No explanations left to give apologies over
She wanted more than the story, but nobody told her
I hear the insane are hardly worth the medication
But she'd like the story just the same, for when she gets older
It's not the end…
RPM 2011
Wait for the room to focus
Feeling around for closure
The whiteness of my skin
The pale reflecting eyes
The beaty of total darkness
Move to the door and open
Room after room of sorrow
Breathing through your mouth
Flooding from your eyes…
RPM 2011
I sail northward against the wind
My hope erased by the wages of sin
I have no way to break the ice
I’m frozen with chains of tomorrow
I have no fear of getting through
The feelings I lost without starting
It’s our little game not…

RPM 2011
You say the world is too complicated
You say close your eyes forget it all
Nobody sold me a bridge in the desert
Nobody remembers with our eyes closed tight
You say somedays just a point of view
You say someones not much different
Nobody…

So wide awake the hands are still
Too tired to keep them silent
It barely pokes above the surface
It hardly registers among the crowd
So long and waves the farwell
We’d better tell the authorities
Goodbyes are so beautiful
Disappear…
RPM 2011
Seasons start to change without much worry
Ordinary days no reason to remain
The clouds will force the rain realize its glory
Nothing keeps us sane better start to hurry
Slow monkey cabin fever
Free clinic dirty needle
They’ve gone…

If I scream louder
Could you understand

Screaming at the top of my lungs
If I scream louder
Will my point get…

You know, son, when you turn up the amplifier that high it creates a harsh and unpleasant sound. If you turn it down a little it lets the natural beauty of the guitar tone show through! And then maybe you wouldn't have to strain your voice so much to sing over it!
rpm 2011
Making music everyday alone in my dark hole
Pumping out my silliness for not a single soul
Stinking up the internets with links to stupid songs
Oblivious that no one clicks and no one sings along
There’s a word for people like me…

Friends hate you in every way
You fuck them over every day
Jobless homeless knocked up too
Revolving cycle is what you do
2 cars on blocks in the front yard
Complain how life is really hard
Think you don’t deserve this pain…
Karma is not a fantasy. It's the only thing you can count on in life because you reap what you sow. Watch out for those weeds you don't see growing until they've killed off your harvest!
back where i was born
you learn pretty early on to leave well enough alone
just settle in and watch the world around you spin
there's nowhere else to go when you live in a snow globe
i knew this kid who couldn't wait to pack it in
and break…
don't ask me out to a movie
cause i'm not gonna go
don't tell me you're having a party
cause i already know
it's an 80's theme
i saw it in my stream
but i didn't accept or decline
i just said maybe
and maybe means no
maybe always means…
VERSE I
Lettuce in first
To build a foundation
Everything else is up to you
It these choices
that you make, pour it on
that create the moment you have waited for
PRE CH
These tines, plunging in
CHORUS
And we are all so intricate…
I've been obsessed with this song since I watched a Rick Beato video that called out how the awesome guitar solo was criminally buried in the mix. Plus, it's yacht rock, and if there's one thing I love, it's yacht rock. So I set out to record…
You wouldn't know if from my uploads over the last few months, but I rarely record covers, mostly because you hear what's WRONG, not what's RIGHT. But I had a theme of Earth, Wind, & Fire for September, so I decided to take on a huge song…
from the album "Uniform"
she hides her heart under the pillow
waiting for the good fairy to come
replace this worn and broken thing
with a heart that can feel again
she's never sure which night will be her lucky one
but she anticipates…
Hello.
Well Hello!
Hello Pillow,
How do you do?
I'm doing mighty fine thank you,
How about you?
Fancy a snooze?
Let's go to sleep right now x 3
Right now. Night now.
Hello.
Hello Pillow,
And what a shitter of a day.
Never…
My dear friend Brent Kinder asked for some covers of his AFC songs, and this is my attempt at covering the excellent song Sideways from his Orange album, which is available on Alonetone in its original form. I'll include the link here, but I'm…
Brent wrote a song. A really good song.
I asked for his session file. I replaced his drum and keyboard sounds and remixed things.
I added a second guitar and some strings.
I created an odd percussion track.
Then I recorded my own vocals…
“Shine” by Wilson Ng, written and recorded in February 2022 for the RPM Challenge.
Outtake from the 2022 RPM Challenge Sessions. Just one of those songs that doesn't seem to work. Wanted to recut the vocals because they were basically scratch…

RPM 2022. I finished a song.. does that count?
Well the early bird
Catches the worm
Eats it up
And shits it out
Onto the lawn
And into the dirt
Where the worms crawl
And use the soil to form
To be eaten once more
By the early birds…
When the shivers go right down your spine like a river
Or the whiplash from turning your head to the coast
Brace, the stormfront breaching outside,
Every tree, bends like a dragons tail
We lean our bodies toward the headwinds

Or the whiplash from turning your head to the coast
Brace, the stormfront breaching outside,
Every tree, bends like a dragons tail
We lean our bodies toward the headwinds
turning our…
Can you feel it, in your teeth
It is hiding, smoldering
In the shadows, of your mind
Where there's smoke there's surely fire
Are you evil, in disguise
Feel the acid, start to rise
Ever shameful, hide the guilt
Always lapping at the flames…
Cross my heart, and hope to live forever
If we’re wishing we might as well jump
Bittersweet, sepia tones rolling down the canyon,
Turning my head
So long this long refrain
So long we’ll meet again
Flying past though leave no trails…
For the first time in 13 years Grant sent me some lyrics. I added a verse and then spent the month of February waiting for the song to give me a direction. It did on about the 24th. Originally this was sunny and upbeat.
Keep it quiet kids…
We decided to give the kids an outlet that wasn’t pandemic or lockdown based this February, and made an album as a family for the RPM Challenge 2021. It was just the most precious, funny, brilliant month.

Comments on angie fights crime's stuff
I think I'll cover this one. :)
Still haven't decided which of your tunes I'm going to cover yet though I've been listening through. :) (This is boynamedbri btw.)
Like Your voice....good song
Nice cover :)
you have a great grasp on mixing
like your stuff
very cool ...love the instrument choices...great mix
An excellent album so far will be back to hear the rest
Agree with Alex nice melody...liking that bass working hard too
Who really cares? your right... no one..we all look the other way concentrating on our own thing
Loving your sound
Sometimes only total darkness will do excellent vocal and sound especially the Bass driving the sadness
it's really about my anger management problems.
i actually had the volume turned pretty low to record this, it sounds big because of my huge nuts.
check out www.thescope.ca on Monday evening

I love the "epic fail", that's hilarious. This album rocks it.
if i scream louder will i lose my voice?
