Description : (Edit) Be sure to check out the original!.
This is currently incomplete. I started this a while back and I got to thinking that I'd like others to rap (or sing) on it. Kinda like an unofficial looperman vocal squad collab or somethin. The version you hear now is 3:00, but I only rap for a minute and a half of that (from like 0:30 to 2:00, approx). The whole mix I did is 4:38.
So I'm thinkin there's room for 2 others (1 rapper & 1 singer or 2 other rappers). Hit me with a message if you'd like to do somethin on it and I'll email you the whole mix.
As for the song, I just went crazy for the beat and so I just hadta do something with it. The rmx is pretty basic and involved tempo tweeking, four channels with multiple channel isolated fades throughout on all, effects, and mastering effects. The vox were kept basic because I wanted to kinda give it a timeless vibe (not of either skool, really). The effects I added to them is a direct reflection of DJ Screw's style of mixin tracks (though mine is way more basic and doesn't really involve the beats). I was also wanting to evolve the P'Funk-esque feel I had tried on my remix of Sparque's Let's Go Dancin on the vocals I added to it later. Going high and going low (with some additional effects thrown on to both). Off for now. Lates mates!

This is not your typical rap track. I like the backing track and the effected vocals are very unique. I see you say it isn't complete yet. Are you planning on doing anything with it soon?

Another great track

All The Best

Yeah, this was somethin I was playin with ages ago. I was kinda wantin others to play with it, but that hasn't really happened so I might go back n tweak/extend the vox I added (just so it can be more finished, ya know?). Glad ya dug it. Later on!

Hells yeah, I remember when CN useta do that. It's a shame that I don't have that channel anymore (basic cable here only has 20+ chans and CN is on 59). All the music is thanks to Mouko (check out the original if ya haven't already), I just did the vox and effects on the vox (along with some slight mixing of the original). Glad ya dug it. Later on!

DonnieVyros replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
Prech that mate. As for the FX, man, I kinda need 'em because my vox would sound like rubbish otherwise.
As for where I went, not there just yet, and I'm beginnin to think that I aint ever gonna get there (not one person has stepped up to say that they'd like to flow on this w/me).
As for the email, I think I mentioned somethin about it to ya somewhere on here. Later on!

Loving the vox with the neutered chipmunk and the Issac Hayes sounds stacked on top of each other. I never thought you would do rap, but then again your the Donny Vyros, what the hell are you going to do next?

Great track!

Hahaha,
Thanks for the chuckle, brother. Yeah, I rap, nothing serious, but it was somethin I wanted to try my hand at too.
As for what I'd do next, I dunno- Country maybe? Try to compose something truly Classical? Ooh wait, I know, make some kinda boy/girl band Pop-type song, yeah! Haha. Really? Hmm, R&B maybe. That'd be the next logical step I'm thinkin. Later on mate!

Cool effects and sounds, builds plenty of imagery as I listen. like the dark vox rap and beats. Sounds great-it would be way cool to hear former 22catch laying something on this as well, but plays fine as is. Kudos man!

DonnieVyros replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
Thanks Kook, I too am keener of the bassier vox than I am the high one. Catch's good, but I dunno if he'd wanna mess with this, speaking style-wise. Glad ya enjoyed. L&R!

Thanks brah. I'm thinkin that if there are other rappers on this I'll do something different for each of 'em. Adding different effects to each. Later on matey!

I was just telling Elaine, this is my Fav! song on looperman.

lol...

A bit much on the vocals, but I still like it! Not DJ screw just yet... that guy is unimaginably listenable and awesome... Agreed tho..

I would blast somebody witha raw banana to this track, the whole time screaming DIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!

I like your rendition, but the original is still in my mind...

I suppose... I would do vocals, but... I can't rap very well.. I would just cuss a lot and rip off X-Raided...

DonnieVyros replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
I hear ya (and agree). And I was lucky enough to be able to score this before the site added the 'enable download' choice ages ago. Can't recall when I started mixing this, but I remember that once the vox were laid I wanted others to rap on it too. As for Screw, I wasn't trying to directly immitate him, but was just thinkin of his style and tried to take it in a similar Funky direction. As for rap, it's like music production and just takes practice (and pointers). It's kinda hard, but given enough time you'd be surprized at what you can do. As for the comparison, I'd have to agree in the remix's unfinished state. Though all I ever try to do with my basic remixes is to make it just as cool as the original (however modified and stretched out). Glad ya dug it. L&R!

Very cool start to this. Has a resident evil soundtrack type of sound to it. Wild vocal FX. I don't really care for rap and almost didn't listen to this. I'm glad I did. Very neat. But also very amusing.

DonnieVyros replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
Thanks, vocally I try to be a jester (like you do sometimes too). And even when I'm being semi-serious I try to joke about something (like how I didn't know what held the Snake on the flag- kinda serving as the Yuppie's guide to their culture). As for Rap, I feel you. There's some I like, some I don't, but yer always in good hands with me because I'm an insane outsider there. L&R!

Thanks Gizza,
The downside to the this one is that back then I didn't know that I could save the different effects pre-sets I had used so when I tried to edit a part near the butt-end of the vocals it gave me such a hard time trying to emulate the FX used on the others that I just gave up and reverted back to what I had recorded before.
Songwise, I didn't really want to change it too much. Just slow it down and add effects that would make is sound spaced-out (like being played outside in an alley as the dirty deeds are done and the car screeches away).
Lyrically, they kind of don't fit, but I wanted to make it a story about friendship and how when the ##### hits the fan you've always got that to fall back and count on (with true friends, atleast). So it's kinda like a mix between the films Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels with Menace 2 Society. Glad ya dug it, L&R!

Description : The track is an infuse of Afro and Dance-Pop.
I used my voice to create an AI version voice.
The track is only produced by me (NO SUNO).
It has a futuristic lead, drums-samples and Afro chords.
All sounds are made by me from scratch.
You can listen the song also on digital platforms.

I thought about how interesting these chords would be for Glitch Hop
