Description : I did this track with Cubase 6.5, mainly the Halion and Groove Agent plugin. The more I use both plugins the better I like them. I also added an acapella by KBB0. This tune goes into the meditative instrumental Hip Hop genre, which I like a lot because of its minimalistic and repetitive but also playful approach to music. I'm still playing around with the final mix but only getting slight improvements if any. I hope this sounds ok.

If you have time take a listen and give Pillow some feedback.
Liked the energy in this simple (yet not boring) track.
Good choice of sounds and well mixed.
The bass line is a bit "obsessive" with the two notes repeated over-and-over-again, but this is not a bad thing: it makes the song "darker" and I think this was your intention.
Beautiful trumpet solo.
Overall, I song I liked.
Ciao, Domenico

Thank you for listening and commenting on this track! I think it sums up nicely what this song is all about and it also confirms my opinion that sometimes less is just more. I’m glad you liked it. Thx und Servus
Yo. Me back yet again. I started up a forum thread about favourite ever tracks on Looperman and I chose this track as one of my favourites. I thought you'd want to know.
Maybe people will come check this out a bit more because of my choice. Or maybe they won't! It really does deserve more plays and feedback. Will anyone other than me ever get round to commenting on it?
Why not let us know your top Looperman tracks. Post them on that same thread. There’s some serious quality there and I’ve learned about lots of great tracks I’d never heard of before.
"This means a lot to me and reading it has just made my day."
No problem, man. You deserve it. We all need some appreciation for the music we make and things we do (me included) and it's good to just hear what someone else thought, even if it's critical (which can help you improve).
I write lots of very long reviews of people's stuff and always try to listen closely and give time references for what I'm talking about so they can understand what I am saying.
Reason is awesome. If you need synths, drums, loads of FX that work beautifully, think about adding it. But all DAWs these days are great. We're spoilt for choice! No excuses not to make cool music. Please make some more and upload it here...
Thank you very much for listening and writing such a detailed and affirmative review. This means a lot to me and reading it has just made my day. To know that some people bother to listen to a track closely and also to give feedback gives me a lot of motivation to keep uploading tracks.
I also run Cubase since version 1 and updated it to version 6.5. I like Cubase a lot and I wouldn’t swap it for any other program at the moment. I’ve also used Reason alongside Cubase, but I’ve never really gotten the hang of it. I realise though that there is a lot of potential in it.
Will defenitely check out your tracks. I could only get a glimpse of your music before I was writing this. But it sounds very promising. I’m looking forward to listen to it more and pay the attention to it that it deserves.
Wicked. Meant to review this a few days ago, thought I'd made it a favourite but hadn't. So had to go searching for it again. Found it eventually.
Screw the other 20 people who have listened to this and not commented. This is such an awesome chill groove with such a cool vibe. Love that bass, the electric piano lead. Then there's that second lead brass instrument, with its menacing little melody
2:16 cool little stutter.
This is almost perfect, except for the vocal. I will download it and listen more.
Well produced, cool drums. Couldn't ask for more.
That vocal is OK, just not as good as the rest. Doesn't give it much of a lift when it comes in. I like the idea of having the vocal there, just think you could find something better to use.
Excellent work.

Will check more of your tracks. Take care.

Description : Headphones are recommended for a more immersive experience :P - - - A weary American soldier is walking through the remains of what used to be a small town in the middle east, only to rediscover the horrible reality that sometimes war can affect even the ones who have no part in it.

This is my first attempt at creating a virtual environment to tell a story and convey emotion. Hope you enjoy! Comments are welcome!
Description : the other end of the scale from me, yep people, this is a ballad. its for all the people who have lost somebody long before their time was due,
i used my experience of tragic loss and how i hid my mental health issues that stemmed from it while writing it, its repetitive but has fresh verses
its to Matthias music Du Bist Nicht Mehr Hier almost the same title, He has suffered too that's why he wrote the music and dedicated it to his brother. i hope i have done it justice
Description : This track contains several loops, all of them are from looperman artists - listed below. I don't know if "ambient" fits well for it, but i get most loops from that category. :)
Inspired by the Final Fantasy series and my ex girlfriend. Hope you will enjoy it (not my ex! :D). As always, free to use for a song, any opinions-critics welcomed... UPDATE 2015.10.24.: improved audio quality - lower lows, higher highs. Now in 256kbps!
Description : Working with DarkKZ by Beatskillz, Synthmaster 2.9, Waves Bass Fingers, Microtonic drum synth, Izotope nectar 3 elements, Ozone 8 Elements & several other plugings I'm trying for the first time. The vocal samples are from Ghosthack, LANDR & Sampleswap. Hope you like it. Cheers.
Post script: The word "Ambient" has come up several times in the comment section for this, so I switched the genre to that. Thanks for the input. I really appreciate it.
Description : Ambient, psychedelic chill out rock or something or rather. Lyrics, vocals, guitars and keyboards myself. One drum loop used (free Loopmasters ambient pack). If you want a bit of a back story on the words check the lyric page.
Description : I made this with Garageband and was inspired by Anime music, such as Naruto. And if you noticed one little part is very similar to one of the melodies.
Description : Depression and sadness can sometimes serve as motivation for creativity as in the case of this track. A few months back I went through a period of loosing a few friends and co-workers. Attended a few funerals and as a result found myself reflecting on life. One night I had the urge to try to transfer my feelings into music and this is what came out. Some baratone guitar accompanied by synth and accapella.
Final EDIT: Further tweaking on levels and a slight change up in the timimg of the choir section.
Description : Hello,
this is a track between composition and cover.
Amandine (Sova Berry or Dine on soundcloud) made a cover of the a cappella "Song of Sophia" by Dead Can Dance.
I liked it very much, so i decided to make an instrumental with her vocals.
Hope you'll like it and if you want to comment, you are welcome, whatever you think.
Bye
Description : Ambient, Chill Out, Cinematic .... I´m not sure ... Take your headphones. Close your eyes. Start the engines and have a ride into the unknown. A spacy little trip from somewhere into anywhere outside. - U_P_D_A_T_E - I made a video to this track. So you can enjoy now the flight with open eys. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ON4u0bRZJ4k

Not a particular Cubase fan, just have a lot of old work in there which I need to get round to finishing so I'm kind of locked in.
Never really used Groove Agent, Halion a bit a long time ago. Probably got similar things in Reason but maybe I'll give GA more of a try.
Padshop is a pretty cool synth and I keep forgetting to use it more.
Again, well done with this cool bit of meditative hip hop.
