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

This one took me a while [years!] to complete - how did it come out?

Different! Me likes different! The intro is strong but when the drums come in, they're non produced. If there's Bass, it's hard to tell. more bottom and big on the drums working together on that riff I think, would sound awesome. Vocal levels are not consistent. Great vocal though, I'm a fan!

Not sure what genre this would fit into:
Experimental Corporate Gothic Steampunk Electro-folk? (Although, I guess the 'experimental' is sort of implied by the rest of the name.)

I was planning to write a love song, but .. it didn't quite come out that way.
3/11/12 - I re-recorded the first verse with better-sounding vocals. I'm leaving the version on the RPM Jukebox…

It started out as a tribute to the old sci-fi movie, "The Quiet Earth", and became something else.

I picked this because I wrote an electronica song named ether a few years back. I love the synth textures you have used here, and that noise and the ethereal sounds really add a sense of mystery. Cool track!

The Challenge posted on the Deluge Discord group for April 2024 was to make an ambient drone track, and to share some new patches. I wanted to see if the new effects in the Community Firmware v1.1 Beta were up to it, and they seemed to be! I crafted…
To those of you who go down the rabbit hole. It's been a long winter. <3Kat
How much should I sleep? What should I eat?
How to be a better friend
Why am I tired, uninspired? Writer's block, world's end
How much noise from your neighbor…
Song idea number one for the 2024 RPM Challenge becomes finished song number one.
This might be the only song I like for this year's RPM Challenge. We'll see. Is the mix too reverby? Probably. I like it today but I might not like it tomorrow…
In a dramatic finale, the colonists confront the ripple effects of their actions and the ultimate fate of humanity, as they strive to shape a new future for themselves and their planet.
Going through my collection over the years...thinking I'll post some of those old tunes (pretty rough and ready....one take, recorded on garage band I believe). Why not...life is short! Thanks to anyone who listens :)
When I was a boy, I would ring my nan on the telephone
Numbers in the holes
Spin it round then let it go
Nowadays..
I carry a phone in my pocket
Oh stop it!
Oh where will it end?
When I was a lad
Used a notepad when I wrote thank you…
compass spinning
never winning
a chance to play dead
and drift in your head
pin the needle
shun the steeple
all the people
aimless irreverent
north
south
east
west
I'm so lost
in this maze
a perpetual daze
a perpetual daze
Sorry to hear it affected you that way. The mood of the album is definitely impacted by the season. February in New England can be a little gray and cold. The album does have some tracks with a little more pep in the form of instrumentals.
The track name was sort of stream of consciousness. I was dabbling with words that fit the feeling/theme of the music, and that sequence had a nice flow to it.
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…

Sorry, I just left a message with no name. Best of luck, Dave T.

:) Production sounds good, clean!!
Nice one very cool.
I re-recorded Proteus [I] to try and get the levels better. How does it sound now? Any feedback would be appreciated.
the more i listen to ur stuff, the more I like!!
hypnotic
Really love your sound on this tune
what kind of keyboard are you using? wicked guitar
Killer Synths & vocals....really nicely done. love the arps
Freaky!! and totally wicked.
Cool and sci-fi creepy
Great ambiance and tones here. I love the kaleidoscope of sounds.

Great start! Love that sound. A melodica?
What kind of synthage used here? I like it.
Dig it. Sounds like toy music. In a good way. Very atmospheric.
The title drew me in... It goes from a vibe that sounds like electronic 'Yes' and then takes on a Dylan-esque quality... Fun!

Digging this. Nice and meditative..
I'm getting strong Art of Noise vibes from this. Well done.
I'm digging this one. The lyrics really connect.
Reverb and overall mix sounds good to me. Good job!
What a strange sonic dimension this is. Very immersive through headphones.
Solid RPM Challenge album - this was a blast to listen to through headphones.
I like the acoustic space of the track. Listening through headphones, it feels like the band is surrounding you as they play.
This is ASMR-inducing stuff. Sounds really immersive through headphones. I'm getting an FSOL vibe from it.
Love this - getting strong Camper Van Beethoven vibes from the lyrics (particularly the verses).
I love the lyrics -- it brought a big, goofy smile to my face.
OMG - this is bliss through headphones.

I'm digging this album. I'm getting a lit bit of a Neal Morse vibe from this song lyrically.
I like this. Loaded with procedural awesomeness.
Oreo is an awesome singer.
This is one of those tracks that if you close your eyes while listening, it will conjure up mental imagery and take you to a very specific place.
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.
