on Anchor ( ft anchor ) by Mokeone
Makes me sound tame. Haha. So very intense. I dig it, makes me want to break things. Then it gets all light for a second and I come out of it just long enough to regain my composure. Cool track. Peace, Six

on One Leg Missing by PsychotropicCircle
This is very much in your vein of unusual material and cool fusions of sound. Love odd meters too. Don't use them so much because I am such a fan of the backbeat, but I love the way they sound and how the accent beat is constantly changing. I have come to expect this type of result with the work you produce and I have yet to be let down (nor do I believe that I ever will be.) Very strong. Peace, Six

on Mississippi Delta Blues by meestege
This is a fun little blues groove. Like the little breakdown in the middle. Nice harp solo and excellent slide guitar. Very cool. Curious to see what else you got coming. Welcome to the smoothest music community site on the planet, looperman.com. Peace and Love, Six

on cross tha border by lt9920
Dig this beat. Good use of the orchestral sounds and I like the way you used a more organic beat as opposed to the overused electro beats. This is a cool track, when's the vox coming? Welcome to the brotherhood that is looperman.com. Peace, Six

on Phoenix by Niclas199
For a first effort this is pretty good. This is admittedly not my style of music so I am not qualified to offer any insight from that point of view. From a production point of view I can offer this. It is very important to watch the levels (the amount of audio output) that you are getting from each track and on the master track. Too high a level causes what is called clipping (a distorted, crackling sound most of the time.) Your track has quite a bit of clipping, you might want to consider a remix (in this case I mean that literally, remix the levels, not like a club "remix" or something.) Sometimes your output is too high when you are recording a live track. It is very important to pay careful attention to this as recorded input cannot be adjusted later. The clipping on recorded audio will be there no matter how much you adjust a fader or the overall volume. One way to help hear this is to have some good flat-response (no bass, treble or mid boost) headphones and monitors. That way you can hear things exactly as they are being recorded or tracked. Hope that's helpful, and as long as you love what you do, you will find the improvement will come very quickly. Peace, Six

on Before by blairrock957
All I am getting is a mono feed...I have checked out all my stuff and things seem to be fine...am I crazy? well maybe, but that is a whole other issue. Aside from that and the crackling sounds on the track. I like the basics of what you have here. Cool acoustic piece and your vocals are unique. Peace and love, Six

blairrock957 replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
with the crackling I think it was a bad cable.
Will figure out what to do to record in stereo.

on Will the circle by blairrock957
Just wondering how you are recording and mixing because you are only getting mono. I like when people dip into the historical songbook. I like this little groove, needs stereo sound and a hint of reverb though. Peace and Love, Six
blairrock957
blairrock957 replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
needs reverb. Yea didn't have anything upstairs with reverb. I dont like the reverb from my soft ware.
Got to figure out to do stereo new to this stuff.

on Lake of Malos Nolwe by jussi_huhtala
This is a wonderful piece of music. Very evocative and pretty. Very easy to see this as a theme for a great number of things. I really like the Ennio Morricone-style strings too. Right to the favorites with this. Peace and love, Six

on Spinal Explosion by ToxicVoltage
I don't know what to make of this track. I like it and I think the music is cool. It's just so....ummm....disturbing.....haha. I like the guitar work and I like the sort of raw liveness of the drums (even though it is from a machine). The vocals are not my style, but they are very good for the genre. Well done. Peace and love, Six

on from the hood by mouko
As "rock" guitar guy, I am not allowed to say this, but I have always had a soft spot for synth based music. I dig the pulsing rythem and the beat is cool. I especially like the crazy "solo" towards the end. Something about that tweaked out tone that speaks to me every time. The drums I thought could be a little deeper or more organic, but that is more about my tastes than anything else. Peace and love, Six

on Anti Rythmic Flowww by MosReQuest
This is not my style of music so I am not an expert critic...but what you have here sounds great! The beat is strong and the melodies are sparse and pumping. I really dig this track and for someone who learned all they know in 2 and a half years you are utilizing your talents well. Keep rolling, Six

on something in A by blairrock957
This is a good start to something cool and homespun. It has a charm to it that I can't really describe. When you polish it, be sure to try and maintain some of that. Good sound on the guitar too. Peace and Love, Six
blairrock957
blairrock957 replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
the polish is that I need to practice this peice a lot more. So it stays clean and in time. Will repost when I get it better. Do have some other stuff I do better that I'll post soon.

