As creative as ever Mister Dragon! I'd love to have a peep inside your mind for a whole day. I imagine it buzzing with lyrics .... things you made up .... things you heard and things you read .... all vying for position in the room marked creativity. Must be a big and busy room. I can see a thousand words ever tumbling over one another while decisions are struggling to be made on how can I put this bit and where can I use this and oh wow those words and that message are wonderful I must get it out there! Your head is like a beehive of buzzing activity.
My one criticism is your voice should be louder. The whole piece is quite gentle but a little to gentle. The message in the lyrics box needs declaring loud and clear. You need some fire and brimstone. You need to be bashing that pulpit with a sense of urgency. Eight out of ten for creativity ... ten if that voice can be fronted up.

Retro gaming for sure!
And there's money in it.

First the genre thing.
I have no idea why this is classed as hip hop.
I'm 63 which doesn't help. We all get stuck a lot in our own time zones with music as you probably will yourself ... to a degree. The good thing is being amongst creative people on a place like this you get to flit about and enjoy all manner of stuff. I/m finding that I'm commenting on a lot of hip hop tracks. Because I'm enjoying them. I have this distorted view of hip hop being young black guys who wear their hats backwards and say yo a lot and do funny hand movements. But like I say I'm finding myself commenting on more and more of this stuff but it just sounds like good music to me. Good for film and tv production. Listening to this with my eyes closed and my hat on the right way round I was on a city street with the sun just going down and someone counting their money on the corner of an alley way.Have I got enough to hit a few bars tonight and get a cab home ... if I can avoid Johnny yeah cos I owe him twenty quid and that could ruin my plans.
I didn't check the genre by the way till I was settling in across the road from the alley watching this guy.
Okay I might be crazy but music paints mind pictures for me .... puts me in movies transports me top places and this tune did that. If it does any of that I listen all the way to the end and often .... come back and listen again ... see if the guy caught his cab.
Excellent little piece.

Great piece and I have to agree about the loudness. The levels need sorting. I know I know my wave forms are almost a block but I aint as talented as you so I've got a good excuse. It sits well with the description.
I'mn interested in space and creation and evolution and the whole science/religion/philosophy of reality ... struggling trying to understand quantum mechanics just now which is a truly mind altering substance in it's approach to reality. I'll give this a few listens whilst reading.
I came up with this recently ... I think it's my own as I don't remember seeing it hearing it or reading it but ....
The very first sentence in the Bible is very short but full of the whole of the creation of reality .... or I could of course just be slightly bonkers.
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
Beginning ... a reference to time.
Created ..... a reference to energy.
God .... a reference to spirit.
Heavens .... a reference to space.
Earth .... a refernce to matter.
Hey the tune was good and I'm downloading it!

I had to fave this one before I got half way in!
I know the genre for it too.
Umpa Lumpa music.
How the hell you're really supposed to describe this I don't know. Maybe .... unique.
It's dark and I was expecting Joe Kramers voice to pop up at any time. This one I've found quite inspiring.

Very unusual. Kind of circus theatrical. Sounds very complex like a lot of hard work went into this and there is so much going on yet it isn't crowded it isn't squashed mushy. It's actually open and spacious. Very creative and works brilliantly. How I don't know because there's definitely a touch of the asylum here.

I have no idea why this is hip hop because I simply don't understand all these genres people keep making up! This to me sounds cinematic tv theatre and very good too. Be great in a telly scene of some kind.

There's a wonderland kind of sound to this that I can imagine in a kids series or film.

Your not alone in the struggle to be creative. I have long periods where I'm not happy with much of what I produce but I've learnt to save stuff and maybe go back to it later maybe not. Some of the people on here arte not only exceptionally talented and creative they are prolific too .... very. Wish I could be like that but it's not happening. A drum a cymbal a hi hat a rim shot a bit of smooth synth or guitar something as smooth as the the rest of it. Maybe something a little muted like a bass of some kind. But to my ears what you have there just now doesn't sit right.

Very pleasant piece.
Two criticisms.
The white noise kind of rush which I myself use lots at 1.05 doesn't belong in this piece it's not needed.
Second it needs a couple of break points tempo changes whatever to just break it up that little bit. Otherwise I found it very relaxing and very well put together.

My thirty two year old daughter was visiting and just downloaded this!!!! That tells me this is a highly saleable commodity. Not my scene but IO've got to admit this is very pro sounding. I can see why you were drawn to this pella. You've done a grand job of putting some music to it and I hope the vocalist appreciates your efforts but seriously my daughter has never shown the slightest interest in theis place and what we do. Someone just got a new fan.
Very pro sounding.

You have fantastic voice quality Joe.
I know I've said it before but you have.
There's definitely a touch of Kraftwerk about some of your electronic stuff. Very dark this but very uplifting at the same time somehow.
Very creative.

The fade out and repetition from the 6.00 point gives me the impression that this guy is never going to escape!

Yo Mister Dragon.
Nice to see you being as creative as ever.
Unusual approach this one but works nicely.
You and Joe Kramer are my two favourite voices on here.
You both have a very distinctive voice quality that is perfect for story telling poetry reading singing and especially electronics.

I faved this yesterday but seem to have not posted the comment I made. This is a beautiful piece of music. Do you put your stuff in a library or index kind of thing for selling to film companies advertisers etc? I have a friend who does it with photography. The reason I ask is it's all very well giving us the Privilege and the pleasure but it deserves a much wider audience.

I like this banging stamping cartoon anger!
I get anger but anger with humour.
It's almost joyful but angry.
How that works I don't know.
Criticism: Needs a bit more variety.

Brilliant.
Takes me back to eighties moments with New Order and the Hacienda club in Manchester NoRth West of England.
gREAT ATMOSPHERIC STUFF THIS AND TODAY i Think I will get the chance to have a full listen to your reverbnation stuff.
Nice work Joe.

The music sounds really interesting.

Wow!
The first bit that got me was .... the description of what lay before me should I press the play button.
An unusual description to say the least and maybe a bit over ambitious but nope .... worked just fine. Set the scene for me and I settled in with that story and that feeling and that place and what a decent family they all turned out to be too!
I do a lot of looping and then editing and effecting etc and piano electric or other wise is so far to difficult for me to get right. My big challenges at the moment are adding vocals and using piano. At the moment I feel I'm beginning to get there slowly with the vocals but the piano will have to be for another time.
I've also tried a few approaches to jazz but oh dear so cold and automated and soulless.
This sounds like the real deal.
Not only am I well impressed I'm a little inspired too.
Fantastic little number that sounds genuine and warm and very real.

Very pleasant experience listening to this.
Sounds absolutely wonderful.
Keep on keeping on and
Let it be.
Greetings from Wales .... part of the U.K.

Very different sound quality to the norm here!
Unusual stuff and well put together.
I feel flanging to my man.
Look forward to hearing more like this one.

Fantastic!
Very professional sounding piece.
Very well put together and different ... very different.

That to me is something that would come on the radio as I'm driving along. Nicely done.

I don't like stuff like this.
I love this!!!
Very nicely put together.
Who wrote the lyrics?
The voice has endless possibilities.
Well impressed.

Sorry to hear you're dead Joe but the music still sounds good.
Is it true the Devil has the best music?
