This song was written for Tony Sly of No Use For A Name - He passed away July of 2013.
His music helped me through quite a bit as a kid and influenced me as a musician. I never thought I would miss a person I had never met but here I am.
A worship song for the times you feel hopelessly lost.

Oh Lord I don't know what to do
When I find myself, far away from you
and every prayer always comes back to this
I don't know what to do please pull me through
and I 'm so tired…

Funny how much of a different message I hear listening to it during these times compared to the first time I heard you sing it! You are a talented soul- thank you for sharing your gifts!
This is a cover of L17's cover of WIlsuns Album Departure. I took out all of the unnecessary bits and the starts and stops. It was like Covering Wilsun's 8 songs, then Tim's eight songs, but also Tim's one big song... Making this like.. 17 covers…
This is a remarkable piece of art. Using the drums from Boys Don't Cry is an inspired bit of brilliance....
And bonus points for the emotional yelling in Goodbye. :)
Cover off of Letter Seventeen's 2020 RPM album. Tried to do the opposite of imitating him, imitating someone else. This was one of the most time consuming songs I have ever done. I manually gated the Kick and Toms which takes a long time(and is…
This is truly wonderful and is a brilliant reinterpretation of our song. In particular, I love the little bit where you double time the kick in the chorus.
Here is a cover of Matt Ferrara's song "Obey" - Had this song stuck in my head for a good chunk of February, so I figured I would put it to tape. A little slower than the original with a similar feel.
I really wanted to see if I could record…
Brian of A Beautiful Scene wrote an amazing tune for the 2020 A Beautiful Scene RPM record and I couldn't get it out of my head. I hope I did it justice.
(updated May 10 with a slightly different mix)
Written for the April 2020 RPM mini-challenge. I hoped for an EP and ended up with a single song. The song is largely recorded on a T25 mic I built for Brian of A Beautiful Scene as a means to test the mic. It's pretty solid if you ask me…
This song perfectly encapsulates the feeling towards writing music, especially for RPM. Even with it's light humour, it still has a weight to it that commands an emotional response for all of those who have written a catalogues worth of songs. Well done Tim!

One thing I like about covers is turning a song on its head, so that's what I did with this tune from the great ABS album "The Far Side Of Paradise". I hope I made Lane proud.
I love Wilsun's 2020 RPM album "Departure", so I decided to cover it (yes, the whole album), but with a twist. I found some bits to be repetitive, so I removed them. I wrote down the lyrics and chords, and promptly ignored the originals, making…
Taken from the album ‘The Weight Of Water’, from 2007. (This is a new mix, for 2014.)
Written and performed by Rog Hildreth.
Sometimes I challenge myself to write and record a song from scratch in a single day. This is a story song which…
It is nice to see a band returning to rock roots and evolving their sound from there. Instead of that modern rock sound like Nickleback that has been sweeping the nation. Bravo gentlemen, bravo.

Pouring Rain by A Beautiful Scene
This year I thought of you, far too many times
And it’s made me think
Of things that’ve become over there and they…
And how do I know…
I love your take on this song! this is one of those songs I wrote and recorded in one night, so the guitar wasn't really thought out. You made it sound beautiful. I love the second guitar in place of the organ as well. Very well done sir.
I've gone more acoustic for this piece with bass and guitars courtesy of Jaz Arwand and the lovely, airy sound of Jess Spencer's voice. The song is about empathy or lack thereof.

Wow...this is amazing.
Great tune!
wide open and great production. love it
Oooh. Pretty!
This is a lot better than my version. Awesome work! FWIW the title is "In The Eye". :P
YES.
That riff is tasty; very, very tasty! And I love the vox delivery...great song!
I love every aspect of this song; the mix, the performance, the writing, all of it.
Wow, great song. Great song!
Out of the gate...this one grabs you instantly. It's a great counterpoint to Part 1.
This is an anthem! Great song!
I love how this song almost pulses out of the speakers at me. Great cut!
That's pretty powerful.
Funny how much of a different message I hear listening to it during these times compared to the first time I heard you sing it! You are a talented soul- thank you for sharing your gifts!
This is great!

You guys knocked it out of the park here.

I love this! I love this song and love what you did with the cover :)
Sounds great! Love this song.

Love the new mix! Nailed those "slidey" guitar parts!

Wonderfully done Tim!
Quite beautiful indeed! Nice dig on cover this particular one!
Haha haha! It really is Boy’s don’t cry. Great cover!
This is an incredible RPM album - Well done!
Just going through your tunes, you have a lot of good stuff in here. I look forward to hearing more of it!
Love your songs and your sound. Definitely one of the most talented artists I have heard. Appreciate your music and hope you make a lot more of it.

There is some good stuff here mate. I think you need to find yourself a good lyricist/ singer and make a record.
This is the darkest, most poppy song I have ever heard. I like it. I would love to hear more like it in the future of music...
I love your take on this song! this is one of those songs I wrote and recorded in one night, so the guitar wasn't really thought out. You made it sound beautiful. I love the second guitar in place of the organ as well. Very well done sir.
This reminds me of the Cardigans in a very good way. A lot less poppy and quite dark which shows passion. Very good track!
