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…

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.

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.

This started as something AMUC did for RPM 2007 - the problem was that at the time, it was really cool-sounding noise, but not a song. We sampled the original track, and came up with this little ditty from that. Freesound sample used…
