on passing time on sunday by pseudoble

I love how that bass brings us onboard, and then it a nice jumble of ambient. That sax is pleasant as well mate. Brings me a little Roxy Music ambient Joy. ie.. India from Avalon. good work!!

pseudoble replied 23rd Aug 2021 - 4 years ago

Thanks Cru - look forward to your next track

on Driften by Polyfronetic

Welcome back, that's a sinister open. (° ͜ʖ°). I like this one, it reminds me of 1998 sort of a Pul Oakenfold meets Paul Van Dyk with a touch of Tiesto sprinkled in.

Polyfronetic replied 5th Jul 2024 - 1 year ago

First sorry for the super late reply, I was "out of business" for a longer time. WOW, Paul Oakenfold, Paul Van Dyk and Tiesto are super legends, I love them too!

Super creative, avant-garde, and awesome!. I enjoyed the work on this one.

on Deep jungle walk by sirefox

I take that back, my headphone jack wasnt in all the way. nice tune, sounds great ignore the last comments. lol

sirefox replied 7th Aug 2021 - 4 years ago

Hola querido amigo crucethus, yo también pienso que me falta algo de masterización, es una de mis carencias, aparte de más cosas. No sé como utilizar esos vst, por lo que me dedico a utilizar la panorámica,un compresor y algo de eco y reverb. Me doy cuenta escuchando a gente tan preparada como tu que mi sonido esta muy embarullado y hay que separarlo en el espacio. Tendré que mirar más vídeos en youtube para ver como mejorar mi masterización. Gracias de corazón amigo mío. Que tengas un gran día. Salud y paz para todos.

on Deep jungle walk by sirefox

Nice Intro. Cool trance house sound. I think this would be a blockbuster if you could widen the mix a bit. hear on looperman there are a few free 3d expander VST´s available. dear reality is one of them as is Management. I think space is what's needed in this brilliant tune my friend.
Stay safe
Steven

sirefox replied 7th Aug 2021 - 4 years ago

Esa es mi realidad, soy un ignorante en el mundo de la masterización, y no me importa reconocerlo porque es así. Me gustaría que me dieras algunos consejos para hacerlo un poco mejor. Gracias amigo crucethus, pienso igual que tú. Necesito mejorar. Que tengas un buen día compañero. Salud y paz para todos.

on The ring by sirefox

So to Disagree with Wahoco, yes this is very much Acid house music. Acid house spawned psy-trance and trance genres, but this ticks all the boxes for authentic Acid-house and is missing some of the elements that would make it Psy-trance. Although both genres have a lot of similarities. I did enjoy this one as Acid-house is one of my specialties. Good work my friend, stay safe and healthy!

sirefox replied 4th Aug 2021 - 4 years ago

Gracias amigo crucethus, te agradezco tus comentarios y la explicación sobre géneros, porque tampoco sé distinguir muy bien entre ellos, por lo que muchas veces intento dejarme guiar más por sentimientos que por los elementos básicos que los compone. Así que seguiré metiendo la pata, sin que sea mi intención profanar ningún genero. Me gusta toda la música en general, pero la electrónica en particular, y sigo a pesar de mis años siendo un pobre ignorante que no sabe reconocer los valores básicos de cada genero. Solo disfruto componiendo y escuchando pistas de gente tan preparada y capacitada como tú amigo mío. Que tengas un buen día. Salud y paz para todos, y viva la música y los artistas que la producen.

on Curved lips of Philosophy Featuring Micky by Jynxz

Pseudoble nailed it. Zappesque indeed. I Felt Transported to the seventies with this one, and that's an alright place to be. nice ¨Live" touches. I have tried that before, a long time ago. Otherwise stellar work as usual my friend. I always look forward to listening to you and Mickey´s brew. This one was tasty.

Jynxz replied 4th Aug 2021 - 4 years ago

Hello crucethus,

I really enjoy making tracks with Micky.
Now that I know he can sing, it should open up
a whole new dynamic to our writing. I had actually
written this track with sample vocals at first but when
I found out that Micky did singing and lyrics I just gave
him the track and he added the Magic.
As always thank you for your listen and encouraging comments.
PEACE...

on The Revenant Song by xstokes

Wow as out there as this is, you can hear the underlying threads that keep this together. But just a wow my friend. 5:48 that sustained note fading was my fav part as it leads into something unique and well dynamically mastered. A Masterpiece of psychedelic sounds. 7:17 made me feel like I just woke up in an Onsen.And that chiptune ending was just taking the piss on all our minds ehh! brilliant!

xstokes replied 9th Aug 2021 - 4 years ago

thank you, Steven! it begs a lot of indulgence, and i’m really grateful for the listen. i wanted to experiment with longer sound sources and spent a lot of very pleasurable time ‘curating’ these sounds. my spirit guides on this were that bastard out of scotland who i’m mad at for being a genius and john oswald’s mix of the dead playing darkstar (talk about indulgence).
cheers, man!

