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…

I like here how certain elements of the track seem to weave in and out of sync with the main tempo of the song. It gives the track this precarious balance, like somebody standing still while riding on a unicycle.
Another track from Deranged Lunaticks - this one actually ended up getting recorded first back in the early "oughts" It's been dusted off and spruced-up.
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.

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!
fascinating to listen to. took me off somewhere that
love the sounds ur getting..
Fantastic!
yes this is neat neat stuff ,, much enjoyed.
nice!!
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.

I'm liking this - the synthesizers drew me in. The vocals remind me a little bit of Roine Stolt from the Flower Kings.
This one just brings a smile to my face, which isn't an easy accomplishment. I love the lyrics.
The production is off the charts. It's like needle pin drop clear. I'm impressed you were able to do this in a single month.
I like here how certain elements of the track seem to weave in and out of sync with the main tempo of the song. It gives the track this precarious balance, like somebody standing still while riding on a unicycle.
I like the melodic progressions of this. The colorful 'Arpy' synthesizers have an Ed Van Fleet feel to them.
This is beautiful. The production is absolutely flawless. It kind of has a David Arkenstone sort of vibe to it.
I like this. Very 80s. I'm hearing Wall of Voodoo and the Cars influences.
Top-notch playing. I'm impressed. (I wish I could play half as good as that.)
Intriguing voice -- kind of sounds like if Prince was jamming with the Black Crowes.
Nice!! I remember finishing this game when I had the Chicken Pox and was out of school for a full week. It has a great soundtrack.
I love that playful synthesizer you use on this (the lower one). This track has a nice groove to it.
I like the quirkiness of this one -- it reminds me a little bit of Dead Or Alive from the 80s.
I like the overall groove of this song -- I like how it builds up out of the minimalist vocals on the previous track. You have a pretty good voice.
Wow - very tight mix.
Fantastic sound production. I like how you can clearly hear the bass in the mix.
This has all the makings of a SyFi Channel holiday special. "Attack Of The Snow-Zombies" [Attack Of The Snowbies? Znowbies?]
This is serious nightmare fuel right here. I could envision it being used as a background soundscape for a horror movie. I mean that in a good way. =)
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.
