Whomever Glenda is, you described her musically my friend. That Piano is sublime. Awesome use of 7th chords. great work!

Always a pleasure to hear from you Steve. Thank you so much for positive thoughts. Funny enough, that piano was only
optional at the beggining but eventually found it's way in.

With appreciation____Leon

I love everything about this work of art except the drums. they need to be organic with a touch of reverb for space.

Gimme Gimme More.... I like the minimalism of this one, Hypnotic in it's approach, and yet the percussion is so a tonal... awesome.

on RIPPY by TheNewWaveGroup
"I see a woman in the night
With a baby in her hand
Under an old street light
Near a garbage can
Now she puts the kid away,
and she's gone to get a hit
She hates her life,
and what she's done to it
There's one more kid
that will never go to school
Never get to fall in love,
never get to be cool."
7 out of 10, could have processed the guitars better in the mix with a wider stereo field, (sounds very garage like) but nice playing though, and classic riff.

on Teri Baahon Mein Rehna Hai by akhileshsekhri
Nice, what mic are you using, also the vocals have a bit too much compression, and lose the Auto tune, I want to hear your real voice, ehh!

Very good sound, not quite jungle, but a damn catchy electro tune with Dark gothic overtones.

on Box Room Remix Feat How to Loot Brazil by EricMilligan
Hey Eric,
you are in luck.
for windows linux or apple there is an app called Mixx. It is DJ software and allows you to digitally play decks and it's free. But it also functions nicely for me as a BPM counter and Key finder. In your case, this song is in the key of Eb major Ionian Mode at 75 BPM, and it's counter part would be Cminor if you used an aeolian mode, but this is clearly a major scale tune. I also jammed to it on my keyboard and it's clearly in Eb and I think the fun chords you are using are variations of 7th chords. Lends to a nice bluesy feel.

I AM in luck, Steve. Not only because there apparently is an app that can help me figure out the key of a song ( I usually don't have this much trouble), but also because there somebody like you who point me in the right direction and to actually make the effort to jam to my track to confirm the key for me! :) Thanks very much, my friend! You just demonstrated the value of the Looperman community.

This is all a bit embarrassing, frankly. I can't even figure out what key the track I composed is in. I think at some point early on I did wonder if Eb was the actual key, but for some reason decided it probably wasn't. And, then when I played in the piano solo and mute trumpet part using a blues scale that seemed to be in the key of C, I figured the whole thing must be in C minor. Which is, of course, the relative minor for Eb. I must be getting old. Wait! I AM old! :)

Thanks again. I will check out Mixx for sure. I wonder how it will work on just the acapella alone. I think most acapellas on Looperman don't indicate the key, so figuring that out is the first step. In theory, makes developing a appropriate chord progression easier, although I've never done it that sequence.

on Box Room Remix Feat How to Loot Brazil by EricMilligan
Hey Eric, good stuff here. Around 1:28 is where your chord structure becomes more intricate. But a great selection of chords to go with this accapella. Gives it a blues-jazzy feel, especially that muted trumpet at the end. Your mix has set an atomsphere with the pella, which is what one would hope to be able to do with creating music. well done

EricMilligan replied 1st Feb 2018 - 8 years ago
Thanks, Steve. I did try to voice the chords not in root position, at last part of the time. That's a change for me because I'm not really good at inversions.

Also , it is possible that the complex chords that Logic was saying I was playing were actually mis-identified due to the fact that, in Logic, I might have specified the key of the song incorrectly. I wish there was some app that could analyze an audio file and tell you what key it was in.

I set this remix as being in A minor, but the piano solo and mute trumpet were playing a blues scale in C. Those are related keys, of course, so who knows what key it really is. Could be both, with a key change?

I actually found this one really confusing. Took me a couple of weeks off and on to get it finished.

on Always Be with You by FroggyDJ
Nice tune, excellent chord progression. I love that organ sound, is that a Farfisa emulation? Has a earlier Bran Van 3000 feel to it. I love how the effects are mixed up in this one as well.
Overall a great tune you created.

on Desert in the north by Zivonmusic
This is very nice. I like the ethereal feel of the verses. The chorus needs a boost, if you are going to do stabs like that, you need a bass line running under the two top synth pads to emphasize the huge dynamic in volume and emotional sound you are trying to portray. And not just a repeat of the chords first note. An actual moving bassline giving you the melody. Otherwise it's a nice little tune, keep on this one.

Cru, if you could, please send me a private message or post another comment with this idea in more detail?

It sounds like a wonderful suggestion and I would like to consider it. Thanks
