The Checkers Speech

1:16

This year's submission for the RPM Challenge (RPMchallenge.com). Yes, it's just one song this year, and yes, it's short. The simpler I try to make it, the more difficult it becomes. Just like relationships. On the plus side, it's one of the…

brand new hobby (raw rpm demo09)

This one was inspired by Wen's mom; and is therefore dedicated to all those musicians doing RPM, and all musicians who toil away at home to make their music despite what their friends & co-workers might think of their efforts.

I thought that's what the other space was for. Ha! Well, okay, see the above space. The song itself doesn't have enough substance to it for two spaces worth of words. Come back next year. Better yet, check over my older work, specifically the Earth Highway album. That stuff was good, because I wasn't overthinking things back then.

Minor tweaks to the original upload: Better balancing of volume level, subtle changes to dynamics of the piano chords, and the addition of a very low-key counter-melody line on the third go-round of the main verse.

Just as a young Senator Nixon in 1952 harnessed the power of cutting-edge technology to bypass the entrenched power brokers to take his message directly to the people, via what came to be known as The Checkers Speech, so do we use digital music production and distribution to deliver our music to the public with the interference of an anachronistic music industry business model.
