| ANIMANOCTURNA by SpiresVortex | 8 months ago |
| This is lovely. I may have seen a UFO this evening, so it is entirely appropriate. | |
| Water House by SpiresVortex | 11 months ago |
| Spires - this is just lovely. You should have a lot more comments/fans imo. | |
| Salve by davajonah | 1 year ago |
| Thanks Harald! I should spend a bit more time here really. I don't get many comments. Then, I don't give many out! |
|
| aTime'sTrick by SpiresVortex | 1 year ago |
| Wow! Listened on a commuter train. I'm on my way to work! Really nice. I love the chord changes at 1min and the suptle way you bring in the synth voices. Beautiful work Spires. | |

| Hey! The 74th bottle was mine. Was it full or empty? | |
| Jollof Rice (Icomp Cous Cous) by Gitano | 2 years ago |
| Middle Eastern? Jollof Rice is a West African dish, as are most of the instruments used in this tune. [Kalimba, African marimba and various African percussion instruments.] The other sounds were made using soft synths, the Albino 3, I think and Greenoak's Crystal, most likely. I can't remember because it's quite an old tune. But I think, essentially, that Jollof Rice, though made here in the U.K., has an African, and not Middle Eastern sound! | |
| Morning Road by zincshed | 2 years ago |
| Augustus Pablo - yes sir! This is really nice. Lovely skank soundbed for the melodica. This would be cool to dub up. | |
| Living On the Flight Path by zincshed | 2 years ago |
| Nice groove! Love the synthy pads! Laid back late night stuff. I like it. | |
| Constellations no vocals by carolineguenther | 2 years ago |

| Echo TV by KDB91 | 3 years ago |

| Music For Starports 1 by DougG | 3 years ago |
| Doug - this is fabulous. You have my utmost respect for being able to put this stuff together. Just wonderful. | |
| Sage's Theme by Enertron | 3 years ago |
| Indeed, beautiful. Lovely choice of instrumentation and clear as a bell. Top mix, great tune. | |
| no road to hell by Lapskin | 3 years ago |
| Very cool electronica. The funky guitar riff is great and sits wonderfully over the padding. Cracking build up. 20 mins you say??? Nice tune. |
|
| Our man Gorden by Lapskin | 3 years ago |
| Haha! Poor old Gord.... Nice beats. |
|
| ALL ABOUT YOU by Hunksten Proudfoot | 3 years ago |

| A handful of rice by Narananda | 3 years ago |
| Gosh, this is nice! Drums have just kicked in. Beautiful stuff, very different. I like this a great deal. | |
| RELICS by SpiresVortex | 3 years ago |
| Man - your vocal work gets better with each track. Spires, this is just lovely. Guitar, synth choices and your vocal in this are perfect. The minimal beat holds it all together superbly well. Excellent track brother Vortex! | |
| x by tokai2 | 3 years ago |
| This is superb. Heavy, heavy stuff and really well put together. Got to agree with your comments about the Slave Trade - but you forgot to include Liverpool, [where I'm from] which took over from Bristol and became the biggest slaving port in the country. The city, until very recently, chose to conveniently forget the legacy [including a long established Black population] that the trade has left. I'm glad it is now slowly, after much pressure, putting the record straight. Hell of a good song - thanks! |
|
| The First Time by mfwmiles | 3 years ago |
| Beautiful orchestration, nice build up and a great mix. Love all the little FX you have going. Lovely song! | |
| Piano, Oud and Flute Revisited by rpmix | 3 years ago |
| Very nice! Good use of loops from the jampacks, very well mixed. I love those Eastern things, they're great to play around with. | |
| Clam Bay Pier Dance by Xolv | 3 years ago |
| This is so cool! I'm going to have to spend a bit more time here I think. Excellent instrumentation and a wonderful Summery sound. Nice one. Cheers!  |

| 53 is still missing. Isn't it? I just listened. Or am I missing something here? | |
| Ba Bella by deputydoofy | 3 years ago |
| LOL! Love it DD. You should put some gurgling nappy [diaper in the U.S.] changing noises in there as well. Nice one. |

