My first rejected Ramen Music submission.
Too Much
I wrote you a letter but I never sent it
I was afraid you might never get it
or what if you did and I lived to regret it
and it was just too much for me to take
now its four in the morning…
I’ll make my exit on the wind
Nevermore to pretend
That I’m fine
Yeah, I’m good, so good
At doin’ everything I should
To convince you
That I’m okay for today
An’ I won’t crawl out of my skin
I’ll just pretend
Some days…

Hey Norm, it's Treefrog on the didg.... I can put you in touch if need be. Let me know.

Awesome, I wish I had more time these days to keep up with everyone. This one was beautiful, tender. I wish the vocals were just a bit higher in the mix... my ears aren't very good. :D

so very good. I love this song. It is the loss of the folks who rejected it I say, It was too good for their purposes. They couldn't handle the deep soul of this track.

Featuring Mark Hubbard & Duma, on didj & percussion respectively, this one begins as the most traditionally structured piece on the album. But don't get used to it, it doesn't last long... just enough to ease you into the formlessness…
@kavin. - lol, that's just it: I did not persevere --- *I gave up!* :-)
The 'real' songs will be coming along before too long... but unfortunately they are too late to count for RPM...
These were just my glimpses into formlessness... but you know how it is... the longer you look into it, the more you realize there are layers of order within the chaos.
I'm just tryin' to surf the chaos.
...or at least stay afloat!
I just saw a comment below that mentioned EARTH... I was thinking similar thought moments before I saw that comment... not meant to be a comparison, just noting that you are in very good company...
10 minutes in... other influences have entered the field... darkness headed towards becoming absolute.... very well done indeed, this is entering my pool of favorites... soon to be downloaded & enshrined on a shiny disc for late night ear goggle exploration... thanks for sharing! now 12 minutes in ... a promise of dawn to come...
5 + minutes in & I am enjoying this immensely! Starting to edge toward darkness now... 6 min... this seems to have far more thought put into it than my recent RPM soundscapes... this is extremely well done! ...still decending... 7 minutes in...
*Pilón* reveals a Cuban pattern, traditionally played on Timbales, but in this case on Jr. Congas & Congas (with gated reverberation and flanger effect). The rhythm of Pilón is based on the motions of pounding sugar cane.

I purchased a new M-Audio midi keyboard during RPM. The software alone was worth the $100.
There was no chance I was wasting any time during RPM with a learning process.
Today, I got the opportunity to install the software and plug it in. This…
Hey Geas, you know my boy Zack is a rapper, right? It's nerd rap apparently... not sure what all that entails (super heroes & sci-fi at least) but you might wanna hit him up. This one sounds like it could be Pirate Rap. I can hear a chorus of "Yo-ho-ho-ho-ho!" at the end!
This is my favorite one so far! The guitar echo sounds like one of the tracks I've been working on myself... This is one of your tracks that starts inspiring words in my head as soon as I hear it!

Lyrics:
River run away with me
I got my paddle in my hand
Take me far away from here
Take me to the sea
Take me somewhere I don’t know
Take me where the water goes
Start out fast, then go slow
Closer to the…
Wow, I was already thinking what a special song this is & then then that flute solo just sealed it! Sure would love to hear an "extended mix" with more of that! I like where everything sits in the stereo field, this is a nice spacious mix...
Comments on Cave Street's stuff
Solid!! Man this is kick ass sh*t!
Yes - I love it!
I think I've said this before, but those are awesome vocals - Much like the incredible Mark Lanegan. Hell yeah!
> Norm said > Are you playing the dig on this one > by any chance? Hey Norm, it's Treefrog on the didg.... I can put you in touch if need be. Let me know.
Are you playing the dig on this one by any chance?
i like these kind of tunes...just relaxing...soft pillow for my head.
Dude, we need to talk about this one. Ramen may not want it, but I bet we could remix this one and get it on a sound track.
Awesome, I wish I had more time these days to keep up with everyone. This one was beautiful, tender. I wish the vocals were just a bit higher in the mix... my ears aren't very good. :D
Damn man I love this, so tender and fragile. Big time atmosophere on this song.
and I love your music.
This is perfect for a Rob Zombie movie. Desert road, convertible automobile, night falls, you stumble on a psycho hotel, you wouldn't sleep anyway.
Beautiful man!
Amen. :-)
Most intimate. Very nice Michael.
Nice one mate great vocals. Top track.
:-( I hope it's not the last. This is saucy. Liking your lower register. :-)
Lovely song, sexy smooth vocals too. Nice one. I like the sound effects too.
@Dave Berry - Thanks dude, you're too kind.
so very good. I love this song. It is the loss of the folks who rejected it I say, It was too good for their purposes. They couldn't handle the deep soul of this track.
Digging your smokey vocals on this one.Nice one man!

Holy moly, what a rocker! Sounds like you're channeling Bob Scott there dude!
I like this song, thanks for sharing your music.
nice track. dig the vocoder! bla bla bla bla bla bla
Psychedelic!
This is a nice track... are you doing RPM this year?
I agree with Keith: inspired/humbled! As always, thank you for so freely sharing your beautiful music, kavin..
Let me know if you want me to send these to MC Freakin'Genius (aka Zack)

This one reminds me of Art of Love... I like the echoes & the low bass hits.
It's like Benny Hill goes western! Fun track!! This needs some seriously twisted lyrics! :-D
