a really great track. very real. not that ive heard thousands at Looperman but definitely one of if not the best. i was not going to critique but if your going to fade out the end I think at little more gradual. like someone said already a hit song here - only takes one
I love the extremely peaceful message of this piece. fine production as well! - so different from your other ones indeed. sweet and gentle reverb on vocals! the sound-image of this song reminded me a bit of 'In your wildest dreams' but only stylistically because your message here is so different and much more spiritual.
I am not familiar with guitar works by AllenV but I will check them out!
Very tasty track, outstanding vocal just drop the peaks not the
whole vocal track...
It's in a good place, controlling the front line...Where it should be...
Strong lyrics lots of love in them meaning full...
hey there twanna
great song structure , kool stripped back vibes,vox reminds me of one of my fave lolleta holloway ,really groovy stuff , look forward to hearing the updates on this ,
and will be checking your other tracks
What I like about it: Great R & B music well composed, awesome spoken word delivery, reminds me of a cross between Robbie Robertson and Grace Jones.
what I would like to see worked on:. I think for the chorus you are using a vocal harmonizer, I had one back in the day, I stopped using it years ago except for the reverb as it sounds too weird in the mix. I would love to hear you do your own harmonies line by line with the main melody being a little more out in the mix as you have a great voice. Allen V's guitar is very good. This is one that if you work at it would be an incredible song my dear.
Cru
Hey Cru, thank you for your appreciation and critique. Believe or not, I am singing all of the vocals. I am not using a harmonizer. My husband frequently tells me that my harmonies are so close they do not sound real.
I spent many years in school and church choirs and I would always sing along with each section as they were learning their parts, from first soprano to second tenor. That was how I challenged myself vocally and developed my range.
I am currently working on the levels. An update is coming soon.
OK - this is seriously good. The narrative is really powerful,
your vocals and phrasing are very good, the composition and structure is good but there are serious production issues that need to be worked through. I agree with Jamid -in the hands of a good producer this could be bonafide hit. Well done with the caveats expressed.
-clindsay
Thank you Clindsay for your comments and appreciation. All that you suggested is relevant and appreciated. I am working on it now. I should have the "redo" up soon.
Hello,
This track very good, creatively laid out . Nice RnB, however; your gain is too high that at the top end there is a distortion. Maybe it should be a touch lower this is my view though.
It’s great job though.
Jamid
GOD! Hooked from the first beat, Al, you playing has evolved to a level of brilliance one cannot even begin to comprehend. Twanna, baby, angel LOL, I felt the depths of your soul in this hun. Absolutely brilliant track and arrangement. Take a bow my friends, take a bow!
My brother, my brother, my brother...where have you been? I am soooooo glad to hear from you!!!! I so miss the interaction of the veteran Loopers. We were like family. I really miss that.
Thank you Doll for your appreciation. You are always so heartfelt in your comments. Man...my heart just leaps when I hear from "The Vets". Do you still have "Viber"? If so, I would love to give you a ring and catch up. I will send you my number in a private LoopNote.
Much love to you and am excited to hear from you verbally and musically.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh you guys! Havent been on line in ages and I come back to the epitome of coolth. Twanna still soulful, sultry and brilliant as ever. Such soul. Al, my friend, goosebumps as always my friend. I miss you so much my brother, you carried me through such challenging periods of my life through your brilliant music and friendship. Remember the days where I would park in front of the music station for the weekend while collabing with you till the wee hours of the morning. I will always cherish that. Hope you are well my brother and Twanna, whenever you collab with Allan its pure genius and magic. Thank you guys!
First and foremost, Orlando, your country is absolutely gorgeous!! Idrija, Slovenia would be a place I would love to visit. Second, thank you so much for stopping by to take a listen and comment on what you heard. I take that dearly to heart.
This is great, your vocals are strong, the music works with them perfectly. I listened closely to the vocals, there are some big delays and reverbs happening, that is very cool. Can't go wrong with Allen's guitar tracks, amazing is the word that always comes to mind. The song reminds me a bit of the Brand New Heavies a bit Well done!
Thank you Wayne for stopping by. Very attentive ear you have regarding the vocals. As you mentioned, I used delay, reverb, and doubled the vocal to give that, "SupaNatural" feel...lol.
I so appreciate your comments and will be stopping by your LooperPad to see what you are up to.
I love this T!
It has that fonk that I love from you and the bass track is fantastic,sounds fret less..."Jazzy Fonk Bass".
Your vocals are SupaNatural.
Sis,this is so infectious and you have made my gift(I say that humbly) the one that keeps on giving,and you know what I mean...The guitar has lived way beyond what I ever would have imagined.
Great track Twanna or how my 8yr old granddaughter would say "Every Thing Is Awesome"...yes I watch "kid" movies with her,only with her of course:)
My precious brother in music and in the Lord. As we have discussed in the past, there is something brewing in the wings of things. Get ready...get ready...get ready. We both want to be position to catch the ball when it is thrown down the field.
Much love to you and your beautiful family. My heart and prayers are with you all.
Again a high quality track...but why did I write this sentence...every track you make gotta top limit, no question...you found great musicians again...this is a challenge every time...
If you call this number rock, I believe you...:-)
For me it's an rnb chillpop...:-)
Your voice and vocs are brilliant as the whole song!
Congrats dear lady, once you gotta European tour (reachin Budapest) I'm in the first line...
Hello my dear Danke. You make me laugh. I was told by another musician that my music has a great "jazz" flavor. I responded, "Huh?" I love mixing the genres for the sole purpose of not being "pigeonholed" into a specific category. I guess I failed...lol. I love your depiction of this track though..."rnb chillpop" I wish they had this as a genre selection. Maybe I will make that suggestion to "The Looper"...lol.
Much love to ya and thank you again for the appreciation:-)
Miss Twanna, how are you? I haven't been around much lately, but this morning I saw your featured track and thought I would drop by for a listen while I had a cup of coffee. Boy oh boy, am I glad that I did :)
Simply sensational in every way. Beautiful vocals with a great message, delivered perfectly. Wonderful musical accompaniment - Eric is always a wonderful addition to any song, and the way your weave his golden licks through the song make for a stellar musical tapestry.
Outstanding job (you always set the bar so high and never, ever disappoint) and a definitive add to my favorites. Beautiful!!! I hope all is well.
Bear...please forgive me for not responding back to you sooner. I love to hear from you and I always get a visual of you having your cup of java listening to music. Thank you so much for your very encouraging appreciation and I do miss you on Looperman. You are soooooo talented and add so much to this great community of artists. Please give a big hug to your "sweet one" from me.
Wow, the lyrics are very touching and are quite true. Agape love. I haven't heard that term used in so long I almost forgot it existed :) Thanks for reminding me of the love that we all cannot forget to share :P
My apologies Dear for not getting back to you sooner. Thank you so much for your appreciation. Agape love, the action, is truly something that can cure a lot of what ails us today. It is a "verb", an action word, something that we have to do to find that inner-peace we all are searching for:-)
You have a great singing voice and presence.
Love the way the guitar just blasts in and knocks me off my feet!
Very well done.
A congregation of love ?
Thank you so much, Silverman. I really appreciate you taking time out of your day to hear what I am about. As I mentioned in the description, the guitar work is by a fellow "Looper" "GuitarJocks" http://www.looperman.com/loops?mid=guitarjock. He is phenomenal along with many artists in this music community.
