Reminiscent of some long-forgotten collection of Orwell essays, this track effortlessly bends space & time around a synth-filled dystopian soundscape.
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
turning our…
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
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.

I think this ones my fave but a great album through and through...Bravo!!
I like this - it's a real foot-stomper. The vocalist also really holds up her end of things. She carries the lyrics well.
Love the beat.
Great tune. Like the change ups here. Whole rpm 17 is album is solid man.
This album is so cool. Clear fav. Love the chorus
Awesome. Diggin the cool vocals and the grungy, sonic youth vibe.
Is it Jefferson airplane classic I'm thinking. Only more modern. Ladies voice is the bomb.
This is lovely butt
Another Beauty of an Album for this years Rpm Bravo I throughly enjoyed it
A February well spent - a fine RPM album
Cool groove and lyrics
Awesome writing, Brent - this one is hooky as hell!
Sounds like a load of my favourite bands in one gorgeous little 4 minute bundle.
Woah, digging her goth vox! Great match for your full throttle song writing!
This lady's worldly authorative vocal is perfect for this album chum. Where'd you find her?!!?! This one is ace. Love it.
Classic feel to this stuff.
Yes! Yes. YES!!! YESSSS!!!!!!!!!
