on Pieces Ft Devyn Rose REMIX by SeriouslyJoking

Reminds me of the chord changes of the ATB tune Your not alone. very eclectic work from you! And I see your developing your FL piano style. 2:58 is not out of tune per say but just in the wrong key. Has potential though!

SeriouslyJoking replied 10th Sep 2013 - 12 years ago

Hello Steve!
I loved that ATB tune and the Olive version even more! Just listened to it after so many years when I saw your comment. Thanks for bringing all these epic old tunes back to my ears!

Oh, so it's the wrong key at 2:58! I'll look in to that, that part really gave me some headaches...maybe I'll removed it alltogether.
Thank you Steve for listening and giving advice!!
Have a nice day over there.

on DANGER- High Voltage by Filaofsoul

Wow I am a sucker for a great synth solo, and this song delivers. great job

Filaofsoul replied 10th Sep 2013 - 12 years ago

Hey man thanks for the listen and glad you enjoyed. Was a fun tune to make going back to my Jazz roots shortly. Fila

on Gave You away by topvega

down n dirty this sound is. I could see you expanding this tune. By kicking ass like this tune does, then bring the verse down to just drums and a bass line (like the pixies used to do) then blast us in the chorus with this guitar sound, all along with a stone roses like vocal, then you would have one hell of a song!

topvega replied 9th Sep 2013 - 12 years ago

Thanks bro... Appreciate the kind words. I agree with your ideas and when I track down the master I am going to try and implement them. If I can't find them I will re-record this and work them in. Thanks again for listening and leaving a comment.

on Liftoff RedZone Productions by Pippa777

Very creative, I have to agree with Mr Wolf that this seems a bit like a huge intro into something big. If you made a sister song called say "Flight to ---(something)--- that was high energy. And then a Chillout piece called (I don't know... )"Taking it all in", and then a final mad scramble piece called "The journey home" You would have a very nice 4 part electronic suite that would mirror the old formats of classical suites.
Just an idea ;-)
Steve

Pippa777 replied 9th Sep 2013 - 12 years ago

Thankyou for the kind words :)

I dont think I could creatively stand making 4 pieces all the same tho, I would get too bored of it. This was more a one off, huge intro or not haha

on Faded by Cestevens1783

Super sweet sound. I love the quiet vocals on this one, chilled and served like a slightly almost frozen vodka.

Cestevens1783 replied 5th Sep 2013 - 12 years ago

Haha, love the description, and thank you for listening! Much appreciated.

on Lies ft Kae Furious and KCentric by SeriouslyJoking

Most interesting chord structures in the first 45 seconds, then I agree with Danke the tune lifts off at the :45 mark. love the bass and the chords and the vox here. With your permission I might want to tinker with this one as I have an idea for a drum sound that will kick this tune even higher, what is the B.P.M.?
Steve

SeriouslyJoking replied 4th Sep 2013 - 12 years ago

Hi Steve - please do!
The bpm is 84 (but I originally went down from 130bpm somehow...nothing really worked and this is what was left of it.)
I can do a version without drums also if it helps.

Thanks!

on Detroit Demeanor ft Buddahmann and Silverback by SeriouslyJoking

It's interesting, and you are right the vocals do fit, I would like to see a kick-ass beat (maybe syncopated?) over the jangly synths and piano stabs. Keep at it your on to something here.
Steve

SeriouslyJoking replied 3rd Sep 2013 - 12 years ago

Finally a comment!! Thank you Steve! =D
The drums are always really tricky for me, I almost never manage to make my own drums, it just doesn't work. So I'm going to seek some other drumloops to fit in then.

Maybe some changes in the melody also, it gets really boring after a short listen...

(Or then I'll leave this as it is - it's just one of those failures. Nobody is commenting which means it's probably no good. Ha ha ...moving on...)
Thank YOU for listening and commenting!

on The Human Zone by Planetjazzbass

You know, I Instead of listening to this as an analytical musician, I just let the right side of my brain let the sounds just wash over me and enjoy the ride. great work!

on Whatcha Wanna Do Now feat Patricia Edwards by doudei

Awesome tune, you nailed this one. I agree with static, that screech at 2:36 was cool, and it echoed out. nice work.!

doudei replied 2nd Sep 2013 - 12 years ago

thanks a lot crucethus, happy to hear you enjoyed it! :)

on Spivkurl 24K by Spivkurl

Very good Spiv, you know the more I listen to your vocal delivery style, in some ways it reminds me of John Fox who fronted Ultravox! before Midge Ure, then he did this amazing solo album called Metamatic. you should definitely check it out. He is Gary Numans Inspiration.

Spivkurl replied 31st Aug 2013 - 12 years ago

Hey, after listening to that video I'm honoured at the comparison! Never this before. Gary Numan is very cool, and I see the similarities. Thanks for taking a listen! I dropped a new mix of this song today, with some subtle adjustments.

Your vocal production absolutely makes this track work!.

on VIIXIIV by Audiotism

very chill and liquidly refreshing. Love the sub bass. good work!

Audiotism replied 1st Sep 2013 - 12 years ago

The idea was something like liquid dubstep, so you used liquid and the sub could remind you of dubstep. So overall i think i succeed at some point haha. Thanks for you time, listen and comment!

on Ttribal Reason by edzwood

Great work, awesome use of dissonance and glitch and chain filtering. The tribal vocals were spot on and the main theme kept you balanced throughout the track when you deviated with a new idea. great job!

edzwood replied 29th Aug 2013 - 12 years ago

THANKS it's great when folks feel it and it's obvious you do.

on Spivkurl FLAMING remix by JeffBock

Awesome remix of this! It's like you captured the sound of Sheffield UK 1978 and turned it on it's head! Faved

JeffBock replied 29th Aug 2013 - 12 years ago

Hey thanks crucethus! I'm not sure i know the sound of Sheffield in 1978 but i remember the sound of Manchester in the early 80's : Madchester!

on May You Never ft 12string by Darkreine

Beautiful song. I loved your voice on this. Reminds me if you combined José Feliciano and Gordon Lightfoot. Faved for sure!

Ciao,

on The Redi Mindtrick by Evisma

Very good song, I get that the intro is a movement in itself leading to the 2nd movement. what I would love to hear is a better separation of instruments in the mix (larger stereo field) That would make it a bit more interesting. But it's a brilliant piece of music. well done!

Evisma replied 29th Aug 2013 - 12 years ago

Thank you much. Mixing is an issue for me, and that is most of the criticism I get from what I've put on here. The honest feedback is what I want, so when something sucks, I'll know. Thanks again for the listen and the feedback.

on African rage by STORMTrooperr

Very nice tune, I love the beat and the vibe and the instrumentation. I think you need to watch your dynamic compression just small a bit. I can hear in the small passages the gain exchange is drastic to the ear and when the beat is full on if muffles the sound a bit. I have had some trouble with that in the past myself. But overall a great tune!

STORMTrooperr replied 25th Aug 2013 - 12 years ago

i'm glad you love the song and thank for your advice i appreciate and i will work on that problem
