|
| The Simple Truth by theironsaul | 19 hours ago |
| Cool! Firsties for me. I really dig the rhythm guitar on this, saul...it's got a nice little "chinka-chinka" sound to it. Your vocal harmonies are nicely-blended as well. I'm waitin' for you to post a song about "No way, woman! You had your chance and you missed it so kiss my #ss!" |
|
| We Can by TomDevine | 19 hours ago |
| Right on, Tom and Mary! Kinda freaky-deeky in a good way. This is a great example of how fewer QUALITY tracks sound so much better than layers and layers of mediocres. |
|
| RAYS OF LIGHT by KCsGROOVE | 19 hours ago |
| Cees, this is BEAUTIFUL! I'd love to do some singing' on this cus it moves me...but i'm not really a woman so much... I love the sax in there too. |

| A Touch of Steam by padowan_learner | 7 days ago |
| I'd never heard of "steam-punk" before! Ya learn something new every day... This IS very period-piece-ish...well-done! 4 years is a long way to go b/w posts... |
|
| YOU NEVER TOLD ME by SISTERS | 7 days ago |
| You are a Canada of talent, Anne Your singing and harmonies are so full-volumed and effortless. The mix/production here just makes it better cus it's right there in my ears...just how i like it. I love your upper registers! Beautiful song, all! |
|
| Woh Beete Din (Those Lost Days) by ihussain | 7 days ago |
| "The Travel Channel for My Ears" You music DOES transport so very well, amigo...i just LOVE your style. It is always so sincere. I can't say i'd ever really heard a lot of Hindi at one time and never read it translated like that. Very cool. |
|
| Time To Come Home by Beatle128 | 8 days ago |
| the bass WAS weak on the early beatles, fer sure! This is awesome! Those harmonies are tighter than a flea's a-hole! Great job, guys! |
|
| Homework by mikebms | 8 days ago |
| Classic Mikebms "Whoah..." at the beginning. Really good recording, man (even w/o headphones and just through my laptop speakers!). Very earthy what with the handclaps and dynamic changes. I enjoyed this! |
|
| Acoustiflage by GuitariusMaximus | 11 days ago |
| damn, dood! this is hella-cool! just freakin; amazing playing, mang! |
|
| Billy's Eyes by LunaBleu | 12 days ago |
| Damn, Luna! This really gave me pause. It reminds me of that song "Remember (Walkin In the Sand" or "Daddy, don't you walk so fast" or "Cats in the Cradle"...something along those lines. It's just SO emotional. It would seriously bring me to tears if i let it (too tough for that) Really, really GREAT! |
|
| INVITE THE LORD IN by Lagusaya2 | 12 days ago |
| I invited the lord in...but his shoes were so muddy! Sheesh! Great compositions, Stan! I like the strings on the interlude a bunch. |
|
| Snake Oil Salesmen by theironsaul | 12 days ago |
| really has a late 70's-early 80's vibe to it... i like the production (such a clear-sounding recording, i mean) especially. bravo that! |
|
| Slide song by w1av | 12 days ago |
| Very positive feedback here. |
|
| Time After Time (cover 2) by theironsaul | 13 days ago |
| i really had a thing for cyndi lauper when she came out... so i was kinda offended when saul did this a ways back...kinda like the guy that comes in and starts dating your girl after she breaks up with you... this helps to restore things to their rightful place. beautiful harmonies and jeff is da man on the guitars (girl-stealer or not) |
|
| A Moment of Peace by LaFayette | 13 days ago |
| the pieces fit together like one of those jenga games. dig the delay! |

|
| Nobody Knows You (Italian DJ Remix!) by Naaji | 13 days ago |
| damn! so complex...textured...interesting on a lotta levels... great jobs! |
|
| No More Games by TomDevine | 13 days ago |
| if i had to pick some of "most-esteemed icomp artists" you three would definitely be among the first. beautiful instrumental sounds...so organic...(dig that lead guitar!) and then the so-appropriate tone of the story-telling on top... SO well-done. |
|
| The Spring Air by easyesteemer | 13 days ago |
| Nice, easy... beautiful piano and string/voc sound weaving through it...very visual is the mixing... i like this very much, indeed! |
