My 2008 RPM album; nonsensical lyrics, dodgy vocals and some nice tunes here and there.

- Vanilla sex and garlic eyes
I tried this method http://www.songmd.com/col_hitlyr... to get out of my continuing lyricwriting-crisis. At step two of the method you have to write a nonsensical ...

It's easier when you dont care
- It's easier when you don't care
How true! Based on a blogpost-title by my favourite RPMer. I recorded the guitar and bass-parts this year through a Vox Pathfinderamp at relatively neighbourfriendly levels. That worked surprisingly well here I think...

Last day at the office
- Last day at the office
Another nonsense lyric, but I quite like: "a portable swimmingpool, cemented in the lawn, some R&B beeyatch with Gucci flipflops on" I quite like how the sound came out (apart from the vocals as always) Even the pitchshif...

The world's most miserable song
- The worlds most miserable song
This was partly meant for a challenge someone put out in the RPM-forum to make the most tearjerking/depressing song ever. Because of the flu I didn't make the deadline, but that only adds to the miserableism of the wh...

The lost generation
- The lost generation
As if the last one wasn't miserable enough. This lyric is about "the lost generation"; the generation that came right after the babyboom-generation and was more or less written of by the babyboomers in the eighties when a lot of...

- Underachievers Anonymous More nonsense lyrics. I quite like the tune though and the vocals are also acceptable for a change.

Lights speeding home
- Lights speeding home
The lyrics are kinda cliché. I like the tune itself. I tried to make a song similar to Femme Fatale or I'll be your Mirror by the Velvet Underground but it's nothing like that. I though it had a driving-at-night-atmosphere, so ...

I only want to procrastinate
- I only want to procrastinate
I started recording this on 28 february and added lyrics and vocals two hours before midnight the 29th. It's my favourite now though it's kinda dumb. I started with a drumrythm from a crappy Yamaha Portasound keyboard. ...

One big Eurocity
- One big Eurocity The title is nicked from a line in a Tuxedomoon-song. I wanted to have lyrics for this one about travelling and coming across similarities in different cities in Europe. But, alas, no time left. It's an instrumental now.

Nightflight to the sun
- Nightflight to the sun
I made a lot of guitarbased tunes this year so here I started with synths and stuff. I quickly started to sound like an Italodiscotrack so I added the compulsary cheesy lyrics to go with it. Though, like in Vamos a la Playa, ...

Mermaid
- Mermaid
My Casio-tune (for the Casio Challenge) Recorded through a microphone so you can hear me tapping away at the crappy little keys of the SA-3. Since it started to sound very sinister and reminded me also of the sea I wanted to add lyrics abou...
