on luminous sunset by DanGoldstein
Fits the picture nicely :D i downloaded this to add a few sounds that'd you hear at sunset standing by a lake. Leave it to the nuclear power plants to ruin the beauty of such a place. Scary....

i saw the photographer at work today. turns out this off the New Jersey coast somewhere near Bayonne and she did not even remember the smokestack let alone if it is from a nuke plant! let me know what you are coming up with. I'm working on another bit for it.

on industrial sleigh ride by DanGoldstein
Did you lace Santa's cookies with illicit drugs again? LOL! Is this with that gore beat you sent? Alex's comment confused me, I know of Gore metal, the idea there is to be as disgusting and shocking as possible, Cannibal Corpse is a great example of that. Nice one Dan :D

DanGoldstein replied 23rd Dec 2014 - 11 years ago
I need to listen to Cannibal Corpse. yea - I believe I shared the scratch beat with you a while back. naw - I think at some point I was trying to write something for somebody else's beat and it had the word "gore" in it, but it has nothing to do with the track really. More along the lines of lacing Santa's egg nog. thanks man.

That paulstretch is really interesting :D I use it in audacity a little. What a pleasant piece. Such wonderful things come from experimentation! Keep at it!

hey Burt,

firstly I am sorry for such a delay in replying on this one! Basically this piece is all about the experimentation as I can't play jazz very properly so far (being clasically trained). That stretching-time software is very cool and can really transform very common sounds into something very unique (again: I am really much more into an abstract and experimental ambient than anything which is even that close to 'horror' and movie stuff).

Few weeks ago I managed to do quite weird record from the place where I live http://www.looperman.com/tracks/detail/166164

I will be experimenting with field recording soon but my vision on ambient is much more abstract I guess... always focused on the sound itself. LOL

Thanks a lot for your comment,

Alex/Aleksander

on Breaking Blue L00P CHALLENGE by Spivkurl
The mad scientist does it again! :p Is that a guitar you built? There should be a Spivkurl genre on here ;) That would fix the confusion about what genre. Good one, flows along nicely and all fits together perfect :D I used a synth loop of yours on a new blues track. You should post a few to the challenge to challenge me with again :D Too much fun!
Spivkurl
Spivkurl replied 22nd Dec 2014 - 11 years ago
Hey man, thank you for the comment! It's pretty much self built, if you consider repurposing and salvaging to create something new building.. I'm still wondering that myself. It's the guitar that's still pretty much at the top of the blog http://www.wearerecords.com/spivkurl.html .... That would be pretty weird to have my own genre on looperman. People always brought up SpivStep when I was doing dubstep, but that's not very all encompassing. Glad this flowed well to your ears! Interested to hear this blues track you speak of, I'll try to find it! If I get the time this morning I'll look for some loops too. Thanks again!

on Claws In Me by Spivkurl
oh sorry Spiv mistook you for a piece of furniture (^._.^)/ Very energetic, must be all that coffee ;) Hahaha mad scientist, I think that's a perfect description :D Cool track here :p
Spivkurl
Spivkurl replied 12th Jan 2015 - 11 years ago
Thanks for stopping in! Yeah, Shiloh has mellowed out on putting holes in my hands when I play with her, so that's comforting. Finally were able to uncover the office chair as well, since she's not as insistent on tearing it open... we bought her one of her own, so she shouldn't need to right?! Yes, coffee definitely had a part in this track, as it seems to in most everything I do. You've got the "mad" part right, maybe most mad scientists are as easily distracted as I am? I'm happy you enjoyed listening, and I appreciate the comment!

on Gedanken - thoughts by joecramer
You sure you didn't work on this while sleepwalking too? hahaha That bass line is hyptnotic, going to hear that in my sleep! Industrial Blues :D That's a mix I like :p I like that effect on your voice, I'm doing a dreamy one as well (one of many projects in the works), maybe I'll use a similar effect. Even at work I'm thinking of ideas, stories, lyrics, whatever needed for my tracks :D I find it to be the best place to make up stories.

