Description Get ready for a wall of sound :P

A HUGE thanks to Karmatoburn for the bass and keys on this!!!! (especially on such short notice) Thanks John!!

You may be wondering why there's the sample at the beginning. Well, working with all of those slide guitar loops made me a little "loopy" (lets not even mention the required LIOLI guitar loop) John and I decided to leave it in for fun :)

I did play a short keytar bit at 1:54 for that section, but the rest of the guitar is all loops.

Hope you enjoy this!

Yup!
Here we go... Fun Fun... and then all kicks in to a cool Rock song dig it.
Cheers. Bro

mikey_d said 189 days ago
Thanks!!
This round of LIOLI has been very entertaining- the best one yet I think! There has been so many excellent tunes created from this nasty loop. You and Linda did a great job with your entries- I enjoyed hearing them!
Thanks for the kind words Kenta!

Outstanding mikey
Love the wall of sound, and I know the nefarious loop was in there but it was so well buried it was barely noticeable. This ought to send the Doctor running for sure. Great track man.

Ed

mikey_d said 189 days ago
Thanks Ed!
I feel very fortunate to have Karmatoburn help out with this. Glad you enjoyed our collab! Oh, and Dr. LIOLI has been really quiet lately, hehe!

Vic Holman said 190 days ago
ho we, by doggy!
Mike, I think you really shave the fur off the jackrabbit. of course that jug is for medicinal purpose's only.

great tag team work here!

mikey_d said 189 days ago
Over-medicated :)
I had myself laughing while I was putting the loops together and thought the audio sample just put it over the edge. This one turned out to be a lot of fun to do.

I'm really glad that John was willing to help me on such short notice. The guy is a fantastic musician!

Rocha Malhada said 190 days ago
Far out!
Really fleshed this one out with John! I really like what you added at the end.

Great job guys!

mikey_d said 189 days ago
Thanks Harold!
Glad you liked the addition of that ending part. It was really nice of John to jump in and help me out here. And, I really appreciate your offer to help too! I'm glad you got your track going for this round. It certainly sounds great!

bud said 190 days ago
Inspired loopage -
and excellent bass and keys - great collab guys. MD - you did an awesome job wrangling those slides and mixing this monster. Another great entry.

mikey_d said 188 days ago
Thanks!
The fake guitar amp applied to the slide guitar loops was really challenging to get adjusted. (after all, it is "fake") It still doesn't sound great to me, but I was running out of time.

It was a lot of fun having John join in on this and I'm glad he did!

This round of LIOLI was exceptionally fun! Long live LIOLI!! :-)

Micheal_Wark said 190 days ago
Here comes...
...Peter Rockin-tail, choppin' down the bunny trail!

Fun collab. Great mix. Wall of sound indeed!

Be well!

mikey_d said 188 days ago
Wabbit twacks
(in my best Elmer Fudd impression, hehe) Thanks Micheal- glad you liked it!!

Leon said 190 days ago
Mikey...
You always have the vibrant music that is full of energy. when I listen to any of your songs, I feel like i am on a hyper-drive, and this is no different. You really have that awesome skill on beats and drums, and to a large extent that is what drives a song, especially an instrumental like this.

And with KTB on bass and piano, how can it go wrong. This guy is a master.

mikey_d said 188 days ago
I agree-
ktb is truly a master with the keys! I'm hoping to do more collab's with him soon.

I really do appreciate your kind words and support, Leon. Thanks for taking the time to listen and comment!

Rik Berryere said 190 days ago
Big Sound
...I'm a sucker for anything with guitars and organ cranked to the concrete-cracking level, and this one's got the rafters shaking. What a deal!

Excellent job - solid, floor-shaking rock that feels smooth and steady as it knocks plaster off the walls. And there can NEVER be enough songs about rabbits!




mikey_d said 188 days ago
Thanks Rik!
This round of LIOLI was a blast! I never was completely sure, but are you the mastermind behind this round of LIOLI and Dr. LIOLI? Outstanding concept that made this one the most fun yet!! And yes, there's never enough songs about rabbits :-)

Feter said 190 days ago
The Giant Jackrabbit
WOOOW ...what a rockin sound all over there ...
a head bangin one ...great great colab my freinds !!
YOU ROCK !!!

mikey_d said 188 days ago
Thanks Feter!
ktb's keys and bass really made this track come alive. Glad you liked it!

Karmatoburn said 190 days ago
dat jackrabbit
Mikey, many thanks for letting me doodle on that big wall. You do indeed (like Leon said) have a great gift for song. Again, I am in awe of how you took the tracks and made them stand together for a greater whole.





mikey_d said 188 days ago
Any Time!!
I can't thank you enough for doing this and in such a short amount of time. This is exactly what makes MJ's so much fun. I've probably told you that I'm only into my third year of piano lessons and not much more than that with song construction. The support that you, Leon, and so many others I respect is invaluable to me. Thanks for that!!

I'd really like to do another collab soon. I'll have to butt in gear and start working on some tracks.

Thanks again for helping me with this!!

Godchaser said 189 days ago
Well done Loopmaster!
Such a sweet,full wall of sound.I know they're guitar loops,but add the cranked keyboard work and bam,this truly rocks.Very well done gentlemen.Granny would be proud!

