Description : Swing & Bass - Ez Icarus

Big warm drum breaks, subtle sub bassline, funky bass cuts, horns to make the Vuvuzela hide in shame and a 20s wholesome analogue sound.

We're really getting into this swing revival and I want to know if your feeling it too?

Maybe even if your not into this track, I would be very interested to hear if anybody would like to hear some more swing inspired tracks?

Trying out a new analogue swing break sound. Please let me know what you think. Absolutely raw mixdown. No where near complete. Add your review to direct the tracks outcome...

If you have time take a listen and give EzIcarus some feedback.

DAMN this is sick, I love big band, and this is a tight take on some classic sounds. Maybe it's just cuz I played jazz bass for a couple years, but I was waiting for a sick crazy walking double bass to kick in and start running some scales. I guess as you say it's not done, but if I had one suggestion it would be to add one of those. Then again, my headphones only go down so far so maybe I'm missing it?

Nice track! Louis Prima is one of my favorite artists of all time so I love all kinds of swing beats. It really does have an old time feel to it, nice recording!

Description : I HOPE YOU ARE NOT TO LAZY TO READ THIS xD

All started with a Future Bass Drum with Reverb at 140 BPM. It sound like Dubstep and then all go fast. A very Deep Synth Flute with Reverb as Bass. Hig Synth for the Melody. High Flute with Reverb for other. And High Wobbling Synth with stereo Phaser. Many Crazy Snares and lite Stick Hits as Percussion with Reverb. End a Pad with the same Stereo Phaser effect. Yeah thats it. I work 4 Hours at this Track. Sounds Like Future Bass or Dubstep with a lite Happy EDM touch. Please leave some Feedback. Which genre is this? Whats good , Whats Bad? You know what I mean :D

Description : BRICS, the new economic powerhouse of emerging nations Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa. In the struggle for economic dominance will cooperation prevail regarding climate change and other issues of global importance or will it be business as usual?

This track is a heavily sampled break beat melange featuring Russian vocalist Doctyabrev and excerpts of speeches in languages of the other three countries including Nelson Mandela, Mahatma Gandhi, and Marina Silva of Brazil. There's a whiff of Maceo's "Cross the Tracks" in there too.

Much thanks to all the Looperman contributors including: Doctyabrev, fanto8bc, djnab, blueskies, buffalonugaluss, megapaul, and 7venth12. 100 bpm, key of E.

Description : The classic disco song of the 70's done from a man's perspective, in a mellow semi-accoustic chill version. Original artist, Gloria Gaynor did this song in 116 bpm, I am doing it in 94 bpm. If I'm granted permission to post the acapella on this site, I'd love to hear what you guys can do with it.

Key : A minor

94 bpm (slowed down from the original 116 bpm)