joecramer replied 20th Dec 2014 - 11 years ago

on Ghosts Of Glencloy by Orlando51
Ghosts, celtic stuff, no way I'm missing this!! :D I believe it was Ireland where they found "Deviant Burials", skeletons believed to be vampires by the unusual way they were buried/abused after death. Interesting documentary on you tube about it, the mystery of the vampire skeletons, or Strigoi. Inspired a whole project for me. I also saw a documentary about the existence of small people like fairies or lepracauhns in Ireland and the possibilty that the myths are for real, based on archaeological discoveries. Spirit world, something I'm fascinated by! Thank you for this pleasant treat Orlando and Ed, fav'd :p

Hush little baby don't say a word, momma's gonna buy you a mockingbird.... oops wrong lullabye :O Minor2Go has some excellent loops! Middle of the night here good time for a lullaby (a couple plays later...) :p Very nice gem you got here. I'll have to check it out again when you complete it :D

on Stiff-Arming Stars by Evisma
Excellent :D Do you find it easy to play guitar coming from the bass? I always find guitar easier after jamming on my bass haha such tiny strings! All is well here thanks :p Working on more metal tunes to get up seeing as Looperman is severely lacking metal!
Evisma
Evisma replied 18th Dec 2014 - 11 years ago
Good to hear from you again!

"Do you find it easy to play guitar coming from the bass?"

Not at all. This is my first electric six-string so I'm learning things I never knew. I currently know three chords. I'm starting at nearly ground level.

With this one, I started with the guitar and got the intro before ever bringing the bass guitar in. I failed to mention to StaticNomad that there is no bass guitar till 0:18 when the bass comes in. The intro is four layers of guitar and the same Taiko loop that is later.

"Working on more metal tunes to get up seeing as Looperman is severely lacking metal!"

I agree! I don't think I could pull off real metal. My stuff may be heavy at times, but I can't call any of it metal. I'll leave that to the better metalheads, such as yourself!

Thanks for the listen and glad to know you are well.

Hey Burt, nice to know that you like it. first i believed that it would be hard to manage this 3 loops, but after starting the second time, all comes just anyway into my mind.

German Misfits with a male singer :)
What a cool compliment.

So thanks for your comment and youre friendly words

stay tuned

on Through the Clearing by topvega
Excellent! Where were you hiding this one? :D If you want another drum kit to play with, this one's free and pretty good. I've been using it lately, little simpler than addictive drums. I do like Add. Drums though :D https://www.looperman.com/free-music-software/detail/manda-audio-mt-power-drum-kit-2 So what;'s through the clearing? safety from.... 3:D

on My Halloween Contribution by Livingsoulsdie
Excellent :D Haloween should be everyday 3:D> Does the creepy music have to stop just because the day has passed? Love darker music, haha Like that Friday the 13th sound. I saw a video where the guy explained how he did that with his voice. I'm a big fan of working with sound fx samples into the track. Good one! Regarding your name, do souls really die? The body does, but what about the soul?

Snow1983 replied 5th Nov 2014 - 12 years ago
I believe it is that. I sometimes use sounds from there which are awesome so you might be right and if I remember I think I did get it from there.

Indeed it is dark and glad you enjoyed it. Thank you for the comment and keep an eye out for more songs off of this album.

on Exit Countdown by Orlando51
Nice build up! :D I like how it gets crazy then the countdown and we're led back into the madness! :D It's like listening/watching a huge band(multiple members)like Grateful Dead do one of their live jams everybody playing different melodies, improvising, but they all work together! Crazy how music works. WOW! what a trip :P Just the kind of music I love and exactly WHY I love music sooo much :D That bass... haha excellent mix, I hate when the bass gets buried in the mix, when it's the bass that really moves the rythym along! Thanks for the dl, this is going on my player :D