|
| Victory by RubyDubidoux | 13 days ago |
| I hear abba too (which is a GOOD thing for me!)... I could stand a little more vocals up front but that's so much an individual preference (i always put 'em too loud!) beautiful orchestration and very creative lyrics... |
|
| Ribbon of Darkness (Gordon Lightfoot cover) by jibes | 13 days ago |
| right on, jibes! i dunno the tune other but i LIKE it. |
|
| Let Me Fly by toveco | 13 days ago |
| this is proof of why icomps is SO much better than any radio station! Great job, Gents! |
|
| The Other Half by AngeloA | 13 days ago |
| "a little bit of an emotional edge"...ya think? I'm gonna go on record saying this is one my all-time favs from you, Angelo. It's got great production but it's also just kinda different...i DIG that synth that keeps pulsing by...amazing how one can concentrate on it and hear it so loud but then focus on something else and it fades into the background (i realize you varied the volume too). really cool feel on this one. Well-done! |
|
| In a Norwegian Wood by ihussain | 13 days ago |
| beautiful. (that really sums it up!) |
|
| ANSWERS by KCsGROOVE | 13 days ago |
| I think the music really fits the artwork (or vice-versa?) i LOVE the keys on this, cees! |
|
| Dance of Insanity by KennethLavrsen | 13 days ago |
| i didn't know you swung this way, ken! impressive (and i'm not much of a dance fan)...i too think the drums make a difference. Nicely done! |
|
| It's a Little Bit Funny (If You Think About It) by mfwmiles | 13 days ago |
| IMPRESSIVE, miles! kinda like that who album with the mini-songs ("the who sell out"?). I like "wake up wake up" too...but you got a little FZ mixed in too... this would be a challenge to do...requires a lotta creativity! |
|
| Ragin' Fury by BigJimSlade | 13 days ago |
| Kinda got a Stooges feel to it, bigjim! I like the guitar sounds especially...cool bass line 'bout 3/4 through post the lyrics? |
|
| Never Been To Spain by Vixen | 15 days ago |
| Cool! I'm a HUGE threedognight fan, vix! they're special in my book. i dig the slide, mike... Great job, you two! |
|

| I', always impressed with yer tunes, tom! |
|
| Jigs and Fixtures by Mike_Lynn | 19 days ago |
| this song...gives...me...pause, Mike (in a good way). I'm always amazed at what inspires songs in others. You've got a great sound, man. |
|
| I Want You (Shes So Heavy) by mikebms | 20 days ago |
| This is bad***, mike;...no two ways about it. I dig that you didn't keep it just like the original (bass line and percussion, etc.) ...the slide does rule but so does yer...uh...organ. I will listen to this many more times... |
|
| Two of a Kind by Moviz | 23 days ago |
| I like the COMPOSITION here the best, amigo! How cool is this?! It has a burt bacharach feel to it...just beautiful, man. and salvaged/inspired from a reel to reel recording... Listening to your tunes, i always get ideas to try and that's a major reason i always stop by. Vocoder effect on bongos?!!? I thoroughly enjoyed this! |
|
| I'm Here in Paris by LaFayette | 1 month ago |
| yeah, this is SEAMLESS, guys...impressed with the piano and the panning/production... Very professional sound! |
|
| I'll Search For You by Moviz | 1 month ago |
| You referenced "Gypsy Lady"! That's a great tune, Moviz. I linked it to theironsaul a couple weeks ago and he was highly impressed too. This is kinda in the vein for sure but the strings take it somewhere else...someone else said kinda like a classic movie and i hear that but the percussion break is almost "animal" sounding...i'm not sure WHICH genre this'd be...but that's not so important, huh? What matters is that's an original composition IDIG that unusual bass line...it's kinda predatory too) but, above all else, your voice is excellent. Personal question (and you certainly don't have to reply but): do you now or were you ever a smoker or whiskey drinker? I've been told that adds a certain timbre to a voice...there is a richness in tone there...maybe you're just really good... |
|
