| number one, i don't think i got, or somehow missed, the email of you posting this. it's gotten to the point that i look forward to hearing you sing--particularly the harmonies. lyrics come in a close second. sardonic as guessed--and of course, that's what i count on. |

| @Bachthoven ...that is until that one last high harmony. that's a doozy...haha! |

| So Very Far by sammydix | 9 hours ago |
| @jibes thanks man. tried the snippet thang. @woofer3 well, i leaning more towards Fripp in this one. glad you listened, woof. @C_Man thans C. sometimes one can actually have fun alone if you're doing something you enjoy. @Deebeesea are you daring me? oh, Diane, it's on now... @scaustrita yep. poorly trying to imitate my favorite prog band. long live the King! @zagneek thanks zag. the lyrics: thela hun jinjeet (i think it's with j's) |

| The Trials, Traumas & Tribulations Of A Medieval Monk Detective by zagneek | 18 hours ago |
| like a train chugging along and nothing better stand in its way...except when it stopped for gas, that back to a total driving groove. | |
| Luna Clareo (moon shine) by A1K3M1 | 1 day ago |
| number 9, number 9, number 9.... of the 21st Century. now that was definitely completely different. would you believe i have some CDs with songs similar to this? very unstructured and right-brained muse in use. +++ |

| Big Spender by RubyDubidoux | 1 day ago |
| always secretly like this song. as far as the style, it's second only to "Fever." man i love that song. this version didn't disappoint one bit. now i can never hear this again without visualizing Pharm's comment pic. |
|
| So Very Far by sammydix | 1 day ago |
| @RubyDubidoux thanks Elaine. i started jammin and just kept going. fortunately, you get the edited version. @a1k3m1 Get Wild is my favorite after showering and before going out for the evening. i'm still a little clumsy on bass, but i think i'm getting better and a touch more daring. that's partially due to you guys. i checked out Eddie's website and he makes about the most "off-beat" synth songs i've heard. i had to get in touch with him after i wrote this and he came thru perfectly. think he uses Tal(?). very cool guy and easy as hell to work with. |

| Cry Baby Blues by pharmakeus | 1 day ago |
| awesome tone on that guitar, but should i be surprised? she's just cryin'. i'm just smilin'. | |
| The Letter by OldShepster | 1 day ago |

| So Very Far by sammydix | 1 day ago |
| @zarizarikun LOL!!! dude, i like you! so few *get* me weird sense of humor. |
|
| So Very Far by sammydix | 1 day ago |
| @Vixen felt like partying up...but there's a price to pay... @zarizarikun hey zari! thanks for listening, but if you use a Japanese/English dictionary, please scratch out the phrase, "much enjoyed" haha!!! @pharmakeus had to let go of the Prince in me. not fun tho, just too high for my voice. @OldShepster i know a "shep" from my daw site. lives in Jolly ol' Eng. thanks for the visit, new shep. |

