Description : Thanks to AnomalyJ for the stunning vocals here. It inspired me to make an Acid Jazz track with loads of positive energy (brings back happy memories...).
The drums are royalty free loops but everything else is me. I wanted to recreate a brass section - and had a bit of time - so I recorded it bit by bit using the sounds on my RS5 synth... a sax here, trumpet there... Hope you enjoy it!

Description : 80's pop this one... Thanks to tommyXangell and Spivcurl for the acapellas. It took me ages to find some vocals for the music - I even tried singing myself (which wasn't a good experience). I found a great VST FM synth (SQ8L) for those 80's sounds and another interesting one (VL-Tone) which replicates a little keyboard for children (which seems to be stuck panned hard left...). It's a cheerful tune. Hope you enjoy it.

Description : I was having a browse through the looperman archives,
and I found so many inspiring samples I couldn’t resist
using a load of them together... I based the song on jbonato28's bluesy vocals - 'Time to go' and 'I Got a Reason'. I also added eshar's 'Life is too short' which changes the pace a bit for the bridge. I was looking for a 'real' bass sample with all the natural elements and found 'Buzz me when you're in town' by Dan Wilson. I got the drum loop from Sterixx (Inside Drums). Finally I got the lead guitar from Looopeytunes (Bounce Guitar Lead), which really makes the chorus for me.

I recorded the ‘rhodes’ and drums fills (from my Roland RS5) live, so it's a little out of time, but it was much more fun to play... It's a bit of a mish-mash, but it was great fun to record. It sounds a bit like Monkey Business, one of my favourite Czech funk bands (there are more:). Is it funk? Probably more pop really. Hope you enjoy it.

Description : See the other version for details. If anyone can add some good vocals to this please let me know :)

Description : This song was based on Holly's acapella 'I Gave'. I wanted to make something with a bit of energy cause the last track I did was pretty dull. My wife is also happy because it has hints of Depeche Mode. regarding samples, the guitar was one and so were the strange rhythmical noises. Hope someone enjoys it... I personally like the build-up in the middle...

Description : This uses the acapella 'sweat' by ToxicxVoltage. The capella was the basis for the song. I played everything myself except for the djembe and muted guitar loops. It's quite a relaxing track... and my first one for 9 years or so, so I've learnt a lot from doing it.