| Convulsions, Kiniptions and Kickbacks by revoltington | 1 month ago |
| THAT's impressive, man! Great playing on this. |
|
| Bocce Ball Fun by markeaux | 1 month ago |
| kinda got an averagewhiteband feel goin', mark! THAT's impressive in my book. That trumpets intertwines wit' yer vocals just so appropriately too. Stanky-assed bass, man. There is a variant (kinda red-necked) of Bocce ball played in these parts called "Cornhole." Basically, ya drink and then toss beanbags long distance into buckets...the simple things are best...sigh... rock on! |
|
| Tear Your Playhouse Down by RubyDubidoux | 1 month ago |
| I'm gonna have to do some googlin' on this tune...did someone kinda 80's do it too? did elton and leon originate it too. I dig your voc on here, elain...i hear some vibrato sneakin in there in a couple places...i like that... Great playing, gents. Very professional! |
|
| Those Memories of You (cover 2) by theironsaul | 1 month ago |
| I DIG this immensely, y'all! How is it that things so often sound better when you put LESS in them? This is so bluegrassy and down-home. Ya need a wash-tub bass maybe? This made my night and restored some faith in music for me. |
|
| SHOW ME YOUR TWEETS by EvilFactman | 1 month ago |
| I love the stephen hawking background vox. Pure creativity, man! |
|
| MS. CONCEITED by Lagusaya2 | 1 month ago |
| This kinda sounds like music from a film, Stan...like classic Hollywood. It's pretty bombastic with the strings and all! Way to push the boundaries and i like the effects on your voice (kinda new for you, eh?) |
|
| Kings of Nothing by brewchugger | 1 month ago |
| STAN is avery talented artiste. |
|
| Since Ive Laid My Burdon Down by mikebms | 1 month ago |
| smolder to flame. I've never really tried anything 1/2 way spiritual (kinda hard fer a man with no faith) but this inspires me to try. i always get a kick out of yer singin', mike (your near- falsetto accents and improvs) |
|
| Desperado by Vixen | 1 month ago |
| One of my fav eagles songs, fer sure. I like it cus it's simple. |
|
| Lonlier Than That by sammydix | 1 month ago |

|
| Idea in Am by theironsaul | 1 month ago |
| didn't neil diamond have a song called "I Am"? are you trying to steal his title, jeff? the amp DOES have a great sound to it, indeed. the playing's pretty fair too |
|
| Locomotive Breath by Vixen | 1 month ago |
| i'm late to arrive...not my style This is great, vix...but you're lookin a little rough in the pic... I like the treatment you give this. They're a mind-blowing band. |
|
| Doctor Pickle (4:14) by MH2010 | 1 month ago |
| I dig it. kinda like if zappa were a threesome? way cool. |
|
| Stiffer Than A Board-Fallin' Like A Feather by JulietsFuneral | 1 month ago |
| Cool. First comment. I've missed yer tunes, man! This kinda has a Jack White meets the Who sound to it...very cool. Post the lyrics? I gotta know these things... Welcome back. |
|
| Show Me the Way by brewchugger | 1 month ago |
| Too true, jibes...but I got a handle on it now... just wait! |
|
| 4 Van Whiteaker by ClayPotts | 1 month ago |
| Something about singing gospel brings out the best vocal performances (very true here, Clay). I'm sorry I didn't know the man. |
|
| Night on the Mississippi by Narananda | 1 month ago |
| Dude, I'm a big Twain fan and this kinda caught me off guard at the beginning (i was thinking banjos...) but it DOES conjure a great scene of the "Big Muddy" at night under a full moon. What a TRIP that must've been to navigate a paddle-wheel down that... Great job! |
|
| I AM A SINNER Van Whitaker by Lagusaya2 | 1 month ago |
| Beautiful tune, Stan (but i have a hard time imagining you as anything but nice). "He walks on water, I stumble on land" is truly genius. I'm diggin' your spiritual tunes BIG time! Who's Van Whitaker anyway? |
|
| Borrowed Time by Dinkster | 1 month ago |
| i am delay-addicted so this is right up my alley! kinda has a frozen landscape/sinister trees -ness to it...could almost be broadway or opera. very chilled, dink. |
|
| Mongolian Horse by pharmakeus | 1 month ago |
