I heard a story about you
I didnt want it to be true
But it felt like it might
You, well it was all about you
and how the things that you do
Seem strangely undone
And life doesnt help out the weak
A lifetime tends to bring you some…

Just a fragment.. but thought it was worth including..
If I were to lose you now
I don't know that I could cope
Please don't leave me now, don't go
You're my only hope.
Based around a fragment I came up with around 10 years ago in University believe it or not, while I was learning to play guitar. As you can see, I was homesick. :) Thanks so much to Gary for adding a bit of spice with the bass, lead guitar and…

In response to a suggestion of Dr. Ozan Yarman I tried a tuning he created for a different project. I realized the composition using Garritan Personal Orchestra Baroque organs, Garritan World sample set Oud and Santoor samples performed on an…
A track from my RPM 2011 album 'Glass Wall'.
I just whipped this up in Garage Band using a loop called 'Exotic Sarod' for the main melodic theme (hence the title). The Sarod is an Indian stringed instrument. 'Sarod' means 'beautiful sound' in…
This RPM Challenge album had a bit of a ying-yang vibe to it. Compare "Marbles" to "Constellations" and "Fisher In The Sky" to "Tied By The Lies".
This wasn't planned - it just sort of happened.

A Sword and Sorcery parody. With Elvis.
Daughter Brit sang the vocal in the middle part.
Elvis was the mountain king
Who ruled the land of El-Karyaang
His wife Priscilla lady fair

It's kind of funny how you can intend to create electronica, and then end up blindly wandering into a different sub-genre. The end result almost sounds like it wanted to be stoner rock.

Lyrics:
Skip ahead to her in pants,
watch her dance in the living room
in front of all the other dinner guests.
She thumbs her nose at simulacra,
but someone must play Cleopatra
in the PTA's yearly drama fest.
Her husband broke his body…
This song was inspired by a melody my then 2 year old daughter was playing on the harmonica one day back in 2004. I picked up my guitar and strummed along....I kept playing around with it and "Caught in the Rain" was born.
This was one of several songs I recorded in a session on the night of my 29th birthday. I had decided to just start playing and see how many tunes I could write straight through without stopping. My only rule was that these tunes had to be totally…

I wanted to have a banjo fiddle tune but i still haven't learnt to play either instrument, so this is my famous 1 string banjo technique, with mandolin and guitar. It's style is inspired by meeting Morgan O'Kane and Ferd 4 last…

A playful tune made up on the spot as a studio demonstration. Really quite silly! If you listen closely you can hear my wife questioning the use of the small diaphragm mic on the vocal track.
Final version
RPM 2011 - my first track recorded and the opening track for the CD
A kind of Old Time gospel number, which, if you listen to those pre-war guitar playing preachers, are virtually indistinguishable from blues. Except for the lyrics…
you're just a genius that's all there is to it. a mad professor who keeps forgetting to put his trousers on before leaving the house type of genius, but a genius all the same. love the vocal, and the sentiment of said vocal n all. the switching back and fore with the spoken part is perfect, story's told excellently, great jackanory voice. easily a favourite
