| Land of no trouble/Garden of love (draft/collab ?) by icanzilb | 1 month ago |
 Wow! Full bodied production! Expressive piano playing, and gorgeous singing. Very much enjoyed! The synth and erratic percussion are seemingly incongruous yet highly effective components in the mix! Loved it! |

Rad percussion programming - visceral and galloping! You have a great sound! You know how to modulate textures at just the right time! |
|

Wow, some awesome nausea-inducing synth lines in here, and thats a compliment! You have a great command of interweaving melodic lines! The beats are deep and resonant. Much enjoyed |

| Grove St Jam #9 by RadioRebelde | 5 months ago |
| Lovely Rob. The acoustic plucking is perfectly executed and recorded gorgeously! | |
| Sad Songs Have No Chorus by RadioRebelde | 5 months ago |
| Gorgeous Rob! Fragile guitar work and singing is really expressive. Love the glitchy clicks and static noise in the background... it really interfaces well with the composition in general. Well done! | |
| It's My Life by etgilles | 6 months ago |
| Ahhhh this is sublime. I'm a big Talk Talk fan. Great production and arrangement. Your vocals suit this song so well. | |
| dromedary by gossamertread | 6 months ago |
Wow awesome tune - so many sonic references used as an innovative point of departure. A very exotic flavour. Great track! |

| A Good Heart by etgilles | 6 months ago |
| So delicate. So frail. So endearing. You don't get much more direct and intimate than these acoustic performances by you et. Beautiful in all regards. | |
| Funk Ugly by shavingronaldscar | 6 months ago |
Jaw droppingly good as usual. Erratic, dense and abrasive - yet still holds together somehow! How the **** do you do this? I don't know. Your a magician. I believe you are one of the most original and compelling artists I have heard on Icomp |
|
| Doldrums by pharmakeus | 6 months ago |
| Great tune Chris. This is truely a thrilling and stimulating fusion of scintillating textures. While recalling electronic sounds from earlier decades this composition remains fervently modern through its precarious and slightly dismantled structure. Like your choice of the Turner painting suggests, this tune frames a similarly amorphous and tumultuous space which engulfs the listener. Well done! |
|
| Blues On My Mind by Dylan | 6 months ago |
| These one take wonders of yours never get old! A gorgeous performance all round. Your voice connects straight with the heart. Yup I'm pretty much obsessed with your voice Dylan - it has the perfect balance of authority and frail, fallible inflection. | |
| Pretty Girl by ChrisDay | 6 months ago |
A great shimmering pop tune. Very retro in style. The vocals are superb! Great job! |
|
| Rhyme and Reason (live) by PurePerversity | 6 months ago |
| Thanks for your comments guys. I just realised the audio goes out of sync with the video halfway through. Sorry about that. | |
| Seventeen by Kresling | 7 months ago |
AMAZING. A masterful composition! |
|
| City of seven winds by ckrohm | 7 months ago |
Woah yeh this is very creative and exploratory! This recalls some seminal works from the past while also remaining highly contemporary in execution. A stunning amalgamation of evocative sound snippets and tones. Masterfully arranged and produced! Great stuff! |
|
| Outro Scazm Fleesh by shavingronaldscar | 7 months ago |
WOW, I'm utterly speechless! A phenomenal melting pot of aural goodness! Incredible my friend! Immediate fav! |
|
| Look Glad by RichardRinger | 7 months ago |
Yeh this is great dude! This kind of stripped back minimalism really suits the fragility and subtle inflection of your voice. Highly effective use of found sound in the background, and distant murmurings of lead guitar and harmonica. Best song I've heard on here in a while! |
|
| EMPTY ROOM by Barretok | 7 months ago |
Very nice bossanova sounds here B. An eloquent and articulate vocal performance! Good job! |
|
| Lessons in Health (live in the lounge) by PurePerversity | 7 months ago |
| Thanks for the feedback - at the moment there is no plan on playing this song live. We simply wanted to jam the song out a bit before recording it (a different approach than usual for us). The percussion loop was just something to jam to and will definately be changed later - while sounding like a ride it is in fact a cooking pot hence the tinny tone. A rock format (with drummer and bass player) is not a trajectory we want to follow anymore. Thanks for listening |
|
| CHaoS MaGicK by Justin_Case | 7 months ago |
An amazing tribute to a brilliant artist - glitchy and disjointed in the most grandiose manner! A hypnotic and swirling mashup of the organic and synthetic. Outstanding! |
|
| Fix You by etgilles | 7 months ago |
| This is brilliant Et - so nuanced and full of frail, human inflection. The meandering guitar line compliments the amorphous vocals stylings perfectly. I love how you take great liberties with the songs original melody - it really works well | |
| Hitchhikers Hum (live in the lounge) by PurePerversity | 8 months ago |
| Haha thanks for enduring that guys! We made a few other video's the same day we did this one - I will upload these shortly. Really glad you guys actually listened to this | |

