Full name is "The Morphing Architecture Of The New England Vatican". This is another RPM 2010 track.
I have weird dreams where your average New England city is juxtaposed with some holy Old World locale. The music and lyrics arose from that…
Format Sea - Part Two
Based on the age-old concept that a person is born anew every seven years. It's technically meant in terms of physiology - you develop all new bones/muscle/fat in a seven year period. I kind of add a spiritual/alien abduction…
you have a way of making a particularly long song with minimalist instrumentation, a lot of open spaces, yet it remains interesting and holds the attention for an unusually long span..i think you are truly an innovative composer..levels schmevels
This is a redo of "I've Made Myself A Wall", from the 2009 24 hour challenge on Alonetone.
I thought the original version was a little bland, so I wanted to take a stab at breathing some fresh life into it.
For my last RPM Challenge album…

An electronic track from the Dead In The Water sessions. I thought the Last FM version was missing something, so I went in to fine-tune it.
This is the end-result of that fine-tuning.
The track deals with how there are usually no easy outs…
The last track from my RPM Challenge album, "The Loudest Silence".
The story is loosely based on something I read, but there's a lot of poetic interpretation involved. It deals with people who spend a lot of time staring at the stars - like the…
Toughest thing to mix on the entire album. Synthesizer music for the attention-impaired.
If you don't like the current melody, wait five seconds.
Song name comes from my workplace addiction - I was going through a bag of cough drops weekly…
This was based off "After Nothing" by Synaptic Disturbance. It was from their 2009 RPM Challenge album entitled "Aplysia Californica"
He had put the root tracks up for remix, and this is what I came up with -- as an experiment, I purposely made…

This was my very first attempt at recording , done on two tracks , me picking and vox , AK rhythm , then me adding a harmony vocal , a bit basic but a Traffic song i've allways loved
Do you have any tricks you use to get the stereo vocals mixed well? It seems like every time I try, I bungle it up. I'm astounded how well lined-up the vocals on the left and right are. They're timed perfectly to each other.

The stereo vocal effect you use on this track is fantastic. I have a TV set I use for my computer monitor, and the left/right division is very clear, but the two voices mesh nearly perfectly.
This is my favorite one of the bunch - it's eclectic enough to hold my attention for a full five minutes. That's pretty impressive, considering my limited attention spa-- hey look, a bunny! (wanders away)
A true story about some of my odd dreams
If the world's strongest man
Could hold the world in the palm of his hand
Would he crush us all into dust?
As a way to punish us
These are the kind of things
That seem to occupy me
If a giant…
I've heard rumors about the vocal recording technique you use, but you have to hear it to believe it. That's really nice -- encompassing stereo effect..
I love the glitchy electronic stew you create here. (British accents and dogs make everything better.)
It reminds me a little bit of the "Magic Medicine" track from Incubus.
i like this song as a song but i have NO DAMNED IDEA how to arrange, perform, or record it. acoustic it's missing intensity. i can't make it work with drums and bass. this version with electric gtr and kbds is barely listenable. if there's one…
A crazy little song written while considering Ed Robertson's plane crash from a few years back, "Any Landing" is given much legitimacy by Ashley's incredible voice and Kavin Allenson's (Kavin S. Acoustic Church) guitar.
Any Landing
Learning…
Lyrics:
Skip ahead to her in pants,
watch her dance in the living room
in front of all the other dinner guests.
She thumbs her nose at simulacra,
but someone must play Cleopatra
in the PTA's yearly drama fest.
Her husband broke his body…
This is catchy -- the instruments sound crisp and clear.
If you're planning on doing any after-February rework on it, you may just want to change up the reverb on the vocals slightly, to get it to blend in more with the instrumental part.
An unusual traditional tune from the first Scartaglen album way back in 1984. Going through stuff the other day and ran across the LP and couldn't even remember the tune or having recorded it. I played guitar on this track

I remixed this RPM track - sounds a lot better now..

That's some nice clarinet playing.. (I'm guessing it's a clarinet - whatever that wind instrument is..)

Wow. This is fantastic. That mellow organ that kicks in around 3.5 mins is really pleasant.

This one flows really well. Vocally, you hit some really nice notes in the higher register.
Okay.. It sounds like the vocalist from Drivin' N Cryin' singing with Phideaux backing up on the instruments..
This has been intriguing so far - now I want to go read the original books. Vocally, it's reminding me a bit of Phideaux.
The dueling vocals work really well here..
Totally agree with the Gumbo -- this needs a music video, with low budget puppets.
So far, a very catchy album. I like the whimsical approach to electronica you take here.
I love the tempo/time signature changes here - the twists and turns really hold one's interest.

That is the most awesome synth I've ever heard.
This completely rocks. Definitely is one of those 'brainworm' sort of tunes that I'll be humming at work for the next three weeks.
I want quantum knees. That sounds cool.
This totally kicks posterior. =)
This really appeals to my Irish half. There's something about Irish folk music that brings a smile to one's face.
