Description : working on a more rock heavy metal crossover. I try to get it working. I got lots of insparation from here on LM, looking for any advice that would help me to get closer. I left the beat in the end open, so you can try it out. guit, synth or vox, etc....
Chords:
I B I D I E I F# I

If you have time take a listen and give BananaLu some feedback.
It is a very powerful song with the vocal part being the protagonist. You are right, it would be great if you could add guitar tracks and possibly some drum hits.
Excellent work BananaLu
Cheers, Anthony
Just wanted to follow up ur answer to my comment, I really appreciate the love, man. I think sometimes, when we experiment or go out of our comfort zone, we need a little wink and a nudge to keep going in that direction. The feedback I've received has done just that. I just finished the 3rd track for the Halloween drop, and it's towing the line between trap & Hip Hop/metal even more than the other 2. Whenever everything is done, I'll try and find a way to share it, so hopefully u can hear it. I also used a live bassline for part of the track, not something I do often, because I take pride in my basslines. But for a collaboration, that takes a backseat. Id love to have a real bassline to use. Very Much appreciate the love man.
im looking forward to listening to those tracks. i love crossover but that metal is like a consuming bitch. i started with heavy hip hop but these week i ended up consumed by something. i played my bass as heavy and my hands still bleeding. i think i left the realm of hip hop and i go full korn. love to hear your new ideas.
Na wenn du Lust und Laune hast, kannst du dir ja als Referenz fuer deine Saengerin, noch andere Songs unter Hello.mg-musikverlag.de anhoeren. Einfach scrollen bis du Manuela findest, *smile
vielen dank fuer den Link, erstmal congrats zu deinem August release fading echoes. Mir gefaellt euer Ansatz an internationalen Pop, von allem etwas aber immer im Kontext. Mir gefaellt vor allem Musiala, deine passiago secundo ist butterweich. respekt.
the Lu that so much grabbed me, that musical personality that he owns, i always said from our first meeting keep being you, so unique and original, i can be on your side always Lu i love a Banana too, you wear your heart on your sleeve BN gave a great review and i could only repeat that, its so cool to have you back sharing with us too, are you still gigging in Berlin bro?
thank you Paul, it means a lot to me. After i sat down with your track warriors of the beat. i got a bit sad and i felt pain inside me. i was overwhelmed with your honest lyrics and that was missing in my expression. i dont know how you can handle this, but everytime i get into my real me. it cost me allot of energy. thats why i keep this person locked. this recording was exhausting. but im happy that you cheer me up in my most vulnerable time. love from a banana
Hallo und schoenen Abend,
wie die anderen schon sagten, seltsam, aber gut smile. Auch du hast recht, in dem du erwaehnt hast, dass Mom eine sehr starke Vertreterin dieses Genre ist. BadNode hat ja auch schon geschrieben, dass eine kleine Soloeinlage diesen Song noch interessanter machen wuerde, als er schon ist. Ich kann also allem gesagten hier nur zustimmen und finde nichts zu noergeln an deinem Lied. Smile. Toll gemacht
Liebe Guesse Manuela
vielen lieben dank Manuela, ich finde Rita ist wie eine lebende Jukebox, sie ist sehr versatile im Stil und ueberrascht immer mit ihren Sounds. Ich danke die sehr das du dir die Zeit nimmst und es braucht definitiv einen guitarristen, was mehr tiefe in dieses Projekt bringt. Eines wollte ich dir sagen, ich benutze grade euren Track verborgene Traenen als Referenz, um meiner Sangerin zu zeigen was meine Vorstellungen sind. :) Liebe Gruesse von einer Banana
Banana, first off this is fantastic! So unique, you had me with that opener and then the beat is just relentless! Also very impressed with your vocals, both technique and quality and treatment of them. Your mix is really nice and clean as well.. I think one thing my ears were expecting to hear on this after that little break at 1:55 was a little wailing, high-end guitar solo/embellishment that maybe introduces a new phrase on top of the the rhythm you introduce. Just a suggestion.. I think what you've got here is super solid and stands on it's own merits and I'm excited to hear where you take this one! Also checked out dusty's version, and those bars are nice! I love what dusty did with it, and could definitely hear more of them on this track if the inspiration hits them. Great stuff, thanks for sharing!
peace, -._.-

