| Lovesong (Alone Mix) -The Cure Cover by Choirbox | 3 months ago |
| Yeah, you're right Tri, the lead vocal has a double that is highly processed. I was experimenting, apparently I should have left it alone. I think I've been hanging out with Retrolust too long! | |
| Lovesong (Alone Mix) -The Cure Cover by Choirbox | 3 months ago |
| Hey thanks J. I've been out of icomp touch for a long time. Been working with a new band a lot. It's good to be back. | |
| Listen To Me by Naaji | 1 year ago |
| Reminds me of Danielle Dax. Very similar sound both musically and in terms of vocal styling. Nice job! | |
| I am you by brnPetra | 1 year ago |
| Gorgeously sensitive. This is hands down my favorite song I've heard from you. This one reminds me a bit of Mazzy Star. It's just beautiful. | |
| The Break Down Song by jkane | 1 year ago |
| I have thoroughly enjoyed all the incarnations of this song. It's so amazing how so many of us can listen to the same song and have such different ideas of how to approach it. I love your strong vocals and your firm way of handling this track. Well done. | |
| Intentionless by taurusjust4u | 1 year ago |
 Amazing tune. I don't understand Indian, but it really doesn't matter. Masterful craft work. Beautiful, big, and excellent in every way. I thoroughly enjoyed your voice. So relaxed. |

| Fit to Be Tied by Ignoramus | 1 year ago |
| There are a lot of words I could use to describe this one, but for me, "intense" is the one that stands out. JK had a really difficult theme to deal with musically. It's hard do a story justice that is so emotional to begin with. I think all the performances really kept the central idea and feeling in mind and built on that in a very thoughtful, emotional and cohesive way. The thing I liked most about this project was that there was a real sense of putting the song first, rather than trying to outdo each other with musical acrobatics. Every bit and piece that everyone added maintained its own relevance while still allowing the other musicians to speak as well. Well done and thanks to all. I'm very happy to have been included in this. | |
| Madeleine Stowe by BossHook | 1 year ago |
| Very cool song. Her name rolls off the tongue so easily, it was meant to be sung. Well done. | |
| Tokyo Jam by TennVol22 | 1 year ago |
| A lot of fun and interesting little licks in here. Good job coming up with some creative and original layers without using loops only. Since you're asking for suggestions to make it better, my main advice on this would be to watch the redline when you export the track from GB to itunes. It's distorting because the master level is too high. | |
| Revolution 90 by pinkjimiphoton | 1 year ago |
| All I can say is... you can play! So the recording isn't the greatest, but that was obviously not the point here. The composition is really good and reminiscent of the Vietnam war era rock. Very nostalgic. | |
| JA by withoutmeasure | 1 year ago |
| A very enjoyable track. A peculiar feel to this one. I don't know if it sounds happy or sad, but it definitely sounds euphoric. Well done. | |
| peter by crowbaby | 1 year ago |
| Fun dark, dance tune with some really interesting breaks that come out of nowhere. | |
| make my day... by neurologist | 1 year ago |
| A nice "island" style piece with a dark, circus sounding edge. | |
| Phases 1 - Dirge by MMI | 1 year ago |
| Very nice atmospheric piece. | |
| ADOLPH'S HAIR (and a piece of gum) by Barretok | 1 year ago |
| I love your lyrics Barr. You are a poet my friend. If Dr. Seuss re-wrote a history book, this is what he would have said. Laugh out loud funny. | |
| In Passing by EvelynMachine | 1 year ago |
| You have a really nice, unique feel to your songs. The two I've heard are very consistent with each other. Well done. | |
| Halftone by EvelynMachine | 1 year ago |
| Very sombre. A lot of cool lo-fi sounds. It took me a little time to get sucked in, but once I did, I was hooked. The build up at the end is beautiful. | |
| Bad Smelling Funk by ElevatorFunk | 1 year ago |
| I nearly choked on my lunch when I read your song description, especially the "hardware" section. In spite of being handicapped by substandard equipment, you seemed to have turned out a laid back, chilled track. The sound didn't cancel out, the pedal left some life in the sound, and happily the world didn't come to an end. | |
| Die for Me by martyrprojekt | 1 year ago |
