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.

This was based on a flying dream I had months ago. (Actually, more like a crashing dream, since while I was able to pilot myself into the heavens, I guess I forgot to turn off gravity.) The fellow described appeared in the dream, casting…

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…

If "Jenny Blue" is the closer, and "Shrinking Violet" is the outro, then this is the postlude to the outro. The only track I played in real-time on from beginning to end. (No idea how I managed to pull that off..)

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…
