Great, powerful song! Very good drive. The mix and mastering are also superb. You have showcased the instruments clearly and positioned them in a way that they communicate well with each other, without any instrument stealing the show. Awesome! I really like it!
Hello Manuela
Thank you so much for your time to listen and comment on my music.
Of course it is a real pleasure to read that you liked it. I believe that it might need some more powerful bass synth to fill the space (the lower frequencies lack volume), so I mean it, I am glad you liked it.
Best wishes, Anthony
Hello, it's actually a very nice song. However, something seems to be wrong with the mix. The beautiful female voice creates a spherical sound in the background. It seems as if an effects device is creating some kind of inexplicable spatial sound. I'm not sure how to name it exactly, but I think it needs some editing. Best wishes, Manuela.
Hello, I believe everything I could say about this song has already been said. Its a beautifully crafted song, harmonious, well-structured, and excellently mixed and mastered.
Once again, youve created a really good song, with your signature dark structure and some great rock elements. Its not necessarily my preferred genre, one that Im really familiar with. But for me, the most important thing is how music affects me. The genre is relatively unimportant to me. And this song youve presented to us is incredibly good and transports me into a kind of dream world when I listen to it. Amazing! Musically, its incredibly well done and varied in its intonation. I wont even mention the quality because Im used to only high-quality work from you in mixing and mastering! Youve never disappointed me. This isnt just a song, its an opus! Excellent!
I'm a humble man, so when I get to hear that from one of my favorite people, I can only take a bow. Thank u so much, Manuela. I knew as I was putting this one together it was going to be special. Sometimes u just know. The exciting part for me is knowing there's more in the works. We are all here for each other, and it's a pleasure watching everyone achieve greater heights. You couldn't have gave me a better compliment on my mixing, thank u! - Aaron
school boy error Manuela, i will respond to your private tmro as your having a rest day, i got in my friends car and put LM on my phone and thought that wave file looks skinny lol, then i seen 5.03mb i knew straight away but my laptop was at home, sorted before i took my coat off when i got home :)
It has turned out to be a very beautiful and emotional song, in which you have created a wonderful setting for this great voice. Very nice! I hope there will be more from the two of you.
Hello, the recording is very loud, intense and expressive! However, it seems to me that it was edited too hard in the mastering process and is clipping too much. But that is just my personal impression. Others may feel differently. Nevertheless, it is interestingly implemented. Best wishes, Manuela
Right in your face for sure! As for the mix, Could just be looper itself, as the track in daw has no clipping or redlining, the highs are mixed high in general though. Thank you for the feedback and listen!
Hi Atilla, this is really great! You can see that professionals are at work here. The sound and the arrangement are excellent. I like it very much. For me this is one of your best songs. Fantastic!
Best wishes, Manuela
your just too bloody kind, thank Nik personally from me, its already changed and yeah its been a good idea the Discord, you supported the idea but also gave us question to ask ourselves about distancing, this is the proof in the pudding our home is LM we make collabs easier only, your input early on Manuela was important to receive and i will always remind everybody that comes along the same thing the choice is use this channel to collab and host on LM if not i'll take it down until i see it on LM, this is not competition to LM its a helping hand instead of uploading wanting feedback, then when you have finally taken the feedback and used it, no ones listening to the finished cos it been hosted too long and they've heard it, only the likes of us give comments on progress this just cuts out that messy bit :) and this is a prime example, i put up a track left sided my bad, i get a studio copy on Discord 30 mins later its up and everything was a breeze :)) if thats not a help i.......

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.
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
Hello
This is a very beautiful song. It has a somewhat dark tone, perhaps. The instruments have a good flow. However, in my opinion, the vocals are too quiet and not mixed evenly. I know you like to do it this way, but I feel that if one has to concentrate too much to understand the vocals, it takes away from the listening pleasure for me personally. Still, its a lovely song.
Hi Manuela! On this particular song, the vocals were already mixed into the loop, and stem separator added a loud hiss for some reason. So this was probably the best I could get it to sound, with my current tech. Good news is I took the feedback from my last vocal mix and got some new software, I just have to familiarize myself with it. See, I do listen :)
Hello Danke! This is one of the best songs Ive heard from you! Amazing! The guitars are so clean and really bring a bit of a Hendrix vibe. Well-crafted song from start to finish, though the vocals might be a bit quiet, but thats just my subjective opinion.
The melody youve used as the theme in your song is very beautiful and uplifting. The mix and master are also very well done. However, I think the song could have been even more musically exciting if you had used the recurring melody as a kind of chorus and made slight changes in between, in a verse-like form. In other words, changing the structure of the song a bit. This would create a much larger musical arc and make the song much more interesting for the listener.
Ill put it simply: You can do it! You have the ability to make your instrument tell a story. Your timing is excellent, your technique is superb, and you express yourself and your emotions beautifully through your guitar. Truly gifted!