| I actually think the male vocal suits this right down to the ground. The perspective it's written from is very obviously masculine. That could actually make it interesting to have a girl singing it though... here I'm changing my mind now. I should think about what I'm going to say before I try to write it. In any case, it's a well done composition. | |
| explosions by that80sboy | 1 year ago |
| So nostalgic. Everything I liked about the 80's is rolled up into this song. Well done. | |
| Island Hopping by kassia | 1 year ago |
| This is so joyful. You can't listen to this and not smile. Such a carefree lighthearted mood you've created. | |
| Untitled 11 by Babble | 1 year ago |
| A lot of interesting sounds. Crystal clear and clean mix with a sense of spaciousness. Well done. | |
| Tumbleweed by adc | 1 year ago |
| I'm not a guitar player, but I really enjoyed this. You definitely created a nice desert sound-scape with this. | |
| Coffee (Mo Betta Mix2;-) by aaront | 1 year ago |
| Wow I love your voice. So mellow and smooth. You have a lot of style. Well done. | |
| Checkerboard Lounge by alterimage1 | 1 year ago |
| Great job creating not only a nice piece of music, but a whole club and crowd to play it in as well. | |
| Cliché by 8MonthMalfunction | 1 year ago |
| Well constructed piece. I enjoyed it from first to last note. And yes, Andy, you must join icomp. I'd love to hear more from you. | |
| Lupi Archive's Bootlegs: Break That Wall!! by lupiroz | 1 year ago |
| Great piece. I love the bootleg vibe. Vocals are really good and nostalgic. This reminds me a little bit of General Public. | |
| Foolish Feet by Dale777 | 1 year ago |
| Very laid back easy listen. Smooth and interesting. | |
| Torn by martyrprojekt | 1 year ago |
| This is definitely heading the right direction. You've got the beginning of something with a really unique feel to it. I think a real punchy bass line could really accentuate this track. | |
| Shadow Mind by juzcook | 1 year ago |
| Nice transitions and chord progressions. Very authentic rock/metal guitar playing. Well done. | |
| Les Cordes Sensibles by LaFayette | 1 year ago |
| Wow the guitars on this are just beautiful. You have a very emotive, delicate touch. | |
| Urban Primitive by pharmakeus | 1 year ago |
| I really like the organ in this. Very unique sound. The guitar just before the break is the perfect accompaniment to this. | |
| Hear The Nite [ House Modern Jazz ] by archie7777 | 1 year ago |
| This is a nice mix of feel, hints of jazz and poetry all over a danceable platform. Well done. | |
| shut up, zero by randolf | 1 year ago |
| Your studio has officially turned into a laboratory. This is great. Musician gone mad scientist. If you must fail, this is the way to do it. | |
| I Got a Lover by dirigent | 1 year ago |
| This is awesome! So much going on in here. I can't believe I missed this one. I love what you've done with the music. It's really hard to add music to a vocal that actually accentuates the original mood. Great job. | |
| DREAM of the ZOO by Justin_Case | 1 year ago |
| I had no idea what to expect when I saw the title. I now have images of a Battlestar Galactica meets Noah's Ark sort of zoo rolling around in my head. Other worldly. |
|
| The Break Down Song by amateurpro | 1 year ago |
| Great piece with nice movement and flow to it. Progresses nicely into something bigger than expected. | |
| I Have Made Up My Mind by BewareTheFish | 1 year ago |
| Very laid back Southern California sounding. Reminds me a bit of 311 or Sublime. | |
| My Car is Broke by DeathNougat | 1 year ago |
| Funny, definitely sounds broken, but as someone I once knew said... "It's still going forward." | |
| Lost Weekend (Lloyd Cole) by Dylan | 1 year ago |
| So good to hear your voice again. I love your folk tunes. | |
| Behind The Hills by Djev_Asnew | 1 year ago |
| So many incarnations of this song. I'm loving hearing all the different creations this song has inspired. Vocals are reminiscent of Peter Murphy. Great job to all and amateurpro, thanks for such an inspiring tune. | |
| Ach weh by dirigent | 1 year ago |
| Wow... Madrigal. Completely unexpected, but one of my favorite types of music and done so nicely. | |
| i want you to do it again by particledots | 1 year ago |
| Your music is always so creative. This is a true feast for the senses. | |
| DVNO JUSICE LAPSKIN MIX by Lapskin | 1 year ago |
| This has a really interesting sound. In spite of all the stops and starts there is still a really good groove going. | |
| Ragtime Oriole (1911) by georgeptingley | 1 year ago |
| Well done. Nice and subtle use of effects. Keeps things warm and natural sounding. | |
| My Untitled by Symplistik | 1 year ago |
