 I'm digging this. There syncopation in the melodic parts makes me  , while the drums are pretty straightforward and hold down the groove with an anvil.
There are some NASTY feedbacky sounds that infiltrate my cranium quite nicely. And the harmonic content in the sounds is unreal.
Cool bassline as well, lots going on in here, no way could I catch all of it in the 3 or 4 listens I've done so far  Good work!

I can just see you using this to charm a  out of your fez for a crowd after beating it with a drumstick.
It's absolutely fantastic! And the end....oh the end. 
I have no idea what's going on in the background around 2min., but it sounds really

This is crazy. I like the slow counter melodies you pull into the mix around the minute mark or so. It just gets better and better. You have something amazing in this mix. It has a very middle eastern type of feel to it but you do something odd to it.  I agree with CEG about the two minute mark thing.

 This is excellent! I really dig the drum rhythm and bass. the layered arabic sounding melodies your playing in this too! this bit at 1:35~1:40 sec. is magic! The very end is SWEET! Awesome track!  :biglighter:

My head is swaying. I feel like I'm back in Istanbul and the raki is starting to go to my head. The sun is setting on the Bosphorus and I'm enjoying the view. There's a lot of ships and small boats running around in the channel but there is also a tranquility. This piece is like the chaos and calm that reigns in the Bosphorus on a summer evening. The beat is fast but the leads are deliciously slow and wrap themselves in between the beats. And then , when the sun is long gone and the raki bottle is empty and you have no more appetite for the mezes, you are completely relaxed and ready for a good night's sleep. And this piece also has that component as it ends and lowers you down into Morpheus' embrace.

Ooh I'm gettin that Cagey feelin'...god your melodies just grab parts of me and yank them to the other side of my body...(at least that's the feeling I get) this is a classic Cagey House "kickin-on-down-the-road" kinda tune. Thanks Dave!

Chilled, yet twisted.
I love the crash, gives a nice platform.
The different instruments are all equal, and similar. While they are unique to the core.

the tones to this are the thing. there are some great chords and tonal washes you create with the harpy organ tones and synthy lead. the ending is perfect, like an church for acid taking lizards that don't like guys named paul

No guitars...yet I'm getting an effect like a guitar feedback!! You have taken a load of sounds and blended them perfectly (most of us would end up with one hell of a mess if we tried to do this!!) This is kind of quirky, yet purposeful - dramatic, yet inviting...and my brain was going in all kinds of directions! Fantastic!

This is really funky. Great Simple bass line but effective in setting the groove. I always hear sounds on your music that I swear can only come from guitars. As well as the feedback theres sliding, bending and then that main riff which sounds like 16ths funk rythm guitar. Then you'll probably tell me it's the bagpipe sound in fruity loops put through a couple of effects.
Really great funky track with a little bit of Cagey House wierdness.

nice rhythm, that's a cool sound on the hi-hat thingy. Very strange melody, I dig. And then even stranger... strangenesses after the 1:00 mark. Man, that's weird.
WEIRD I SAY.
Weird being, of course, the way things need to be.

Hey, this is classic Cageyhouse stuff! THIS is how you earned that coveted title, "The  Librarian". Only a man working with dusty tomes and mummified remains could come up with this wild sound!

Other than the fact that I'm turning down the volume in advance (which is a sign that I do learn something, as I think I've damaged my ear drums on the last few listens, haha), I'm looking forward to the lastest Dk piece. Strange as hell, as expected. It's like the musical approximation of a bicycle built for two propelled by the teamwork of a sweating cubist painter and a chimney sweep. Anyway, I love the synthy organs, they really set my teeth on edge (don't worry, it's only my way of smiling). Great stuff as usual, man. Don't mind my sense of humor, it's all complimentary in case you're having trouble interpreting. Keep up the good work, drop me a note or a shout if you upload any new confections.
PS I'd love to collab on something. I'll do the drums!

Woah, holy crap man! Crazyness all over the place. Those 3x0scs? Because you really got some nice sounds here. 2:00 - nice high pitched counter/melody thing. Heh, single snare hit. Nice ending. Bizzare, but awesome. Downloaded.

I'm filing all my strange things here cos I think I'm gonna be one of those annoying neighbours who keeps dropping by to borrow a cup of sugar from you (Oh and while I'm here could I just sit down or take a quick look around your house  ) This wonderful treasure chest of music & art you got here is absolutely astonishing Do you have a dog? I could come by & take it for a walk each day....

mmm.. it's been a while since I've listening to your stuff, though it's as psychologically screwed as ever.
I like the cheesy major chords on the organ contradicting the mean bass, sort of like one of those gut-wrenchingly efferverscent Sunday school teachers on happy pills who has a deep seated unquenchable blood thirst for exploding kittens and orphans.
Terrific stuff

Great beat----solid “less is more” bass line and WAY cool Cagey melodies. I’m over my limit of clever things to say today so I can’t talk about the “blood thirst for exploding kittens and orphans” or the “snake out of your fez” and especially not “the musical approximation of a bicycle built for two propelled by the teamwork of a sweating cubist painter and a chimney sweep.” I just can’t do that but I will say that this is Classic librarian material and just frankly terrific stuff!
