| I will follow you into the dark (Death Cab cover) by PurePerversity | 1 year ago |

| The Amazing Beautiful Girl (Album Version) by RichardRinger | 1 year ago |
 Oh so good Richard! You are a true visionary. I do hope I get to see you play a gig when I come to NYC! |

| Arise by gossamertread | 2 years ago |
| Yeh! Love it. Scintillating colors and textures. Wish I had your sequencing skills man. Superbly mixed and produced, but never becomes simply an exercise in technical prowess - this tune breathes and incites the listener to apprehend its organic gestalt. Very nice | |
| Unnamed by Uplink | 2 years ago |
Abrasive and incisive. Visceral, galloping stuff. Very cool! I kind of extrapolated this one out in my mind and think it could be a real golden track. The bendy synth line is the perfect counterpart to the pounding drums and howling guitar. |

| Futura by rollinggnome | 2 years ago |
Really loved this man! Lyrically, I assent, you are traversing some pretty colossal social/artistic/philosophical concepts and currents; however you undertake this with an ironic bite and somewhat sardonic sentiment which is highly compelling to my ears. This would have Mondrian cackling in his coffin. You channel the whimsical ambience of Syd Barrets solo output with the meandering, stream of consciousness torrent or 60's Dylan to exceptional effect. The song has a great groove, complimented by an impressively rich vocal delivery. Very, very impressed man. I'm gonna have to check out some of your other stuff. Love the Josef Albers pic |

| [Alchemy]-The John Dunbar Theme (Cover) by rex | 2 years ago |
A radical reinterpretation of an exquisite movie score. The synth patches are very effective. Liked it a lot! |
|
| Just a Friend of Mine by Vixen | 2 years ago |
Wow, great collab! Deep, pulsating, resonant mix. Well resolved sonic backing which the beguiling vocals glide effortlessly atop. Loved it! |
|
| Of Marbles and Migraines v.2 by PurePerversity | 2 years ago |
| Just a few tweakson the multiband compressor, reverb levels and accordion in the last chorus. | |
| This Love (Maroon 5 Cover) by normanlevene | 2 years ago |
Haha, great interpretation! |
|
| Birthday Pie by aLChemistry0 | 2 years ago |
Wow. This had me riveted from the outset - though I am, truth be told, an unapologetic sucker for bells. The hypnotic glockenspiel motif that spearheads this composition is the perfect prelude to the found-sound textures that seep into the mix. As the bells lapse into sinuous reverse effects the nostalgia-evoking sounds of kids bantering provides the perfect counterpoint to the chiming tonalities. All in all this track exhibits an audacious yet austere fascination with the small nuances of aural effects. A transcendental listening experience mate. Well done! . |

| The Car Tune Cartoon by MIR | 2 years ago |
| Oh man, this was quite a revelation. What a visionary selection of found-sound percussive elements. Pure synergy. I'm smiling from ear to ear! | |
| Dance Me To The End Of Love (L. Cohen) by Dyl | 2 years ago |
| I'm not too familiar with this Cohen track but oh how I love these unfettered little covers of yours Dylan! Suffused with impulsive, plaintive charm. A colossal vocal performance also, I love it when you rasp it out. Great Dylan, just great! |
|
| KEEP ON WALKIN' by chuckk1 | 2 years ago |
Very rootsy with a striking immediacy. Very crisp and tight rhythms. Your voice is gorgeous - I love how it is present and not suffused in reverb... very effective in this context. Loved it! You're a natural! |
|

|
| TIME FCUK - the soundtrack (pt. 2) by Justin_Case | 2 years ago |
Love it Justin! Riddled with all your trademark, idiosyncratic compositional touches. Again there are organic threads woven into this scintillating aural tapestry. The found-sound snippets that periodically punctuate the melody are a treat. Superlative production - shimmering and swirling. Great to be listening to you again brother! |
|
| TIME FCUK - the soundtrack (pt. 1) by Justin_Case | 2 years ago |

|
| som en buddha by painfaker | 2 years ago |
Wow very nice fingerstyle! Delicate and tasteful. Austerity at its most compelling. Gorgeous songcraft! Instant fav |
|
| red obsession by bluewind | 2 years ago |
I really like this man, incisive and meditative simultaneously. Ostensibly very simple while belying an intricate structure, the composition is beautifully underpinned by the hypnotic piano motif and propulsive percussion allowing the other delicious textures to swirl, morph and coalesce into something quite cathartic. Very nice my friend. |
|
| Oh The Fear by stevehenry37 | 2 years ago |
Really cool man! Your talent shines here. Superlative performance! Great first upload, keep them coming. Welcome to icomp |