|
| Razor by Garland | 9 months ago |
| Very cool | |
| Hose Down The House Band by gossamertread | 9 months ago |
An inspired song Chris! Some delightful textures going on here - I like how the song has an off kilter feel with the dinky percussion and randomly placed notes emerging from the mix. A great blend of organic and synthesised tonalities. Top notch vocal performace also! Awesome! |
|
| Flightless Birds With Mortar Boards by gossamertread | 9 months ago |
Excellent song my friend. Very quirky and inventive guitar work - and the static beats work so well. Great vocal performance with outstanding lyrics - eloquent and articulate - a perfect mix of humour and narrative. A fine tuned masterpiece. |
|
| Not Thinking (Oxjam Mix) by ciheins | 9 months ago |
A mature work! Masterful songwriting and performance! |
|
| IX - What I Forgot About by o0o | 9 months ago |
A beautifully textured composition - just the right blend of abrasive and soothing tones. All sorts of weird and wonderful noises bubbling up from the sonic depths. A transcendent work! Great job! |

|
| Revelation (Cover) by Uplink | 9 months ago |
Wow great track my friend. This has an idiosyncratic and flowing structure which I really like - you never know what to expect - a beautiful tapestry of sound. The keys are tastefully restrained, the strings pull the tune in interesting directions and the bells are the perfect counterpart to the melodic structure. |
|

| Very tasteful Chris - warm acoustic work and deep vocals! | |
| Reflections by MIR | 9 months ago |
Damn great stuff - highly evocative soundscape and top notch performance - so many disparate elements are blended into a cohesive and compelling whole here! well done! |
|
| TEOIM: 05 I Sing the Body Electric by RichardRinger | 9 months ago |
Amazing - a truely unique composition. The arrangement is so effective, travelling from the hypnotic piano chords of the intro into a squall of feedback and abrasive percussion as the chant comes in. Superb! |
|
| Umbrella Song (edit version) by zallaz | 9 months ago |
Great great track - harks back to the heyday of brit pop. The music video is phenomenal. |
|
| Lux Aeterna by Justin_Case | 9 months ago |
This is amazing Justin! These voices are the perfect counterpart to your musical explorations. All the elements are situated with throughtful precision in this mix that truely is greater than the sum of its parts. You have a fascinating way of blending instrumentation that avoids enticing the listener to gravitate towards a particular sound, but rather encourages the comprehension of the total effect - a magical effect, transcending sonic details and technicalities. The meandering melodic lines weave in and out of throbbing drones that innovatively evoke images of illumination and spiritual transformation while avoiding the contrivance associated with "new age" tonalities. Undoubtedly a masterpiece my friend - you mix art and heart like no other! |

| Cousin Jerry by RichardRinger | 9 months ago |
Superb Richard! The soundscape, lyrics, wonky guitar and focused delivery converge on something sublime here - one of my favs from you! |

| Simple Twist Of Fate by Dylan | 10 months ago |
| Dylan dylan DYLAN! I thought you had disappeared off the face of the earth! Not only am I glad to see this is not the case but that you have also returned in exceptional form. You know I love your Dylan covers - this highlights the best aspects of the original and also extrapolates according to your own lyrical interpretation - the husky inflections in your voice are outstanding. More more MORE! ps Im still keen to do its all over now baby blue with you |

| A Sense of Absence (Open Collab) by Filmscorz | 11 months ago |
Welcome back man! I was wondering why I hadn't seen you round here. What a great experience to have had in Korea! This has a lot of potential. Beautiful driving percussion, swirling organ and pulsing bassline. Well done! |

| Incredible. Hybrid textures that Hieronymous would indeed condone! | |
| Stary Oskol by enkibumbu | 11 months ago |
Oh man I'm gonna have to check out more your music! Justin directed me to this and I'm staggered.... completely. Magical and evocative is bang on the money. A gorgeous juxtaposition of lush strings, gentle strumming and electro flourishes. Exemplary! |
|
| Glueface by shavingronaldscar | 11 months ago |
Incredible glitch/noise music! Outstanding drum programming! |

