| Bereft by DavidBowles | 4 months ago |
| Rebecca, thanks. The scene in the book comes on the heels of a lot of action (fighting, explosions, etc.), and I wanted to get across the sort of frenzied bereavement that often accompanies such conflicts. | |

 Fantastic, man. |

| Deus Ex Machina by Narananda | 6 months ago |
| Haunting and cinematic. Great work. | |
| The Black Dog by DavidBowles | 6 months ago |
| Thanks. Yeah, I shielded the mic the way I would for singing, but reading drew me closer than I had expected, so some of those plosives and silibants crackle and pop. | |
| The Black Dog by DavidBowles | 6 months ago |
| Thanks! | |
| Roasty Toasty by Homebrand | 1 year ago |
Highly enjoyable funky sounds. |

A very nice rendition! |
|
| Ramayana 7: His Sandals Wait Before the Throne by DavidBowles | 1 year ago |
| @hiphopmoses: cool! And since this is mythical time, anyhow, I guess I can take nutty liberties if I want, heh. | |
| Mérida by KurtonNanogon | 1 year ago |
Some of the more syncopated notes dragged in spots, but this is pretty cool-sounding. |
|
| MIXUP by RiGee | 1 year ago |
Seamless delight. |
|
| I Love My Bass by hiphopmoses | 1 year ago |
| Love it! | |
| They Marched by Lapskin | 1 year ago |
Fantastic. Quasi-punk, sort of Bauhaus/Joy Division feel to the piece. I had a lot of fun listening to your vocal stylings. Good stuff. |
|
| Non Sequitur by FourOFour | 1 year ago |
| Immense! | |
| Midday by KurtonNanogon | 1 year ago |
Not bad. Made me happy for a few minutes, and that's about all you can ask from music, eh? Ii da. |
|
| Farewell Blueberry Melody by Ninaballerina | 1 year ago |
Heartfelt and lovely. |
|
| Hamster vs. SpaceAlien by Tadashi | 1 year ago |
Another incredibly superhuman effort. |
|
| Ramayana 7: His Sandals Wait Before the Throne by DavidBowles | 1 year ago |
| @Mosaica, definitely what I have been trying for on some of these tracks. We don't actually know what ancient Indian music sounded like, but we do have a good idea of the basics ancient Sumerian, Greek and Egyptian music... and it doesn't quite work for the larger-than-life cinematic quality that Westerners expect from epic works, so infusing those traditions with ours creates a more palatable hybrid, I think. | |
| The Reincarnate by Alimar | 1 year ago |
| A fantastic, majestic spin around the wheel of samsara... well done! | |
| The Butterflies by Thorn | 1 year ago |
Strangely engaging and affecting. Infectious lyrics and vocal stylings. |
|