I hope this talent is recognized beyond the LM world. Here, we can only express our admiration, but unfortunately, it remains just a token of appreciation. Take this to the studios and apply as a session musician. I believe you could be successful.
The recording is also technically very good. How did you record the Ibanez? With a pickup or a microphone? I would love to know because it sounds very professional.
Hi Manuela....I very much appreciate your kind words and thoughts about this track, it really was as simple as all the other tracks recorded using loops and backing tracks as the background accompanying music. I record using a tascam 8 track recorder and tc electronics pedal for tones and effects. I use wireless pickups for guitar and pedal connectivity and a fender 100 or fender 50 champion for the real wide open studio effect. I only mix and master 2 channels of sound to get the acoustic sounds and it works out pretty good. I'm an older guy so im not really trying to expand my guitar music or playing or whatever you would call it. Im happy just to do what I do and if folk like it then I'm happy....I do appreciate your words greatly and just intend to be a part of this forum
Well, after seeing what you wrote in your reply to my previous post, it reinforces my opinion. I say that with the greatest appreciation! I am also pleased to hear that you listened to your wife. Men should really do that more often. Smile. Best wishes and have a wonderful day, Manuela.
Ahh Manuela, funny story. After listening to my wife and feeling the confidence to put it out to you guys on looperman. A few days later I was playing it in the studio and she walked in and said, ohh is that new? And I am like no, I made that on Saturday...you liked it. Oh did I, yeah it doesn't sound as good as I remember..lol. Yes, I do listen to her, but sometimes I get moments like that as well. I may revisit it over the weekend and fix a few things (like the sudden ending) No perfectionism I swear..lol. All kidding aside I do think it's important to listen to many diverse opinions on the sounds. Good or Bad. as they shape what I do. But at the end of the day. I make the music for my taste. If you all like it too. Bonus!!!
The great intro, the phenomenal bass and drum lines have already been widely praised. But the percussion section and the guitar work are also excellently executed. I dont even need to mention the perfect mixing and mastering. Ive noticed for a while now that you are a perfectionist. Its a wonderful musical journey through rock and funk culture that I was able to experience with my ears. Theres only one word for it: Fantastic! Although, personally, the ending seems a bit abrupt to me. (You know me, Im a bit of an ending fanatic lol)
So first off I am anything but a perfectionist lol. I made this song in less than an hour to just not lose my mixing mojo. I just bought a cheap German touch screen and added it to the studio PC. I Put on it Acid Pro's Mixing console and now I have a full-fledged mixing board I can operate the faders on the screen with my fingers. Game changer. Where I excel is in preparation before the execution. I have a library of sounds , textures and percussion. I went into this wanting to make a chill 100bpm song, started with a weird ambient sound that melded into soft funk. The secret sauce is the percussion. To keep you from being bored I mix up the percussion to add a new element after so many measures. I have also learned the right timing to elevate and bring down the mix's arrangement. The right timing for a crash cymbal,, where to add a synth percussion or a real hi hat. My fav artist is Bryan Ferry (Roxy Music) He is a master along with Brian Eno of subtly adding sounds.
Hallo Manuela, grossartige Lyrics und Produktion. Werde ich euch bei der naechsten Koelner Sommerjam sehen koennen?. Ich komme dann doch nichts um das 7db :)
Hallo,
toller Song! Der haette auf dem Sommerjam-Festival in Koeln gepasst. Ich weiss gar nicht, was dich an deinen Vokals so stoert? Ich finde, du hast eine tolle Stimme und die Band hat einen hervorragenden Job gemacht. Toller Sound, sehr schoener tanzbarer Rhytmus. Eigentlich ein wunderbarer Party-Sommer-Song. Hervorragend!
Liebe Gruesse MAnuela
hi Manuela i only hosted it for 5 days before simply because i had a lot of tracks i was working then, you know that this jumped the queue, obviously it was always going to, it was always coming back, i love it, and my last effort needed work i got that wrong but i will revisit it and do it all again, my vocal chain was corrupted somehow, enjoy that Party and great news to share when your back, lets just say i now have a very special reason to host this again, wink wink
Please dont take my first post too seriously. Unfortunately, it was missing a big smile! Again, your song is good. If it were winter now and the festival season was over, we might do something with your song. However, the prerequisite would be that you give us the individual tracks to work with. We dont do pure vocal recordings, only studio work using your stems.
I'd be more than happy to if you are interested, I have all stems, I didn't allow downloads because I dont want just anybody to be able to download it lol. Just the right vocalist. I just felt you guys had the range I was looking for :) If not no worries I can keep looking. Totally up to you! Thanks!
Hi, this is really a nice song! If you want someone to try it, it would be advisable to allow the download. However, it seems like you don't think anyone would upload their own voice here, as you mentioned on 500ccm. This of course makes it difficult to find someone here. Best wishes, Manuela

From a singer's point of view, mixing is completely different than from a rhythm instrumentalist's... :-)
