet enlightened enough to learn our techniques (an extemporaneous qoute from the martial arts classic, The 36th Chamber)

That's because the first part of this song kinda took me to a scene of people meditating under Cherry trees with the nearby cat-tails being buzzed by Dragonflies. Interesting vibe this has!

on Robot Planet by Planetjazzbass
Wait, no. That was said to have been destroyed in the '07 movie. Dang it all! Wait a tick, we've still got the planet Junk from the original (or was that destroyed by Galvatron? I can't remember now).

I think if we wait long enough that might happen here on our planet (research transhumanism if curious).

Anyways, this song has a pretty interesting feel to it. I absolutely love the main synth leads on this (reminds me of old sci-fi). The drums and bass seem somewhat at odds, but they work. I really dig the Josh Wink feel they have. Solid sweetness chum!

on Sinister Moods by Mokeone
That's the first thing that came to mind upon hearing the opening leads and pads. As you said, very dark and I could imagine someone in a room of mirrors surrounded by a bunch of things that go bump in the night.

I could see this one scoring a thriller or suspense film. Kinda like A Clockwork Orange meets Halloween takes on House of Wax and Resident Evil something or other. C-c-creepy!

on Island Fun by Mokeone
Make a sister track for this one too. So far I like what I'm hearin (and since I'm a big fan of drums and island sounds this is perfect). The synth sounds like a mix between old Michael Jackson and Disney show themes from the late 80's. Haha, sorry!

If I do make a spin off I'll prolly try to keep the same percussion vibe, but will switch the snyth stuff to bass. Rawk on!

on Dark Stories by GameboiX
As does that super sweet drum sound or effect (?) you use on this. It's absolutely killer and I would lurve to use just that sound font in some of my stuff (was that a loop suggestion/request, lol). Anywho, the bass was nice though basic. The eery pads were killer and kinda give it a supernatural feel. Tres kudos plus!

on Something Different by GameboiX
Hahahaha & OMG @ Gizzard. That was great!

Anywho, this one's really speakin to me. Kinda like a mix of break beat for the drums and world/techno for the synth and bass. Though I love the darkness the bass adds. Kinda like it'd be used for hard house or something. Super sweet blend mate. A fav. Lates!

on Shadows by supaloopz
This paints a picture of someone on a sunny day walking down a sidewalk and looking down upon the shadow they cast. As if it speaks to them through their motion. Man, I really wish summer would get here. Bravo!

on Regeneration by supaloopz
It also reminds me of Metroid. I dunno much about Prime, but on the original it reminds me of the first secret zone (the one closest to the starting point of the game).

I also agree with Mos's comment about the stabs. As well as, the Pizi plucks. Uber interesting!

on Mission to Murmansk by Planetjazzbass
And it will grow on you. Like so many strands of hair dancing in the wind. There's a certain part of the synth that reminds me of Nynex off his album Arrows. Righteous!

on Tennhutt by Planetjazzbass
Yeah, that's the way the guitar's on this sound to me. Like classic rock and roll riffs of the 50's. Though it also possesses a light amount of trip to it too. As if I could see this being played in a smoked up head shop with bead curtain doors, off-green or yellow painted walls with multicolored furnishings, and a dirty brown shag carpeted floor. I think I'm gonna add this to my favs. Thanks for this!

on Anchor ( ft anchor ) by Mokeone
The way people on this site come together. Of the loop sites I've been to this one has the best community of all. In which brilliance like this is spawned through the linkage of like-minded musicians and where their mastery is bridged to create smarter sounds!

on Eastern Thumper by Mokeone
Where the beat goes BOOM bidi bidi bidi bidi boom tis tish tasha. Hahaha, sorry. This one is superbly ethno-centric and somewhat mix-matched between various regions. The drum sounds somewhat Eastern European (in a Waltzy sorta way) while the Sitar sounds more Arabic then Hindi. Nice hybrid ya made here!

on Going Wild by Mokeone
Boomers, Cocktails & Diamonds, The Arena...

For yer request, step 1- go to Jacksonville, NC. step 2- scope the killer local metal/rock scene. step 3- find a band to collab with. step 4- set up a gig at any 1 of the number of cool establishments for 'em there. step 5- play, wow, and enjoy!

on Is There Hope by Mokeone
Was the intent of the mixers and musicians while they threw this together.

This track kinda reminds me of the scores for certain action arcade games of yesteryear. Namely FPS's and starfighter sims. Kinda like there's a large unknown force approaching with hostile intent and our side has to assemble to fight 'em off with loads of laser beams and power-ups. Rawk on mate, rawk on!

on Timez Runnin Out by GameboiX
with marbles in my mouth... C/O Weirld Al's spoof of Nirvana's Teen Spirit. I know, very random and off topic perhaps, but that's the way the Banana peel peels. Now who wants a Fanta?

I the drums are pretty solid. At first I thought the bass was shakey, but it came together nicely with the synth a little later. Especially the opening loop patches of keys. Very nice and warbly!

on 3B XT Arp by GameboiX
Isn't it amazing how you can produce such an awesome piece of work in such a short amount of time? Some people might frown upon it, saying that it takes time to blend perfection, but I think that short bursts of brilliance is another form of creative mastery.

The song really comes together at around the last half of minute 2. I love the way this sounds flighty, but is concentrated around a theme of basic flow. The only thing I could think to add would be some nice pads towards the end (if you were wanting to give it a trancy feel). Or mod the drums by lacing in a second patch set (to give it a harder dance edge). All in all it sounds tight as is!