|
| caribbean by IanCarey | 4 years ago |
Really nice! Just what is needed here on Merseyside right now. It's cold and raining.  Beautiful use of synths, lovely ambient tune. |
|
| Never too late by DLB | 4 years ago |
| Great stuff - excellent mix. The cowbell does it for me! I hear The Stones too in this. | |
| Communication Breakdown by DLB | 4 years ago |
| Fat, fat bass! Nice. Subject material familiar to me too. Especially when I'm sat here listening to or making a tune, instead of DIYing. Hah! |
|
| Todays The Day by DLB | 4 years ago |
| Yes! I can relate to this one alright. Nice, nice song. | |
| 99 Bottles Collaboration by alanatomic | 4 years ago |

| 99 Bottles Collaboration by alanatomic | 4 years ago |

| 69 Bottles of Beeeeeeeerrrrrrrr. by joolsoakland | 4 years ago |
| Man that is SEXY! Well good Jools. Best real ale round these parts, btw, is Brimstage's Trapper's Hat. A fine IPA, brewed with loving care here on the Wirral. The head Brewer is called Neil Young, so there is a musical connection! |

| You've got a real feel for this stuff my man. Beautifully put together. | |
| Tow Session by toveco | 4 years ago |
Brother - this is excellent! Sounds like a period movie film score. Terrific stuff and really well produced. I've DLed -thanks. |
|
| Lullaby for Mateo Cosmo (A Capella) by itiswotitis | 4 years ago |
| Wow Jo - this is a stunner. Beautiful singing, and I love the little echoey effects. DLed - thanks! | |
| montage by AimlessSea | 4 years ago |
| This is beautiful. On the pod, thank you. | |
| PERFECT by itiswotitis | 5 years ago |
| Congratulations! What a lovely song too. | |
| Going Over by davajonah | 5 years ago |
| Thanks Stu - you didn't! Yes - took a while to tweak, but I think it sounds better now. I can't get the tune out of my head. Driving me nuts, you know I'm sure! |
|
| Going Over by davajonah | 5 years ago |
| Nice one Jo! Put a lot of hours into this, I did. | |
| Sifuna Ukuthula by hutchk | 5 years ago |
I'm so glad I stopped by! Terrific music. |
|
| On the way by hutchk | 5 years ago |
This truly is awesome. I absolutely adore this sort of fusion. Top stuff. |
|
| East Wind Sanctuary by hutchk | 5 years ago |
Just stunning. A truly great track and I've taken a download, so thank you. |
|
| Gancho by davajonah | 5 years ago |
| Thank you very much! This was a bit of a throwaway tune too. How tickled I am... |
|
| Jade by davajonah | 5 years ago |
| Thanks Iti! New version is more 'phone friendly - lowered one of the pad voices - which was rather too obtrusive. Also added some arp layers - the number of octaves increase as the tune plays. Anyway - thanks for your comments etc - nice one. |
|
| itiswotitis (the underground hubby) D&B ala OA by ORANGEAUDIO | 5 years ago |
Dark, fat and brilliantly mixed. Great tune. |
|
| A Windows User's Lament by rfwilmut | 5 years ago |
LOL! Yeah - I have to work with them all day. Getting home to my G5 is a real treat. Taken a DL to play to some people - thanks! |
|
| INSOMNIA (echoes in the dark) by Barretok | 5 years ago |
Man - I just got scared... Great groove took a DL, thanks. |
|
| RAMSEL vs Predator: by RAMZAR | 5 years ago |
Awesome! Top guitar work. |
|
| Fade To Light by RoboScott | 5 years ago |
| I really like this, I've taken a DL thanks. Your first tune! It's really chaotic and undisciplined but at the same time - really tight. I'd like to do something like this myself. You must have had heaps of fun putting it together. Nice one. |
|
| Minus Seven by davajonah | 5 years ago |
| You guys really are too kind. Thanks for your comments! I listen to it again now and think to myself,"Well, maybe it's not that bad after all!" Nice one. I'd love to hear Tomita do a video game btw. Or Brian Eno - imagine? |
|
| Up in the Attic by davajonah | 5 years ago |
| Thanks for all the kind comments everyone. I'm tickled. |
|
| dance by brandocamos | 5 years ago |
| Solid tune and a nice fat bass when it comes in. Drums seem fine to me, but it is too short. | |
| eversaw by brandocamos | 5 years ago |
Cool usage of recognisable loops, very cool! Nice and heavy and I really like it. I agree about it just stopping, make it longer! |
|
| Test MDA by brandocamos | 5 years ago |
| Fun tune! Greenoak's Crystal has to be the best free piece of software ever released. Have you got all the patch banks? If not then get them! |
|
| FEEL by itiswotitis | 5 years ago |
| nice one Jo...has soothed me. |
|
| MIND WALK (35/11 & One Half) by Barretok | 5 years ago |
Fantastic! Great present for the New Year - thanks! |
|
| Symmphoney by davajonah | 5 years ago |
| Glad you liked it! I did get done what I had to do - but it was a week or two later. Thanks! |
|
| Rock-a-Moogie by davajonah | 5 years ago |
| Wow! Someone downloaded it! Thanks Iti! |
|
| She's Your Amphetamine,, by itiswotitis | 5 years ago |
| Fabulous. Instant download - you two go together like, er... well like something that's good anyway. Super sounds, great collab. | |
