Description : Back with an update of this song- 8 June 2014. Took to heart a lot of the helpful comments I got on the earlier version, and I think the ideas helped a lot. This contains some incidental guitar work, which I'd like to dedicate to a friend who is no longer with us. (They won't get away with this!) Added some things and removed others, toned down the automation and effects slightly. It's a little longer now too. Hope you all enjoy listening! Oh yeah, BTW all the vocals are mine including the melodic parts, since some people asked.-----

New moon new song, that didn't take too long. Did this over the last few days. I went into this with some urges to fuse electro house with classic rock, so I'll call it fusion. Played some improv on my Baldwin Fanfare organ. Take what you want from it, and compost the rest. You can get the new Spivkurl album "Charting The Anomaly," which includes this track at the We Are... Records Capitalist Market found here: http://www.wearerecords.com/capitalistmarket.html

Hey Spiv nice work here. I haven't heard the original version but this is great! Nice fusion of genres to give this a really unique sound. Congrats! Dan

Spivkurl replied 25th Aug 2014 - 10 years ago

Thank you Dan! I am thankful for your kind words! Glad you could hear and enjoy the fusion in this song. Hope you are well. I will be by your page in a moment!

You're too kind! I love it when someone comments on an unfeatured track, it means they're digging deeper than usual. Thanks for the support!

squelching goodness...awesome production and arrangement..very tight work!..one of my faves from you bro...this is solid and wicked!!

Spivkurl replied 12th Jun 2014 - 10 years ago

Thanks much my friend! Put a lot of my self into this track, so it means a lot when someone can get into it! I might be able to make it better, but I don't know if it would be as real and current. I appreciate you stopping by!

StaticNomad 9th Jun 2014 01:46 - 10 years ago

Thanks for the good reply.

No, didn't really hear The Doors early on and still don't. Not to worry. I often have aims when making a track, fail to achieve them but then come up with a lot of things I never imagined. Most of the time, actually.

I can hear some definite differences here though I won't only point out differences.

Lead intro synth takes us right in to some good stuff. It's a catchy opening theme.

0:45 new gentle synth playing a dreamy type of melody that goes well with the sweepy pad.

1:30 is that start of the (wah) guitar? If not, I like it anyway.

2:00 melodic vocals sound good here. "Slip away" line sounds good. Bit of vocoding maybe?

2:37 odd bar division break is cool. I think I struggle to get those irregular length breaks right.

3:23 guitar sounds great. Nice and sparse arrangement there but think I might prefer the squelch bass to have some reverb as the two instruments seem not to be playing together, sonically speaking. Guitar is quite distant.

No, don't think I hear the audible pop in this version.

"I wouldn't get dickish about something like an audio pop"

One guy on here really did (basically said his tracks sound exactly as he wants and it's wrong to criticise or make suggestions unless it's specifically asked for)and another female was extremely rude on that subject after extensive, repeated explanation on how to remove the pops. They're off my list for track reviewing forever for just too much rudeness and arrogance (not that I've told them).
Naked squelch bass ending I'm not so keen on. Not terrible, just a bit awkward and sort of grooveless.

But it's still a cool track. And I mean cool as it has a certain leftfield disco club chic to it. Thanks for the good reply.

Spivkurl replied 12th Jun 2014 - 10 years ago

Thanks for giving your opinions on the new version my friend! I'm thinking that if I had really wanted to channel Ray Manzarek, I should have used my Gibson Organ, and not the Baldwin.... oh well, live and learn. I like that intro synth too, it seems to really focus the house side of things. Ha ha, the :45 "synth" is actually me on guitar, and I didn't mean to laugh. I guess I must've played with good timing if you thought it was MIDI. Yep 1:30 is the wah guitar, which comes back for second verse... though both parts were played differently, and not edited. 2:00, I honestly don't recall, but I think there was like 6-8 different effects used to get the tone on that vocal part. Glad you like the breaks, I think they turned out good too, I just wanted them short so as not to lose the flow. I meant for the guitar to be a little distant, and I see what you mean about that squelch bass, though I must admit I rarely use reverb on a bass sound. As far as the ending goes, it's kind of meant to be crossfaded with another track that compliments the bass parts, so I get what you mean. I really appreciate all your efforts on my tracks, and on Looperman in general! Thank you!

