Song Reviews
Great textural adventure!
This track would certain make a great dance tune right up till the guitars come in. However, I'm no disappointed when they do. Was a great change of texture and a refreshing departure from the straight up dance feel.

A well crafted and entirely enjoyable song
This is a great example of how technology and artistry can combine to create great music. This song is original, produced well and fun as hell to listen to. I love the unique sounds and the dance-able groove.

do words matter anyway
cool dulcimer sounds even tho its not a real sample from a recording and a soft synth (sorry have a thing against them personal preference ) .... nice syncopation of rhythmic elements using the various samples ... i see its not your usual genre - sounds like you have real fun making it - defiantly an interesting sound ... nice electronic sound ... very cool art piece ... cheers

Very interesting sound
There is some very interesting things on this "Chaser"'s track. A lot of creativity. Maybe a real voice which sing words could give more soul to this track. Otherwidse, I love it and It's sound great. Big clap.

Blues Country Goes Electro
Congratulations to Chaser on this Rythm. It keeps you dancing along til the last second. In my opinion this one should be in the EDM /Dance/Electronica Category instead of Country/Blues/Rock, I think it would gain more visibility in that genre. I also suggest that the distortion is a bit high in some areas, of course this is a desired effect but it could be toned down ever so slightly or remastered with a little work in Eq..Overall though i think this song could get play, especially by DJ's and at clubs..Peace Thanks for sharing the Music..

good
It is a very particular piece and I would also say strange but at the same time catchy. His strange nature is what makes it pleasant and I would say also cultured. the fact remains that you are very good at mixing various genres .. good

Good track
Really good track filled with electro vibes and well mastered throughout. Great addition of guitars toward ending. Watch this space re these guys, as I reckon we will be hearing a great deal more of them in the future, hopefully within the mainstream charts.

S’good
Interesting intro, straight from ethnic timpani to electronic goodness. A little disjointed in its repetitiveness but still holding me in for a while. Good crunch guitar riff introduced, vocal sample spoiling it a little for me as it seems to be continuous. Less is more. Nice shredding :) I do get the whole rock guitar electronic merge but it has to be done right. Overall good track that I would listen to again. I’ll listen out for more from this artist as I like where they are going. Peace!

A very good question...
chaser is posing an interesting question to us - Do Words Matter Anyway? Well, yes and no. Language itself can be moving, relay intentions, start wars, stifle enemies, temper a tantrum, caress a heart, even become a virus. In many respects words matter in the most basic and also most esoteric sense. But when applied to music, the lines blur - chaser demonstrates this phenomena quite well within this track, which has a great repeating sample of a young woman saying who the hell knows what, but it simply works. Looping objects can lay the groundwork for a real sense of monotony, but chaser has been able to use the samples to its advantage - it lends a sense of perpetual motion to the song, pushing it along. Much like Muslimgauze meets Grimes, with a searing guitar solo thrown in for good measure and a bit of a shake-up. Works well on all sides of the fence and this is a great song in my view, albeit pared down and simplistic, I believe that was the intention. Keeping it raw yet flowing, every aspect of the song relies on the other. That is not only difficult to achieve, but mind numbingly contrived if not done right. This is done right.

interesting
I my self never stick to writing one style either. So I like that you write what you feel, A lot of effects on this song for sure keyboard driven, You used a lot of samples mixed with some rolling stones lyrics. It is fun nice keep on writing.

Cool, but...
This mix is very nice until the moment when start "big solo guitar" at the end of the song. This solo in my opinion is too loud and too "hard" relative to the entire mix. But all of the rest of the track is very simple and very cool. Nice fxes sounds at beginning.

Multi-genre Vocal Whirlwind
This composition begins with a middle eastern-based organic element that introduces a processed vocal element that engages the listener instantly. The soundscape then pregresses and builds with an arpeggiated sample vocal that adds even more dimension to the song's musical depth. The arrangement is well executed and the mix is for the most part even with the one exception being the guitar lead at the end build being louder than the other musical components. This song could be made into a dance song if a 4x4 beat groove was integrated and the guitar was replaced with a synth-based lead, an interesting composition overall.

Nice piece!
I like the original sounds and rhythm here. The ethnical touch here is pretty cool as well. When that sudden guitar solo comes in at the ned it's getting all progressive and nice. Wow. A very original piece that I keep coming back to. Nice work, keep it up.

Do Words Matter Anyway. - Cool Track - You don't need words.
Cool. Beginning with a solo instrument and great loop with good glider like a Bass. A very good track, disruptive and innovative. Very good mixing of electronic with electro-acoustic instruments, I would suggest just to use a solo more syncopes to follow the breaking beats of the loop. I think the Guitar solo is too straight. It could be with more swing, you know. Great Track. Congratulations.

Like the steak I burnt the other night, well done!
Very well structured, piece of music you have crafted here, with some unexpected surprises thrown in along the way. I especially liked how the harmonies, between the guitar riff, the synth arpeggios and the vocal highlights, kept the song interesting with a steady, fluid groove. The surprise guitar solo towards the end, really gave the song some added flair, as well as the polished mixing and mastering, gave the song a clean, professional sound. Nice work, keep up the great work.

Country this is not
That being said, this is an interesting mix of techno, ambient, and electronica. It is not blues or rock either, really. I am thinking Massive attack and other artists like that. This song is mesmerizing and Cool. Oh, there comes the rock. So, yes it is also guitar-based rock. Then we go back to the ambient/ electronica sound. Very cool!

Innovative Track...
A very unique track featuring many different kinds of instrumentation, vocals, effects. Not extremely blown away by this, but it may be one of those tracks that could end up growing on you. Did love the guitar riffs at the end. Gave it a nice edge. It was just very different for me, but pretty good.