| Look to the Horizon by itiswotitis | 5 years ago |
Wicked synth work and awesome vox sound. We get some amazing Irish Sea sunsets where I live - looking forward to watching the horizon and listening to this on my iPod. Excellent. |
|
| Ling by davajonah | 5 years ago |
| Shake your booty baby! Glad you like it and thanks very much. |
|
| Thelma and George by davajonah | 5 years ago |
| Thanks again itiswotitis - nice of you to comment. T and G are my mum and dad btw. They were watching when I made this tune - hence its title! It's an old, loopy one, but I did make the synth sounds that fade in and out. | |
| Paddy's Wigwam by davajonah | 5 years ago |
| Thanks! If ever you come to Liverpool - Go to Paddy's Wigwam and not the Cavern. |
|
| The Wood Between the Worlds by itiswotitis | 5 years ago |
This is fantastic - best in your jamroom imo. Maybe the start is a bit abrupt, but truly a wonderful soundscape. Reminds me in parts of some Sufi trance I've heard and certainly wouldn't be out of place on Eno/Byrne's My Life In The Bush Of Ghosts. Wonderful music and definately one for the pod. Thanks! |
|
| Frogments of my Imagination by itiswotitis | 5 years ago |
This is well cool! And the frog IS saying "aww yeah" I swear. Top job. I got a few frogs this year. "Lake Dava" here at the mansions [hah!] is four years old and the frogs decided the time was right to move in. They make no noise alas! Mute frogs... |
|
| Ya Habibi by itiswotitis | 5 years ago |
Brilliant. What a good groove this is - top collab. Thanks for the DL! |
|
| iCompilations IV by MakenaMonk | 5 years ago |
Nice work! [Took a while to load though] Thanks for including my "loopy" tune. |
|
| Stott's Knot by davajonah | 5 years ago |
| Right in the mood for what methinks?! Thank you. |
|
| Stott's Knot by davajonah | 5 years ago |
| Thanks guys, truly appreciate all your comments. My eyes really are bad though. I'll have to have a few days away from this machine. Cheers all! |
|
| Pipe Noises by davajonah | 5 years ago |
| LOL! Pipes around the world! This has a Japanese reed flute [nearest sound to a fife I could find] Irish penny whistle, Shetland bagpipes, Irish bodhran, Scottish snare drum and my own humble synths. Yes - a right mix. Not one for purists, but I was only messing about. I'm a big fan of Celtic [especially Irish] music. I love its dynamism and the way musicians are always looking to incorporate new sounds into traditional tunes. Check out an Irish band called Kila if you are interested. They have their own site with some free downloads. Good stuff. Thanks very much for listening and commenting. And Cesar, you are a Celt? Excellent! |
|
| Rafters [2] by davajonah | 5 years ago |
| Thanks you guys - your comments cheer me up! Later Dave. |
|
| Probit and Logit by grandtheory | 5 years ago |
| I recognise some of these loops, but what you've done with them is brilliant imo. Top notch mixing and a great "bleepy" tune. | |
| Black at Night by grandtheory | 5 years ago |
| Can't sing eh? Understood - neither can I. This not as instantly likeable as your others for me, but I suspect it's a grower. On the playlist anyway! | |
| Robust Standard Errors by grandtheory | 5 years ago |
| This one develops beautifully. Your mastery of FX is excellent. Addams Family on acid! | |
| Electric Kool-Aid Hausman Test by grandtheory | 5 years ago |
| I'm working my way through your compositions - this is the best so far imo! I love it! A new playlist for my pod is at the moment being created. Nice one, thank you and good stuff. I'd like to hear a longer version of this - develop some of those really dark themes behind the bleeps. | |
| This song needs a name.... and a little tlc. by grandtheory | 5 years ago |
| Dark, industrial, with a great "Astronomy Domini" Floyd vibe running through it. Heavy stuff and very good. | |
| Tinderbox by davajonah | 5 years ago |
| Hey guys - thanks for the listens and comments. Really appreciated. I was only messing about when I did this one - trying very hard to get to grips with Logic and mixing and I wanted to make something very loud and heavy while still trying to hear all the different sounds. I find it difficult 'cus I don't know what I'm doing really. Maybe I should go on a course or buy a manual - it must be quicker and easier than fiddling with all the buttons and sliders and not remembering what I've just done! Thanks again - made up! DJ |
|
| Jollof Rice by davajonah | 5 years ago |
| Thank you Cesar - I enjoyed doing this one! Next door's cat likes it too btw. It wandered in while I was playing it, and sat transfixed looking at the computer. Maybe it was thinking of its roots in the African Savannah! | |
| Weeping Guitar by LaFayette | 5 years ago |
So glad I logged in today. I've heard some superb tunes this morning and this is no excepltion. Fantastic, wonderful laid back sound. Great bass and guitar. Thanks. |
|

