| My Angel (Found the Devil in Me) by jkane | 3 years ago |
| This might be your best singing yet - very smooth and precise at the same time. | |
| Stand for what you believe by DaveM | 3 years ago |
| Quick observation: Your singing on this one reminds me of Joey Tempest. | |
| Stand for what you believe by DaveM | 3 years ago |

| Me and Dave M by GreenStation | 3 years ago |
| A iCompers convention..... Why the hell not??? I like the idea!!! | |
| Me and Dave M by GreenStation | 3 years ago |
| Actually, this is a post-drinking picture! We didn't get too crazy, though. I was dying of jetlag at the time and just wanted to collapse. | |
| If You Want A Friend by signorina_oscurata | 3 years ago |
| This is a really good song, and you sing it quite well. I bet it would be spectacular to work it up with full instruments. If you decide to do it, I'd be interested in collaborating. Good job, Kate! | |
| How Many More Times [Led Zep Cover] by artneuro | 3 years ago |
| I had fun listening to this. Well done, guys. | |
| Madeleine Stowe by BossHook | 4 years ago |
Yeah, I'm digging this. Good melodies. Powerful sound. Incidentally, I also think she's pretty hot. Renegade and Imposter were good movies. |

| You're one-of-a-kind, Petra! This is really good, like all your songs. | |

I can't say it better than what John did. Delicate and soothing, indeed. |
|
| Fields of Foreclosure by signorina_oscurata | 4 years ago |
I really enjoyed this. Welcome aboard! |
|
| Guitars on the Wall by GreenStation | 4 years ago |
| Yeah, the acoustic is a Martin DX1, which is the cheapo with fake wood on the sides and back. Sounds decent, though. The guitar on the right is a LP Deluxe with P90s in it. | |
| OUTTA MY WAY (ft DaveM/james.moore) by FractalGarden | 4 years ago |
Thanks for the song, fellas. Not enough people appreciate my style of driving, but obviously you do. It means a lot. Really, it does. |

| As Pete said, this is more than just a song. Thank you for giving this to us. | |
| Chant by AcetyleneJukebox | 4 years ago |
| Is it a recent composition? It sounds like from the Renaissance. | |

| Can't stop my head from bobbing to this one. The picture is very cool, too! | |
| Canon #2 by georgeptingley | 4 years ago |
I like it! I wish I could do that. It all seems so complicated. I think I'd have to go to school for it to ever get the hang of it. |
|
| Closing the Distance by TheKomrades | 4 years ago |
| Dave, I didn't write this with the intention of sound Celtic, but maybe I know why it sounds that way to you. Instead of using a regular major scale, the song has a flat 7 (aka Mixolydian). A lot of Celtic music uses this same scale, so that might have triggered a connection for you. Everybody, thanks for all your kind words! It means a lot! |
|
| Cover-Let's Dance by DavidBowles | 4 years ago |
What a pleasant surprise! Thanks for putting this out here! |
|
| MIDNIGHT HOUR (duet) (cover) by Barretok | 4 years ago |
Yesterday I saw a guy on TV - I think his name was Steve Cropper. He wrote the music for this song. He was talking about the intro, and he said that later when he was writing a song called Knock On Wood, he needed an intro for it, so he took the intro from Midnight Hour and reversed the chords. Instead of going down, he goes up. Interesting, eh? I just joined a cover band, so I have to learn both songs! |

| Come on, you meant it, didn't you? | |
| One Door Closes, Another Opens by GreenStation | 4 years ago |
| Thanks George. I will try to incorporate your advice and spiff this up. Incorporating some passing notes will be the easiest thing to begin with. | |
| Ocean Rain (Bunnymen cover) by jkane | 4 years ago |
| Hey, nice! Funny that you put this out at the same time I tried to do a 4 voice song. It's not the easiest thing. Good job! | |
| Handle Of A Knife by Dyl | 4 years ago |
Dig, dig, dig it!!! |

| No Sun by Storkaas | 4 years ago |
Better than I have words to describe! |
|
| Number 1 by DaveM | 4 years ago |
| I also wanted to say that the vocals remind me a little of Derek St. Holmes, who used to sing for Nugent. He's a great singer. The guitar solo was very aggressive/exciting, so that's a big plus. | |
| Number 1 by DaveM | 4 years ago |
| Nice start! I really like this genre of music. Here are some ideas for improvement, for whatever they're worth: The guitars sound more fuzzy than ballsy. I've done the fuzzy thing lots of times myself. It tends to happen when I record at a lower volume than I'd need, so I turn up the preamp gain (or maybe a pedal) to get overdrive. It's practical for recording in an apartment, but it doesn't have the balls. A loud tube amp breaking up in the power stage is really the best, though maybe not from your neighbor's perspective. If you can't go loud, then maybe try using a modeler like a Line6 Pod or even the built-in Garageband models. Also, hot pickups are guilty of this. They tend to fuzz out instead of ring, and this can even happen when you plug the guitar into a modeler. This kinda happened when I recorded "Bad News". The pickups were a little too hot, and there was some fuzziness even though I used a Pod. During the part where you're singing "I'm looking out for #1", what about strumming the chords instead of just hitting the low 8th note? Then go back to the muted low note for the verse. I could be off-base on this, but it could be worth a try. The vocal melody seems restricted to a narrow register, so it's harder for the listener to sense a buildup or letdown. Maybe you could try altering the melody so that it's lower in certain parts, and higher in other parts. I enjoyed it! |