on Sapiosensual featuring Ashes And Dreams by doofus

cool tune. I just enjoyed listening to it as opposed to trying to dissect it. That says something. (NY Accent needed here) Yoose guys deed good here. ;-)

doofus replied 26th Jul 2021 - 4 years ago

Nice words coming from someone like you who's got such a tight sound on all of your tracks. I definitely need to work on my mastering skills, my sound is never how I want it. Thanks again!

on Patrol Flight by StarTravels

Cool intro: That bass at :25 hooked me. Then all hell broke loose at :56 2:17 was an interesting familiar Pad. 3:02 has a cool slightly overdriven clavichord-like sound that I love. Beautiful dissonance at 3:40, those are some massive chords from the jazz world. Bonezonmarz (no offense) may not understand what you guys did there (hence his comment). There is nothing wrong with your bass!!
Awesome work guys loved it
Steven

StarTravels replied 24th Jul 2021 - 4 years ago

Hello Steven,

thank you so much for listening and your review, that's always much appreciated!
and, ahem ... 3:02 is my funk guitar through auto wah ... played live.

Cheers,
Micky

on Who Is Digging on My Grave by spearcarrier

Ahh I love Halloween songs, we have a tradition here on looperman of doing them and posting them, so please make sure you re-post this in October. This reminds me slightly of priest (not judas, but the remenants of the original backing band of Ghost). I will post a reference. This is awesome. great mix, awesome composition.

on acid drops by Zootman

That bassline reminded me a small bit of ¨The Bogus Man" from Roxy Music but with more syncopated drums.. really good, I like the arrangement, the Rhodes, and the strummed guitar chords. well-liked, the vox was cool as well, well delivered.
For ref. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYRUQqJoNW8

Zootman replied 22nd Jul 2021 - 4 years ago

thanks heaps. i listened to that roxy music track. I knew they were pretty experimental in their first incarnation (Brian Eno was with them wasn't he?) but had never heard any of the early stuff. i liked that track, thanks.

on Hot Wire by Dirtzilla

Wow, you nailed that sweet sweet funk sound perfectly. great job!

on If I Could Fly by MichaelMayo

Wow, Awesome song, awesome sounds. very impressed with this track. great job. good contrast between the filtered low fi and the expressive full range sounds.

on FIRST GRADE by T576

Awesome, It fits the end of my evening so well. The bassline drives this along with a hypnotizing groove. All the accouterments fit nicely but just cradle that groove. Good work.

T576 replied 21st Jul 2021 - 4 years ago

Thankyou for the listen and the comment, and you are correct about the bass line it does drive this track. Thanks again. PEACE. T576 OUT.

on Goodbye by sirefox

24 seconds in and I fell in love with this tune. Production is amazing. I love those synths in the massive depth field. Awesome work. Just masterfuly composed. 2:10 was a pleasant surprise. Cinematic in its scope. You made a massive tune my friend. well done! Gracious for making this avail as a download.

sirefox replied 9th Jul 2021 - 4 years ago

Muchas gracias amigo crucethus, me abrumas con tus elogios, me siento muy halagado, esta pista fue un cambio en mi estilo de hacer música. Suelo ser más trance pero me apetecía hacer algo distinto, más lento y pausado. este tema pertenece a un vídeo que tengo en youtube. Gracias nuevamente amigo mío y que tengas un buen día.

on priming the psychedelic drive by bringerofDOOM

Wild Intro. Retro style with future electro. Guitar almost had a Santana-like feel. I think we can call this AI-Jazz, as the robots who will take our jobs are gonna love this at their oil bars after a long day of assembling things. Superb composition and assembly as well as an awesome mix, fav´d. Nice Phrygian mode solo at 3:42. Coda at 4:02 brings it home Massive ending mate, loved it.

bringerofDOOM replied 9th Jul 2021 - 4 years ago

Thanks. I'm addicted to the Neapolitan second.

on Billy Drongos Analysis by pseudoble

Right off the start, I hear a good mix. Then a spoken voice with that BBC Atlantic accent from the 50-60s era. ẅhich relation do you get on with more your Mother or Father" and then a slightly subdued you will almost miss it in the mix gibberish female moan@1:04....and throughout the mix brilliant work. Psychology in a neo-romantic expression? super creative work and I enjoyed my listen.

on March Of The Machines by Orlando51

Like an awesome film score. Awesome transitions and a fantastic mix. 1:34 we change it up in tone and key.
The build-up is fantastic. It reminds me a little bit of Suduaya. great job Leaon.

on Why dont you Stay by Jynxz

I don't find this one weird. I find it the future.

Jynxz replied 2nd Jul 2021 - 4 years ago

Hello crucethus,

I think I label anything that I can't put into a
specific genre, Weird. I was thinking this might be
considered "Progressive R&B" but I didn't want to take
a chance on offending anyone who might be hardcore R&B.

Thank you for your listen and comments

PEACE...

on bye bye so long 2 by terryjmhitsong

Cool, there's a slight Chris Rea feel to this one that I love. I was almost expecting his raspy voice to grace this tune. well done mate. That bass line is also fantastic. Cool work! 2:25 was an interesting minimalist sound as you pulled back on the accouterments ehh? I enjoyed this.

terryjmhitsong replied 10th Jun 2021 - 4 years ago

thx cru....i cant seem to do what i hear on this one....
