Track 5 from RPM 2010 "They Are Killers." I actually feel like this one's a little sloppy... post-RPM I'm considering re-tracking all of the guitars on most of my songs to do a better release.

If the synth intro doesn't do anything for you, just wait about two minutes for the main part of the song to start. Uses two Creative Commons samples from freesound.org: 2523 RHumphries rbh thunder storm 2524 RHumphries rbh thunder 02

Track three from the 2010 RPM album "They Are Killers"

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.

The intro track for my 2010 RPM album. This will eventually be mixed to fade into the second track, "The Seeker," but I'll do all of that work in final production I guess.

Written and recorded for the "Dictionary Challenge" on the RPM Challenge forums--take a word or phrase randomly chosen from the dictionary (mine was "piece work") and write a song (arguably) inspired by said word or phrase.

Intended as a last musical hurrah for 2009...but I didn't quite get to finish the mixing until today.

A short interpretation of Carol of the Bells, complete with freakout in the middle.

Mostly driven by electronics, most of the people who listened to its demo form said it was too repetitive. After I added the guitar overdubs and the break in the middle, those same people liked it much better.

This was intended to go much longer than it did, and take a darker or heavier twist...but instead it just ended.

This song was composed just by selecting random chord names in the piano roll in Fruity Loops, and then going from there. The offset piano melody in the beginning was a happy accident (in that I painted it at the wrong offset in the step sequencer…

This song started off just on bass and was saved in demo form as "bass led", as in led by the bass. When I needed titles for all the album tracks, I ended up taking "led" and making it "LED"--light-emitting diode.

This got its name because I thought it sounded like it could be a section in a Pelican song. I went to Wikipedia to look up Latin names of pelican species and settled on this one.

Straight-up rock song, the first guitar-driven song I wrote during these sessions and one of my favorite songs I've written/recorded so far.

This was more of an experiment with a couple synthesizers and abusing them with distortion and ring modulators.

Clocking in at just over a minute, this was something a song that I started on and then kind of gave up on.

This song was originally titled "Spiky" in its demo form, because it was originally supposed to be an attempt to write a song in the style of Porcupine Tree. Still not quite there on the PT worship.

Another song that I just had to pick a random name for. It was thrown together at the last minute, but I think it came out well.
