Description : Final update: Mahloo13 contributed to this song with an amazing mix and new master (I sadly had to compress it slightly due to looperman size limitations). If you've heard this tune before – listen again – I think it's worth it. Lots and lots of cred to Malu for his effort.
Update: Totally new vocal tracks by tacatta.
100615: Yesterday I came across a man who lost his angel. This really moved me and I just had to finish this track which suddenly found its reason. A couple of weeks ago i found an acapella by Eshar that now made its way into this song. Garageband, Strat, Eshar, fretless precision and some compassion

p.s. In case you wonder – yes, I'm a big fan of Pink Floyd.

I love to hear those rockbased tracks. And this one is realy well done, especialy the organ you used sounds realy cool for me. Your music make me think on the music of "Ayreon" (Arjen Anthony Lucassen) That is meant as a huge compliment. :)
Thank you so much for your very kind review. I had awesome help from my collaborators that made this song so much better than my original version. Again, thank you.
/pmk
Wow!I love what you have done with this!
It's really smooth and beautifully done.
Malu shows his genius with this mix.
Well done guys-It's a masterpiece.
And Elaine your voice really does speak to my soul!

Thank you very much. Malu and Tacatta really made the difference. In the new mix Eshar's voice pella got new life – and finally the song became complete. I am very pleased the result. Again, thank you for the very kind words and for sharing the story of Matthew.
/pmk
Well, it is easy to see why Malu is one of the best around when it comes to mixing and mastering. This is fabulous and definitely a song that Pink Floyd, or any band, would be proud of.
Thanks Bear. Malu made a big differnce with his skills and I am really pleased with the result. Jim's voice is so right for this one, finding Eshars pella was a fortunate thing.

I`M A BIG PINK FLOYD FAN AND I`LL BET THEY WOULD AGREE, THIS IS A GREAT TRACK,NICE LYRICS, TACATTA WAS A NICE TOUCH,I`VE USED LOOPS FROM TACATTA IN MY OWN PROJECTS, WELL DONE PEACE ZEK
Thank you very, very much. The song has been a work in progress for a year and now I'd say it's complete. Very satisfying indeed. Thank you again for the very kind words.

Hi,
thanks for giving me the heads up about the latest version of this track. It sounds fantastic certainly.
It's been an interesting musical journey, and even though we all started from different places the final destination is certainly one we can all be proud of, and it's a very fitting tribute to little Matthew.
A big jump in time, my friend .... Yes! really "Pink Floyd" in its purest form in the game, the intonation, lack can be a good guitar solo but it's fantastic ....
I am very surprised by the artistic quality of this track.
All my respect ....
Merci, votre mots est très apprÃÂciÃÂe.
And I'll pass them on to my collaborators who all were essential in bringing the track to that quality. I played all instruments but the drums (they were set by Malu) and wrote the lyrics – but it wasn't until Jim and Malu did their parts that the tune became what it now is. I am very proud of the outcome. Again, thanks.