Orlando51 8th Jun 2014 18:40 - 10 years ago

Nice improvement, mate...you always add something new which is very welcoming habit.:)

Cheers_____Orlando

Spivkurl replied 12th Jun 2014 - 10 years ago

Thanks friend! I think this is more what I had in mind when starting the track, and it took some comments here on Looperman to help me feel capable to improve on it. I appreciate you listening to the new version! Take care!

Modnex 8th Jun 2014 17:44 - 10 years ago

I'm really liking this one spiv! I love the groovy feel you get from the very start, was nodding my head the entire time. I like the vocals that come in a bit later it fits perfectly with the beat you have created. Faving this one, thanks for the listen and entertainment!

Spivkurl replied 12th Jun 2014 - 10 years ago

Thanks friend for your supportive comments! Electro house and classic rock are both commonly focused on groove, so I'm glad that's what you hear in this connection. I think I couldn've gotten better timing in the earlier vocals, but I'm happy with it all the same. Glad you thought the timing was good later on though. Appreciate the fave and listen!

RichieWinn 8th Jun 2014 16:34 - 10 years ago

Whenever I have logged on to Looperman and found you have posted a new track I can resist having a listen. I don't know if I'm qualified to comment at all as it's well out of my comfort zone but what I can say is I really like the sounds you make and the quality of your productions. This is no exception. Love the groove and dance feel. Great job.

Richie

Spivkurl replied 12th Jun 2014 - 10 years ago

Hey buddy! We don't see enough of you around hear lately, so I'm honored by your listen! Have to wonder about the fruedian slip - "i CAN resist having a listen." Not worried about it though, as you did listen... heh! Makes me happy you found some enjoyment in this tune. I've been trying to stretch myself as an artist and use more of my instruments for real audio tracks. I think it makes a difference even though I'm no expert. Thanks again for the comment!

crucethus 7th Jun 2014 18:31 - 10 years ago

Awesome intro. Channelling Heaven 17 and the Norm at the same time. Like you are advancing the sound of Sheffield to modern times. The Pad is brilliant at 1:00 and I love the bass in this one. Vocals at 1:35 are scary effective. This is a solid track man. Suncopation at 2:40 is a nice touch. When you sing or speak your phrases I would suggest you slap echo the last word. I like the way this tune plays out. The vocals remind me a bit of green velvet.

Fav'd for sure

Spivkurl replied 10th Jun 2014 - 10 years ago

Hey buddy! I've only heard of the artists you mentioned, but not really heard them. I appreciate the comparison though! Also not sure what the signature sound of Sheffield would be, ao can't comment there... heh. People seem to get into the pads, and that makes me happy. I'm pretty proud of the bass in this one, especially the sub side of things, so thank you for the compliment! I appreciate that you liked the spoken word parts. I'm unsure if the syncopation is still there in the new version or not, as it could have been a side effect of the effects I was using...don't know. I took your advice on effecting the vocals, I hope you think I did well. Would love to hear your reaction to the new one. I'm enjoying the Green Velvet track you linked me to! Definitely has some similarities to what I've been working at. I really appreciate your good comments! Thanks for the fave!

soundhound 4th Jun 2014 18:01 - 10 years ago

Has a solid bounce to it, lots of interesting things going on...
Popin mix has what it takes...simplicity...

Nicely done...

Peace ....TG

Spivkurl replied 8th Jun 2014 - 10 years ago

Thanks much my friend! It's nice of you to stop by to listen and comment! I think the new version is a lot better, and has more to offer. Hope you are well!

StaticNomad 4th Jun 2014 17:53 - 10 years ago

Word up, Spiv.

This is another that ain't too wonky and twisted so I like it.

First surprise and mild complaint relates to this:

"fuse electro house with classic rock"

I'm totally not hearing the classic rock!

0:15 the organ's a bit distorted and guitar-like but that doesn't make it classic rock, for me.

Anyway, some killer squelchy, farty bass.

1:01 beautiful pad does a really nice job and puts a different complexion on the whole thing. Not the kind of sound I expect from you.