| Ode to Billy Joe by Vixen | 2 days ago |
| that was my high point of the day. high notches to you both for this original remake. absolutely great. | |
| Hide and seek [ Sheets ] by zarizarikun | 3 days ago |
| until now, i never knew what you meant by "Sheets," now i do. like that guitar tremelo. | |
| Working on a Memory by nlsn | 4 days ago |
| sounds a little "darker" nlsn. but it's the song i was into. another fine work. | |
| Fool on Fire by mfwmiles | 4 days ago |
| even tho i understand via our communications, still a tease! but an even better one this time. kudos to Pharm. |
|
| Tragic One by Neumuzik | 4 days ago |
| that's some gritty loudness! like the little percussion sound that pops in and strings are a nice touch too. who/what's Borris? |
|
| The Capital Wall by Bachthoven | 5 days ago |
| different sound, but that BH melody still shines thru as with the harmonies. | |
| God Forbid and Don't Bother by brewchugger | 5 days ago |
| after hearing this, i actually wondered why you two hadn't teamed up sooner. excellent match. fantastic bass line and the chorus sticks with you. | |
| new galaxy by zarizarikun | 7 days ago |
| lovely...again. dude, where did you pop up from? | |
| Real You (Radio Edit) by Axelbreeze | 8 days ago |
| pretty wild and dynamic Axel. i really like your productions. Sierra indeed does have that Madonna sound to her voice. but yeah, it's pretty loud in the mix. | |
| When I Close My Eyes by mfwmiles | 8 days ago |
| Miles, leave it to me to be bold enough to say your songs are **irritatingly** short. that is, if they were mediocre, everyone could say their nicey nice stuff and move on. but your songs are generally so GOOD (that's with 100% sincerity for the bit that's there) that it's just a tease, then it's done. Do you write jingles or something on the side? I personally say please write longer songs or *worse* ones to make the shortness tolerable. |
|
| I'm On My Way (from nowhere) by Vixen | 8 days ago |
| yep, this does have that 60s feel, i thought of Mamas/Papas first when i heard it. got an "exciting" flow to it. with your vocal additions. | |
| If Ever You Change Your Mind by RetroTrend | 8 days ago |
| i get that same sense of motion. no time to be still when listening to this. | |
| Open Your Eyes by Bachthoven | 9 days ago |
| great vocal arrangement first off. goes good with that island feel. | |
| O, Superman by pharmakeus | 9 days ago |
| totally unexpected remake. expressive vocals makes this work...along with that sweet guitar that pops later. agreed that this is one of your very best. didn't miss those ha ha ha ha ha's at all. | |
| Night cherry blossom [ SANPACHI ] by zarizarikun | 10 days ago |
| i don't understand, ZuriZ, you say you're on guitar and your friends on bass and synth, but you have "only loops" that an error? still as beautiful as ever. your now biggest fan. Sam |
|
| The deep sea [ SANPACHI ] by zarizarikun | 10 days ago |
| wonderful. got it. | |
| The Geisha "Willow Leaf" by ihussain | 10 days ago |

| Head in the Sand by mfwmiles | 11 days ago |
| not your area? well, then i guess it's the blues mfw style. sounds good to me.... briefly. |