| 12th century...spice trade caravan...ploddin' along on one of them weird asian camels...somehow dave gilmour appears next to me walkin barefoot in the sand with his Strat... "it's a'ight, brew...just keep ridin'..." this is a strange oasis...that tibetan monk is a long ways from home...hmmm, a purple sunset... oh, good. there's dave again... whoah, sheeba! (she breaks into a trot) must be near home. who knew chris could time-travel?! |
|
| Monkey Suit by RubyDubidoux | 1 month ago |
| THanks, Ruby! Like I said at the beginning, I'm not a huge Elton fan (at least not after '75 or so) but doing this is making me think i oughta give him another chance... Great job, boys! |
|
| COME TO ME by SISTERS | 1 month ago |

| Loveletter No.99 by guitar55 | 1 month ago |
| beautiful music. |
|
| Little Sunflower 2 by nlsn | 1 month ago |
| that lead remins me kinda of the byrds "eight mile high" era (a little more mellow though) and the whole tune conjures up some doors "morrison hotel" cus it also sounds like robby krieger playin'... cool west coast groove on this, nelson...i DIG it. |
|
| Piano Bar by thsantac | 1 month ago |
| This really picks up steam about 2/3 through! Great horns, man! I really like the atmosphere on this... |
|
| This Rock's For You by sprkymrt | 1 month ago |
| I think the cymbal sound makes it sound like a live recording. I love the bass line and guitar tone (thought it was the sweet's "little willy" at first) and cool touch with the piano too. I think you should develop this, man! |
|
| Old Stones by LaFayette | 1 month ago |
| Good "rock" music, LaFayette! har-har-har...sigh... i like the synth lead especially. Evokes a vision of flying over these formations... |
|
| I'M GETTING FUNKY by KCsGROOVE | 1 month ago |
| I like the kinda spacey thing Bing has going on with his lead on this...new dimension... i like the balance in the mix here too...the way you have things panned...but i keep thinkin' i hear a sax waitin' to blast out of the left side? Unleash that sucka! Cook tune, Cees! |
|
| The Awakening by ihussain | 1 month ago |
| Right on, Hussain! Very Nature Channel-ish (I DO mean that as high praise...those guys are so good). You've got a great imagination...it transports one, fer sure. |
|
| Another iPad Jam by GuitariusMaximus | 1 month ago |
| Sounds like Lars Ulrich on the skins. The great thing about making music is that when you learn a little tidbit you can pull it out later at just the right time and place (as i'm sure you'll do with this). I'm seriously considering getting another job so i can buy an ipad. |
|
| Down The Rabbit Hole by Bachthoven | 1 month ago |
| I was gonna say david crosby...like "guineverre" (sp?) but it also has some syd barrett-ness to it too... I could hear a whole theme album coming out on this... |
|
| Eleanor Rigby version2 (Beatles Cover) by markeaux | 1 month ago |
| Right on, Mark! I'm a huge Beatles fan! I dig the guitars but also the vocal harmony you stuck in there. Really heavy...feel like i gotta go take a shower after this... |
|
| The Political Science of Nursery Rhymes by pharmakeus | 1 month ago |
| Great lyrics, Chris! You're so good at that. |
|
| Bruddahs by sammydix | 1 month ago |
| Lots of good words to live by on this, sammy awesome harmonies as usual...you are the MAN, man. |
|
| We're Not Gonna Take It (Cover) by Cinderella | 1 month ago |
| i saw twisted sister at the old sandstone amphitheater in bonner springs, ks back is high school (opened for ronnie james dio!). Dee Snider started a fight with a guy in the audience...priceless. Anyway, you're much sexier, cindy. |
|
| Fragments by Mike_Lynn | 1 month ago |
| Those are some pretty profound questions there, gents...i often wonder where the kingdom is too. I love the fact that richard sounds a bit like mike on this...it definitely retains its "mike-ness" but it's awesome to hear someone else doing it. This is one of your best, Mike. |
|
| Theme from August Moon by zincshed | 1 month ago |
| Nice, zinc. Very mellow tune...and great recording too! |
|
| People get ready by Spiff1960 | 1 month ago |

