on Still Alive by MGproduct
I really like this. Capture's innocence in a spectacular way. Hope and the future. I would love to add some percussive elements when the massive chorus hits. Maybe a guitar melodic line. I love this song though. Awesome work

on Easy For Me by Spivkurl
Ska, My #####...This is Digital #####. The Genre Atari Teenage Riot created in the nineties and still perform today.
Great job on this BTW. ATR is awesome and >I think you would like their approach on the world if you are unfamiliar.

Ha ha, yep the genre has changed to #####. As I mentioned to someone else, the way I figure it, if I were to replace the synths with brass and play the guitar myself, it would probably make believable ska... maybe I am wrong though. What is the difference between "digital #####" and simple "#####?" I have listened to ATR a good amount over the years, and I do enjoy their stuff quite a bit. Thank you for giving this a listen, and leaving you comment!

on Spivkurl - I Fall Down - Diskonnected RealityRemix by Diskonnect
Very cool, instrumental version. I liked the chilled edge, slightly breakbeat in it's calmest form.

on Something You Said by Planetjazzbass
Percussion, percussion, percussion. That is the delight to me in this track. Oh and the fretless bass. Yes the vox may be gibberish to my syntaxic brain, but the melodies are divine. Very nice guitar with a classic Aussie (historically) reverb on the slightly distorted guitar twangs. Syncopated percussion and the overdriven guitars give me a mid seventies progressive era vibe. Tastefully mixed. Excellent ending on the vox. Overall a pleasant journey and a great job PJB. U get 2 turntables and a microphone for those efforts. ;-)

Hey Cru thanks for the cool review mate....I mostly always spend the majority of my music constructing time on the drum track and sometimes it can deflect the original inspiration into an endless search for a certain triangle ding! lol, it's sort of frustrating but gratifying in the end I suppose, but that's why they invented drummers (and percussionists) I guess!....I already have one turntable (no scratching) and a microphone can I please swap it for an electronic expert to fix my two Tandberg reel to reels which need some work and are gathering dust in a cupboard....then I can splice vocals and run them backwards and leave subliminal messages in my tracks!...cheers mate Dave :)

on Saturday Bugpop by DanGoldstein
Love this sound structure. I was just thinking how it would sound paired with blast beat drums from the heavy metal scene. Or some kind of massive syncopated percussion. But then i am always thinking about percussive elements .
Good work

on The 9th Planet by Planetjazzbass
I wish I could put my finger on the exact sound part I am about to describe. But there is something about Australian guitar music that is just so distinct to that continent. Whether it be yourself, Dave, Or Icehouse, or INXS, or Pseudo Echo, or Crowded house or Midnight Oil, Or the Sherbs, or the Little River band, or many others . When you introduce the guitar in your works. You create a soundscape that is reflective of the vastness of Australia. There is a tinge of melancholy, with a dash of vastness of the desert and bushlands, a moment of beauty of the land and area you live on now. And a feeling of nature. I cannot explain why I feel that way when I hear Australian guitar, but being a science based logical guy, I'm sure there is an underlying reason for my assuagement of the Antipodal guitars!
carry on!

Planetjazzbass replied 9th Jun 2016 - 10 years ago
Hey Cru, thanks man! I can't speak for all those guys you mentioned but we're all pretty much from the same generation and I guess it relates to something that influenced the musical thinking of the time here. Australian musicians really suffered from an inferiority complex pre 70's, not so much from ability but rather exposure to what was happening in America and England, all the cutting edge stuff (I'm speaking broadly here) I mean all the blues anyone played in the 60's was 12 bar and apart from widely dispersed jazz aficionados the place was a musical wasteland...Hendrix happened (I'm only mentioning guitar bands) but nobody could emulate him obviously but then Pink Floyd came along! people could really sink their musical aspirations into that, I wore out their records and so did most of my friends playing them over and over...David Gilmore saved us! haha...your way too kind in your review, my guitar playing is always a work in progress, being a bass player I never use a pick so I steer clear of heavy metal it would cripple me! lol...thanks mate!
Cheers Dave :)

on Cried A Million Tears by Mosaic
Oh, yeah the mix is in the pocket now. Me likey matey. Powerful mix of music and vocals with the subject matter in hand. In the vocal fadeout. I might add a bit of stereo delay on the vocals to make it just that more intruiging and mysterious. Otherwise AOK on this end mate.
Cru da Man!

Good verse, needs a chord change for the chorus. maybe Eb to Abmin to eb to Bb. Just an idea.

on Duzz Yo Momna Eat Yoplait by vigwig
First of all congrats on still being alive Vig, that's an achievement in itself. My momma was (is) a Danone fan. But the verbal alliteration is spectacular in this song. And the loop mixx is as eclectic and wild as I would imagine coming from you. I would ask does "your" momma eat yoplait, but the truth is she and her p***y is so old..........it's haunted by now.
;-0 Thanks for the awesome tune friend!

on 001 Test by bitronix
This reminds me of some of the sounds I used to make on my old Commodore Vic 20. 3 synth lines (one bass), and a white noise generator for the drums, all using peek and poke on basic language trying to make the timing work with the memory lag. Those were the days.

Love the stems you create, the sound quality is superb. And you love synth solo's which is a bonus. I created one with the MiniKorg for this as well in the remix.

on Four Leaf Lover by Spivkurl
Trippy, early U-Vox!(John Fox) style of singing. and all around catchy. Good stuff.
I wanted to share a new music discovery with you. This Duo from Norwich UK is very interesting.

Spivkurl replied 9th Jun 2016 - 10 years ago
Heh, here you are with another ultravox comparison, which is great because you seem to like their style! I've never been able to completely hear the connection, but who knows maybe hearing it when you mention it has influenced me more than I realize? Listening to the song you linked to at the moment. While I really enjoy the vocal recordings, I am not very fond of the music. I think there is a big difference between "simple" and "minimal," and besides the vocals it sounded very simple. I appreciate you bringing new music to my attention, at least I will know who they are if it comes up later on. Ha ha! Thank you for listening and commenting!

on Like this - ft Grotesk the subhuman by TeeGee1965
"This is some pretty good stuff, with some balls. It's almost like a much lighter version of Rage Against The Machine, the best band of their type of music. Maybe they kind of even invented a genre. "

Static beat me too it, first thought in my head was a better softer Rage. Very likable song, great work.

on Yeah Thats Funky Now by Dirtzilla
That is some old school funk indeed. Great use of loops. I agree with silverman as on this site I tend to post songs mostly of loops, but I do also play instruments as well and like the freedom to be able to both. But there is an art to arranging music, and looping like this leads to an arrangers ear. This is great stuff.

on Limelight by PapaNelson
I felt like you were taking us to church with some interesting organ chords. and then the choral vox just reinforced that. Almost as this song is a prelude to something bigger coming later on.

Thanks! And oooh, listening to it again, I see what you mean! Actually puts a pretty interesting spin on things lol. And trust me, there's a lot more to come. I'm only getting better with Logic pro x (Which I got about a week ago), so I hope to make more interesting tracks with much more of that atmospheric sound. Thanks for the comment by the way, It means a lot to see that someone I admire on this website is taking a listen to my music! Much love man!
