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.

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.

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.

Thanks for the feedback on this one - I'm rewriting it, though. I thought it came out sort of rough around the edges.