1:30 cool little break and distinctive cos it's so short. Almost awkward and probably confusing for dancers.

Spoken word works pretty well. Sort of dreamy dance track with you as the guru/MC guiding us through a far out world.

Decent length track - just about right.

Are those more melodic vocals in there yours too eg on 2:00?

3:27 there's an audio pop you could probably fix. I almost always point these things out in people's tracks when I spot them. One guy on here really didn't like that but I don't expect you to be a dick about it.

Good work!

Spivkurl replied 8th Jun 2014 - 10 years ago

Hey buddy, thanks for listening! Your review and suggestions helped me improve the song, and I'm interested to hear your views on the new version. I took the fact that you didn't hear the classic rock in this to heart, and really I realized that before and felt it wasn't finished to the point I wanted. I guess with the distorted organ at the beginning I was going for a Doors type of vibe, though I realize that's not definitive as far as classic rock goes. The squelchy bass was fun and stuff, but I'm more fond of the underlying sub bass lines. I think I'm a little weak when it comes to pads usually, I like kind of old school simple pads usually but there is so much you can do with new synths that I'm moving on slowly. I'm glad you thought the short breaks in the song were worthwhile, it was kind of fun putting those in. I think the spoken word parts are more fleshed out in the new version. It's slightly longer now, and I'm a little happier with the length this way. Yep the melodic vocals are me... just trying something different. I wasn't sure if I heard the pop you were talking about, but I definitely don't hear it in the new version. It may have been an automation mistake, and much of that has been scrapped or redone in the new one. Sorted a bad loop that kind of popped or cut off as well. I wouldn't get dickish about something like an audio pop... heh. Thanks very much for your strong review, I appreciate it!

BigPete 4th Jun 2014 01:57 - 10 years ago

always entertaining and creative, again I enjoyed very much my journey in your universe. Still debating if you are an alien or not.

Spivkurl replied 8th Jun 2014 - 10 years ago

Hey, Pete! So cool to see you stop in! You always seem to come out of nowhere, and it's always a pleasant surprise! If it makes you feel better, I suspect I'm an alien sometimes too... we'll probably never know for sure. Thank you so much for taking a listen, it means a lot to me! I have changed the song pretty drastically since you heard it, and would love to hear your impressions. Hope you are well! Thanks again!

ValveDriver 4th Jun 2014 01:26 - 10 years ago

As someone who likes to mix genres, I especially like this one. It definitely has a late 70's early 80's post disco feel.
The organ. Yes! I've often said there isn't enough organ work anymore. As an organ enthusiast, I love it! You did get a sweet sound on it too. It's got a very rich distortion without drowning out that signature organ sound. I've heard some distorted to the point where they just sounded like another guitar. This one toes the line, but still retains that sweet, sweet organ love! (That sounded a lot dirtier than I meant for it to.)
I really like the spoken word style vocals. It's definitely a more subdued approach than we're used to from you. I think your vocal endeavors are panning out. To be honest, I'd love to hear your take on a cover of something by The Cramps.
Nice work, man.
Take care.
Aaron

Spivkurl replied 8th Jun 2014 - 10 years ago

Hey what's up? Thanks for having a listen and leaving your always helpful and enjoyable comments! It's nice to know there are others who are into organs like me. I can't really resist keyboard instruments when I find them, and organs are definitely my favorite. I like the Fanfare organ because it has so many options to shape the sound. I can now get a good sounding recording out of the headphone output by sending it into my direct box. Much easier than micing the speakers, and has less of that old amplifier/speaker noise. I don't quite remember what I got that overdrive sound with, but I like it. With the organ I was going for a little bit of a Doors feel, and I think that leads into the spoken word parts well. Organ love, can't go wrong with that dirty or not! I think I've been trying to outlet my anger and aggression in other ways, thus leaving my art more open to different vibes. Thanks for the support on my vocals! To be honest, I've barely listened to The Cramps ever, but I should probably take a listen now. I've made some big changes to this song since you listened, I hope you like it still. I appreciate your review!

Thanks buddy! I appreciate you taking a listen! I've changed this for version two fairly heavily, so if you feel like listening again, I'd love to hear your opinions! Hope all is well, thanks again!