| A lot of nice sounds going on. I particularly enjoyed the spacey sounds. |
|
| Every Rose Has Its Thorn [cover] by BewareTheFish | 1 year ago |
You are a genius at covers! I can't believe I missed this. This version kicks Brett Michael's original behind. |
|
| Route 2A by BewareTheFish | 1 year ago |
I'm liking this change of direction. It's definitely jazzy, but it is still young feeling and still sounds like it suits you. |
|
| She Wears My Band of Gold by pharmakeus | 1 year ago |
| I love this! I have images of cheap liquor, tube tops and trailer parks dancing in my head. This has a great feel. A perfect description of many marriages. | |
| Gina's Song by amateurpro | 1 year ago |
| I am just smitten with this song. I keep listening to it over and over, singing along and making up completely nonsensical phrases. Delightful. | |
| Nie mam zalu by MonikaThomas | 2 years ago |
I'm blown away. This is beautiful. Excellent job. |
|
| A Million Tears by nadiestar | 2 years ago |
| Very pretty. It's nice to hear Nadie in a stripped down bare sort of way. I like how nothing in this track is overdone. This is my favorite Nadie track to date. It's nice to hear the softer side of you. Everyone else, beautiful job. | |
| LITTLE ANGEL by ERAY | 2 years ago |
| Voice sounds great. I like the song over all, but I agree with 4arms on the reverb. At the beginning the reverb was a nice surreal touch, but once the song got going, it failed to anchor the song rhythmically. Very high quality sound and production and you obviously know what you're doing and how to get the sound you want. Any criticism I have is purely personal preference on this one. | |
| Pierogies for Christmas by EdPeahota | 2 years ago |
| Hehehe.... I stopped here because I make pierogies for Christmas each year. Anyone who has ever made them knows that it is a nightmare that can end up just like this. Loved the song, now I have a something to play on my ipod while making those silly things each Christmas. You made my pierogi laden holiday a whole lot more comical this year. Thanks for sharing. | |
| Steps In Time by DigitalGreyOrchestra | 2 years ago |
| Very pretty and moody. I'm late hearing this one, but I had an itch to listen to some DGO this morning and came across it. It's raining today where I'm at and your music is a nice accompaniment to it. Nice job both of you and thanks for sharing. | |
| Ode To Dad by RAVENS | 2 years ago |
| Gorgeous voice. Disturbingly real subject matter presented in an artfully beautiful way. Would you consider posting the lyrics? | |
| Ugly Pup Prophecies by Mystified | 2 years ago |
| Very pretty. It's nice to hear what your original inspiration and intent was for this song. It's so interesting to see how so many different artists can interpret a piece of music so differently and have such different visions of where to go with it. Thanks for sharing. | |
| Emmanuel by NoelProject | 2 years ago |
| Gorgeous voices. So pure. This track needs nothing, but a glass of egg nog to go with it. Thanks for pointing me to it | |
| Oh Come Emanuel by ScottCarmichael | 2 years ago |
This is gorgeous. This is golden. I can't say anything that hasn't been said or won't be said by someone else... I'll just download and put it on my ipod Christmas rotation and call it a day. |
|
| meditating on white noise by particledots | 2 years ago |
| What a surprise! I haven't heard this until... well now. I love it! I was not expecting to hear anything like this when I woke up this morning. You did a really good job keeping the original intent in focus, while still creating something entirely new. My, the things you can do with a handful of seemingly random tracks. | |
| Make it Happen by JordanNims | 2 years ago |
| High quality production. I love that super tight cracking snare sound. Great job through and through. Welcome to icomp, I can't wait to hear more from you. | |
| FIVE BY FIVE by normanlevene | 2 years ago |
Awesome! At first I was thinking... oh how sweet and then BANG! Great work. Loved the reintroduction of the piano theme later on too. Someone will have to make a virtual spin off to accompany your soundtrack now. Amazing. |
|
| Angel Eyes [cover] by BewareTheFish | 2 years ago |
| Finally sealed the deal. Very sweet. I'm a little late to the party, but congratulations. Nice cover. | |
| I Want a Monkey for Christmas by HalcyonMeter | 2 years ago |
| This is like Christmas with The Dead Milkmen. So much fun. Loved it. | |
| WD: 10 Look At Me Now by retrolust | 2 years ago |
| Your voice gets better and better with each track. I love your sound. I wiill definitely be buying the new album. | |
