A lonely, slow, tune... with a forlorn and sometimes tense distorted guitar (actually my bass). Good music to listen to as you zone out and stare into space.
Melodic, peaceful, and trance-inducing instrumental. Used a synth clav as the underlying thematic instrument, then layered a few other things on top. The "guitar" counter-melody at the end is me playing a bass in the upper registers.

U CREATE WONDERFUL MUSIC. THE PICTURE IS HILARIOUS! HEHE POOR GALILEO THOUGH...GOT IN ALL THAT TROUBLE FOR SEEING THE TRUTH THAT WENT AGAINST RELIGIONS VIEWS. BANISHED TO HIS HOME TILL THE END OF HIS TIME. ATLEASTS HE DIDNT GETWHAT BRUNO GOT HUH?
Chorus is NSFW. Inspired by responses to one of my Facebook status updates requesting suggestions for song ideas. I incorporated all of the ideas offered. Took less than 2 hours, start to finish, to write and record. I really like the synth melodies…
Love the keyboard sounds.. is that the old keyboard? damn I love that keyboard. Not mention very catchy and bouncy. I already see the flames reflected in my eyes - would make a fun music video!

Rhythmic groove with bass and "guitars". In addition to the obvious bass track, the two distorted "guitar" tracks are actually also basses, EQ'ed and altered with various effects to sound less bassy and more guitary.

A Song About an old Saying......
Sh*t Happens......

-In A Day-
Half a Glass of Gasoline
Mixed with Some Kerosene
Stirred in with Coffee
Laced with amphetamine
All That it Takes in A Day
To get by…
Fantastic! I definitely can't disagree with any of the other comments here. The lyrics are great, and the vocals set the perfect mood for the tune. The only suggestion I have is maybe to brighten the acoustic just a touch and maybe add a touch of delay (just a nudge below where you could consciously hear it).
Well i gues i was just sitting bored at home in new years even and i came up with the hook , then just worked on it on and off, and ended up with this.
Hope you enjoy it :)
Post RPM jammin'. I don't feel much like cleaning up after RPM. Not yet anyway. I think my little Casio took a beaten and went out of tune. I did this arrangement with just the Casio, guitars and
harmonica, hence the annoying piano and strings…
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.
I guess I knew this would happen. Talk about creating one's own reality Sheeeeesh. End of the month and my pen has been re-fueled and I added some vox to this one, plus some lead guitar, and a bit of synth strings. I also took a shot at some…
A Song about peace......
Lyrics
T.Mokbul 2010
Know
Maybe it’s looking alright,
But we know........
Maybe it’s looking alright,
But we know........
We don’t Want War....
We don’t Want War.....
In this land where children…
I came up with the initial rhythmic riff on my bass, then looped it to create the basis for this track. Then, I layered another "lead" bass track on top of that, added some percussion, and finally topped it off with an electric piano-ish sound…
Well, song 10 finally. A bit on the heavy side, some odd FX, strange vox, an Ibanez, The ever present harmonica, and some help from Illegal Alien Autopsy.
This was the first song I tracked for RPM. But, since my pen has run out of ink this month…
Where's all this sappy music coming from? The Olympics were on. I must have been watching too much figure skating or something.
Unmastered track from my 2010 RPM Challenge submission.
I wanted to play more directly with noise of various kinds so this piece focuses less on techniques and fancy plugins and more on selection & arrangement of sounds.
I spent many hours going through Reaktor ensembles I've downloaded searching…
An intrumental Track I put together when Thinking about my family.
One Guitar represents my son, one my wife and one me......
Two Versions with Vox (Jim Higgins and Geir Alfsen) are also in existance.. not sure how to link to this site…
Nice! This has a genuine rock feel and tone, and the groove seems simultaneously familiar and fresh. I agree that it could stand alone as an instrumental, but it'd be interesting to hear a version with vocals.
Happy Valentine's Day Everyone.
I think this song has grown on me in the last few
days. I'm diggin' it. I hope you all do too. I
wanted to hurry up and get the demo out for
Valentine's Day. Finished at 3:05am. Wha whoooo!
I need to…
Hey Kids, Happy RPM. Surf's up! I played this one for my lady, she said she wants to move to California. I'm not sure if that's because I've been wired up in the Dog House for 9 days or if she wishes to try some surfing. Go figure....
Anyway…
Comments on Galileo's Cough Drop's stuff
Sounds GREAT. I miss that Roland Juno-106.
Woah, car chase!
Cool!
Oddly fits my mood today as I stare out the window looking at the rain. Nice one!
WOW. I love the sounds and percussion in this one. Excellent work.
oh, and the upper registers of the bass sounds awesome.
very peaceful.
oh sorry - GREAT SONG. I do like it. Very peaceful. I imagine I am travelling to the moon... fun.
Yeah and the Catholic Church was very quick to absolve him too. I believe they came around in 1992 or 1994.

Great stuff. Nice to hear a new track from you
Love the keyboard sounds.. is that the old keyboard? damn I love that keyboard. Not mention very catchy and bouncy. I already see the flames reflected in my eyes - would make a fun music video!
This is great. I picture the credits rolling on a movie like "A Clockwork Orange"... love it!
Awesome ambience.
Brilliant chorus. This is disturbingly catchy, given its facebook origins. :-)
Man I love your stuff. It's atmospheric, nice timbres, great beat. Hope you've got more to upload!
Good music to make you want to zone out and stare into space :)
Love this one.
Lovely.
Wonderful stuff. Suits my mood perfectly on this rainy afternoon

Great dance groove! Nice transitions and development, too.
Good R&B groove!
Definitely nailed the spaghetti western theme! Doesn't sound like it needs a bunch of cleanup. In fact, its pretty awesome as-is!
Excellent track! Love the timbres you chose for this.
Good song, well played! Love the vocal harmonies, too.
Does sound a bit loose, but the raw ingredients are great! Good choices on the guitar tones.
Fun groove, Geas. Lovin' it!
An honest, intimate performance. Good job!
Nice ambient track! I like the peeping of the robotic chicks, begging to be fed their regular meals of internet worms. :D
I think I'll be making a few (hopefully minor) changes to this, maybe adding something else to develop the tune a little more.
Hilarious! Love it.
Congrats on #10! Love the crunch of the guitar, er, AXE!
This is lovely! Extremely emotive tune. I agree with Kirk about the ebow solo.
The coordinated chaos of this is impressive! Those layers are pretty wild.
What a lovely recording... honest and heartfelt playing.

Fun tune! The Casio worked pretty well for this.
The subtlety of this track is quite compelling. The synthy swells are, well, swell! :)
Love this one! Dark and peppy at the same time. Very nice blend.
