RPM 2011 number 2. Inspired by an ex-friend of mine who had the most dazzling rose tinted glasses. Always used to envy the simplicity of his view and how nothing could ever get to him (everything gets to me).. since i knew him I know a lot of…
Tell me can you teach me bout your finely written poetry
Dont care about the content I just want to make em notice me

Hi everyone.. I wrote this song for Archie Watson, son of my dear friends Lauren and Bradley Watson, who sadly was diagnosed with Tay-Sachs disease just before Christmas. Tay-sachs is a rare genetic disorder for which there is currently no cure…
A folksy number inspired by the stories my nan told me many moons ago about her uncle Herbie..
Herein lies the story, of a man named Herbie Jones.
Not a million miles away from a man you might have known.
A miner in the twenties, blue scars…
Like your sound. Maybe a tad less f/x on your voice. I want to understand your words. What are you recording on? (jamesmichaeltaylor@jamesmichaeltaylor.com)
It aint like no ones done this before
But how can you tire of beautiful chords
In the fifties
In Tenessee
Where my love
was born
Two young men upped and
crossed the yard
both cold cos it was rainin hard.
One of them turned said…
No im not happy and no im not sad, no im not good but i know im not bad. No i wont go there, but no i wont stay, no im not straight but no im not gay, no need to tell me i know im not right, no happy endings and no end in sight. I got no way of…
DEEP WITHIN THE HISS, LURKS A SONG!!

It's one that sits in your brain
Without room for another one

and its there it remains
until it ruins the other songs

There are things I cannot do without x2

I'll run to the nearest 'things I cannot do without' store

Are you in touch with your past?
Do you remember before?
Are you scared of this world?
Are there locks on your door?
Is there anyone here,
who can prove that they are?
Are we anywhere near
To having too far x2
Are we anywhere near?
Are you…

this came on straight after savages eclipsed. really worked alongside it. i think there might be cause for a chillout playlist.. if there isnt one. really dreamy this.. like it alot. im still not sure what she'd do though.. cat woman, even after listening all the way through. ill let you know if i work it out..
I'm tired now, and I think I'll take a few days off from RPM. I need one more tune and that shouldn't be to tough to do.
Thanks everyone,
I'll be in touch soon.

sorry for the silence
i'm not ignoring you.....

oh yes yes yes.. this is incredible kavin. its got that voice you can trust thing to it like the American era Cash stuff. Makes you think.. this man knows.. this man's lived! brilliant, as is the playing, naturally. :)
Hey Kids, Happy RPM. Surf's up! I played this one for my lady, she said she wants to move to California. I'm not sure if that's because I've been wired up in the Dog House for 9 days or if she wishes to try some surfing. Go figure....
Anyway…
smoooooooooooov... really like this one. Its got the surfy thing, but its also quite creepy and dark sounding.. and also reminds me of t-rex.. nice one slick!! :)
By no means the first song that popped out. It's just the first one I'm calling done beyond a remix. I think this will wind up leading in to a metal tune and will likely be shorter.
Worked on this track for a *long* time. Learnt a lot but it's time to call it done and move on to something else. Am pretty happy with it all in all.
Sounds include samples of me clapping and the Snowdon steam train heavily processed with Ableton…
really like this one colin.. s'got a big wad of potential id say and i second kirks comment on the guitar work. could there be some backing vox sort of responding to the main lyrics in the second verse and maybe chorus? oh and id put glockenspiel chords all through it too - in answer to your request for suggestions! Good luck with the rest mucker
To everyone missing.

I found silver in your mouth
on a holiday
found stories in your eyes
beautiful as mould
6000 miles away
I finally recalled
the secrets on your skin
in scars and birthmarks
open wounds
secret stories of…
Rell Sunn, the Queen of Makaha, was a beautiful spirit and graceful surfer who lives in the hearts of all who knew her before she was called back home.
This is the first tune for my 2010 RPM Challenge.
A bit short...my first attempt earlier in the evening (completely different tune) I ended up scrapping at 1:30 a.m., so this one was done in just a few minutes...
Written and Recorded: Feb…

I was walking down the street
Looking for a place to eat
When I saw a legless man praying for lost souls.
He had Electric Jesus on a tape recorder
And every time he played it the tape got shorter
Until all that was left was the…
Lyrics:
Later in the evening, and I heard sirens all around.
Then I get up this morning, Seabrook Plant had melted down.
I turned on my radio, they told me “this is not a test.”
“You’ll most likely be a mutant by the morning but we wish…
