Second track from my RPM 2010 album, "They Are Killers." The pounding drums at the beginning will eventually be over top of the synths that end "Nemesis," but I'll get to that later.
I thought I'd post my riff notebook as I'm working on writing this time. You know, get feedback, get told whether I'm blatantly ripping off a song, or find other alonetoners who want to work with me on them.
This is not a serious attempt at a song, it's just a dare. One of my coworkers challenged me to cover the Rebecca Black song and I like a good challenge.

Taking taking all her money
Taking taking all her sweat
Taking taking all her money
Taking taking all her tears
What do you give back? (shark attack)
Taking taking all her love
Taking taking all her life
Taking taking all her love
Taking…
As promised, listened to the whole thing... stylistically it's not totally my thing and I don't really have any points of reference, but it's good for what it is. Definitely fits the loud, abrasive, punk rawk vibe, anyway. I think "old" and "aweful dad" were the standouts.
The last track that I'm going to upload for a while. I will be re-recording a few songs to release a LP under my own name. Hopefully it'll be good :)
This one is another exploration using loops and delays. I hope you like it!
613 is a prime number, 136 is triangular, and 361 is a square number - I didn't know what to name it ( but I wrote a math book once called Mathematical Bliss). Anyone want to put some metal vocals on this?
Its my first attempt at writing a piece for piano. I think this would probably best be played by two players..
if I ever write out the piece on paper, it might have to be so.
I would value any of your comments greatly, as I greatly want to improve…
Parts of it loosely reminded me of the final fantasy theme. The unison run section at the end would be a great tag for a fusion tune, reminded me of some Chick Corea sort of stuff.
My girlfriend came to the music store with me yesterday to get my new delay pedal and she patiently waited while i checked it out.. so this is dedicated to her.
Musically, I tried to create a rhythm and texture using only natural harmonics…
Moody downtempo instrumental inspired by a single word randomly looked up in the dictionary. (The Dictionary Challenge on the RPM boards!) In no way related to the recent flurry of teenage vampire/werewolf flicks.
Although it doesn't have anything to do with the teen movies.. if you replaced the melody instrument with something grittier it might not be bad for soundtrack material.
Comments on Synaptic Disturbance's stuff
Kind of like heavy surf guitar....i think this would work well in a movie chase scene.
dirty hammer-ons are good. ;)
Smooth clean recording and playing, really into this one!
Very cool SD, like the riffage.
Rockin' album! Riff-laden and crunchy!
Needs a title? How about "When The Cat Up The Tree Was Me." Totally cool jam!
GREAT vibe! Stunning!
Awesome, crunchy, solid!
Still needs work. Good Start. No lead Guitar. needs more depth. MEJ
Good Start, the one Guitar is good and the pinchs are good. Power cords are good. Needs a good lead guitar with the other. MEJ
great rpm!
this is a really great . reminds me of the "justice for all" era metallica. shortest straw.
very meaty groove. good guitar.
Ooh, creepy and effective! Love the rockin' change of mood.
a well built machine
guruvy
Nice riffage! Hope to hear more!
I'm using the Metal Foundry SDX VSTi, programmed in Fruity Loops.
good tool-esque ending too
came back for a second round of listens, what are you using for dums?

Groovy.
Hah... nice lyric alteration. But you left out the rap!

Cool stuff, great feel and changes throughout.

It was a little slow getting started, but I like what you built it up to.
Killer intro, great riffs throughout...
Cool...nice rhythms, and I agree with kirk that the bass + whatever is on top of it sounds great
Tasty! The nylon solo sounds great. Wish I had time/cred to weasel my way in and work with you two ;)

Mmm, delay pedals. Sounds like a clock ticking in places, which in turn makes me think of something that could've gone in a Pink Floyd tune.
Mm, tasty electro groove.

Cool funky groove, the little up and down sounds give it some motion
Cool... would be a great hip-hop beat, although I still prefer it in this form sans vocals ;)
Definitely a bit odd...but interesting, caught my attention
Nice, I enjoyed this. You should paint yourself into corners more often!
Kind of an Our Lady Peace sound... good stuff
Cool tune! Can't decide who it reminds me of... a bit Metallica, a bit Soulmotor I think.
Cool breakdown there around the 3:00 mark!