|
| Ding Dong by tonestones | 2 years ago |
Wow, this was a metronomically tight production. You demonstrate prodigious instrumental command coupled with masterful mixing skill - top-notch in every respect. Whimsical and impulsive at every turn. Well done indeed! |
|
| Three Cups of Tea (HTB) by becwil | 2 years ago |
| Wow, riveting soundscape! Totally free-wheeling and amorphous, never sounding contrived. Great to read a bit about your technical process as well! | |
| Chantey for a destitute buccaneer by PurePerversity | 2 years ago |
| Thanks for the comments guys! Haha, yeh this may indeed have been bookended by a pipe Dylan. Astute insight.... | |
| Gone by Dyl | 2 years ago |
| Gorgeous Dylan! A mesmeric ambience always suffuses these 'single mic' recordings of yours. The unison of plaintive vocals and acerbic acoustic picking are as vivid and mutually enhancing as the juxtaposition of hues in the picture you selected. Loved it old man! |
|
| Boring in C Major for the String Quartet by PurePerversity | 2 years ago |
| Glad you liked it Helene. The beat is a floor tom with a bit of tambourine. The instrumentation is predominantly autoharp and dulcimer, switching to acoustic guitar + synth towards the end. On top of this there are a few samples of smashing glass, cracking wood, a buddhist mantra, violins and church bells. I think that is about it | |
| Boring in C Major for the String Quartet by PurePerversity | 2 years ago |
| Thanks guys, glad you dug it! The backing is mainly Autoharp and Dulcimer. Cool. | |
| Chris you are a piece of by Masterpiece | 2 years ago |
Yeh, what attitude! I love these understated little folk ditties of yours. This Chris guy sounds like a real knob-jockey! |
|
| Wash Away by Justin_Case | 2 years ago |
Fantastic Justin! As always, a captivating and unique bricolage of juxtaposed textures and found-sounds supplemented with your trademark melodic inscriptions. I registered a musical tendency even more erratic and uninhibited than what I've previously encountered within your oeuvre - from the oppressive bass to the rasping synth textures, reversed sounds and glitchy cymbal torrents that puncture the composition so perfectly, moulding the songs rather nebulous structure into some semblance of musical appeal. The track traverses a stunningly comprehensive gamut of moods and highlights what I've always found so appealing in your music and practice - the musics expressive immediacy dovetails so fluently with an exploratory integrity and theoretical sophistication, never sounding trite or submitting to some pre-existing framework. A superlative track my friend, well done indeed! |
|
| I Shall Be Released by pharmakeus | 2 years ago |
| Very nice Chris. Superbly performed. Brimming with pathos. | |
| The seventh heaven by Narananda | 2 years ago |
Wow, what a visionary and synergistic synthesis of sounds! This was a true delight and highly efficacious foray into sonic alchemy - there is something distinctly carnal simmering behind the electronic smokescreen of this composition. There is SO much going on in the mix, always teetering on the brink of collapse into amorphous clutter, yet the integral melodic and textural motifs are consistently highlighted and bolstered by means of masterful mixing. Exemplary! |
|
| El Vito by dirigent | 2 years ago |
Wow, I can see why this is the weekly top track. A prodigious performance and lustrous treatment. Eccentric and idiosyncratic. Love the stringed scintillations flicking around in the mix. Gorgeous! |
|
| She's Leaving Home (cover) by john_ellis1 | 2 years ago |
| I agree, very very psychedelic. I like the employment of the subtle phaser on the guitar track. Some exploratory and effective layering and modulation of the vocals. Very nice! | |
| Noise Therapy by DjBaro | 2 years ago |
Some gorgeously scratchy and abrasive sounds swelling around here. |
|
| The Ballad Of Budd Dwyer by Heartland | 2 years ago |

Much enjoyed! |
|
| Where There's Smoke, There's Fire by Rusticalia | 2 years ago |
Wow dude, the tuning sounds fantastic! Good work formulating that one. Pensively ruminative this song exudes pathos. I notice an earlier listener made a comment about the vocal effect, in my opinion the amount of reverb/echo you have on the vocal track really works to this songs advantage. Great job man! |
|
| Evening Light by Homebrand | 2 years ago |

Oh man! I love it Helene! What a gift! What a brilliant interpretation! Sounds fantastic with the low-fi kitchen sink percussion. This has definately re-ignited my passion for the Sugababes! |

|
| Futurefolk by Stephen | 2 years ago |
Love it! Brimming with conceptual audacity. The off-kilter kitchen-sink percussion was highly effective at the start. Love the dynamic swells that mushroom then dissipate. The harmonica track was an ingenious touch. Please let me know when you add vocals, I would love to hear it! This is fantastic! |
|

| High High! En Why? by RichardRinger | 2 years ago |
Yay! This is great man, imbued as always with your idiosyncratic melodic ideas! Love the sparse, interlocking distorted guitar chords and the gorgeous transition to clean guitar noodling and the distant rattle of tambourines (?). Utterly fantastic! Richard, you are an artist in the truest sense of the word, afflicted with an unrelenting exploration of the synergistic union of sound and word. Amazing my friend, instant favourite, thanks for sharing! |
