Love these spacey vibes in the Drifter tracks. You keep it minimalist without it ever feeling repetitive. Nice interesting hits right where they're needed. This might be my favorite so far
Thank you so much for the lovely comments Ricia!!! I'm so glad you liked these pieces because I was really feeling mixed on these and it's great to get feedback like this in the last stretch of RPM!
Also, if you're interested in more piano stuff like this, this album by h hunt was my main inspiration and it's just lovely all round: https://youtu.be/wXj7YHcrOeM
Yeah!!!!! Love this!!!! Seriously awesome. The combination of electronics and piano is sublime. The spacing is right on too. I'm going to sit at my piano now :)
Thanks Mikey and Dweeb! It's funny I was actually just listening to your album, Dweeb, when you posted this! I'll definitely keep up the practice and it means so much any time someone takes time out to listen so I really do appreciate it. Comments like have been incredibly motivational.
Song 7 for my RPM challenge. Thanks to anyone who listens :)
words of wisdom
songs of pride
try your best but you
can’t live the other side
keep it coming
try not to know
remember one day
we will reap just what we sow
do your…
That combination of your vocals and the instrumentals is fascinating; your voice has a noir feel to it but then that bass line and drums that come in midway take the track in a completely different direction!

Looking at your resume, one key takeaway is there ain’t a single thing you know
Comparing the candidates I gotta say candidly there ain’t no place you can go
So we make an offer of a minimum salary
What do you think of it? Does this make you…
"Reviewing all the workers you’re nothing but a shirker you done no work today" seems really directed at me while I listen to yours and other RPM albums at work! I also really enjoyed the interplay between your different vocal styles and makes me think 'Closing Down' might actually work really well as a duet!
Bonus points if you can figure out what this song is about before the end of the first verse.

Lol, I keep trying to write this comment while relistening to the track and my comment just keeps getting removed when the next track pops up so here goes one final time :D
You can't have that prompt in the beginning and not give a clear answer! It was really fun listening to this for the first time and trying to follow the story, and Olivia's vocals work so harmoniously with your lyrics and melodies. Plus, that Harmonica (?), uff, just takes this to another level of folk awesomeness!
Written and recorded as part of our family RPM project this year. :-D
13 year old Jasmine on vocals and ukulele.
We wrote and recorded 10 songs under the name Cattica. It was just the best month of lockdown imaginable.

Oh nice, I love the wonky mournfulness of that lead synth
Lovely string writing!
Such a cool buildup and drop. I love the timbres you get in the latter half of this!
Thanks Ricia, always great to see a fellow RPMer!
Yes! Very cool.
This is great. Great juxtaposition of string and beats!

Another beautiful piece. You are using all my favourite chords. So glad I found your stuff.

Lovely....really beautiful!!!! Has that contemplative and mournful feel I like. Wow. That ending is gorgeous too.
