For me this year's RPM challenge was all about being experimental. For this track I used a plugin called Noises by ADSR Sounds. This plugin comes pre-loaded with a number of sound banks containing samples of many different noise sources. The…

An excellent guitar recording session with Dave!.... There was so much material, I could have made 3 or 4 tracks. But there was only time for one, so we made it a good one! I provided the initial drums and bass backing track for Dave to play…

Here is a completely acoustic (and quite rough, honestly) recording of Dan playing the ukulele. This was actually a first experiment recording with a home made contact microphone held to the body of the ukulele with gluetack. It was essentially…

One more sucessfull collab between Snapper4298 and AlienXXX! With an overlying dark tone, this is a tune that will (probably) keep you on the edge of your seat!

Rework/Remix of a pre-existing piece by Wendingo24. The previous piece contained all the melodic drones and many of the noise and field recording layers. I added additional sound layers and also concentrated on using a number of techniques for…

...and this is version #2, a completely different take on remixing an earlier piece by Wendingo24. This one is much more in line with the initial piece. Although I still wanted to include electric guitar, this piece is mostly acoustic. Very cosy…

Some work with a new collab partner: Wendingo24 from Freesound.org One of 2 remixes I have created based on some earlier recordings by Wendingo24. He provided the acoustic guitar at the start of the track (which I also manipulated to sound like…

Dave has been around with his guitar a few times. This will be the first time one of our collabs makes it to the RPM challenge. We left it quite last minute (Dave had all sorts of other things going on), but managed to get him on Friday 25th…

Another one by Snapper4298 and me.... There is crazy.... and then there is absolutely, insanely, utterly crazy mad... Firstly, it's not even an arpeggiator at all, but never mind that. The melody is crazy, wonky!.... Apologies for the use…

Yep! It's me and Snapper4298 again! This year, we just kept going! Melodically I think this is one of if not THE richest and most beautiful tracks I have ever created :) Sounds so epic!

Another collab with Snapper4298. An electronica track with an old school type beat.

Snapper4298 and me go back a long time (more than 10 years! I couldn't believe it myself!) Great collab partner! This is another electronica piece, with a hint of chiptune (among other things). Don't know why, the piano pat makes me think of…

Dan was mucking around with the bass guitar. I recorded it. Then I took parts of the recording, and quickly added some drums and other parts to it. This one was just a quick job. Nothing too fancy...

A heavy metal track... Since I don't play the guitar (or any other instrument) , all the guitars you hear were created inside my computer...

A spaceship carrying the last remnants of an ancient alien race travels the cosmos looking for a new home its passengers in deep hibernation. But some catastrophic failure affects the ship's systems. The computer is unable to wake up the passengers…
