Full name is "The Morphing Architecture Of The New England Vatican". This is another RPM 2010 track.
I have weird dreams where your average New England city is juxtaposed with some holy Old World locale. The music and lyrics arose from that…
Toughest thing to mix on the entire album. Synthesizer music for the attention-impaired.
If you don't like the current melody, wait five seconds.

The last track from my RPM Challenge album, "The Loudest Silence".
The story is loosely based on something I read, but there's a lot of poetic interpretation involved. It deals with people who spend a lot of time staring at the stars - like the…
This is probably the least electronic-sounding of everything that I did from RPM 2010, although it still heavily uses samples (either self-sampled or from Freesound).
That is me playing the harmonica, though. (No, really!)

Format Sea - Part Two
Based on the age-old concept that a person is born anew every seven years. It's technically meant in terms of physiology - you develop all new bones/muscle/fat in a seven year period. I kind of add a spiritual/alien abduction…
You get good separation on the drums here, frequency-wise. Everything stands out individually, and I find with this sort of music, it's very easy for it all to blend together into a big mess.
Who is that singing at the very end? It was kind of a surprise - I wasn't expecting it.
The year was 1989 and my high school rock band, Tempest Fero, was feelin' proggie! I can't remember who wrote what for this one. I do know we were quite stoked to have the little 4/4 to 3/4 to 6/8 thing at the end of the quiet parts. I also…
Cry (if you want to) – Steve Harris 990211
Run into these open arms my love, sad you’re breaking
But on the outside you’re so tough
You’re not fooling me, enough’s enough
Cry if you want to, cry…..
I’ll be here till someone comes…
I like the unstructured nature of this -- while it doesn't really have any rhythm or beat to it, the drone would be nice for drifting off to sleep. (You might have peculiar dreams, though.)
RPM 2013
I'm not who I was
don't judge me
on memories and dust
they're nothing
but footprints in my past
forgotten
never coming back
I've lost them
but I'm searching pretty hard
for new life
step out from the dark
into light…
A song about a tough day at the office.
This one turned into more of a project that it deserved. My first take on the vocals seemed okay at the time but was really unacceptable. I went back and fixed the problems and ended up clipping the…
From a mastering perspective, this is great - you can hear all the different instruments clearly.
I'm impressed you were able to master it so well in a four week period.
Stoner rock with a hint of Grunge. Inspired by Queens of the Stone Age, Kyuss, Monster Magnet, Masters of Reality, Karma to Burn, Joy Division, Fu Manchu, Nirvana, Clutch. Desert Rock. Space rock. Garage rock.
Based on a poem by William Sharp that I found while researching my family history.
The poem has been put to music once already, by one Christopher Goldsack, http://www.sundown.pair.com/Sharp/piratepoem.htm but I wanted to put my own little…
Spun around like a seer's needle
A philosopher so lost in his riddle
Tries to speak but no longer able
Drifting in the deepest dream

Wild tune.
Very cool electronic piece! -KAC
Hypnotic melodies and awesome beats! Nice track!
Stirring stuff!
whoa cool sounds!
big yes from me! love the synth especially...
Interesting, and very very weird.
This is killer - Had to loop it for a bit. Woostah, huh? I'm a stones throw away in So. Nampshah!
Woah! Departure! Cool sounds here!
I love the panning.
Shadow, Shadow, Shadow, Shadow.
This sounds very psychedelic. Brilliant application of sound effects.

I like this one - it's catchy. Just pure lyrics being driven along by an acoustic accompaniment.
Creepy barotone. I like how it interacts with the stereo soundscape in the background.

I'm really digging these tracks -- it's great background music when you're lounging around on the couch and trying to relax.
I'm digging the twists and turns this song is taking. The mix sounds really good.
Beautiful. This is the sort of thing I could fall asleep to. (It's a great soundtrack to dreams.)
I like the sudden tempo change between the verses and the chorus. It caught me off guard.
This is really nice - it's probably the most cohesive (non-improvised) item from this particular playlist.
Nice! Is this entirely electronic, or are you mixing in electronic elements with real instruments? (The guitars sound real to me.)
Nice -- this sounds fantastic through headphones. I like how the bass is clearly separated out from the higher instruments.
I'm really digging this -- the vocals play nicely with the subdued instrumentation. (Cool concept too.)
I am so jealous of the production. It's absolutely flawless. Good work. The vocals remind me a lot of Neil Morse formerly of Spock's Beard.

This album is very nice -- I'm not sure I'd call it sleeping music, but I found it very relaxing to listen to while working at my computer.
This kicks butt -- I like how the different vocal layers interact with the stringed instrument (cello?) and the drum track.
From a mastering perspective, this is great - you can hear all the different instruments clearly. I'm impressed you were able to master it so well in a four week period.
Very strong vocals and a solid mix. I'm impressed.
I like this. It has a really creepy vibe to it.
I like this - it's a nice clean synthesizer sound and an elaborate melody. It definitely moves the neurons around in my head.
I re-recorded Proteus [I] to try and get the levels better. How does it sound now? Any feedback would be appreciated.