| Femalla Fabulae (f. girl talk) by A1K3M1 | 11 days ago |
"Thanks for sharing that with us."![]() |
|
| Femalla Fabulae (f. girl talk) by A1K3M1 | 11 days ago |
| sorry for missing a few and being a little late, but you--like some others-are just too prolific and fast for me to even try to keep up. but i make it when i can. that said, i do love the music parts of this and how the arrangement is layered with textures. but i can listen to it only once since 'whispering' makes my flesh crawl--like nails on chalk board--weird huh? i'm prob the only human being alive that suffers from this "affliction." ha! |
|
| Usually by RetroTrend | 11 days ago |
| haven't i heard this before? whether or not, i knew Tony was on guitar from the first note. | |
| Starry sky by zarizarikun | 14 days ago |
| my fav new icomp friend. since me and my "date" are still up, we took a listen. she likes it too. | |
| snow on the moon [ Sheets ] by zarizarikun | 16 days ago |
| i really like your style zari. you've just gotten a big, big fan. | |
| Route 66 by pharmakeus | 16 days ago |
| ha! you know i had to laugh when i saw your song pic. looks like we were in the same "state of mind." best quality for this rendition: fun as hell to listen to. you know i loved that harp. |
|
| Morning Awaits by Deebeesea | 17 days ago |
| man, LaF is THE go to dude it seems. the surprising part is that the quality holds up...or maybe not so surprising. cool melody you added, DB, gelled just nicely. | |
| Over This by Grades | 17 days ago |
| yep, the first thing that comes to mind is "tight," like Pharm stated. still lovin Chris's voice. cool big sound and recording. you guys are really good together. |
|
| Speak Low by grathy | 17 days ago |
| LaF is everywhere! very cool rendition and the tone on that solo guitar just melts in your ears. lovely vocals on to top it off. | |
| Over This - Acoustic by Grades | 17 days ago |
| man i really like Chris's voice. lots of power and feeling. he prob sounds great live. just as cool syncopated strumming on the guits. like those chords. do you three play locally? | |
| Lets Make A Garden Inside our Hearts by mfwmiles | 17 days ago |
| another self-contained nugget. how do you pack so much in so little? somehow this still sounds complete. Elaine nailed it, you've got a knack for catchy melodies. might send you a music only collab and just say "sing something." | |
| Radiation Overdose by A1K3M1 | 18 days ago |
| two different styles that actually work really well together. kinda neo-jazzy. | |
| Got Walk by sammydix | 18 days ago |
| @Bachthoven thanks man. @woofer yeah, me too. @A1K3M1 glad some of the family listened. thanks so much Chris. @Vixen yeah, me too. @nlsn thank you nlsn, but done with that for a while. @brewchugger hey man. i used a lite jazz chamber convo to give it all a roomy feel. @grathy thanks. |
|
| ocean by zarizarikun | 18 days ago |
| right off i loved the chords. just coolly eerie. beautiful melody too. why temporary? are you going to work on it some more? | |
| Gold by sammydix | 18 days ago |
| kon chiwa zari! found my old stuff. thanks for checking me out. |
|
| New Jesus (open for collab) by JCLeonard | 18 days ago |
| i like the chord progressions you used. i've heard you sing on a different song, and you don't have a bad voice. you just like working with others? | |
| Police Dog Blues by mikebms | 19 days ago |
| what i like most about this is its starkness. just voice and guitar is all that's needed for full impact. | |
| All That I Have/I Know It's True by Bachthoven | 19 days ago |
| long time no hear man! good to hear you back. always love those vocals and melodies. got em in loads here. | |
| Got Walk by sammydix | 19 days ago |
| @Darkmuse yeah, this is one of those type songs i just challenge myself with. i listen to this style more than write it. @mfwmiles got tons of it dude... |
|
| Got Walk by sammydix | 19 days ago |
| @ShadowofNine hey Dave. enough of the "smoothness" now. feeling ready for something different. tho i don't know what...yet. |
|
| November (open for collab) by JCLeonard | 19 days ago |
| what's to add? sounding fairly complete to me...unless you're gonna lengthen it.... | |
| Oh (open for collab) by JCLeonard | 19 days ago |
| i was doing some spontaneous singing along with this and ended up sounding like Trent. i've got a few things in the can right now, but i'd love to give something in the future a try. | |
| Got Walk by sammydix | 19 days ago |
| @LaFayette those legs were just *made* for walking. thanks LaFayette. |
|
| Hispani Aro Veho (the Spaniards ships sail) by A1K3M1 | 20 days ago |