Blessings,

mikey_d said 188 days ago
Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed our collab. Thanks for taking the time to listen and comment!

jiguma said 189 days ago
After my listening experiences tonight ..
.. it's nice to hear something that can keep a beat Mike :)

This really rocks along - powered by those drums and John's bassline.

No sitting still for the duration!

Neil

mikey_d said 187 days ago
Hi Neil!
Thanks for the support and encouragement- means a lot to me :) I wish I had 1/2 the talent that ktb has on keys! Maybe I'll reach that point before I'm 60yrs. old, hehe. It's all about practice, right? Glad you enjoyed this!

WillyB said 189 days ago
butt kickin!...wow!
...instantly get a feeling of driving an old muscle car thru some curvy back roads, hammering the 4 on the floor and makin some beautiful noise. needless to say, the sound and feel is incredibly driving! super addition!

mikey_d said 187 days ago
Thanks!
These LIOLI challenges are a blast! Glad you got in on this round and hopefully future ones as well. Thanks for the kind words! Glad you enjoyed our collab.

Diviner said 189 days ago
Thats a powerful track
Full on Rock and well put together esp the use of the sample loop. Very good track. Nice one.

mikey_d said 187 days ago
Haha!
You know, I thought of you when I put that sample in there? You always manage to put fantastic samples in when you use them. This was more me being silly, but I do have other samples you might be interested in using sometime. I'll send you a note when I have something I can send you. Thanks for listen/comment Keith!

Mcboy said 189 days ago
groovy baby groovy
dag nab it...this is groovy.......!

mikey_d said 187 days ago
Thanks!
ktb's tracks really gave it that groovy edge. (man, that guy can play!!) Thanks for listening/commenting!

stooey said 189 days ago
Weeeeeellllllll Doggies!

aclarke said 188 days ago
Perfect theme song
fer all us double-nought spies! Coolness abounds!

mikey_d said 187 days ago
Thanks Adam!
I had way too much fun with the sample and against my better judgement, left it in. Glad you enjoyed this!

egobandit1 said 185 days ago
NIce!
Where have I been this is kickin cool collab karma is right on with the bass lines!

mikey_d said 184 days ago
I agree
The tracks he sent me were phenomenal! Glad you stopped by to check it out!

After posting this I realized I forgot to add LIOLI7 to the song name. That's what I get for waiting until the last minute and rushing things :)

dajama said 183 days ago
Very cool
Great arrangement, and terrific groove. This rocks and rolls. The loop is nicely buried! And that sample at the beginning was appropriately surreal. The bass is, indeed, outstanding. Karmatoburn did a great job. Very cool. Nicely done. Peace.

mikey_d said 183 days ago
Thanks!!
I really do appreciate you taking the time to listen and comment. Glad you enjoyed our collab!

Nick_Flash said 182 days ago
great song
This came out great. A lot of fun! The loop blends in the background nice. Cool sample too.

mikey_d said 178 days ago
Thanks!
I think it was mostly luck that I chose those slide guitar loops to use. They just seemed to bury that awful LIOLI guitar loop so well, haha! Glad you liked our collab!

Dee1962z said 180 days ago
Fun fun Fun all the way!!

Hi this is sooo cool yet red hot. Makes me giddy its fantastic.
love it those guitars wow!!
Peace Dee.

mikey_d said 178 days ago
Thanks Dee!
I have to say that while I was putting the guitars together I was laughing
a bit :) It sounded kind of like Southern Rock (blame the slide guitar loops) at first and I had no intention of creating a track in that genre. When ktb added the keys to this, it took on a quite different personality I thought. I was really glad he wanted to collab. with me. Thanks for the comment- I really do appreciate it!

MarkHolbrook said 178 days ago
Don't know how I missed this!
Mikey! This is amazingly great!

mikey_d said 178 days ago
Well,
I am known to be a lousy salesman ;P Glad you liked our collab! Thanks Mark!

magnatone said 178 days ago

mikey_d said 178 days ago
No worries :)

Faelin said 178 days ago

mikey_d said 178 days ago
Thanks Jason
It seems that this might be a perpetual party here :P I'm really glad to have you stop by and leave a comment! This collab. was a lot of fun. Glad you liked it!

floppysurprise said 178 days ago

Axgrinder said 166 days ago

Wow, it has been awhile since I
stopped by. Sorry about that. Love the song and I'm not just saying that because I like rabbits!

mikey_d said 139 days ago
No worries :)
It's extremely tough to keep up with all of the music that's posted here. Always good to hear from you! Glad you liked our collab. Thanks for listening & commenting!

Char said 39 days ago
I'm here late.
So much to listen to. So little time. Well worth the time spent here. Good tune. Thank you.


mikey_d said 39 days ago
Thanks!
I'm not sure if you were around Macjams when the last Loop It Or Lose It challenge was given. We all had to use the same awful guitar loop to create a song.

Luckily I had Karmatoburn's help with the keys on this. He's a fantastic musician and you should check out his tracks if you have time. Thanks for stopping by! Glad you enjoyed it.
