So I got me a new geetar the other week.
Named her Lala, obviously. Seemed kind of appropriate - she wears a faded gold dress and is full of chunes and mischiefs.
This is our first effort together. It was meant…

This is great! What starts out as a super solid guitar riff turns out to be the start of an inventive arrangement and tasty guitar playing. Your voice is interesting too, and made better by the fact that you're clearly feeling it!

Now here's a bit of an oldie - the second song I ever wrote. In... 1978!
I think I played it once, or maybe twice, at school assemblies. My musical peers and colleagues back then dismissed it as corny/rancid pop music…

And this is the last of the little threesome of In Your Hands, Little Thing, and this one, When I Try To Be Me.
It's in the key of 4th fret and was written just over a month later than the other two, on 19th March…

Thanks for your latest round of positive comments, Andrew. Really most appreciated. Have access to unbelievable range of sound libraries etc and looking to try them all at the moment!!!

I struggled to get this thing completed. I've been sat on it for weeks, finished, debating whether I was really prepared to let it go.
I loved the song when I wrote it, inspired by a wonderful week at the end of September. But the recording…

Tell me where did you find it, was it lying on the ground?

Out in the pouring rain

It all started with a tinkle on the ivories
Blue eyed boy
some say you’ve got it

The harmonious Tounge
That can sing a love song
With all the good intentions gone

Song 10# for my 2025 RPM Challenge. Wrote this today with my synthesizer, drum gadgets and keys. A bit dark, maybe for a movie about an assassination. This concludes my RPM for this year :) Thanks to anyone who has listened.
Into the light…
Track 1 of my Mulligan EP, recorded for the 2025 RPM Challenge. Inspired by my time working in betting shops, of all things. I used my Variax Standard for most of the guitar sounds, trying to get something like a Biffy Clyro type of sound.
Song 9# for my 2025 RPM Challenge. The finishing line is near. I wrote this song last night - it emerged out of the burning heart ache I've experienced since the death of my beloved 13 year old dog Maxwell (died last May) - my love for him is…

Comments made by Andrew Russe
Yeah, digging these tracks. The drumming is very cool, especially noticed it on this one.
Oh yeah, love this one
Oh yes... digging this. Good opener!
A powerful set of songs, and a really good listen, well done.
Woah. Powerful stuff. Didn't need the meaning (or I didn't need it), I didn't get the details but I got the point - really moving.
Love the story behind the title - I've got songs like that too. One of the reasons I am SO MUCH of a one man band is because of bad experiences with bands. Cool song.

Rocking!
Oh yes.. And a mighty fine RPM guys... well done!
Oh yeah... nice
This one jumped out at me.
I'm having to look up words with this RPM! :)
Love the groove on this one. I can almost feel like I'm in the room while you guys are playing it.
WOAH! What an opener
Aw yes... love it. And it reminds me - I haven't finished listening to Lonely in the Park :/
Well done! You weren't sure you were going to finish when you started were you? Nice finish.
Cool sounds! Like it.
Mrs R loves it too (she was already gone to bed yesterday)
Is THIS why I didn't get her???? I was certain Santa had her wrapped up ready for me this time and then on the day it was just the usual stuff under the tree
It's a cool "stomp". We liked it (me and Mrs R) - does sound like you're having fun.