I really dig this, brother! |

Engaging, fun, and quite unique. |

Evocative and highly danceable... in an around-the-bonfire sort of way. |
|

Amazing performance; gave me chills! |
|

Emotionally very powerful. |

| The space alien seems to have come. by Tadashi | 1 year ago |
Astonishing! |
|
| Clearing Sky (DI) by becwil | 1 year ago |
| Very well done, Becky. At once both apparently meandering/improvised and compositionally complex. | |
| Streets of Tangier by Balok | 1 year ago |
| I can see the bustling bazaar: something serious is about to go down. Perfectly cinematic. | |
| Piano Suite #1 by Soundtrekker | 1 year ago |
| Nice! | |
| Living in Confusion by livelargemusic | 1 year ago |
Wonderful fusion of sounds. Interesting vocal harmonies. Very cool stuff. |
|
| Ramayana-16: Vibhishana's Choice by DavidBowles | 1 year ago |
| The piano and guitar loops? Yeah, I really dig how they sound as a sarod, and they fit the melodies I'd come up with really well. Of course, I'm more interested in how you feel about the rest of the song, and not just the couple of loops I used. |
|
| Princess Star by Tadashi | 1 year ago |
Stellar. Celestial. Amazing! |
|
| Mr. Nonsense Goes to the Gym by georgeptingley | 1 year ago |
| Fun! Keep experimenting. | |
| Asim, Where's My Deer? _ by enkibumbu | 1 year ago |
| LOL. You've got these small poetic 'pauses,' like places where the melody 'inhales' before exhaling in a swell. Given your chosen lifestyle, I think that's pretty cool...  |
|
| Asim, Where's My Deer? _ by enkibumbu | 1 year ago |
I love the little swells of sound interspersed with nearly imperceptible caesurae. Fantastic. |
|
| I, Dormammu __ by enkibumbu | 1 year ago |
As always, this piece is challenging, exciting and intellectually stimulating. You are easily one of the most talented, eclectic and simply powerful composers I've listened to. |
|
| Sheepherder's dance by Orfeus | 1 year ago |
| Awe-inspiringly gorgeous and evocative of great natural sacredness. | |
| Flötenspiel by Orfeus | 1 year ago |
| Piping (flute-playing). Awesome melodic meanderings. | |
| 6 years on iComp..Many Years, Many Friends....Just some Wood Muzak.. by woodguy32 | 1 year ago |
Heroic, just like its composer. You're a true original, friend. |
|
| Dream Well (DI) by becwil | 1 year ago |
| The listener slowly climbs from the well of dreams, refreshed and ready to face reality with renewed optimism! Fantastic work. | |
| Silver Lining (DI) by becwil | 1 year ago |
| Gorgeous and deep; nicely composed and produced. | |
| Goodbye All You People by BossHook | 1 year ago |

| Cool jam. | |
| You Maybe Had a Chance by grathy | 1 year ago |
| Exquisite blend of styles and fantastic singing. | |
| West is East by falzaabi | 1 year ago |
| Perfect atmospherics. Union of western and eastern pastoral life through crackling technology. | |
| Roots Of Gujarat by Shamoonkhatri | 1 year ago |
| Very nicely done; the juxtaposition of piano and sitar works beautifully. | |
| Cube Head by Homebrand | 1 year ago |
In the first place, NanoMan is nowhere near as cool a name as Homebrand, buddy. Secondly, this is a very cool track. |
|
| Contented View (DI) by becwil | 1 year ago |
| Again, amazing use of choral voices. This reminds me of sci-fi soundtracks from the 80s like that of Bladerunner. It makes me think of our one day finding our destiny... out there, somewhere, in a cosmic apotheosis at some very distant remove from the present. | |
| Ramayana 2: Spells and Weapons by DavidBowles | 1 year ago |
| Becky, I finally put the songs in order the other day. If you click on my name above (right under the track name) and scroll down once you are in my music list, you will see all the songs renamed with their track number. Thanks so much for your support over the years. I too am a collector of your very powerful and emotive compositions. We are pretty much on a similar wavelength, I would say... a big hug to the significant other, and here's hoping that I finally get out to Hawaii some day! |
|
| 4th: If I Said You Were Sexy by DavidBowles | 1 year ago |
| zincshed... yeah, you are probably right... it is more snarky or critical than satirical. | |
| Believe by Balok | 1 year ago |
Fantastic and spare. |
|

Wow. Really beautiful piece; fantastic singing. |

Introspective and soothing. |
|
| Nasty by Cold_World_Collective | 1 year ago |
| Gritty. | |
| Black River by pharmakeus | 1 year ago |
| Heartfelt and thundering. Perfect tribute. | |
| Big Deep am bigger by falzaabi | 1 year ago |
Very nutty and clever. |
|
| BootyBank by TheShamanKing | 1 year ago |

| TU (you) by Morris | 1 year ago |
Linda canción. La música debería de ser cosa de familias, en mi opinión. |
|
| EL CUENTO (The tale) by Morris | 1 year ago |
Padrisimo. Ente Miguel Mateos y Genesis, con una pizca del Tri. Bien logrado. |
