A special someone mentioned Truly,Madly,Deeply which I guess is a pop song. RPM Challenge 2016
True as stars shine in the sky
So certainly that I need not ask why
As honest as a heart that's found its key
And unlocked secrets I never could…

A rough month for rock stars
All the good ones are leaving
It's about that time
Just the songs remain and
Public grieving

acapella vocal loop
In the bleak midwinter
Frosty wind made moan
Earth stood hard as iron
Water turned to stone
Snow had fallen
Snow on snow on snow
In the bleak midwinter
Long, long ago

2010 RPM Challenge
I elected to pursue my theme for RPM 2010 even though, ultimately, I decided not to take part.
So I'm going at my own pace, not trying to produce "finished" works, or to be governed by anything except my experimental muse.
The theme I chose…
Came up with a proper title, because I THINK the tuning is open D minor. Thanks for the comments. And BTW, no overdubbing was used. Just used the stereo output from the Yamaha Acoustic Stomp pedal.
This is a newer version of Summer Nights from what I posted on Thanksgiving day. I didn't like the previous version. This is a much cleaner version This song is one I wrote quite a while back. I didn't like the melody so I changed it. Easier…
This is the first tune for my 2010 RPM Challenge.
A bit short...my first attempt earlier in the evening (completely different tune) I ended up scrapping at 1:30 a.m., so this one was done in just a few minutes...
Written and Recorded: Feb…
Part six of the ten-part suite. The tracks segue continuously, so downloading them all and listening to them together is the intended experience. Thanks for checking it out!
Sitting around in my shop a couple of days ago with the Goodall and the Zoom H4N. First time I've really messed with using the internal mics on the H4N in multitrack mode

This track is the result of putting Kavin's excellent track [Propitiation](http://alonetone.com/kavin/tracks/propitiation) through my Steve Reich style phased looper.
It's a beautiful piece but also quite a sparse sound which lead me to think…
Great Texas Blues song.I like the fact that a classic blues tune like this was written right here in East Texas.These songs are truly part of the history of this area, trains still run the tracks, but not nearly as important nowadays to the people…
A remix. I originally mixed this using laptop speakers because I was away from home. Took the drums down and brought the ipod sounds up. Thinking of doing an album of this stuff for RPM. Thanks for yer comments!
This is a rough mix of a song I have been working on. It needs the vocal re doing when I get rid of my cold and there is still a verse or two to write. the final mix is now up on site. called REPO MAN (final mix) check it out
Repo man knocking…
Comments on kavin.'s stuff
What an opener... Love the bitter sweet melody and the space here. Those light touches are superb.
@fallingupart you are correct sir, 808 drum machine in Logic, played live because I was too lazy to sequence a track!
What's supplying the percussion? It sounds as if it's an old analog drum machine, but played live?
Dig it great vocals and mix
Kavin that's beautifully played and sung and spoken. Love the feel and the last line!
Instant fave!
Fits right in with my spaghetti western movie music. We should call Tarantino and hook up :)
Thanks dude. Remind me of my expiration date. Hell, you even put my name in it :)
Beautiful, great playing.
Beautiful Kavin!
Very, very nice!!! I can see myself sat in a high place over Texas (Big Bend?), staring at the horizon and listening to this music!
Kavin beautiful interpretation and choice! Going on your RPM?
Great tune Amigo!
Real nice tune K. Am diggin' it.

Sweet tune. I finally got my variax guitar yesterday.
Love it great guitar
Wow, excellent cover!
Rattling good song. love that guitar work.

@kirklynch It's all bridge pickup, guitar run thru Yamaha AcousticStomp to simulate a miked dreadnought (because I'm lazy).
I like the anthem-ish approach here. Good 'un Doug.
yeehaaw!
Tasty stuff!
This is kick@$$!
Great energy, charging guitars and vocals! Keep on Colin

Good song Gilbert, nice.
Yay Doug's back! I like the urgency in this one. Kinda like RPM itself.
Parts IV thru VI, I made that run a couple years ago, this would have been a good soundtrack. Great stuff.
Doing RPM?
Beautiful. One of your best.
Ah a song about my 2nd favorite hobby (besides music), much to my wife's chagrin ;-}
WOWOWEEEE!!
That's just like down home!

Like this one alot, but ended abruptly?
This is very cool.
Lovely. Great start for the new year.
@ dougsparling, apps used: Tongue Drum, Ellatron lite (mellatron), Bebot (theremin sound). I think all were free except bebot.