| All the King's Horses by GreenStation | 4 years ago |
| Thanks for the nice comments. The power chords are a Les Paul going through a Marshall JCM 800. The snare drum is a Ludwig Black Beauty. | |
| The needle and the damage done (Cover) by David Ross | 4 years ago |
I really like this. Vocals are a little low (as usual), but still damn good! |

| Romanza-Danza (sketch) by Scorp | 5 years ago |
Man, this is some good ****! I'm glad you made a banner to go on the homepage, otherwise I might never have found your music. |
|
| In my Dream by brnPetra | 5 years ago |
 Very nice melodies. The 6-beat measures kinda throw me - I haven't made up my mind whether I like that. |
|
| Black and White by David Ross | 5 years ago |
Makes me wanna move! Great strumming! I believe there's some Pete Townshend in you! |
|
| For You by brnPetra | 5 years ago |
I enjoy listening to songs as melodic as this. Your music room looks like a warm and comforting place to work. I like the yellow color on the walls. Hmmm.... I should also make a room just for music. Good idea! |
|
| Tell me I'm stupid by brnPetra | 5 years ago |
When I played this song, my kitty cat started to meow at the speakers. It was very funny. I think he really liked it (I did too). So here are 5 stars from me and Blackjack. |
|
| Rädda mig! by brnPetra | 5 years ago |
Simply beautiful. |
|
| Room By The River by David Ross | 5 years ago |
This was a fat-sounding mix. Excellent! Raw energy. You seem to lack confidence in your vocals, though, because you always mix them low. How about cranking them up in the future? |
|
| Love Song by brnPetra | 5 years ago |
Beautiful and enchanting! I could listen to it over and over again - in fact, I have! |
|
| Put Away Your Razorblades by GreenStation | 5 years ago |
| Thank you for the kind words, everybody. I almost didn't put this up here, but now I'm glad I did. | |
| The tSUNAMIS-Surfin' SANDiego Beat by PiranhaLake | 5 years ago |
Sounds like real drums recorded in the 60's!!!! |
|
| The tSUNAMIS-California Sun by PiranhaLake | 5 years ago |
| Never heard the original, but this is great stuff! I only started checking out surf music recently, but it is so much fun. This song definitely conveys that sense of fun. | |
| sober in duluth by buckhorn | 5 years ago |
I hope to hear more of your stuff. "Sober in Duluth' is excellent. |
|
| Dreams Are What You Make Them by SlimGirlFat | 6 years ago |
Wow! How many vocal passes did you record?? They sound lush and ethereal - great job! |
|
| Drum Solo by fatfriar | 6 years ago |
I'm digging it! Thanks for playing on "Soldier of Fortune" a while back. I'm happy with the results. |
|
| Sunrise by apmcleod | 6 years ago |
Man, this is good. A superb voice singing a superb song. IMHO, the track could be improved by a little more variation in dynamics - parts with a higher energy level and parts with a lower energy level. You did it at the very end by bringing things down. That sounded good. |
|
| Believe by RyanH809 | 6 years ago |
Definitely one of the most melodic pieces I've heard on this site. I've listened to the song many times and still enjoy it. One criticism I have is that the low droning note on the organ doesn't work well with some of the guitar chords. I think this song could be fashioned into a hit. |

| Waltz No. 1 in B-Flat by finney | 7 years ago |
Great idea to write a waltz! Overall it was pretty good, but I wish it had some pauses here and there. Maybe a little percussion (classical) would sound good with a piece like this. All in all, though, thumbs up! |
|
| Effing Around by dgwallace | 7 years ago |
I really enjoyed this. |
|
| My Guitar by TheTiler | 7 years ago |
| This is really good. How long did it take you to write this? My only criticism is that there was an audible noise floor. There was quite a bit of room ambience. How far away was the mic from the guitar? I'm not knocking the room ambience, btw, just curious about mic placement. | |
| (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction *COVER* by David Ross | 7 years ago |
This was great! Impressive production and vintage guitar sound. That "sound effect" was priceless. Hahaha! |
|
| Never Be Sad by georgicporgic672 | 7 years ago |
I think this has potential, but it falls a little short with this version. The intro is a bit long, as well as the verse. When the chorus comes in, it's anti-climactic because the guitar sounds buzzy instead of heavy. Maybe if you searched for a better tone and double-tracked the guitar - hard panned left and right. BGV's in the chorus might work well. More dynamics (louder parts and softer parts) to the song would help. Sorry to criticize, but I do it because I think this could be fixed up really nicely. |

| Wow jkane, you saw them live! I never got to. Phil had already died by the time I discovered the band. Thank you for your kind compliment. | |