Mosaic 3rd Jun 2014 05:42 - 10 years ago

Hey Friend

wow what fun feeling to this piece, agree a mixture of genre's, but all working so nice together as one track, to be honest this sounds like it should be on radio, has that vibe to it, again nice use of the vocals mate, you getting so good with your vocals now, more clear sounding with less effects on them, which I guess gives you more scope to use in different genre's...Totally love the listen here friend...Fav'd...Peace n MUCH Respect Pat...Mosaic...

Spivkurl replied 3rd Jun 2014 - 10 years ago

Thanks very much for all the supportive comments! Funny you say it should be on the radio. I can't imagine what kind of station would play something like this...heh. I'm having fun doing vocals lately, and it's getting easier for me to get good recording of pretty much anything. The vocals in the middle are pretty heavily effected though. Thanks for the comment and fave!

djtheobserver01 2nd Jun 2014 14:30 - 10 years ago

Yo spivkurl !

its a very hypnotic track .
when you in it ,you cant get out ...
love the trancy synths and your vocals fits very good !

good job spiv !
greetzzz

Spivkurl replied 8th Jun 2014 - 10 years ago

Hey friend, thank you very much for listening! I'd love to hear your thoughts on the new version up today, I think I filled in the gaps that were there. I appreciate your comments!

Diskonnect 1st Jun 2014 15:32 - 10 years ago

Another cool track my friend, almost sounds a bit disco in places! Love the sounds in this and killer bassline too! Love it at 2:00 when it goes into the next part, the little vocal snippets work really well, good vocals by you also! Enjoyed this one! :)

Spivkurl replied 1st Jun 2014 - 10 years ago

I'm getting the feeling I'm in a disco mood, which is a little strange to say the least... wait until you hear the mix i just sent you... heh. The bass was mixed between one mid range sound and a sub bass made from analog waveforms, I kind of like the combination. All the vocals in this are me, just trying to stretch myself at the expense of appearing foolish. I hope this song will get better soon, I'm just back in collab mode, so, ya know... Thanks for the review!

theHumps 31st May 2014 15:22 - 10 years ago

I hadn't heard of the word seplicate so I looked it up on the dictionary app and it couldn't find the word. So you are creating new words to match your unique style of music, that's cool, lol.

I am not up on all the genre differences when it comes to electronic music so it sounds like another cool Spivkurl track that is a bit more subdued than some of your recent tracks. A little more relaxed approach to the vocals and they do sound good.

Well done my friend, enjoyed the track quite a bit!

Wayne

Spivkurl replied 1st Jun 2014 - 10 years ago

Hey friend! Thanks for taking a listen! Yep, I couldn't find the word either, so I assume it's new. Pretty much defined within the song, but I don't know if it's clear. Kind of a dual meaning so far, firstly the saving and distrubution of genetic material through cloning or seperating parts of things (like suckers or root stock), secondly the free distribution of ideas and creations with the intention of molding the future with focus. I was trying to be a little more mellow with this track, especially on the vocals. It was giving me lots of CPU and software troubles while mixing, so we'll see how the next version ends up. Appreciate you leaving a comment!

surya94 29th May 2014 18:15 - 10 years ago

how do u manage to make such synths and sounds...
Everytime u come up with something new and awesome...
Too good

Spivkurl replied 31st May 2014 - 10 years ago

Your too kind! I love sound design, so I guess that's my secret... heh. I'm proud of the organ parts, especially in the intro, pretty much the best distorted organ tone I've gotten to date. I'm hoping to improve this song soon, but they're doing construction by my house and I don't want that noise in my recordings. Thanks much for stopping in!

FreeRadical 29th May 2014 14:56 - 10 years ago

Spivs having a run of tunes ending in "ate" huh? Like those squelchy synths, what is that sound? Love the way it sort of swaps from tech house to house. Nice touch with the vocals. It's a pretty complex track with lots of layers and switches that keep it interesting (not like my repetative drivel)
What i love about your stuff is you never know what you're going to get and this is a pretty complicated sounding piece. It must have taken you a while to put this together.
Good stuff.
