I would love to play with a band and I'm open to it. It's been a while. I would have to get my ##### togeather though because I'm living off sidework and oddjobs. Thank you for commenting!
Hi Behnam,
I simply love the intro: the rest of the song is very good, but the first 2 minutes are simply excellent!
The tone of your guitar is beautiful: tight and compressed at the right point. The first thing a guitarist needs is a good tone, and you have it my friend.
Ciao, Domenico

Lovely song Carole.
I really love when you sing in French.
As already said by the others, very good use of the loops.
And as usual, your voice is very "accurate" and warm at the same time.
Loved & downloaded

Hi StaticNomad,
My personal rule is to never start a discussion in the track's comments section, but rules are to be broken, aren't they? (and I am Italian, so I am more than entitled to break rules)
Regarding the "left behind" bass: the sound of the bass works well for the rest of the song, but in this spot I would have liked more a touch of growl in the bass sound, to accompany better the drums.
Of course, this is just my thought and I am not sure at all that the song would benefit from this.
Let's come to the comment on the links: I should probably not have said "we would appreciate", please consider this as a "pluralia majestatis" form. I speak only for myself: I am not, nor feel myself by any means entitled to speak for the "community". I am an individual and I express my own opinions.
That said, the explanation is very simple: I tend not to follow links to external sites when I am here on looperman.
This is another of my personal rules, but as we already learned, I may break this rule every now and then... so maybe sooner or later I will follow one of your links.
One last word.
Even if I think it was clear enough in my previous comment, please let me state this once more: the song is very good.
OK. I don't make music to make music to post on Looperman. I make music for other reasons and have tracks on a few different sites. So I will post an external link if I think it's relevant. People can follow it or not, as they choose. As I said, most of the stuff I make is far too long to fit on Looperman.
Yes, it was clear before that you thought the song was very good. Good luck to you too...
Great song. The different genres are mixed together very smoothly (maybe the "house bass" feels a bit left behind in the section which starts around 3:00)
The sax is very basic but very tastefully mixed with the other instruments. Good.
The guitar riffs are well played: sharp as a razor. And used with taste. Good.
The banjo merges very well with the rest. A surprise? I don't know but for sure it works well.
Overall a very good song.
Thanks for sharing.
Domenico
PS: only one comment, please do not advertise so much your music outside of Looperman.com
Upload your tracks to looperman as well before link them!
Nothing serious, but we would appreciate.
OK. Glad you liked it. Not sure what you mean about the house bass being "left behind". It's just the same bassline as before in the d'n'b section but using a classic house bass patch. Maybe you mean it's not quite loud enough so perhaps I need to turn it up. Yes, basic sax but made more interesting with carefully applied effects. I wanted more sax in there but sax player isn't interested in doing any more so I had to make do with what I had.
As regards not mentioning other sites I have tracks on, why can't I do that? I mention them occasionally when relevant because I can't have all my stuff on Looperman because the limit is 10MB per track and many of my tracks are at least 15 minutes long and I don't want to compress them below 128K MP3. What is the problem with me linking to music elsewhere? If you're going to tell someone not to do something, it's best to say why.
Good song!
I really like the bass lines (good bass sound by the way, it sound too good to be a virtual instrument)
The mix is very well balanced and nice use of the "nasa" sample.
Really good.
Domenico
Very good production man.
Like your flow. And the Kennedy's speech is the icing on the cake to this "thought provoking Track" (I have to quote Mr BrillBilly)
Thanks for sharing.
Domenico
Thanks a lot Domenico, I appreciate the support. I wish I could sing better, just not there yet. Probably won't ever be able to sing well enough. Maybe someone will get an idea and drop some vocals.
I definitely like what we have here.
This is a very good starting point.
I think you need some minor changes to get it really flying. As others already suggested, try to "enforce" your vocals by adding a doubling vocal part. Or you could try to stress the melody with an instrument in background: it does not have to play exactly the same melody, but you choose some "key notes" and keep the background instrument moving around these notes.
Looking forward to see this song completed.
Domenico
This is a good song!
Funny lyrics, the music is very well played, good voice.
Everything sits right at its place.
Very professional. This could become a hit.
Good luck guys!
Domenico
Listened again and loved it again!
You have put together a wonderful track Mr 12String!
And I am glad to see that Patricia liked it as well.
Regarding the mix, you did a wonderful job: specially when Patricia starts going on the high notes, you managed to keep everything well balanced. I could hear every instrument.
Well done!
Domenico
Well, this track is superb!
Somebody mentioned the "familiarity" of the sounds you have chosen. But once more the production and the way you mix the track is at the top.
This is ready to be heard as soundtrack for next Stallone's movie (don't know why, but I could imagine him playing the fugitive in this one, either him or Harrison Ford... your call)
Take care,
Domenico
Wonderful Behnam!
The guitar is extremely well played: all notes are clear and distinct. And the sound is awesome!
You really tell a story with your music!
And I was glad to see that after the dark part of life (~1:35), we come to see the light again (2:30)
Take care my friend
Domenico
well my friend , according to the time , let me to answer U in email too righT here about that momenT which U've made me glad to see someone has listened such carefully this trial .I can always except to learn something new from some of my throughbred colleagues & one of them who is most near friend of mine too is U Domenico & so first I should have an exclusive appreciations because of your carefully attention & listeninG . Domenico if U see quality is good cause it's recorded in studio & this time it's not recorded in my home...buT U know that I've done that '' BendinG '' action as always & not studio man ...& yes U're righT , buT I don'T know what should I do to make that second righT ...
and abouT your commenT , again an exclusive appreciation & about what U've expected about let's come back to that bright part of the life ( nice explanation it was Domenico),I'm agree with U buT just I thaughT shorter track would be better & I prefer to listener want to listen any trial more than one time if I haven't repeat that part again ..buT beyond this trial , Domenico do U reallY think the life will behaiviour us in the way which we excepT ?...take care my throughbred friend & in the end the same sentences U know.____Behnam
The track is good guys.
It is a bit "commercial" but I think that was the intention.
The mix is polished enough.
Now you just need to put some vocals on it.
Good luck!
Ciao, Domenico
PS: I see from the past comments that you had one of the most beautiful voices of this site visiting you ... but I am sure you have already checked out the pellas section looking for inspiration so you already know her.
Not bad man!
The music fits pretty well the vocal part, and I know that the "reverse engineering" process of finding the right chords for an already existing pella is not easy at all.
Well done!
Domenico
PS: one technical note.
You have some clipping in your track, nothing too bad anyhow.
But as general recommendation, if you don't have enough time to recheck all the channels one by one, try to keep some free headroom on them, this will avoid clipping.
And you can do the same for your "master volume": you don't have necessarily to reach "0db" on your output meter.
Most tools will normalize for you while "bouncing" your mix, thus bringing the levels to a nominal 0db.
For sure not the best workflow, but it ensures that you don't have any clipping.
And sorry for the ramble...
Another good one. Love your musical touch (I will stop saying this, because I have already repeated it so many times...)
The guitar which starts at ~1:40 is simply beautiful!
And so unexpected in this context.
Respect man!
Domenico
I was listening to Daft Punks latest track,and i loved that guitar playing that the guy from chic plays,so i just thought i would have a go at adding a funky guitar sound too lol!
Real pleased you love it as much as i do!
Thanks for taking time to leave your very kind comments!
I hold all comment close to my heart that's for sure,so big thank you!
Oh, I'm out of those green mint leaves for the moment but you'll have your mojito sooner or later!
It was a fun genre to work with - thanks for listening, Domenico!