Wow! Fantastic. I've taken a DL - thanks! |
|
| Who Knows? by davajonah | 5 years ago |
| Hey that's really kind of you guys! Thanks for the listens. | |
| This Is A Field by davajonah | 6 years ago |
| Thanks Ian - 'preciate your comments as usual! Nice one! |
|
| Allah L'a Ke by davajonah | 6 years ago |
| Thanks for the listen and comment David, appreciate that! The kora is a very expressive instrument, a beautiful one and I wouldn't presume to be able to emulate its sound with my rudimentary skills! I just wanted to do something with the sound really, in my own amateur way. I love that little melody and I had a lot of fun playing with the midi and experimenting with different synths while making the tune. Yes, you are correct, I'm sure that a person with more skill than me could do a much better job, but I'm happy with what I've achieved! I've been to West Africa btw, and have been lucky enough to see the kora played live by griot masters. It really is something else! Thanks again. DJ |
|
| Silent Night by davajonah | 6 years ago |
| Thank you for taking the time to listen and comment guys - really appreciated. I have to say - I'm not particularly religious myself, but yes, you are right Rick. The carol lends itself to the ethereal and the mystery/majesty of such an incredible story [or truth, depending on your belief] - it is such a simple, yet at the same time, powerful melody. Have a good holiday! DJ |
|
| Carol of the Bells by vaporman | 6 years ago |
I've just posted a couple of "holiday" tunes myself - so I'm going through everyone's Xmas stuff. I have to say, this puts my own efforts to shame. Got to agree with Liquid's post from a year ago - outstanding! A download and one for the pod. Thank you. |
