Inspired by a large stone I saw in the Ortspark in Munich, which somebody had carefully engraved with the name Mabel.
No loops used this time, all virtual instruments played by me. Cymbal, guitar, acoustic guitar, violin.
A thoughtfully constructed and genuinely performed song, Steve. I particularly appreciate that way the violin and acoustic guitar interweave throughout. Nice job!
Thanks Tom. Yes, the track is shorter than I expected. I wanted the guitars speeded up, and in doing so it shortened the whole track considerably. Perhaps I will extend it. Cheers for listening : )
Love the funky bass in this one, Steve! My only "complaint" (if you want to call it that) is that I wish it were a little longer. That said, what you've made here sticks in the listener's mind far longer than its 1 and half minute run time might suggest, so I can see how one could argue the length is perfect.
Synths are meant to represent the fast beating heart of the technological city, with its busy trains and industrious people. The breathing is life, and the cheerful keyboard is supposed to be the fun and excitement of life in a city with a flourishing…
Thanks for listening and commenting on my track In 2. I'm returning the favor and the support. Well produced and interesting techno to my ears. Keep the muse going!
Cyborgs conquer the planet, crushing resistance and enslaving the human race. The cello represents the people who ignore the destruction and carry on as normal, like the orchestra playing on the deck of the Titanic as it went down.
That beer on the table yours or mine?
I only left the room for a short time.
If you've gone and switched them I'm gonna be sad,
Cos that beer was the best one that I ever had.
Don't drink my beer, you hear?
I'm counting to 4 just to make…

Thank you Tom and AMUC. They are professional loops, except for the two synths which I played at the beginning and repeated. The timing takes care of itself once you have set the speed up. It's choosing what to use, how to arrange it and make it sound interesting is the fun and challenge of it for me. I'm grateful for your feedback.
RPM17

First song on RPM 17....eh first song on RPM ever lol
Really glad I made this one.
I had to dig up an old VHS tape (anyone remember those?) for the audio sample in this track.
The hardest part about making this tune was actually…

Thanks for that Proods!
Fun! A toe tappin' collage of sound!
Thanks for listening Tom. Glad you like it. : )
Aptly titled--I definitely was stomping along to the rhythm of this song. You mix a nice contrast of styles here. Well done, Steve!
Thanks for listening guest : )
Smooth
Thanks for your support and encouragement Tom : )
A really cool contrast between crunchy verses and catchy choruses, Steve! Big thumbs up!

Thanks reefwalker and Tom. Glad you enjoyed it. I will write the lyrics up.
Like it! Very short.
Nice arrangement. Cool!
Like the singing. Beck's songs are a bit melancholic. You perform this very well. Good job!
Nice version Tom. Tone of it sounds great. Suits your style.
Great cover : )
Thanks Brett

Great vocals, imaginative, progressive and listenable song. Love it!
Stylish, unique, effective, fun, enjoyable, kind of early 70s experience for me. Great work Brett!
Love the arrangement. Reminiscent of old Ash for me. Great tone on the guitar. Great job!
Interesting cocktail : )
Very nice. Cool guitars and laid back feel.
Lovely vocals. Well performed as usual Tom. I'm sure most of us can relate to this subject.
Another song, not sure who Jim is criticising again. Clever lyrics, and I think you deliver them simply and yet effectively. Good work!
Nice version Tom. Don't know the song or whether it's literally about another person, or religion, or what? It's sad, but I like it.
Thanks for your lyrics and vocal performance Tom. Kind of brought it to life!
Thanks fairynuff : )
Like it. Good job and nice arrangement :)
Nice one. Movin' to this groove