|
| What Went Wrong by Dyl | 1 month ago |
| Damn, Dylan. Sounds to me like you've upped yer game as far as sound quality goes...i mean the clarity on this is awesome. Have you always been this good? |
|
| Matchstalk Men - cover (vocals) by ihussain | 1 month ago |
| Hey, hussain! I admire how you put your voice right up front and center on this; i think this tune needs that since it is so period-piece-ish and narrative-like. As i've said, your tunes always tell a story (with or without words) but it's cool to have some details filled in too. Fine work, amigo! |
|
| Loser by mikebms | 1 month ago |
| I think "mikebms" is a genre all your own, man. i DIG this. You're able to get so much jam out of a fairly sparse arrangement of instruments... you smolder and just always catch fire in yer tunes |
|
| Valerie Knows by BossHook | 1 month ago |
| i DIG this... is it electric...or acoustic? then the image of sticking to the bucket seats... "One Day at a Time" ...sigh... cool tune. |
|
| I Walk The Line by Dyl | 1 month ago |
| Great recording, man! You get a great punch in this. I gotta admit, i've never really thought the original was very interesting (I blaspheme, i know...) so i too like this better than the original. cheers! |
|
| Soho by RichardJohn | 1 month ago |
| aww...don't feel sleazy about it, man! **** happens! this is really original music...very finely crafted. DIG the "was soho the end?" part! nice change there. |
|
| High And Low by thsantac | 1 month ago |
| I like this a lot especially the guitar solo/piano about 1/2 way through... icomps is so cool because i probably would not hear music like this otherwise (and then get the influence in my own tunes). how cool is that?! |
|
| Why? by Moviz | 1 month ago |
| damn sad song, man ;( i like the old-time sound to it...but can't decide whetehr or not it has a country vibe in it...i could hear it done by conway twitty or someone (esp the chorus). great job! |
|
| Gypsy Lady by Moviz | 1 month ago |
| STILL one of all-time icomp favs, Moviz. |
|
| Rhetta's Song by theironsaul | 2 months ago |
| damn, jeff...beautiful song, man. that's a nice touch to references the "sunshine on my shoulders" tune too. post the lyrics? |
|
| MORNING SUNRISE by SISTERS | 2 months ago |
| Beautiful. those harmonies are just SO effortlessly brilliant... I still have all my old 4 track stuff (it was a yamaha though) and i really am glad i do (but none of it sounds like this) |
|
| Dream In Black and White (Original acoustic version) by Darkmuse | 2 months ago |
| It sounds like a stupid cliche, but it often DOES help to be a little "loose" when doing music. The acoustic sounds great but i especially like the spacey guitar "fly-bys" in the background. Cool tune! |
|
| son of zen by eagle | 2 months ago |
| Reminds me a little of Steely Dan...great sounds, gents. |
|
| Penny by Deebeesea | 2 months ago |
| Your voice kinda reminds me of kate bush (did i say that on another post maybe?). Anyway, that's high praise in my book (I'd drink her bath water)... I remember this post too and thinking it had a lot of potential...Tom's one of the very best musicians on icomps. |
|
| Anything But Lonely by Deebeesea | 2 months ago |
| Wow, Diane! You should be on a broadway stage. I'm gonna delve into yer library a little today...i gotta hear some more... | |

|
| NO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE COLORS OF SKIN by Lagusaya2 | 2 months ago |
| Wow, Stan! Your singing and vocal production on this is awesome! Really, you have such a fervor worked up with the singing...entirely appropriate to the subject matter. Growing up in the Midwest, I was exposed to some pretty negative views on certain races. I truly do believe MOST people I knew felt the same way..."You blacks and mexicans are just like us...but please stay on your own side of town." The breakthrough for me was traveling around working in education...and seeing that for every "lazy" or "thieving" minority out there, there are 10 trashy white folks. Color has nothing to do with it. |
