Eh up the gizz!!! It's been a while since I've dropped by. I can't spend as much time on looper world nowadays due to a change in work patterns! Anyway to this track. Cool baby!!! Great use of a unique vocal line from Holly. I just stand in wonderment about how you manage to produce top quality songs time and time again. This is a great offering, and my ears can't fault it one bit, it all sounds awesome!
Hi Daniel! Well it's the first time I'e dropped by your page and checked out your stuff. Wow man! You can't beat a good rock jam! Some really tasty licks and riffs cooking. I'd be interested to know what amp/settings you used to get that lead sound. Me likes...
Cheers slap. I've been called some things but never fuzz face. that's a world first ! I cook my lead guitar 2 ways = first is a VST plug in on a programme called DSound GT player express, but is also a stand-alone programme. and the second is more difficult. I use a Marshall valve-amp (AVT2000) and take a line-out from that. problem is the signal is huge! so it has to be levelled right down.But my electric guitar has 2 X double wound pick-ups on it that are the loudest I've heard anywhere, so I think that adds to a punchier sound. thanks for dropping by and giving my track a review.
Wicked groove!! Really nice bass line knits this together tight.
I love the chanting asian dude (I think I had that loop way back when). I have to say hip funky track!
sweet....im glad you liked it...... I need some more of that sweet, sax of yours..... that one track, mourning sunrise is going off the charts on reverbnation.... If I end up making it with that track, you will get the praise as well...
I like this a lot!!!The track has a good feel and a great driving groove. Arrangement is very pro as is your mix, I love the bendy effects. In my opinion, a faultless track...
as always slap the review is much appreciated! i've been putting alot more emphasis on my arrangement and mix in this one than i usually do, im glad you noticed! =]
Beautiful work Dj4Real, the song has a lot of emotion and feel. For you to have created such a track shows a real talent in arrangement and production. I am honoured by the mention when it's your genius that shines through....
Cool beat and playing! I can hear that you have a talent on the bass. It would be great to hear this (and other tracks) when you can get your recording issues sorted. I don't know what your set up is, but the great bass playing has a background hiss.This detracts the ear from the bass towards the hiss. I hope you can resolve these recording frustrations ( I have had many over the years and still have alot to learn in this field so I'm no expert). Have a look at the "Production trickbook" thread,. It looks like all of us can learn from such great and free advice...
Thanks for your comment..I love the bass..been playin for about 6 months..but have been playin the guitar for years now..I know sometimes my recordings are not all that great..im using Reaper software..Ill check out the thread you mentionned..im sure it will help..peace Dvibe
I really enjoyed this on all levels. Firstly, the arrangement is very clever and well placed, also the mix and production are first class ( all is clear and sits well). You should be really proud of this standard...
thanks Slap :) really appreciate comments like this, especially coming from someone of your stature!
im really pleased you enjoyed this, and yes i am quite proud of it (not to seem big-headed LOL)
Wowsa!!! Great sound and arrangement of loops. I love the simple drum rhythm allowing the other sounds to breathe. Reverse sounds/loops are very effective...
Very original sound and song. Well cool vocals (Ian Brown style). Great mix and production. My dog went mad when that high pitch sound came in (drove him nuts, but made me smile). Sorted!!!
Wow your production on this track just blew me away! Wonderful arrangement and loop choices. throw a chilled vocal or melody on this and Ibiza here we come...
Thanks for taking the time to review my track. I appreciate it very much. I'm just an amateur. But I'd like to think that This music production hobby could really go somewhere. I'll take your advice into consideration on adding a chilled vocal or melody. Wow never thought any of my songs would be fit for Ibiza. Chillen, Todd
Hey man, I dig this groove. Ok I will lay a sax line over this for you. It's a really nice feel and very well produced track, I have to agree that it needs a melody. I have a few software issues at the moment but once these are resolved your first in line...
A very well produced track. You have a good sense of song arrangement which shines through on this tune. The mix and balance are cool and I like the push sample...
Wow! It's like a space ship chase through a asteroid field! Really cool driving song with lots of interesting twists and turns. For a first attempt I have to give you 11/10...
Long intro! But when your trying to drive home a message of anti war then why not. I like this track, it would be well suited in a film/documentary. Your playing is really cool ( I like the clean blues sound on the guitar ala BB King style), and the arrangement is original with a good mix and balance.
Great playing Mr Voltage! It's always a pleasure to listen to a emotion being expressed through an instrument, and you did a first class job. Production and arrangement are top, as is the mix...
Slap,
Thanks for listening and commenting. Though I have been making music most all of my life, I find that I am still learning. About music and myself. Struggling with some health issues right now, but when I get through this latest challenge, I hope to collaborate with you and Bilbozo on something special. It's a goal of mine. Thanks again Slap, you are one of the best musicians I have encountered. Much Respect. Voltage
Slap....hey your really the man as far as I'm concerned.;-) You play the best sax going anywhere and your son is gonna be like you.
Glad you enjoyed the tune. Sometimes just a step back and do some arranging from loops is a good thing. I appreciate your comments very much.
Tomorrow (Nov 20) I should be showcased on Talenttrove.com if your interested. Over 9400 plays of my 9 songs in less than 2 months joining there.
Later friend,

Wowza! What an amazing tune Dave. Great production and balance. Using these samples from one of the best actors taken from one of the best films ever made is a sign of your genius.
A flawless piece from a true artistic musician. Today is a good day!
Thank you MrBone you are way too kind!...sort of a back to the future experience for me as my first tracks uploaded here were 'Apocalypse' inspired...I dig Robert Duvall so much..he was absolutely brilliant in the telly series "Lonesome Dove"..cheers mate :)
I love the way you have arranged this song. I can't tell how many of my samples you have used, but the nylon guitar loop stands out because it's the hook to the song. I so pleased you emailed me, firstly to say thank you (not many do that, so straight away I knew I'm dealing with someone who has respect). Secondly, you brought your music to my attention and I like it (Big time). The production of the song is also one of quality, which also makes me realise I'm dealing with someone who has talent, and who deserves my respect... Thank you!
Well you set out to create a scene and you did exactly that! Perfect monster/zombie music (would be wicked in a game).
Production issues to one side, just keep doing what your doing and the rest will fall into place...
Wowza!! When I asked for something funky you sent me this super charged funked tune, COOL!!! Your playing on this my friend is sublime. The foundation you made is set on the firmest ground found, not just rock, but funk rock! That's always going to be a winner.. Let's do another like this! Pretty please....
I loved all of this song. The intro is awesome as is when your masterful guitar enters and the song moves forward and up a gear. Production is first class, as always...
