before I disappear
I form a fossil shaped by fear
fresh thoughts have gone up dry
yet old habits still multiply
my waking life is said and done
I'm just this script I have become
no good solution can be found
let's burn this whole thing…
Collaboration that I did with Beatwavecr. He composed the music, and I had done the vocals/lyrics. (September 2018 -- I fine-tuned the vocals and levels just slightly, but am trying to resist any further bouts of OCD.)
Lyrics :
[verse 1…
Lyrics :
I respect your ambitions
but only plumbers have pipe dreams
Stick with your inhibitions
And cast your hopes away
Leave matters of tomorrow
to the tide of the big sea
It shapes at its volition
And molds your fate as clay
Even the cosmos needs system maintenance. When its IT department decides to delete something, sometimes that something doesn't want to go without a fight. Even computer viruses will do what they can to avoid the reaping hand of a virus checker…
When magic and technology cross paths, all heck will break loose.
Lyrics
I can't help believing
that this course she can't stop weaving
a part of her deceiving
herself that this is right
She focuses fate
her intentions transferred…
Aliens thought they knew the best means to attack us, but their intelligence was a little dated.
Lyrics :
another forgotten signal
TV tuned to UHF
dead air an abandoned station
snowy light red screen of death
green men plotting conquest…
My first track as Black Bear Black Sheep and my entry for this year's RPM Challenge
It's not perfect but there was a lot of love put into this track and I'm happy that I'll get to share that love
RPM 2k22
you can't remember anything tonight
cause you lost the feeling, lost the feeling
the tide is turning, the shoreline is in sight
but you've lost the feeling, lost the feeling
whenever all seems hopeless try
to remember all…
RPM 2022. I finished a song.. does that count?
Well the early bird
Catches the worm
Eats it up
And shits it out
Onto the lawn
And into the dirt
Where the worms crawl
And use the soil to form
To be eaten once more
By the early birds…
This is a 42 minute track for sleeping or relaxing. It's a combination of 12 string guitar, mandolin, synthesizers, and even some Elven speech. Thank you for checking this out.
UnCaged: 33'4'' - it's a piece we've recently recorded for the French label, Camembert Électrique, to be released on a compilation called "Silence" in early December. It was John Cage whose 4'33'' cleverly demonstrated the near impossibility of…
I like the some of the melodic changeups that take place over the course of the song. The vocals lined up to the hammering drumbeat are also well-executed.
When I was young we lived opposite a big play area - lots of grass and trees and bushes to rampage around - and in the middle a tarmac playground with the "amusements" - a witches hat (aka umbrella), a long rocking horse with saddles along its…
Duet piece recorded between a Eurorack modular synthesizer I built and a Behringer Model D (minimoog clone). Tons of reverb and delay for added effect.
Millions of years ago... Before the dawn of history... I was a in a school band. I couldn't play an instrument then so I was the vocalist. This tune was one of the band's originals.
Now, bear in mind this was the 'Ay-deees' so it was mullets…
Comments on AMUC's stuff
Sparse instrumentation. Really good vocals. I like how you say alot with few words. Really Good stuff!
Love the album! Good job!
Cool groove, melodic and strange too. Nice job!
It's a me Mario!
cool stuff
Very cool song.
This Cloud Operation has been isolated by a network technician as being antithetical to the needs of the Cloud Services team.
Like the interplay between the instruments. Nice variety, cool tune.
Like it! Very short.
Great vocals, imaginative, progressive and listenable song. Love it!
You voice reminds me of ELP. Very nice tunes.
Hugely inventive album - love the dark flavours, storytelling and folky overtones!
Love the urgency.
Oh this is wonderful..! Sounds like churchbells at sunrise.
Fabulously inventive!
I really like the melody on this track. Good work!
Really like the synth in this one. Everything is layered and build up really nicely.
Short but sweet. Love your vocals on this track.
The change at the 1:10 mark is excellent.
nice work

You definitely capture the Donkey Kong Country vibe with this. (Now I want to go back and play that.)
This one has a nice flow to it, both instrumentally and lyrically.
Nice. I'm getting a strong Kevin Moore / Chroma Key vibe from this.
This is great. Getting Paul McCartney vibes from this. The sort of ditty you can teach little kids to sing.
This is fantastic. I have it playing while I'm doing my remote work, and I'm ready to fall asleep on the keyboard.
Digging this pair of songs. Very mellow and well-produced.
I'm curious what would happen if you slowed this down with Paulstretch..
This feels like the soundtrack for yet-to-be-made sci-fi movie. With claymation aliens.
I like the some of the melodic changeups that take place over the course of the song. The vocals lined up to the hammering drumbeat are also well-executed.
Just the right length for my limited attention span - Squirrel! (darting away)
The stereo image is awesome. Sounds great through headphones.
This is one of those tracks that just lets you close your eyes and go somewhere else.
I'm getting a Laurie Anderson feeling from the vocals.
I'm digging this - just what I need when I'm processing work for my job.
I love the sound of hardware synthesizers.
This is absolutely awesome. Complicated piece. Just heard it on the RPM Challenge listening feed.
Digging this - the synthesizers take you somewhere else.
You can tell this was very cathartic to create. I like the vocals.
I'm digging the synthesizers here and their playful melodies.
I like how the tone of the song changes midway through.
