Hey Mate, We should have a chat one day, as I think I would be mesmerized by the artistic connections and stories you would have would be mind-blowing. I am a retro-Futurisic sort of artist and tend to touch the esoteric, but damn, I appreciate the Histoire and ennui of what you have experienced. In my University days, I DJ'ed at the radio station. I met the local talent at the time in NYC, Pepi Marcello of the "Good Rats", who was promoting his own Son's band Marcello, and told me about the upcoming album from Meatloaf on CBS (Bat out of Hell 2). My friend drummed for the Rosenburgs before they kicked him out, as they were on the cusp of success. I served Dee Snyder and his Wife when I worked at Costco on Long Island Many years ago, and they were the absolute nicest people. Every time, I was so impressed as he trekked up to Quebec to sing with Isabelle Boulay on a Quebec T show last year. I moved to Quebec when I met and married my wife (Who used to sing Opera and introduced me to that world), and have loved the music up here as well. I love listening to the new and weird music of the world, and remixed and influenced a few artists, but mostly now I putter around and try to give some sage wisdom to the willing here on Looperman. I took a break for about 8 months as both my parents passed in the last year, and I found it hard to be inspired to write again.
Dude, I like this as it has a positive vibe, bring the vox up in the mix and back off some of the FX on the vox, you will have a killer track. I can hear it, Mate!
The method why the madness,,,,, The vocalist used a phaser on himself and I spent days trying to reverse and/or bury...... converting vox to mono became hollow...
lol,,, i had no choice but to let it rip.....
appreciate your excellent ears and experience. Sal
Not the biggest fan of EDM, but I like how you build and then bring it down and re- build again. Structure can be as key as the instruments are. So great job!
I do like this as it has great potential, and you can sing. What we need, though, is some crunchy guitars and not synths (and that's coming from a synth player), but this is a good song that needs some proper exploration.
So sweet, my friend, I needed this after an intense day back from PTO today. I had a nice Quebec gin & Tonic, listening to some sweet, sweet jazz from you. You have about 3 years on me in the Looperman timeline, but I appreciate this fine music in this fine music. Salut mon ami!
crucethus. I just listened to your latest track and tried to comment but my laptop just kept "spinning". I used to be a third-party software developer for HP. So I have always bought HP products. Maybe time to try a MacBook. Anyways I really like your latest track. I am not too familiar with artists in that genre. I read the long list of people who influenced you. I had Christmas dinner with Neil Young and his then actress girlfriend, Carrie Snodgress, in 1971. He invited me up to his Broken Arrow Ranch and I went to see his recording studio being built. You'll be happy to know he is a real nice person. Good one to have as an influence. I never met anyone else on your list. My band did play a private party for Ronnie Wood (Rolling Stones) and Rod Stewart. All old memories. Now I have new memories of crucethus and many other wonderful persons on LM. Thanks for posting your track. I'll watch for future posts. Take care (and keep warm up North), Cosmo
Ach nae much jis twiddling aboot here min, Not much really constantly trying to improve my production which i think i am getting there thanks for asking hope all is well with you now man good to see you again.
i can see why Angine de poitrine would get your juices flowing they are cool https://youtu.be/0Ssi-9wS1so
Ok, interesting choice to abandon the circle of fifths to create that very different chord key change. Maybe that's the future,e IDK. I love it when someone gets that experimental. As long as you know why you did that, good on you. Interesting track.
Puss N Boots Into, Sweep to bring us in. Nice bass though. I love the deep female vox, and you have the snare mixed at the right moment. Added to Fav's Nice progressive sound while holding on to an essence of commercial. Really, nice work, mate! This is what separates the amateurs from the pro's.
Welcome back buddy, I have been taking a break as well after the loss of my Dad in May, sorting out all of the details, but I am back, I have been building a new Workstation as my old one is Windows 10 and I can't upgrade it. Sounds real nice. Keep it coming!
nice to see you Steven sorry to here about your father its nice to know your still out and about with your music and building a new workstation, ive just upgraded all my FL Stuff :))
Awesome work, you should check out the Soundtrack to "Flash Gordon" done by Queen. Very similar sound sets and approach on the instrumentals. Great Job
Back with a vengeance, as they say. Love the dialogue between you and Manuela. Nice synth pad opening, then some nice dissonant chords. I was just reading an excellent article on Judas Priest, when they put out Turbo, and how some fans rejected it for the synth treatments. But let me tell you Brother that shit has stood the test of time. Also, the fact that it was to be a double album called Twin Turbos until the record company said nah, uh.. so ram it down was the second. I love the fact that they always pushed experimentation and genres, like I try to do. This Is an excellent piece of work, my friend. fav'd
I like the dialogue too. It kind of reminds me of the old days here, when we would carry on in a thread. Now it seems like people just comment to get their track to the top. A one and done sort of thing. Oh well, what'cha gonna do? We can't always be like Ponyboy, right?
I was in 6th grade when Turbo came out. It was the first time I was knowingly exposed to Judas Priest. I absolutely loved the synths mixed with the...we'll call it rock. I was going to say metal, but by today's standards, it's not metal at all. But I still love the hell out of that album. In fact, Priest is one of my favorites. Especially their early work.
Thanks for swingin' by, Steve. I always appreciate it when you do.
I hope things are starting to look up for you. Or, at the very least, getting easier. Sincerely, take care brother.