| no hyperbole, but this was quite excellent. | |
| Let's Start a Revolution by mfwmiles | 20 days ago |
| well....yeah. more like a teaser. a few moments of pleasure is better than none, i suppose. | |
| Burn by Grades | 20 days ago |
| song's got some really good dynamics and power. nice n open sound. my only nit is the lead vocal sounds a hair too loud...at least in the beginning. dunno, tho. could be just right. | |
| Beast That Desires by Darkmuse | 20 days ago |
| some solid rocking going on. GREAT lead break. fav part. | |
| Lautaro is back by MusicLeft | 20 days ago |
| now that was about the classiest song i've heard in some time. very very smart music. pretty wonderful. | |
| Got Walk by sammydix | 20 days ago |
| @Figurochi ...so difficult i had to wing it. |
|
| Got Walk by sammydix | 20 days ago |
| @MusicLeft thanks ML. @SISTERS lol! there goes my tea. |
|
| Summer rain by zarizarikun | 21 days ago |
| now this is a cool change from your usual. very earthy and i love that trem guitar. | |
| Dallas by mikebms | 21 days ago |
| now that was one cool surprise. perfect vocals are nearly negligible when you listen to the 'whole.' loved it. | |
| Got Walk by sammydix | 21 days ago |
| @jibes trying to stretch my vocal chops. my last band was hard rock/metal, so i'm used to screaming a lot. this is a complete turn-around-- stylistically and vocally--for me. not used to trying to sing with "style." @mikebms i usually play my own "normal" bass, but with the upright, i generally sing the part, then convert my voice to midi and drive it with Kontakt. sounds more natural has has more dynamics that way for me than if i played it on my keyboard. i'm pretty clumsy. |
|
| Got Walk by sammydix | 21 days ago |
| @becwil wasn't sure of the harmonies, but i think i made some weird chords. thanks so much Becca. @RubyDubidoux attitude she does have. thanks. @theironsaul thanks for the visit. @zarizarikun i tried to get another guitarist and organist, but i think it was a bad time for both (this was written just before the holiday season). @Neumuzik the rhythm guitar and organ (freeware azr3) is me . the horns are Ueberschall--instruments played by real musicians, but you can 'bend' the audio to your liking. sorta like Melodyne for instruments. not quite midi, and not quite samples. |
|
| No Mas Dias y No Mas Noches by sammydix | 21 days ago |
| hey neu. still discovering old stuff. at least you can see the progression (hopefully there's progress). | |
| Steal Away by RubyDubidoux | 21 days ago |
| those chords just make you ache. wonderful spacious mix on top. the sparse voice and guitars were a perfect choice. this is REALLY good. | |
| Always by theironsaul | 21 days ago |
| always love your production first off. voice still sounding strong like the melody. |
|
| Got Walk by sammydix | 21 days ago |
| @scaustrita hahaha! you said, "sassy" |
|
| Senza di Te - from Captain Corelli's Mandolin by ihussain | 21 days ago |
| i don't know the original, but this is good on its own. lovely arrangement. | |
| Foreign Stranger by sammydix | 21 days ago |
| @ihussain cool of you to say. thx. |
|
| Rainbow [ SANPACHI ] by zarizarikun | 22 days ago |
| so far, everything i've heard from you pulls out an emotion. quite excellent mood music you make. | |
| Foreign Stranger by sammydix | 22 days ago |
| @KCsGROOVE double thanks KC. |
|
| Mister H. by LaFayette | 24 days ago |
| Angelo said it best--perfect chill factor with some extremely cool ambiance textures. | |
| Foreign Stranger by sammydix | 24 days ago |
| @LaFayette thanks for stopping by LaF. |
|
| Invention #1 - Does Anybody Want to Make it by mfwmiles | 24 days ago |
| gatta say you do have a knack for melody. prob my fav aspect of your talent. one nit: tho i've never heard this with any consistency in your recordings, there is a bit of "hollowness" in this mix. hardly any bassiness coming thru for that solid "oomph" to ground everything, even for a non-crowded piece like this one. it sounds good, it sounds clear, ...but "lite." |
|
| Afternoon Nap (Live) by brewchugger | 24 days ago |
| this is one of those songs that you simply ease into. nothing uninviting to keep you away. the fact that it's live...well, i wouldn't mind being in the audience that night. | |
| Agony (Radio Edit) by Axelbreeze | 24 days ago |
| man, you're sounding better every time i hear you after a break. really cool recording. | |
| Confessions of a Bookings Taker by Vixen | 24 days ago |
| that was so good it was scary. what a poet! very interesting side of you. | |
| Foreign Stranger by sammydix | 24 days ago |