Outstanding alright! |
|
| Protest for Peace by Justin_Case | 11 months ago |
I'm not gonna delve into political dialogue here as it looks like the others have covered this comprehensively. This is a dense web of sparkling and scintillating harpisichord magic. So many tasteful changes and juxtapositions. Your signature style is here - jittery notes and liberties with time metres - however the scaled back track count gives ample space for the harpsichord to breathe and shine. The playing here is top notch in a restrained and delicate fashion - a wise avoidance of anything too showy or virtuoso I will have to listen to this again! Brilliant! |

| '77 stomp! by that80sboy | 11 months ago |
So fun and twangy! Was great without vocals I thought! But I could imagine a good vocal track could send this one through the roof! Great performance, production and everything! Well done |
|
| ZOO: Logical Warfare by Justin_Case | 11 months ago |
Excellent Justin! Sorry it took me a while to get to this! You really conjure up astronomically epic compositions on that Korg of yours! Not only does this emotionally overwhelm but also intellectually engage and astound. Well on to the music.... I found this arrangment to be highly evocative. The organ is humanized into a disconcerting wail in the intro before being torn apart by a yearning dissonance and faltering time signatures. The cannon-fire drums signal the apex of this aggressive climb after which these tendencies give way to a mournful resignation of bells that emerge dramatically from the droning landscape. Where the beginning seemed predicated on primal ambition the ending is far removed from base impulses and is concerned with a quiet reflection. The outro is profound here - the percussive bells receding into the gentle ebb and flow of lapping water. Your painting pictures with sound Justin and I LOVE it! |
|
| Anesthesia by RadioRebelde | 11 months ago |
Man the production on this is killer. Dense and lush arrangement here with flawless transitions - always unexpected but highly effective. Cool to hear you busting out a bit of synth.. the expanded palette of sounds provides tons of aural interest! Riveting the whole way through - I love how the song progresses from edgy and angular guitar chords to a meditative outro. Good job! |
|
| Enlighten Up by RadioRebelde | 11 months ago |
| Transcendent wall of noise when the distorted electric comes in! Awesome! | |

| Emotion+2 by PlusUltra | 11 months ago |
This is a stellar performance with gorgeous production! What a team! I have no criticism with this. The vocals are great with tasteful phrasing, the percussion and bass is driving and throbbing. Well done! |
|
| Nine Fingers (Is it Hot in Here?) by DebaserJones | 11 months ago |
Man you have an incredible folk sensibility! Your voice has such a gorgeous timbre and rasp (was that the wine?) which always compliments your arrangements well. I'd say the "live sound" works to this songs advantage - really allows the songs soul to shine. Great job! |

Incredible! Has a timeless resonance... the lyrics are mesmerizing and the performance oh so perfect! |
|
| 20XX: A New Year by Justin_Case | 1 year ago |
I like how this is in the holiday category  Well Justin you have woven a scintillating masterpiece here! As missred says, this is very intense... with gushes and bursts of sounds bound in lethal directions. And just when you think the song is as splendidly fractured as it could get it halts only to unleash a bombardment of tribal toms and short circuiting synth. The ending is fantastic swapping between locked grooves and assymetric patterns. I think I feel where your coming from with the experimental dance concept.... believe it or not I had a boogie listening to this! Exemplary my friend! |

| Breathe in, Breathe out. You're gonna make it. by PurePerversity | 1 year ago |
| Thanks for lasting through this folks! Haha, your bang on the money with your comment there Justin. It was based around a series of improvised takes so I guess you could say there are elements of chance and composition here. Also, you are right when you say this is more rough and shaken up than usual. |
|
| Canary in a Coke Machine by DebaserJones | 1 year ago |
Very cool song man! The performance is top notch and the production compliments this well! Reminds me of Sparklehorse somewhat! Very nice! |
|
| Alternate Reality by RadioRebelde | 1 year ago |
| I dug this Rob - sounds like somewhat of a departure for you. You have taken a risk and pulled it off exceptionally well in my opinion. This is a very well integrated blend of ambient sounds and guitar work. The background voice is very effective in grounding the composition as the other sonic delights shift and morph around it. In terms of mood, I found this to be quite disturbing and disconcerting - but thats a good thing. Edgy! | |

Thanks for directing me to this! THIS is creative man! Chaotic, dissonant, bizarre yet still holds together suprisingly well. You use the perfect amount of repeated motifs to attain cohesion. Great! |
