The most challenging track to record during the RPM Challenge this year. I like how a lot of it turned out, but there were so many clashing pieces, that I was pulling my hair out trying to assemble it.
this sounds like a circus and all the clowns are sober and the kids and parents watching the show have had a double dose of Mescaline. Your hard work payed off. This is FNG!!! (FNGreat!)
Hold On- Ok, this one is really hard. Not in a rock sense, but other ways. Musically, this song really dances on the line of schmaltz, and a few times, trips over it. I had a hard time singing some of the lines, since I don’t have a pretty voice…

This is one of the tracks that ties into the theme from my RPM 2009 album [Like A Dark Mirror Keeping Its Secrets].
A fall from grace. Every up has its down. Every down has its up. There's definitely a "ying and yang" thing at work here.
My first serious/non-serious effort on the [Everyday Looper iPhone app](http://www.mancingdolecules.com/everyday-looper/).
Stats:
* 100% recorded through the iPhone
* probably 95% iPhone headset mic, 5% internal mic
* 98% my voice, 2% my piano…

WOW Colin - jut listened to the whole cd! HOLY CRAP - FABULOUS, FABULOUS, FABULOUS! "One Note Blues", "Still No Place for Me" and "The View" - KICK SERIOUS ASS!

A typical folk song.
Written and recorded in about an hour for the 24 hour album (attempted on March 13th). Excuse roughness and vocal glitches, it was 2am and this was my first full take.
Thanks to montgomeru for his chord suggestions…

Great tune, Gary. Reminds me a bit of the Boo Radleys. Vocals are really nice, wouldn't know you struggled with any of it if you hadn't said. And personally I don't detect an ounce of schmaltz!

Great bouncy fun piece. Nice!
<3 this intensely.
Yes, a brilliant album close - also a brilliant opener? Or just maybe brilliant.
cool.
Yeah!

Superb!
Reminds me of You Never Give Me Your Money from Abbey Road. Excellent.
Underground new wave folk! Incredibly original. And great vox.
This track is haunted, and I thought that before the chiller vocal began. Very atmospheric and clever!
Can't read most of the "about" for some reason but this is uplifting and wild! Fab!
Very clever feeling of urgency - very enjoyable, in an uneasy kind of way!
This is *tons* of fun. Love it! :D
Mm, tasty electro groove.
Haha, well done! Silly fun that brightened my morning.

What is it about late night recording that adds melancholy beauty to certain tunes? Lovely feel, great song

Love the way the guitar and piano work together on this. Great vocals too!
Great track! Sounds wonderful in headphones
