on Marzipan by amaTheArtist
Excellent first go! Beautiful piano with the thunder storm rolling in. I close me eyes and see a beautiful summer day rain gently falling, I open them and see a snow storm outside UGH! :D Freesound.org excellent site for sound samples for your future projects, rain, ambiences, ect. really any sound you could want. :D Welcome to looperman.

on Razing Chronos by Byleth
Excellent subject matter and job here!! I had an idea for one similar where we travel in a time machine to different eras and the music would represent that time period. Kinda makes me think of Dr. Who and his Tardis :D

Byleth replied 29th Jan 2015 - 11 years ago
I love DR. WHO ! thanks for this comment and yeah my concept is quite common I did the same concept with a DS game allowing you to create "music".

on Stringor by Byleth
After reading V's description all i could picture was a dark circus comes to town like Killer Clowns from outerspace :D Ever try working with sound samples? LOVE dark creepy! I can't help myself! I use harmonic minor scale to make a lot of melodies because of it's dark, demonic sound :p Well done :D

Great comment and feedback, Im so sorry to reply you with a long delay but like you I was a bit busy.
I will try to check all your 44 tracks and write constructive feedback

With what I hear from you at this moment your are pretty great well skilled in composition and mastering grats.

Maybe one day if we both are not than busy we could make a track together.

P.s Maybe means MAYBE !!!!

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 stand by me instrumental by larrybarrow31
you could make chicken crap soup with chicken crap LOL! Vocals would definitely finish this piece off nicely. I can hear someone rapping over this real emotionally :D I like the repetitive piano with the choir backing, it's like thoughts going on in one's mind, reflecting on some past event.

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
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!

promenade2239 replied 15th May 2015 - 11 years ago
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).

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z7qNsz6ZagA

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,

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
