This is an experiment in stacking real time delay/looped tracks that had no preconceived connections... all overdubs were done without listening to previously recorded tracks. I hear some very interesting synchronizations.... You?

Like A Wave
--
If you make yourself a mule
someone's gonna ride you
this I know
Like a breeze moves through the air
or a wave upon the water
is how I go
When you can freely give
of all that you can hold
you can know no more…
(RPM 2011) For obvious reasons, many RPM albums make use of improvisational sound collages. ;-) This is the first of three that divide the record into sections. You may or may not hear the connections in the lyrics, but it actually does make…
1) Be a complementary force to the alignment that they call the change of leadership.
2) Use attraction, alignment and avoidance and extended this with a number of traits.
Some days I'm the preacher with my head up in a cloud
Some days I'm a gentleman who does my mama proud
But some days I'm the creature who just arrived from Mars

Thanks for the spins & comments, y'all.
@Dweeb, this is an old track from 2020. I tried multiple takes of this song.... not sure if this version was a vocal overdub or not, I'd have to find the old master tracks to figure it out. I found this on my old laptop when cleaning up desktop files the other night. I wrote/recorded this in April of 2020, not long after John Prine passed away. I guess it was kind of my tribute to him.

We are okay to go. As our spirits we are sending ourselves on missions never ending, we are okay to go, we are okay to go. Rainbow colors flashing, astral waters splashing, canopy projected, our spirits are protected, we are okay to go, we are…
On a cold and lonely trip through hyperspace, our protagonist wonders whether he'll ever see the sunrise on Ganymede again. (All sounds produced acoustically!)
If you ever get back to Ganymede, be sure to stop & look at the Ganymede Model Train Museum, which is actually in a structure about the size of a British police booth, except it's magenta with titanium highlights.
The museum is bigger on the inside than it is on the outside. Say hi to Wowbagger the Infinitely Prolonged if you do happen to bump into him, jolly well.

Way cool song, I like the changes and the set up for the solo break -- the drums are very 'in your face' but I'm sure I will appreciate the mix more when I play this on my home system instead of my work machine!
Technically not part of my RPM 2023 project, and it was mainly recorded in January 2023. It is probably not worth listening to, but I can't make a playlist with a prime number of songs so this is #6.
The song lyrics will not make any sense…
If this wasn't such a hot mess I'd be more ashamed of myself than I already am.
Use me up before I expire
Just read the label, the warning is dire
I'm Long past my best-by timer
Got a little bit of a rotten slimer
USE ME UP

As great as the previous songs were, I think this one is my favorite. Such a funky groove & then that descending progression had me hooked, but then that bass breakdown just puts it over the top!
Last song? Ever?? The hell you say! No way man, this has a great riff, funky bass, vocal harmonies. You need to put together a band and bring this stuff into a live setting!
OMG, these titles are cracking me up! Is the best singing you've ever done? Definitely the most emotive! Wow, Dave you really do keep getting better each year. I wonder if not having Olivia recording with you this year somehow inpired you push yourself? And again, I'd really love to be able to read the lyrics!
Great solo, Dave!! Put those lyrics up when you get a chance! This somehow reminds me a little bit of Psychic Ills, like maybe something from their Inner Journey Out record. Whatever, it's a cool stoney vibe!!
It's been brought to my attention that the component mineral is MOGANITE, not Morganite. Please delete me.

I saw this beautiful name in a scientific paper. There are many people with this name, this particular one is a crystallographer. So I ignored all that and wrote a song about Indian food. I take full responsibility for the horrid mispronunciation…
Darn it now I'm hungry. Mmmm, gulab jamun.
I think I say every year that it's your best record ever, but I really do think you get better each year!! Keep on rockin'!!
Messing around with my Zoom H4N recorder. I cheated and re-recorded the vocals, added the harmonica, and mixed it down using Reaper. I plugged my ancient TR-707 and bass right into the recorder like it was the '90s or something.
I wrote and…
I went into the kitchen and I made a big mess
'cause I'm an idiot sandwich
I pushed it all aside and I ate all the rest
I was totally famished
You came home and cleaned it all alone

It's basically a punk rock song about yoga. I have spend a lot of time during quarantine following along with https://www.youtube.com/user/yogawithadriene

This year's six-minute depressive Dad-rock ballad.

Sitting around on a Friday afternoon, Feeling hungry and alone
There aint nothin worth eatin in the fridge, noone to call on the phone…
Well now ya hit me right in the feels -- when you sing "hungry and alone" I'm felling that. And more brown guitar stylings... always a good thing. This one's heavy, hope your gonna lift us back up after this!
Looking at your resume, one key takeaway is there ain’t a single thing you know
Comparing the candidates I gotta say candidly there ain’t no place you can go
So we make an offer of a minimum salary
What do you think of it? Does this make you…
Dave, you & Olivia have knocked this out of the park. Some of your best instrumental work with regard all the layers of sound, great arrangement! Do I detect a slightly brown influence on this track?
I look away, I cannot see the vase behind me
I turn and see, the flower very nearly dying
I try to fill the vessel up with the water from my cup, no timing
I try again, but another bloom is fading
I walk away, and to myself berating…
Holy Moly!!! This record is off to a great start, but this is easily my favorite song so far, and an all-time favorite Dweeb track!!! GLAA DEEE OOO LAS!!!!
Bonus points if you can figure out what this song is about before the end of the first verse.

Comments on Cave Street's stuff
tumbling shifts like boulders on a mountain, bold
Yes, Jason Deptula on cello!
Good to hear you back at it good to hear your gigging to
Good to hear you again. Is that a cello?
Rock on!
Ah this is mesmerising. Lovely. It's good to know you're still making music. I'm playing catch up here. Been away in the woods
sounds like a shifty gambler shuffling cards in the corner of a dirty bar. like a slightly subdued tom waits.
Tripping music. Love it!

So great. Wow, lovely lyrics and melody too.
Great Folk flavored song and lyrics. It's nice to hear this kind of music. We need more of it.
Exceptional lyrics!!! Love this arrangement- spare and supportive of your raspy warm vocals
Great chorus. Is this performed "live"?
You a bad man. Duderino.

Reminiscent of Waters & Gilmour - listening to it in the hot springs made the whole experience seem impossibly sublime.
The Velveteen Sheen & the Velveteen Shine
Very cool sounds. Like it!
So flabbergasting that my gasts are all flabbered out!
I love long-play tracks like this that just go in all sorts of unexpected directions.

Heavy WeeN vibes!! I was wrong, THIS one is my favorite & my new ear-worm!! Dig that solo mang. Gener would be proud!

Oh, I missed this one till now. Digging the acoustic vibe.
And so it begins. Again. :-) Have fun!!

Now this is too damn catchy! And that harp!!! Tasty!
More excellent guitar work, and another great bass line! This is surely your best record ever, Dave!!
Rippin solo on this one. Yoga rock, who'd a thunk it?!