A brilliant track. The vocals are absolutely fitting for this track Tocatta's vocals are ace and heart felt, Esher fits in nicley during the end. Well layed out and the melody and bridge is just an anthem sing along track, that could be easily played commercially. A very good attempt. I would push this track further mate! You've clearly worked really hard on this gem, well done really well done.
On the behalf of my collaborating friends and !, thank you for the very encouraging words, truly appreciated. The song took more than a year to complete and it's been a journey to what it is now. I am proud, pleased and thankful.
/pmk
Wow, Taccata, you're vocals are insane dude! Guitar, Kilk,awesome as always bro and Eshar just tops it off in such a sultry way! Thank you for blessing us all with this. Great great tune man! Huge fav! The loop is an exceptional place man, there is absolutely no place I would rather be. Thank you to everyone involved on this track for sharing it with us. It is a true example of the powers and wonders of collabs man!
Thank you so much for the kind words. This is a song that have evolved with the talent of collabortions – I used Eshars amazing poem and sung the lead vocals myself in the first version, when Tacatta added his voice the tune began to sound like I wanted it to.
But when Mahloo13 added his mixing skills I was amazed, it came out they way I didn't even know I wanted it to sound. Great collabs gives new visions.
/pmk
Thank you, ever so kindly. But I'd be wrong to take the cred for the voice this time, it's actually Jim that does the vocals. But I appreciate that you like my voice, and your support is making my confidence grow as a singer. The duet with Jim will happen. Some day.
/pmk
Ah Yes...I hear the Floyd influence...and that is always a very good thing...great job on this one Kikajon...love the guitar too....makes me want to dig out my floyd albums (think I have them all...including the early ones on vinyl).....Fav for sure,....Ed
Ed, I appreciate your kind words and I share your enthusiasm about Pink Floyd. The vinyls, from Ummagumma and Atom heart mother to Animals, have been passed on to my daughter – and she loves them too. Pretty amazing in my book.
/pmk
man!!this is really nice i like this alot!!great great tune!!a fav!!an i DL it so i could play it on my house system!!also a fan of pink floyd!!awsome work!!glad i stopped threw to hear somthing difrent!it was definitly worth it!!
Thank you very much for the nice review, I am excited that you like this tune, it's one those songs that evolves with the emotion and everything just comes together. Thanks again for the kind words.
/pmk
I had not heard this song yet. Unforgivable. Well, better late than never. Perfect everything. Symphonic rock in pure state. You are great. A really cool song. I will make a second listen, because songs like this are not made today. A luxury to have in Looperman.
Thank you very much Vicen for the most flattering review. The tune really came together when Jim sung it and I'm rather happy about the way it came out. Again, thanks. And your definately forgiven, my friend. :)
/pmk
Hahhah yeah I like your disclaimer about Pink Floyd. I grew up with their music and they are incredible even now after all the time they have been separated and the music industry is saturated with crappy music so it was a good audition being given the opportunity to listen to something like this again.
The guitar work and the vocals are totally awesome. I can't agree with some processing on the guitars as the different reverb settings make it seem as if they come from different songs and there are some leveling issues as well as the vocals get buried underneath the guitars here and there.
The snare needs a bigger reverb to blend it in the back a bit and the Bass definitely needs more compression to bring it out more.
Even so the quality is incredible and trust me what I've said above are subtle nuances that when touched can work wonders.
Hi Malu, and thank you for the insightful review. All your tips on how to improve the mix are welcome.
I'm really happy that you like this song, so I thought, would you like to have a go at the mix?
If so, mail me: transatlantic.experience@gmail.com

This track came together when I heard the moving story about matthew, a kid that unfortunately became an angel in the ground after a fire. Eshars poem and Jim's vocals made it one of my favourites.
/pmk
I love what you have done to improve this track!
It really has come together so beautifully.
The combination of the guitar and all the vocalists,Tacatta,Eshar and yourself is pure synergy.
It has been a long hard road putting the Matthew album together,with lots of heartache,tears,anger and frustration.
It has been such a hard project as it is so close to my heart and has totally drained me.
I have listened to the tracks thousands of times and I'm happy to say that I'm finally ready to let go and the album will be released on November 26.
I'm so thrilled to have you guys on it and can't wait to see what happens.
Thank you so much!You don't know what it means to me!
Much love

Wow!I am totally blown away by this.Beautiful,from start to finish.
I am so honored by your thoughts for Matthew.He was not my son,but the son of a family friend,but the pain,none the less,has been so hard to bare!
Thank you for this.You have touched my heart and I am so grateful to you for dedicating this track.Elaine is one of my best artists on this site,so it was really amazing that she featured in this.
I have written an album for Matthew which is almost complete and ready for release.I would love to include this track on the album,if I get your permission.
The proceeds are going to charity to help burn victims,but hopefully,we will get lots of exposure and may go places with this.
I have not written this album for financial success in the music industry,but to try help raise money for charity.Any recognition will be a bonus,and who knows what it could lead to?Let me know if I can include this on the album,and thank you so very much for caring.It is so appreciated!LLove.g.x
What can I say but I'd be very honored to do so. But Elaine have to give her permission. I can contact her if you wish.
I'd also like to redo the vocals in the beginning, I'm not completely satisfied.
I'm really pleased that you liked this song. Take care and speak soon.

