Technically not part of my RPM 2023 project, and it was mainly recorded in January 2023. It is probably not worth listening to, but I can't make a playlist with a prime number of songs so this is #6.
The song lyrics will not make any sense…

If this wasn't such a hot mess I'd be more ashamed of myself than I already am.
Use me up before I expire
Just read the label, the warning is dire
I'm Long past my best-by timer
Got a little bit of a rotten slimer

As great as the previous songs were, I think this one is my favorite. Such a funky groove & then that descending progression had me hooked, but then that bass breakdown just puts it over the top!
Last song? Ever?? The hell you say! No way man, this has a great riff, funky bass, vocal harmonies. You need to put together a band and bring this stuff into a live setting!
OMG, these titles are cracking me up! Is the best singing you've ever done? Definitely the most emotive! Wow, Dave you really do keep getting better each year. I wonder if not having Olivia recording with you this year somehow inpired you push yourself? And again, I'd really love to be able to read the lyrics!
Great solo, Dave!! Put those lyrics up when you get a chance! This somehow reminds me a little bit of Psychic Ills, like maybe something from their Inner Journey Out record. Whatever, it's a cool stoney vibe!!

That guitar opening caught my attention right away. I love the harmonies too...beautiful. Well done Dweeb. btw...I'm so impressed with your longstanding RPM participation (very inspiring...thank you). Of course, I would always like to hear more (but you have already given so much). Enjoy a good rest (creative work can take it out of us). Ohh....nice ending on this song too......!!!
An epic song about bathroom remodeling. Written and recorded by request.
-------------------------------
So many things are going wrong
It’s been getting worse far too long
I cannot bear to look at you
You cannot do the things you used…
That is a fun song that can be read in many different ways :). Nicely done!!! I feel a the bath calling me after listening to this. Oh, nice guitar solo here too.
Not too happy with it, and I am not sure I would have even kept it except I kinda like The Bridge. Bad mic choices, but I didn't think it was worth going back to re-record everything
---------------------
Having trouble getting up from on…
Wait, I like this! Really great lyrics and has a great flow and chord changes. Yup, that bridge is really nice.
We are too close to judge when it is our own. But yeah, I've spend more time on songs I've hated trying to get them to work than I care to admit....it's like a battle. But RPM dictates that we must move on!! lol
Gone on a travel on a winter day
It doesn’t matter any price I’ll pay

Nice one, hope you're having fun. I'm exhausted! (But feeling extremely empowered, and yes having fun).
I'm digging this one too. Love that wah guitar break. And again, the subject matter hits home for me... I could sing these words to someone very close to me!
It's summer time, I'm at a cottage, I've been listening to a lot of weird electronic music and thinking about the world burning up. I'm playing around with layering vocals - something I love. Thanks to anyone who listens even for a few seconds…
Going through my collection over the years...thinking I'll post some of those old tunes (pretty rough and ready....one take, recorded on garage band I believe). Why not...life is short! Thanks to anyone who listens :)
The final Song for my 2023 RPM challenge!! Dusted off my acoustic guitar (and blistered my fingers) to get this one done. Phew! I love Latin rhythms and so I found a beat and jammed it up. Thanks again to anyone who listens -it's really fun…
A perfect ending to the album. Harmonies so nice. I used some Maracas, Guiro, and Clave this year and I wish I could feel a Latin beat like this.
I wanted to thank you for you support, you helped me so much the last couple of years. Even if I never make anything else, I will still follow.
Song 8# of my RPM Album. I love Persian scales and so I wanted to play with that a bit here. I managed to do my own finger snapping through the whole tune and didn't use a loop - I'm known for my rather loud snapping ability.
In another…
6th song for my RPM album. If you like slow and depressing music...this is for you! I had a blast using my new crash cymbal and brushes...my fingers are not very pleased about playing the bass riff however (ouch).
somehow you knew me
and…
Okay, RPM Song 3 finished. It's a weird song melodically speaking (yup, that's actually intentional lol). Oddly, it took an extremely long time to produce this one and my eyes are now very blurry. I guess this is an "urban" song (though I…
Well...This is song #10 for my 2022 RPM challenge- the final track for my "album". It's a bit like two songs that found each other somehow. That makes for a very long track! eek. Thank you to everyone who has been listening to my songs...it…
Beautiful. It's interesting that you can look at the visualizer and SEE where they first find each other. Your album is really the highlight of this year's RPM for me.
Some days I'm the preacher with my head up in a cloud
Some days I'm a gentleman who does my mama proud
But some days I'm the creature who just arrived from Mars
And some days I'm the futurist who drives electric cars
Some days I'm the…
Song 5 for the RPM Challenge. Building tunes around an incessant bass line is oddly appealing to me. This is a bit of a dystopian song of sorts. Thanks to anyone who listens!
Take me to the river
and hold me under water
Bow down beside…
Pick it up first thing in the morning
Looking down when the day is dawning
Takin it along from room to room
Bright icons on a tiny screen
Means more to you than me
I’m hoping you notice pretty soon
It’s clear, and I fear
It’s understandable…
1) Be a complementary force to the alignment that they call the change of leadership.
2) Use attraction, alignment and avoidance and extended this with a number of traits.
RPM 2015 Feb. 18 update: I cut a new vocal for this one which is an improvement, but this mix is still not right. Dunno if I'll have time to fix it before the deadline... (This is the full length track as opposed to the truncated version with…

Comments on Dweeb's stuff
Wohl eher Karma gehen 😄
Mhhhhhh. Gar nicht mal so gut!
Not Bad Not good
Üben üben üben!
Was für ein Krach 😔 Sorry aber nicht mein Ding
Heavy WeeN vibes!! I was wrong, THIS one is my favorite & my new ear-worm!! Dig that solo mang. Gener would be proud!
As great as the previous songs were, I think this one is my favorite. Such a funky groove & then that descending progression had me hooked, but then that bass breakdown just puts it over the top!

Holy crap, "Morganite and quartz are intertwiiiined...." is an ear-worm that's gonna haunt me!
Reminds me of some TMBG

Awesome! Lyrics are great...and very catchy and love the harmonica. Well done. Love the chorus hook...original too.
seriously - that is an amazing catchy chorus - total hook!
Great lyrics!!! (I relate). I love that chorus (you will feel like you!)- nice harmony work. Cool guitar riff. Nicely done.
ooh, I like that ...
Nice one, hope you're having fun. I'm exhausted! (But feeling extremely empowered, and yes having fun). I'm digging this one too. Love that wah guitar break. And again, the subject matter hits home for me... I could sing these words to someone very close to me!

Always love the idea of vocals used as part of the rhythm. An age-old method used perfectly here.
Jazz-ma-tazz-tic

Got me belly-dancing. Thankfully nobody was around to see that.
Awesome. I love playing bass but I don't do it often enough to develop real calluses, so I can relate. Outstanding recording.
Incredibly creative, the break is a real smash.
This is better than most of the stuff I've made while listening
Beautiful. It's interesting that you can look at the visualizer and SEE where they first find each other. Your album is really the highlight of this year's RPM for me.
Great chorus. Is this performed "live"?
Some space, some funk, exactly right.
The whole thing is great, I hope you can make a career out of this
Did a quick fix, it was mastered way too low.
So flabbergasting that my gasts are all flabbered out!
Too awesome. Stop it!
Grooovy!
Creeeepy!
If I forgot to click "favorite" for any of these songs, forgive me, it was a mistake.
T-pain!!
Thanks for making us all seem lame again.
beautiful
