This is the basic theme for "weekend in new orleans", a documentary we're currently writing the soundtrack for (it'll be adapted with variations throughout the film). It's very quiet. (Video trailer coming shortly.)
Well, there was this Spectrasonics contest... and songs had to be submitted by June 30th... so we finally started working on this one on the evening of the 29th. Yeah. We procrastinate.

RPM 2013
can you hear me
doing my best
tapping the glass
in an S.O.S.
I think I'm going under
it's too much
pulling me down
wants and the needs
and the give me now
oh is it any wonder
I'm barely holding on
all my words get…
RPM 2013
I write letters that I have
no intention of sending
I tell stories that wander on
without an ending
I have never really gotten done
with anything
but I am finished with you
I keep water boiling
til the cooking pot runs dry…
RPM 2013
see the bloodlust rise
in your watchful eyes
you're taking aim again
will you pull me close
to better reach my throat
you wolf in woolen skin
I know far too well
how you kiss and tell
you sing your siren song
but these…
RPM 2013
Searching for the words
To let you know
I consider you
A perfect work of art
Studying the curves
And the brush strokes
Every inch is
Easily my favorite part
Trying to be smooth
But you shake my spine
I am coloring outside…
RPM 2013
Wearing your Favorite shirt
Missing you
Til it hurts
I'm seeing your name in
the Street signs
And the stoplights
Wishing for
Where you are
Reaching out
In the dark
I'm touching the pillow
But you're not there
And it…
RPM 2013 feat. Gary Fox instrumentation collab
time trickles in
defenses wear thin
these holes in our armor
grow larger each day
steel-edged chills
come in close for the kill
the line in the sand
has been trampled away
it's so wrong…
RPM 2013
I like the way your hair gets flipped
the way you curl your lip
when you're drinking a little bit too much
I like the way your eyes go wide
the smile you try to hide
when our fingers accidentally touch
and I know
that you…
RPM 2013
I'm not who I was
don't judge me
on memories and dust
they're nothing
but footprints in my past
forgotten
never coming back
I've lost them
but I'm searching pretty hard
for new life
step out from the dark
into light…
RPM 2013 feat. Gary Fox instrumentation
quiet down now, world
bring the lights down, world
we're going to paint a little
pitch black moment
hush those city lights
those neon lullabies
we're off and dreaming with our
eyes wide open…
well this is a bit awkward, but i have been chatting with Nosda Cariad about the various plus and minus of sound settings ie reverb,,, sometimes i feel like i have used too much, as sort of a crutch. in this version the reverb has been toned down…
rpm #7,, i think this will be the overture, to a small midi orchestral suite, which i hope will finish up as my remaining 3 pieces for this years rpm, but well see how that goes,, thanks for all the helpful comments i have received on this project…
dedicated to our "cold hearted orb that rules the night",, bassoon and french horn exchange glances with one another, cross a web of strings with a little timpani,in for the flavor,,, i have been trying to figure a bassoon into my work, so here…
a small quiet piece for a Sunday evening,, all four string sections are present here,, violin, viola,cello and contrabass,,it's kind of fun to try to mix, and pass the various themes around,,