p.s. Hi again. My friend Jim added his voice to an angel in the ground. This is the final version.
such a cool "whiskey sipping" kind of tune. very nice and eshar's words are awesome in here. don't really know Pink Floyd that well (gasp - shock - horror)... hehehe, but i like the sound you've got going here! very nice tune.
Thank you for the kind words.
The lyrics came after I had contact with a man in South Africa who had lost someone close to him. Eshar's words seemed perfect. Even if my vocals have flaws, I'm quite happy about the song.
/pmk
Wow, this is my very first review...
This is a very nice track. I love the guitars and the musical progression. Vocals fit perfectly with sound
Very nice work
Description : Sounds of the sea and trippy acidy washes with a cool beat and some live acoustic guitar. Written in Cubase with live guitar and keys etc. The sound of the sea and birds was recorded on the beach where I used to live. After moving to the city one sunny day I was telling stories to a friend about living by the sea and started making this track.
Description : This improv recorded a few years ago powered my interest even further than I expected.....recorded using tc electronics pedal and tascam studio recorder and a Fender Squier tele electric....
Description : I used some new "Anthem" pickups from L.R. Baggs on my Martin acoustic to see how it performed, and it definitely beat my expectations. Captured the sound perfectly as I needed.
Anyhoo, this song is almost a prayer, hence the repetitiveness of the verses. As Christians, we believe that God will one day return and take away every suffering and all evil for good; in that regard, this song is almost one of waiting too. Very simple, with vocal harmonies and whatnot. Hope you enjoy this as much as I did making it. Made in 13 hours.
Someone else wrote the words, I was just inspired to use them. I only added the "Yeah" and "Amen."
Description : This is a track off of one of my EP's I dropped last year. It is based on True events. Sometimes when people finally take a second in life to slow down and breathe in..... The oxygen is deflated and it's too late. Take your time people, because time is what differs a good decision over a bad one. Life is precious!

Description : So a guy buys a nice guitar at a pawn shop but returns it a few days later after waking from a sound sleep to hear it playing by itself. When he tells of his experience he is shocked to learn the owner had actually died while playing it. Is it fantasy or truth? Is the guitar in this track that very same guitar? Its all part of the mystery and fun of Halloween !
EDIT: modified ending to a deeper voice
Description : This track describes a magical state that I experienced a long time ago. Maybe you also know the feeling that you can't describe something like this with words ... luckily we have the music for it!
Description : So this is my first Chill Outish track. I was just trying something new and then suddenly this was a thing. Everything you hear is home made. I hope you enjoy. - Mr. Spook'd
Description : That's something i worked out lately
a swing 3/4 hip hop Chill ?? Don't know how to describe this kind of music.
Anyway VOICE NEEDED
So if your interested to try something contact me
Description : A progressive journey incorporating deep ambient chillout, swing jazz, hip hop, d'n'b, trance and a slight touch of acid with a thousand ninjas battling in space. Features a great deal of my lead slide resonator guitar playing. Also a whole load of synths, programmed acoustic drum kits and manipulated drum loops, big basslines, regular electric guitar, vocoded guitar parts and bass guitar (distorted right at the end). If you like deep chill, far out soaring beauty, fat beats and 170 BPM uplifting slide trance controlled mayhem, you might just get into this. In my heaven there is an endless supply of honey mangoes (an exquisite beauty of the fruit world) and even more slide guitar. A 1,000-year-long version of this track plays there on a loop (long enough not to get bored of it) but here I offer you the Earthly 11 min version. You must be very good to be accepted into my heaven to hear the full thousand year version so best start now. It may be heaven's main theme tune but it's not above criticism so feel free to let me know what you think of it. Maybe you prefer the soundtrack in hell. I hear it's pretty badass...
Description : This is a pretty chill track with a certain vibe. I really enjoyed making it.
Hope you guys enjoy it and let me know what you think, any feedback is appreciated.
Greetz,