| @SISTERS deja vu? @vavsonka thanks for the double listen! similar melody, completely different song. @Axelbreeze thanks man. @brewchugger damn! i didn't even think of the harp! where were you when i needed you? @woofer3 much thanks woof. i had an earlier version that was just bass and guitars, but it just bored me, so i added the little keys parts weeks later to spice it up a bit. @Vixen can't i read just ONE of your comments w/o a good laugh? i'm sure you still shake it just fine! |
|
| Soul Song by MellyGrove | 24 days ago |
| love the chill feel of this tune. could bring those percs up a bit, tho. | |
| "Java Tyme" collab by abzwork | 24 days ago |
| you and Chris have a nice blend when you get together. starting to always look forward to that guitar... | |
| Bright Side of the Sun by RetroTrend | 24 days ago |
| Solar mix as compared to...? there's another version? the voice kinda surprised me when this first started. thought it was a collab. | |
| spads at dawn by woofer3 | 24 days ago |
| Never heard of the Prologue before, now pardon my ignorance, are you playing the real hardware or an emulated version? sounds good either way. i'll be watching for the Vixen collob! | |
| Back in Heaven by pharmakeus | 24 days ago |
| agreed on that delivery. i think that's one of your strongest points. it's like you "feel" more than you just "do." if that makes sense. | |
| The Dugong Hunt [2012] by pharmakeus | 26 days ago |
| loved how you recorded your voice in this song. don't know what you did, but it sounds a bit different to me and i like the effect. the guitars are my second fav parts. man, you truly are quite a versatile musician, Pharm. a lot of respect for that. | |
| Edurus Ab Configo (very hard to pin down) by A1K3M1 | 26 days ago |
almost kept expecting somebody to bust out a rhyme. if i could rap, i'd ask you if i could collab. unfortunately, i suck at rappin. play that funky almost hip-hop white boy... ![]() |
|
| "Devcatko" Earth by vavsonka | 26 days ago |
| Devcatko has a very mesmerizing quality. you can just sit back and let it soak into you. very well done. | |
| In the First Light by pharmakeus | 27 days ago |
| i'm starting to recognize your guitar playing like your distinctive voice. all comes down to *style*. particularly like the off timings. great lyrics...as expected. | |
| Foreign Stranger by sammydix | 27 days ago |
| @nlsn thanks nlsn. i used guitars galore! two acoustics and 4 clean electrics--courtesy of Poulin Le456 and Boogex--i forget the convo IR amp since i burned it in--might have been Orange. @pharmakeus very Latin percs. one of my top fav styles of music--particularly Salsa. luv it!!! |
|
| Only You (RAdioEditMix) by C_Man | 27 days ago |
| grooves awesome. so much soul. wonderful voice+pro mix=hit stuff. |
|
| This Joke Has Gone Too Far by mfwmiles | 27 days ago |
| fantastic how you put this together...snippet into next snippet. pretty unique thruout. | |
| Foreign Stranger by sammydix | 27 days ago |
| @A1K3M1 most of the sounds are from freeware synths. but you know kontakt has to be in there somewhere. thx. @mfwmiles thanks man. still working on that arrangement part in tunes. @neumuzik enjoyed singing on your latest, Neu. offered quite a change for me. glad you stopped over. @C_Man a lot of folk get that Santana feel, me too now when i listen. but hhmoses pretty much got the direct influence. @scaustrita then sign me up dude! |
|
| Foreign Stranger by sammydix | 27 days ago |
| @hiphopmoses nailed it! @jibes not Sam and Henno, just Sam. the version w/Henno is the link in the song info. thanks fellaz |
|
| Tremolo summer by zarizarikun | 27 days ago |
| wonderful, relaxing song, zari. it gave me a sense of floating within a beautiful void w/o a care. so good for clearing the mind. loved this. | |
| Thiasus (band of revellers) by A1K3M1 | 27 days ago |
| ok, this was a bit different for you. i see you're definitely not trapped in a corner as far as your creativity is concerned. the expanding mind of A1K3M1. | |
| The Black Room : Spacious by shadesofdown | 27 days ago |
| man, i could really be creative in that room in your pic--esp if the window scene was like a garden or some type of natural view. all i'd replace would be that chair. the music fits here as well. really cool for 1st run-thru's. has a clubby, live feel to it. i like this singular jam. |
|
| Again w/Sisters by sammydix | 27 days ago |
| @zarizarikun thanks again man! just a fun song to do. |
|
| Foreign Stranger by sammydix | 27 days ago |
| @ShadowofNine had to make due man. my keyboard skills aren't up there with yours, so just did what i could. thank you, Dave. |