on Flight from Hell by SubliminalG
Let me say that the build up is intense. You have some good energy and some real dark and dirty stuff going on. I was listening and I kept waiting for the explosion and it never came. Don't want you to think I am dissing you or anything like that. I just think you ought to revisit this and give it the power it needs, because you had me on the edge of my seat waiting to get up and give myself a headache from slamming around my pad. Peace and love, (or in the case of this tune case blood and hate, haha) Six

Sweet groove. All the elements play out great. Loving the Zappaesque guitar break too. Excellent. Peace and Love, Six

on Buds Drumming Fusamba by Buddrumming
Hey this is a great, progressive sounding track. I really like it. It's a little soft though. By that I mean not quite loud enough for all the elements to come through cleanly. Brilliant playing though. Peace and Love, Six

on The Way I Feel by king_bee_2007
I like the ideas that you put out here, but it seems like they are a little loud. The production feels like it should be cleaner. That might be a style choice on your part, it is just my take. Again there is promise in what you are doing, I hope you don't think I am slamming you or anything like that. Keep doing what you love, peace, Six

I like this track a lot. It's like Wu-Tang lite. Very cool use of the string samples. Good production with the vocal tracks too. Very Solid. Peace and love, Six

on Clear Skies by ZibmasterZ
But I think you have done a very good job crafting a mellow piece of music. I like the simplicity of the melodies and the straightforwardness of the whole thing. I hear it saying to me, relax, crack open a cold one and enjoy life a little. Also anyone who uses Yoda as an avatar is cool with me. =) Peace and love, Six

on Seven Tribes by Artwatcher
What you are doing, while not on the level of greatness, is still good. With time and patience you can develop your ear and arranging skills. This song is a good example of a good ear. It is not full of the typically abbraissive sounds, but rather something that was crafted to sound right. While it is not my style, I like it for what it is and think you should spend time developing yourself. Peace and love, Six

Hey thanks for taking the time to listen and comment. Even though I may sound a little morose (Goth ?) at times, I'm really am having a lot of fun here. It's people like you with great talent and great patience that are icing on the cake.

on Randall-Alternate Rock by Randall822
This song is OK. A good genre exercise but my least favorite of the three you have. It sounds good though. Just doesn't have enough elements or subtleties for my taste. But then, that is only my opinion and does not speak to the actual "quality" of the piece. Am I hearing some clipping on the acoustic guitars? Just wondering. I think this would work as a background piece for say a surfing show or some sports highlights. That is not a put down by the way. I still think you're the man bud. Peace and love, Six

Randall822 replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
Hello there Six...
Hey, thanks for your valuable comments! That's how I learn to get better. The rock song, I have to agree with you on. Nice piano part, but little else except a lot chord playing, and not much lead guitar to shine through.

As for the acoustic guitar sound, it isn't really distorted on its own, as I just listened to it on the track by itself. What is happening is, the distortion from the electric guitar is overriding to make it sound like the acoustic is distorting as well.
I liked the sound of them 2 playing together, but was no way to get that distortion sound out unless I made the acoustic softer and in the background. Anyways, I'll listen more closely on my next song and try and get things separated more. Thanks again!

on Shes Like a River by PapaChubbs
Great song my friend. Pretty arrangement, solid playing and great vox. Open G-tuning capoed at like the 3rd or 4th fret perhaps? Really brilliant stuff. Peace and love, Six
PapaChubbs
PapaChubbs replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
Hiya six, Thanks for the review. This track actually uses standard tuning capoed quite high at the sixth fret. one guitar picking around the standard chords of G,G/C and D for the verse. The other guitar plays higher inversions and harmony. The other songs, Australia and Move both use the tuning DGDGBD. Thanks again. Papa.
