Description
Here is the track that was not supposed to be. Basically, there were some over-used Apple loops staring at me. Loops that I swore I would never use just because I have heard them so many times before. I started to play around with them and I found that there were some manipulations, cuts, splits, flips, flops, etc. I could do that may make my use of the same loops sound fresh so, I kept at it. Along the way, I kept telling myself I was not happy with it but, I kept at it anyway. Before long, something was starting to form. At that point, it was too late to turn back. lol! The craziest part of this whole production was the mixing. Mixing was incredibly difficult for me this time. As I look in iTunes right now, I see 68 versions. I finally decided that I just have to let it go. I still am not happy with the mix, but here it is anyway. This will be one of those tracks that will always bother me. Here it is. Loops only. Garageband only. It's sequenced as in instrumental and not as a straight music track. This is how I sequence all of my little creations so then, all they need is a song on top. I hope you like it more than I do. Let me know.

sometimes loops just work
Not a looplover myself, but sometimes it works. Especially when these loops are combined, structured and produced skillfully. Oh yes, they certainly are here! Most of all I like thes two modulated notes at the end of the final chord. I would highlight them sometimes with overlaying an other instrument. Just those two notes...

Nicely structured as I already said. Built up well, broken down again, and taken up again. Of course these whole track could need some vocols on top.

While Garageband enables and challenges me to come up with competent tracks, I never forget how far from a real musician I really am. It would be cool to become the world's most successful "Loop Artist." I believe that it's quite amazing when I can... [see more]
