This is an absolute masterpiece! The raw, honest emotion in this track hits heavy, and the message of wanting to escape reality definitely resonates right now.

Musically, the production is top-tier. I read in the comments that you started this with a bass loop, but Micky recording that live bass was a game-changing move, it gives the song an incredible, organic 'oomph' and grounds the whole groove beautifully. The texture of the guitar layers blending with those tasty, strategic synths creates such a captivating atmosphere.

And hey, I saw your reply about wanting to make something 'modern' one day, lol! Honestly? Dont change a thing. That seamless blend of David Bowie, Pink Floyd, and 90s grunge vibes is exactly what makes your sound so unique and nostalgic. Your vocals are smooth as butter and fit this style perfectly.

Fantastic job, guys. Hats off!

This is beautiful, Alex! I completely understand why that main sound is stuck in your head now, its absolutely mesmerizing. Creating a 7-minute track around a persistent melody without it ever feeling repetitive is a massive achievement. Just like Juan Carlos said, when that interlude hits around 2:55, you actually find yourself missing that main sequence until it makes its perfect comeback.

You absolutely nailed the emotional weight. It has that raw, melancholic, ever-pervading sadness that Kayos mentioned, but packaged in an incredible electronic atmosphere. The vocals are sweet, the transition is flawless, and every instrument has its own perfect space in the mix.

Stunning piece of music, my friend. Don't worry about the loop in your head, it was completely worth it! Massive respect!

Man, This is a massive industrial trap banger! For an instrumental track, it has so much narrative and dark energy, it completely feels like 'urban unrest in a concrete jungle,' just like Kayos said.

The sound design is incredible. It honestly sounds like it belongs on a high-octane cyberpunk soundtrack. The production is so heavy, gritty, and tight.

Even without vocals, the track carries a tone of weight and keeps you hooked from start to finish. If you ever decide to throw some vocals on it, it's going to be a total weapon, but as it stands, it's already a masterpiece of industrial trap. Excellent work, Mindway. Massive respect!

This is a stellar piece of work, Robin! You put that Pnnywze 'jigsaw' together perfectly, its a fantastic way to showcase Aarons loop pack. You can definitely feel his signature DNA in the atmosphere, but you gave it your own unique spin.

That hypnotic melody and the sweeping pads create such a dope, immersive vibe, and then that overdriven kick drum just snaps everything into place with massive energy. It definitely gives off those classic 2016-2018 dark trap vibes, like something Future would absolutely crush.

Tight arrangements, great balance, and pure quality throughout. Awesome collab between two great creators. Respect, man!

Man, a 7-minute epic track and it doesn't lose an ounce of energy from start to finish! This is absolute top-shelf production.

Aaron, those guitars are incredible bro, they give the whole track that raw, signature edge that perfectly glues the heavy industrial atmosphere together. The integration of the Suicide Boys vocal samples and Jeff Scheel is flawless, and that bridge around 3:02 that Kayos mentioned is an absolute highlight. Pure underground energy.

The mix is gold standard; the low-end and the subs hit so heavy but everything stays crystal clear. Huge congratulations on the upcoming album, guys. You should be incredibly proud of this project.

Massive banger! Respect to the whole Squadd!

im rockin with this one. Go OFF!

Man, this is absolutely massive! That 'Sludge Trap' label you gave it in the replies fits it perfectly. Its dark, heavy, and has that gritty industrial edge mixed with a thunderous low-end that just pulls you right in.

Those riffs guitar parts and the alternating melodies create such a dope, dark atmosphere. Total 'deep dungeon' vibe, just like Kayos said. Your signature style is stamped all over this one, Aaron. The mix sounds incredibly solid and deliberate.

Absolute banger, bro. Keep doing your thing and pushing those boundaries! Massive respect!

These lyrics are brilliant! That 'put-on smile', the nervy presentation, and the 'weak instant coffee' line cracked me up. Its a flawless, incredibly relatable picture of the corporate world. Anyone who has ever been stuck in one of those office meetings can feel this in their bones.

Lets keep it objective and adult. Solidarity shouldn't blind us to basic facts in a community built around real production craft like Looperman.

Comparing a prompt-generated track from Suno or Udio to an audio engineer using an AI-assisted compressor or a traditional live orchestra is a massive stretch. There is a galaxy of difference between using a plugin to enhance a human performance and rendering an entire songvocals, lyrics, and instrumentsfrom a text generator, and then passing it off as a live recording with fake crowd noise.

Claiming that certain 'live vocal qualities' or 'live performances' are proof of reality when those alleged projects and their collaborators have absolutely zero digital footprint, zero industry records, and zero human existence outside of an AI algorithm just proves the point.

Furthermore, referencing external numbers doesn't change reality. Anyone knows how the digital market works: having hundreds of thousands of views on a video but only 4 or 5 commentsall coming exclusively from the exact same closed circle of profilesis the textbook definition of artificial traffic and bot-inflated metrics. Real audiences leave real engagement. If these tracks were from actual gigs in front of thousands, there would be dates, venues, and at least one anonymous person posting a short video, a picture, or a tweet about the show. Instead, there is absolute digital silence from the real world.

Defending AI-generated content by creating a fake narrative is an insult to the thousands of real producers here who actually spend hours building a track from scratch. Politeness is great, but honesty towards the craft is what keeps this community alive.

Hi Paul!

Just listened to your new track and I have to say, this is a really solid EDM production. The melody is beautiful, and you've nailed the structurethe build-ups have great energy and the drops hit exactly where they should.

Also, credit where credit is due: the mix is incredibly well-balanced, especially how the lead vocals sit perfectly in the pocket without getting drowned out by the rest of the elements. Really clean work here. Congrats!

By the way, that's exactly what's happening to me right now with my comments; they're disappearing. Interesting, isn't it?

Hi Chris, I'd also like to know more about Nadine. Her time here was like a shooting star. I've tried to find more info about the band, but there's no trace of any of them; it's as if they've vanished off the face of the earth. Interesting, isn't it?

This is what real music sounds like, Glenn! Absolute class. There is a soul and a warmth in this improvisation that no computer or text prompt could ever replicate.

You can distinctively feel the touch of the fingers on that Ibanez, and that Tascam combined with the funky imagination did magic here. Pure, raw, human talent and a killer groove with GuitarteamNL. Thanks for keeping it authentic, mate. Huge respect!

Hi Juan Carlos!

First of all, I wanted to sincerely apologize to you. You are completely right about one thing: you uploaded your music to share your work and enjoy the community, and it wasn't fair of us to turn your track's comment section into a heated debate forum about AI and metrics. That was your space, and I'm sorry for contributing to that tension.

easy, it is a AI track

I like the vibe on this one! The percussion work here is great. Having Richard Shekari on the vocals is a massive win, his voice brings that genuine human warmth, soul, and authenticity that AI just can't replicate. This is how a solid, human production is supposed to feel. Great job, man!

tuff beat bro. Banger!

The lore behind this is amazing, bro! hahaha! And the sound design definitely lives up to 'The Age Of Ckopper'. You can really hear that vibrant, sparkly energy of the Elektrostaticum in the mix. Great beat!

Excellent work on the track, great collab!

amazing track bro!

so cinematic, so good, good job guys!

good job bro, sounds good!

super cool, amazing drop bro

Great instrumental, it sounds like it's being played by a real live band. All your songs are amazing, but I think this one is one of the best.
