some things in life are pleasant in repetition. this is such a thing. the bass creates energy. the synthesizers create sparkles. the music creates desire for repetition. it is good. 0x0
Just to set the record straight I wrote this song before the movie Wall-E came out. If you've watched the movie Wall-E my song is basically along the same lines of how humans have messed up Earth. It's not a happy song if that's what you are…
Cool and rather unique sound to this song. I was not much of a fan for the dry-sounding raspy bass synth that sometimes appeared in my left ear (would have preferred a softer sound, or back further, more reverb?) But the rest of this was super-cleanly mixed, very crisp sound (stop making me lust after logic!) :-)

Adam,
Love the guitar line and counterpunctal vocal. Great drums. Excellent build. Has an "early Silverchair meets Jack Bruce" vibe about it. Like this a lot.
Thanks for the heads up!!

Beautiful. I kept waiting for some more instrumentation to kick in but I enjoy the sparseness of it. Maybe bring down the volume of the guitar solo around 1:50. Great lyrics. Great job!
For The Good of The Colony: a song about a people who traded in their rights for the sense of pastoral protection.
LYRICS:
bored subdued confused, bored subdued confused, for the good of the colony, for the good of the colony, give up your…
This one is dedicated to my dear friend John. Thanks for changing my life for the better....
Also a big thanks to our own Greg Connor who helped me get the chords for my own uke accompaniment, and who kindly played the beautiful guitars…
While living in Seattle I knew a guy named Larry. Larry was one of the "pretty" people of the world and had most women drooling over him. He met and married Denise... Also one of the "pretty" people of the world. But Denise could not seem to…
Starts off sounding like a chord progression for the Red Hot Chili Peppers (I think the opening lyrics are "My friends are so depressed." Another excellent track! I think the cymbal splashes might be a little loud in spots but everything is mixed really well!
This is the first cover song I've ever really recorded in my 15 years of playing and recording.
The guitar and voice are each full continuous takes, I didn't want to do comping (copy and pasting), though the vocal harmony parts were done in…
This is maybe the first track written entirely by This Caustic Autumn as a group effort. I'd been to see Sigur Ros play at Massey Hall in Toronto the night before we wrote this, so that's where the idea for the bowed Les Paul came from. Other…
Love all the bloops and blips. Nice synth lead line. Great transition at the one minute mark. The drums get a tab redundant but nothing major. Nice ending with just the bass.
A further march down the road in acl's evolution - and one of the many directions we've been dying to get to... it's, ummm, water-y. (And this song is especially dedicated to J Wentz.)
This is a song from a year or so again - from my CD "jiguma dreaming". It features Alf Solti on keys, Thor Oliversen on lead guitar, Anne Cozean and Jan Porter on backing vox, and me on Fender precision bass, Telecaster, Seagull acoustic, vocals…
Glad to see you on here Neil! This is a tasty track Neil (especially the guitar). My only complaint is that I would tone back the cymbal crashes a little bit. The backing vocals are great and so are the keys. Post some more songs Neil!

you have a great voice! very clean sound.
Really clean, clear vocals. Nicely done! Guitar sounds very cool too as you have it panned! It almost sounds drop tuned... Is it?
catchy! Nice vocals and lyrics.
Nice!

This one sounds like James Taylor (the guitar playing). Nice melody line!

Nice and phat! Yeah! Full of synth goodness. Scorching!
Wow! Nice. This builds really nicely. Reminds me a lot of NIN. Sweet!
Very original! Pretty cool. Love the voice saying "Can we hide."
Nice bass line! Great atmosphere and textures throughout!

Like the drums Mark. The vocals are also great. Sounds like Dire Straits in spots. Super retro vibe.
Great acoustic recording! Great performance! I've never heard of Iron and Wine before. I'll have to check Samuel Beam out. Fantastic!
That's pretty bad-ass. Sounds like it clips in spots but this is excellent. Right up my alley.

This is mixed very well. Great dreamy music. The perfect music to wake up to.