thank you badnode for giving me this huge feedback, it made my day. i love those bars from dusty and it would be an honour for me if we can work something out. that beat need def a guitar solo and you are absolutely right, but i know my strengths are not in lead guitar. can you play the guitar?love from a banana
And so the sudden metal trend continues lol. Im not complaining, cuz thats awesome. But it just came out of nowhere, myself included. Even crazier, alot of what im hearing is pretty good! And yours is even better than that. Ive decided to make the Halloween release im working on feature shredding guitar in every song, and so far, the two tracks Ive done for it turned out great. I hope this trend continues, nice work Mr. banana. - Aaron (The Less metal one lol)
hey aaron, i was kinda stunned when i got back here on Lm and listened to your ideas. it encouraged me to go back to this lil project. i work for some bands and tried to show them my ideas, they think im whack. Germanys music scene is always 5 years back. metal and rock is coming back in Hip Hop. im excited whats coming from you in Hallowen. would be nice for a collar. if you need real bass player for your production, just hit me up. love from a banana
I like this bro, I actually made a 8 bar verse that comes in at 2:11 or so just for fun, made it super quick I didnt spend a lot of time on it I didnt see an email on your profile or I would have just sent the stem there but heres a link to it if you want to check it out lol.
you made my day dustylyfe, i love your flow and how you go triplets on that bitch. you brought something to the table that this tracks needs, a more stable flow and i love how you interact with the beat. im honered. specially the ending is dope, you go down on pitch and it fits perfectly and makes room for another bar. would be nice if we can stay in contact. i got something in my mind. love from a banana

Description : One of those tracks you put your headphones on and your off too fantasy land for bit.Its all over the music spectrum on this track.*no foul language but does have lyrics that contain adult language
Description : Many of strangeness here ....
A link between two musical worlds quite different but united in this message of harmony.
"Silverpaw" (former Looperman) had in the depths of one of its hard drives, this arrangement that I made the past year: https://www.looperman.com/tracks/detail/120846
He decided to bring this theme, with a text and this voice ....
Very surreal but I really enjoyed ....
Description : I am quite open to all kind of music out there. This time I had some Church organ pipes lying around. With the help of 2nick8 and IMHO one of his best songs out there I put him into a big room and let the organs speak. Yes, maybe weird, maybe different, maybe 2nick8 will throw some egg against me ... I did it. What do you all think of it? (I changed the Genre to "Weird" in the meantime but "Experimental" would do also.
Description : I started out making this track a Vocal track, then it turned into a Chillout track but, now I'd say DubJazz, PsychoFunk or Weird. You be the Judge.
Description : Hey guys! Well, this is the first time I upload a song with my voice. I have to confess that this is not a style I usually sing. And, as an extra point, this is my first song in english. My native language is spanish, my english is not perfect, so sorry for mistakes (grammar, pronunciation, etc). Well, about lyrics, I explain the story on description of the instrumental version. If you want to read the story or hear the instrumental track, go here [ https://www.looperman.com/tracks/detail/146653 ]. This song was made on Magix Music Maker 2013 Premium and Adobe Audition 3.0. I hope you like it. Thanks! SUN & MOON... FIRE & ICE HEART... LIGHT & DARK FUSION...
Description : I haven't done anything in awhile. I got tired of screwing with this so just did some gain staging & panning & slapped it on here. It definitely sounds like something I would do.
Description : Again not sure of genre but it is kinda weird. Very much an experiment and Im not sure if it works but someone will let me know no doubt. If you can cope at all probably better with headphones. Pad sound is guitar treated with reverbs, crazy drums constructed from Akai kits and free jazz SFZ kit, sax samples and minimal synth line from arturia minifreak
Description : I found an old recording of me playing guitar on 8-track and decided to use it in a new track. All parts have been recorded using analogue equipment. I've then slowed down, sped up or reversed as I recorded them digitally. Then came the difficult part, attempting to piece it all together in ableton without everything being too out of time (there's no way to make it perfect).
Once I'd EQ'd out some of the loudest hiss, I started applying effects and eventually mastering it all.
What you get as a final product is a simple song executed in a very weird way. I'm quite happy with the disorienting effect. I hope you like it too :)
Excellent work BananaLu