| Ain't No Sunshine ( cover ) by ClaireSimone | 2 years ago |
| Excellent musicianship top to bottom. I can't stop listening to the bass on this one. I'm so impressed. Who is making up the rest of the band??? | |
| Everything Goes Around by vegetal | 2 years ago |
This is the perfect backdrop for Petra's vocals. This is so surreal. This is my favorite song by you to date. Veg, great job on the synths and everything else on the list of talents, it's so huge sounding. Beautifully done. |
|
| Burning by ClaireSimone | 2 years ago |
| Nice one. A whole lot of power in those pipes. Welcome, welcome, welcome... WOW! | |
| Cult of Anubis by particledots | 2 years ago |
| I love seeing the many different "faces" this song is wearing. Every one of them is completely original and different from the others. The lyrics are so smart and clever and I love how you guys pumped up the beat a bit to give it a more genuine hip/hop feel. Well done | |
| Ugly Dog Prophecies by particledots | 2 years ago |
| Oh my goodness... right now I'm thinking, why didn't I think of that???? This is so vastly different than the ideas that ran through my head. This is really amazing. It has a bit of a Nightmare Before Christmas sound to it. Love it. | |
| Falling into you (Cover) by katvn | 2 years ago |
| Pretty Voice. I'm not a guitar player, but Pink's comment seems reasonable. The guitar just sounds a little "metallic" to me and is lacking the warmth that would compliment your voice. You've got a nice dark vocal quality and the bright sounding guitar just sits in opposition to it. | |
| SLEEPLESS MIND by Barretok | 2 years ago |
| SIX DAYS!!!! How in the world??? I'm only on one day without sleep and I'm getting what you're saying. Nice track. Swirly and borderline schizophrenic. Go take a nap. | |
| Who Am I-live by musikgrl | 2 years ago |
| Hats off to you for having the nerve to post a live piece. I'm sure it feels like you are standing naked in a room full of strangers. Nicely done though. | |
| For Erin by AaronRuth | 2 years ago |
| Very pretty piece. I had to listen because of the title, any song for a girl named Erin has to be good. Just a suggestion- watch that red line a bit. The song distorts a bit in parts because the levels are a touch too high. Very nicely done though. | |
| My Shameless Insanity by Ignoramus | 2 years ago |
Excellent job all around. This is so gorgeous and huge. I have no idea how you got the choirs to sound like that. I've heard this song quite a bit the last week or so, but my initial reaction to it when I heard it the first time was just pure amazement. After listening off an on for the past few days, I'm still awe struck by it. |
|
| End Of The World (as we know it) REM Cover by GumboStu | 2 years ago |
| Well done!!! I stopped to listen just to see if you could spit all the words to this tune out. Fun folky version of this mouthful of a song. | |
| Mirage by FractalGarden | 2 years ago |
| Great job to all on this one. I know how hard everyone has worked on the fine tuning of it and creatively it's just superb. I'm glad to see it up and getting such good and helpful reviews. Dave, your voice is just amazing. So much power, emotion and control. I could listen to it all day... wait I did listen to it all day (he he he.) Jay-guitars are excellent as always and your choice of effects is so very well thought out and fitting for the style of the song. The term "pre-set" is just not in your vocabulary. You spend a lot of time tailoring your sound for each and every song. John- pads are gorgeous and I really enjoyed the piano section. I loved hearing the more technical side of your playing. That break was my favorite part of the song and the piano part was just the icing on the cake for me. James- really good choice of rhythms for each section of the song. Really well thought out segues from one section to another. Small little changes and fills along the way kept the song moving forward and building momentum. You should all be proud of the work you've done on this one. -ChB |

| Hearts & Arms Entwined by jayman | 2 years ago |
Awesome collab. Oh my... classic rock. Just gorgeous and epic sounding. For thinking harmony is "bull" you sure can sing a harmony like you believe it. Great job to all. |
|
| Trance - Re-Inventing Dance by mesiahthegreat | 2 years ago |
Nice and BIG sound. I don't listen to trance much, but I'll dance to this any day of the week. It deserves it's place on the icomp map. |
|
| You're my vacuum (FinalRendition?) by AimlessScene | 2 years ago |
