If the synth intro doesn't do anything for you, just wait about two minutes for the main part of the song to start.

A typical folk song.
Written and recorded in about an hour for the 24 hour album (attempted on March 13th). Excuse roughness and vocal glitches, it was 2am and this was my first full take.
Thanks to montgomeru for his chord suggestions…
Matter Of Fate- This song started as a riff I was doing while tuning my guitar. It sounded cool, so I happened to record it on a small dictation recorder I have so I wouldn’t forget it. When I listened to the riff it just screamed Sticky Fingers…
An ambient anthemic piece.
The process:
- Start with a live take of me playing an iphone app called tonepad.
- add camelphat and camelspace
- add an Alchemy instance, find a big fat pad, work out a riff
- record a single take accompanying the…
Sometimes a tune pops up right to left field. This is one of em! I backed it up with a stand-up bass track which I was intending to re-record before RPM submission but ran outta time.
Three years ago, I brought my two youngest up to the summit of a local mountain (actually, we went up Shelving Rock Mountain, but that song wouldn't be as good). Have a listen to see how that hike went.
I recently bought the Imperfect Samples [Braunschweig Upright](http://www.imperfectsamples.com/website/samples/braunschweig/braunschweiguprightpiano.php) (Pro) sampled piano for Kontakt after falling in love with the sound of the demos.
I have…
Cave Street posted a track recently, their contribution to the Woody Guthrie Project, organised by Akron Family.

Great guitar!! (As always!)

Lulls you with the rain sample and ambient gtr then hits you over the head with that killer take no prisoners riff!
@ GFox, ER, et al Aw shux, thanks.
Wow. It's been too long. Great song.
Very cool! Yes, Stones-ish but "happier" than most of their stuff. Nice slide part too.
Yay! Let's hear it for apps. Like this a lot.
Good jammin'!
Pretty darn cool.
Disturbing. Funny. Inventive. Sometimes all at once.
Great pickin'. Hearing this alternate with chimps8myears is jarring, but in a good way!
Very nice laid back acoustic songwriter album. Makes me wanna do something like this next year RPM.
Great southern rock feel on this 'un.
Agree with Kirk, this is great. Must pull out my copy of Koyanisqatsi and watch it again.
Very cool, this.
I was going to give you some positive feedback on this track, but looks like you already got some! :>D
Definitely going on my best of RPM10 mix cd.
@ Hardrick the bass sound is the fretless bass software instrument in Logic express. Pretty cool huh?
This is a fun album! Almost makes me wish we still had a little one (not..). This track in particular evokes Eno.
Yawl did good on this, I love WG. Thanks for the link!
Sounds straight outta 1965! Love it!
oooo good album but I have a weakness for instrumentals like this.
