We live in an age nowadays where a celebrity can endorse a product or service long after they meet with the proverbial reaper.
Has anybody bothered to ask the dead guy if he wants to endorse half…
Also, I definitely recommend checking out the Gormenghast novels if you have some time on your hands. They could be described as "fantasy novels", set in a medieval castle lost to time... but they have a Kafka-esque sense of the absurd and a sort of social commentary perhaps informed by the search for meaning after the horrors of World War II.
That part at the beginning reminds me of my friend who is an excellent saxophonist. In our college bands he had a few parts that were wild like that and really threw himself into them.
I'm really enjoying the album. You make great sounds, and melodies out of them! Congrats on another RPM finished!
Sometimes it's easier to run with the flawed routines we're familiar with than to turn over a new leaf..
Compare to "Firecracker" and "Livewire" from RPM 2010 and 2009 respectively.
Trademark dreamy, alluring sounds from AMUC. Excellent album, guys! Every track sounds like a cityscape from underwater - sometimes edgy, sometimes sunny, but always cool, refreshing and totally original.

Really enjoyed this - not my usual kind of thing at all, but there's something in it that grabbed my attention. I'll check some more of your stuff out.

It's said that we're neurologically set to be the happiest as children - everything is at its most vibrant when we're young, and every experience is new.
As adults, a lot of that vibrance is lost, but just as autumn comes around with all its…
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.
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.
For more on the song title, look up "Ganzfeld Effect…

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!)
If the song makes…
The most challenging track to record during the RPM Challenge this year. I like how a lot of it turned out, but there were so many clashing pieces, that I was pulling my hair out trying to assemble it.

It was a quote from an older song I wrote [Terrestrial Epitaph In Shortwave], and I felt the need to develop it further here.
It amazes me how much free advice there is out there etched…

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…

Awesome synth! Nice!

Just listened to the whole thing. Terrific album. Great job this year!

Great work on the album. It took me places that I didn't expect, and which I greatly enjoyed being taken to. Serious congratulations are in order.
interesting trip
I really like this... outstanding job :)
Nice!

Fantastic!
yes this is neat neat stuff ,, much enjoyed.

Awesome track -- The opening blew me away
I really like this, so decompose and minimalistic...blended seamlessly.
Great textures - love your enigmatic sound!
Thanks for the feedback on this one - I'm rewriting it, though. I thought it came out sort of rough around the edges.

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.
