Thanks, Greg. The weird sounds in the intro are coming from my new delay pedal... it's also provided the effect used on the "lead" guitar parts. I love this thing, it will definitely have an impact on the sound of my entire RPM album!

Thanks, jip & WG!! STill don't think I've done it quite as good as it deserves.... This was my third attempt (so far) and I feel I'm getting closer...

Through fields of clover burning brightly
Fire in the distance, fire in my mind

In the darkness
I walk alone
Eternal solitude
My only home
And the path I follow
Towards the unknown
Is a path that's laid
For my steps alone
In the morning…

Here comes my life again on the upswing
feels like I've been down
for so long
like a carnival ride
I'm not scared of the heights
as much as the ground below…

You're livin' hard
And I understand
You have my word
I won't make demands
There's a feelin'
I got about you
And we'll soon find out
If the feelin's true…
Hi Mike,
I have not really done any recording since RPM 2012. However, I should be back this year.
BTW, digging this album right now. Nice spare arrangements fit your vocal style well.

Once when I was three
You asked me
to show you something
I pointed upwards into the sky
And I asked if ever you wondered
why they hang up there, the stars…
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
Great stuff Man! Love the guitar sounds and lyrics
The guitar sounds great man. Nice leads too.

Interesting start to the song. Nice song! Good start to RPM Challenge 2014.

Thanks for listening, Norm & RSS!
Oh so very nice!
Awesome version. Love it ~WG
Lovely song.
NIce track!
Fuck the mean time. In the meantime, I'm going to let heaven pour all over everyone I love. Thanks for reminding me.
Ahh. Like a warm bath, rare, but delightful, my moments with Street invigorate me.
Nice man.
excellent!, not sure why but has a doors feel, again excellent indeed!
Really has an endless summer vibe. Definitely...warm beach, crashing waves
Thanks, Dave! :-)
Too damned sweet!

Very nice, indeed!
Hiya - I enjoyed listening to these. Cheers.

Norm, this is a sweet groove!

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