This made my night. Very silly, light hearted and fun. I want to dance to this. This is great! |
|
| ophelia's song by musetta (condurso rmx) by CONDURSO | 2 years ago |
Gorgeous. Very different and freeform. Great work. I can't say anything that hasn't already been said. This is just wonderful. |
|
| WINTER DAYS (collab) by Barretok | 2 years ago |
| You guys have collectively come up with a whole new genre. Blues inspired yes, but closer to the acid blues of the Hendrix type. Great collab. | |
| Tasting The Rain by TheGreatGonzo | 2 years ago |
| Agreed, not ambient, but who knows how to pick genres, there are so many and most stuff doesn't quite fit into any one in particular. Fun use of loops. Nice one. | |
| Fade to Black by EvilFactman | 2 years ago |
| Sounds great. Your voice has gotten so good. So much clearer and precise than earlier tunes. Great job. |
|
| Like Worshipped Chicago Dogs by particledots | 2 years ago |
| This is a great sound you have going. Love the work with the pitch wheel. This would be great for a vocalist to dance over. Dark and very Portishead. Nice one. | |
| Love's Enough (David Ackles Cover) by easyesteemer | 2 years ago |
| I'm not familiar with the artist you're covering, but I think it's great to take a song and do it in a way that works for you. Most people come across a song that's too difficult and they just don't even attempt it. You on the other hand, put some thought into how you could make it your own. Great Job. | |
| Adventure for Piano, Cello and 2nd Cello by icanzilb | 2 years ago |
Wow... Caught me off guard. This is gorgeous. It has a nice forward momentum and direction. Excellent playing. Very expressive. |
|
| Seventeen by Kresling | 2 years ago |
Gorgeous. I don't know what else to say, everything about this is pulling on my heartstrings. Beautiful, dark and moody chord prog along with bittersweet lyrics. You should be proud of this. |
|
| The ocean beat by 8ball | 2 years ago |
| Of course you mean "high" on endorphins or music or other g-rated substances... Very silly sounds. Love the graphics. A fun listen. |
|
| Find Him by ScottCarmichael | 2 years ago |
Gorgeous. A little salt, a little light and a whole lot of talent. |
|
| It's Your Blood by Raindown | 2 years ago |
| This was so much fun. Thanks for stopping by and singing a bit with me. This is probably the one and only raw, undressed track I've ever had uploaded, but it was so nice to play real live music with real instruments and people together. No production whatsoever, no multiple takes, it is what it is. A couple of friends hanging out with a 70 year old out of tune piano. I almost forgot what that actually sounds like. | |
| BLUES OF THE STRANGER by Barretok | 2 years ago |
| Very cool. This reminds me of The Police in parts. A little blues meets island rhythm. Which begs the question, can one be "blue" on an island? Nice sound as usual. I expect nothing less from you. | |
| Shatter by Skystop | 2 years ago |
Another good track. You made my morning. New artist great sound. Very surreal, sombre, yet happy. |
|
| Lifeline by Skystop | 2 years ago |
Nice. Wow what a voice. This is really good. I was hooked immediately. Gorgeous melodies. |
|
| The Greatest Gift (If You Get My Drift) by Dylan | 2 years ago |
| Me too, me too ((Bass2x.))!!!!! Thanks for inviting me to the party. I know I was "fashionably late," but thanks for waiting up for me. Seriously though, this is a great song you guys came up with and there's nothing so much fun as a broken heart. I'm so glad to have gotten to add something small to an already amazing track. |
|
| Time by tomkelly | 2 years ago |
Gorgeous. Absolutely gorgeous. Simple and sensitive. I don't think this needs anything. Anything you add to it is just going to hide the subtleties that make this track so wonderful. |
|
| People Labels by ChrisDay | 2 years ago |
| "Clever." That's the label I'm going with on this one. The rhyme scheme adds a bit of jest- nice touch. | |
| Cupid Shot Me Down by ChrisDay | 2 years ago |
| This was over way too soon... but I guess that's what being "shot down" is all about. You have a very mature sound. Simple and pretty. | |
| My Homework *d'oh* by Tonskulptur | 2 years ago |
| Very pretty and not bad for an hour of work. It's a nice sound you have going and worth taking it further. I'd be curious to see where you could go with it. Nice job. | |
| Redemption Song (Bob Marley Cover) by MissRedd | 2 years ago |
| Simple and pretty. I can't wait to hear this with a good mic. You owe it to yourself to get a nice one. Very nice. | |
