This has an awesome feel. Ive never seen the film, but I can kind of make up one while I listen to this smiley. I would love to hear something like this orchestral or with strings or something.
Dear God by aceandseanovan 3 days ago
This gives me chills, thank you. I love the texture of the vocals, and definitely the intro, its definitely my favorite part. This is definitely on of my favorite songs Ive heard on Icomp.

There is one part that feels odd to me (it seems to be the first verse, after the intro and the first vocals) where the second guitar comes in real jangly and arpeggiated. Something about it feels very produced. But thats me being picky, and not wanting to leave without some sort of constructive criticism smiley.
Beats for Breakfast (Chris Comet Remix) by ChrisComet1 2 months ago
Ive never really listened to much trance stuff, but I really liked this, especially the first voices (the "make it funky" was good, but it just kinda felt like the song was going to change or something after that, just my thoughts).
Guillotine by SPITLOGIC 2 months ago
Some of the turntable stuff is awesome in this. I love this. Personally, I liked it most you broke out of the chorus parts and you let it go.
Become the Sky by Architek 2 months ago
That was really interesting. Things like that with spoken vocals always kinda put me in a trance. I would have loved to here a little more atmosphere and have it a little fuller, maybe like bass that envelopes the whole sound. When the other instruments would come in and play their melodies, it got eerie sounding, and I loved it.

I really like this. There are a few things I noticed though. For one, the vocals sound muffled, I cant tell if you meant to have a bit of an effect on it. It just kinda felt like the vocals wanted to be further forward and unrestrained (sorry, I probably dont know the terms, but thats what it seemed like to me smiley) The guitar also seems pretty muffled. The last thing I noticed was that the transition between the guitar parts is pretty abrupt, its a pretty noticeable change in tone.
The idea in your description sounds awesome btw smiley.

Haha thank you. Thats part of the reason Im doing this, Im a complete noob to recording smiley.
Improv of the Day 12-4-09 (Improv 2) by Alski 3 months ago
This is all it is... lol. I have just been recording little things every day for fun and to get better. Im still a fairly novice guitarist, its just fun and some practice for me.
Broken Dreams by RMulholland 3 months ago
I really liked this, great atmosphere, great tone, and I love the recurring sounds that continue near the end. I feel bad because I dont have anything to criticize lol. Well done.
Is Anybody Listening? by JmAYone 3 months ago

This is great. The beat was great, and when different instruments came in and left it was great. I find myself thinking about that too, but rest assured, there is always someone you are affecting with your art.

For some reason, I thought of time and clocks came into mind. I love the effect and the delay on the guitar. At about half way the bass (I think thats what I hear) is beautiful. Wow, this is inspiring. Well done. It deserves every one of the stars people are giving it.
God= by EzekielWeiner 3 months ago
Even though it was short, it kinda felt complete for some reason. I like this.
Improv of the Day 12-4-09 by Alski 3 months ago
I love the idea of that! Id love to send something sometime. This might be a bit short, but I could still send it to you. How long are the songs you usually receive?

EDIT: I just noticed that your page says that you dont want to have something youve already heard, which makes sense. Maybe sometime when I record something a bit longer ill send it by surprise smiley.
All The Pretty Little Horses (traditional) by carlajpatterson 3 months ago
Your voice is great. The delay makes it very dreamy and haunting.
MAYBE THEN! by geoffuk 3 months ago
I love the tone. Reminds me of Joe Satriani for some reason. I also agree with Kenn, the layering of the guitars was great. I agree that it needs vocals.
Untitled (Rough Idea) by Alski 3 months ago
I am as well! lol I have kind of set this aside as a project for a while, I might be tempted soon to add to this some more soon.

There is this timing issue on one of the guitars I can "unnotice". Haha
Lethargy by Alski 3 months ago
Agreed. Something light though. Ive already made a different section with chords over it, so at least now I have it fuller and more diverse feeling. I think lyrics would fit nicely over the progression. Once I do that, Ill update this song.
Cimmerian Shade (Unfinished) by Alski 3 months ago
Thank you. It really feels like an intro to something ominous to me.

Im really trying to restrain myself from making it heavy. I really want to keep this dark feeling surrounding it, and keep utilizing the dissonance. Once I find a suitable tone, I think I have an idea on where to go.
Lethargy (Instrumental) (Rough Version) by Alski 6 months ago
Please feel free to comment. The bass is off and everything, but Im pretty new to recording.

Please comment with any advice or tips.
First Run [Not complete] by Alski 1 year ago
Please criticize the feel of it, and I know, it is horribly sloppy and out of time, its a first try, and the first thing Ive ever trie d to write.
