Great piece of house music here. This mixdown is superb, the vocals are superb and so is the instrumental. I could picture going for a night drive listening to this. Great work!
Great melodic house track very well constructed with a great vocal. Interesting to read the comments re genres. I tend to agree with bod, I don't think about genre when I'm working on something. I like it just to evolve and go where it goes. Having said that I tend to use loops for drums so that initial choice tends to define things often. Anyway, nice track.
I know all about forcing oneself out of the "comfort zone" (I come from extreme metal and attempt to dabble in as much as possible).
As far as genre goes, I'm a music lover not a genre lover. Genre categorization is for critics, and non-musicians that need a way to organize their tastes. It's not a bad thing, it is just not the musicians' responsibility.
I would be wary of being a "purist" with most things. And don't worry about trap in everything, pop absorbs the cool and makes it lame, so it will kill the cicada beat for you, I give it about a year, and the genre another 3 or 4 for the "purists" :)
And, great mix. Nothing wrong with "4 on the floor" if it sounds good. Nice bass and pluck choices as well. The hats are a bit wet on the reverb, but it seems to fit.
Also, if you want to "break the mold," try some 7th and 9th chord substitutions, instead of open position and bar chords (generally speaking), to spice up the harmony (just a thought).
Elvis was a purist, James Brown was a purist, and Jimi Hendrix was a purist. so it all depends on what context you put it in bro. Back then we knew who was on the lead guitar, who was on the bass, who was on the keys, and who played the drums.
Today that does not matter anymore because everything is a mashup. You called me a genre lover, thank you. The genres of yesteryear have survived like Motown. Motowns genre-based songs will have a very long top-shelf life. Mashups are not so lucky. Its not that I love genres. I mean the Beatles played in a specific genre. I just dont want a Deathcore-Gospel music song, I dont want that.
At the end of the day I want a chillout playlist to relax to with no rap. Radio stations to this very day depend on genres. I mean I dont think I would like Kanye West in a Green Day song. That would really suck for Green Day. thanks bro!
I gotta say you made an awesome tune. But as I was listening to this and hearing your punk background, I think you could mash in some punk to this tune and make an amazing cross-genre mix. I know Europe's metal scene has increasingly dipped its head toward EDM and electronica (Metalcore) but also adding in some roots of thrash and black metal. Genres are mixing because we are listening to such diverse music now (since it's easily available). The future music revolution that will usurp corporate pop will be the mixing of genres.
Thanks, my friend. I hear what you are saying. But I am not a masher. I am more of a purist whenever possible. I suppose mashing can be fun. But the old school in me will not allow me to mash.
But you bring up a very interesting topic of discussion that is probably worth a forum discussion about that. This seems to be the trend now with music. But lots of todays music is mashed up with trap. It was a tragedy in my opinion when they mashed up country with trap to make a few dollars.
But in todays music, we the people have the power which is why mashups will survive. You see! This is a great topic to discuss bro. With that said, thanks for the review. I have not ruled out the mashups altogether, but for now, I will not touch a mashup.
had me right outta the gate, and the vox just, well, soar. echo dimestop, the is a warm vibe to this that’s something special. i really dig your range of interests and what you invest in them, bro!
Wow Mr A, this is fly, was not expecting this, I like your crossover, no infact I love your crossover. So warm, easy to listen to, the repeated opening leads to a great female vocal you score a big A from me, along with a fav, love the synth in the background,. I've been working on a similar synth that I added some panning to so it plays across your headset left to right great job my friend

Description : Unofficial preview* of my upcoming first produced track named Therapy. Litterly a cut out of the track. Uploaded with first thought of letting it hear to a fellow Looperman member for a possible collab later on.
Comments are welcome tho!
About the preview, after the drop will start to another semi drop and with an harder more rawish main chorus part behind. Everything is as good as done now and being checked by demo listeners for response and feedback before getting a last hand at mixing&mastering.
Description : My first house song (on looperman). It's actually mix of progressive and dutch house. Hope you'll enjoy this! :) If you have time you can leave feedback, it's always appreciated!
Description : Ugly ass witch house beat that isn't technically a house beat. (The Drum Track is by LM's Danke.) The Track's based on an older beat of mine with the same name. This version's half as long & not as busy. The Synths are Synthmaster, Massive, Dark Keys & Creep Piano. And of course, It wouldn't be a Clickbait Cabaret beat without nine zillion FX plugins. Pretty sure all of them are on this beat.
Description : Funk House/Disco inspired by Daft Punk
No Samples used
Instruments:
Various vintage synths
Kontakt libraries: Ilya Efimov Telecaster for guitar, Session Horns Pro, Chris Hein Strings, NI Guitars
Vocals: Plogue Chipspeech & Alter Ego
Description : check out janimifsson for these vocals
learning how to do house
good vocal effects
terrible drums
couldnt find a melodic loop to fit the track
figured out the key
the harmony basically matches the melody
probably in some dorian scale or something so
have to learn about that
the drums are my weakest point
good at the start but awful after the beat drop
please comment any songs to listen to to learn drums in this style
any advice please comment
Description : Melodic Progressive House with the lyrics by Mr.Shammi (visit his account here for incredible nice acapellas!). The ref is in Melbourne-Bounce-Style.
Description : Update: So this was the looper tune that started it all for me on this site. Hard to believe it was Over 10 years ago. This tune carries the ethos I bring to music...interesting, always change the genre mid-flight and you won't see what's coming next. Also cool to see the early comments and who is still around as well. (#Feeling retro tonight) Orig: Trance-step tune that changes direction a few times
Description : EDM song with cliche "Animal" drop. Let me know if you would like the big kicks, claps, or drop synth. (only ones I can give out) Key of F# minor. Made with Ableton Live 9 Suite.
And I like the vocals. Thumbs up!

Awesome track, very poppy but definitely not in a bad way. Love the vocal btw.
Excellent production too, obviously!!

Well, the trick is to not be boxed or one-dimensional. But props for stopping by. I really appreciate that. Peace!
