[watch them MFs jUMP]

title bangs just as hard as this loop does.

love the mixing of the voices with the rest of the beat, everything feels in the right place.
this might just be my ear being weird, but one of the voice samples does feel like it's kinda sticking out and muddling the rest of the loop. I can pick it out at 0:00, 0:09, 0:15, 0:22 -- it's this uuaAaahhhhahhh sound, and its permeation throughout so much of the loop seems to make the track feel a little samey a little too fast for repeated listens.

however, there's a lot else to enjoy here -- the synth/pad is very ripped and muscular and that energizes well with the heavy clacking of the drumbeats, which are varied and make an awesome use of the kit.

i'm transported to basketballs and bricks, hot nights, urgency.

cool stuff!! i love hearing loops on this site.

[Rig - Darnell Theme]

chaotic and very anti-cool which is very darnell lol

[deep blue]

the lack of an ending hurts what is otherwise a very good track. sometimes I find, if it's hard to find a proper ending for a song, you can kinda battle royale the instruments, picking them off one at a time -- until silence remains. maybe try that -- i could see it working here.

I really love the way the notes swell throughout here. the emergence of the lead pad at about a minute or so was so lovely, and then the everpresent sense of evolution the track takes on once it does arrive is really inspired. this piece is moving, and i'm grateful to have heard it! thank you.

[Lavender Street]

i love the percussion and progression here!! this album is really proving to be a great listen for the oncoming autumn, and I'm very pleasantly enjoying it so far -- thank you :)

[Safely Surrender]

the chorus here hits

[Meant to Be]

the guitar wing at 2:30 is earned so well here! the harmonization is well done too :) also i love birds!!!!! hooray for bird analogy!!!!!! bird bird bird :D

[Terracotta Arch]

very much paints a southwest bitterness. lovely work!

[The stars in the sky]

the snare sounds a little wet here and the fade-out near the end doesn't work exaactlyyy but you're really making strides!!!!! I love the subtle melody coursing underneath the main sounds, very lovely work!!!! truly one of the songest songs C:

Themon4 responds:

Heh, thanks this one had audio issue from the start, I tried to fix them but It only made it worse, and then I wanted to back track because It was worse now and you can kinda see where that went. Thank you for the response!

[I hate math so much]

LOL math doesn't define you!!!!! maybe in some ways, in a literal sense,, but certainly not in a figurative one !! you got it!!! you can overcome >:))))

[Pink Leaves]

ah, i think i found that "in the action" piece you were talking about :D

I think this track could benefit big from some bass and maybe a slight scale back on the EQ of the primary string instrument.

as always, your sense of song structure is really strong! you are really good at intuitively letting your tracks bend in interesting direction -- keep it up!!!!!!! this was very enjoyable!
