very nice,, im not sure what you mean by gband experiments,, is this all written and done on pc? however it's done it sounds pretty good,, and yes the piano at 1:30 ish is very cool
Messing with pitch adjustment in Garageband (and getting a bit carried away)... I use this primarily as a 90-second countdown for competitions in my 7th grade math class (kind of a Jeopardy theme song).
Someday I'll actually teach myself how to play this song for real... Only a drag-and-drop composition for now, but awfully nice to listen to (particularly the gentle part at around 2:00).
No, this is NOT me playing... Just some arranging of drop and drag samples out of Garageband for Mac I was messing around with while learning how the program worked a few years ago.
We're so quick to judge others. We really shouldn't.
This one follows the tone of It Mattered To No One Else. I actually had a lot more song ideas like these two that I thought would end up being the whole record. But it didn't happen that…
Similar to a couple of other tunes this year, the How Many More? chorus idea has been floating around my addled head for a few years, but again, it wouldn't come to shore. But in promising my ideas that I never give up on them, I tried it again…
The Again, Again, Again line and melody has been flowing through my brain since 2017 or so. But if we are merely vessels for songs that are waiting to come to our shores, I was a leaky boat for a very long time and couldn't make the journey without…

Another one where the riff came first, on the last day of RPM 2020 actually. Before all the craziness struck. I thought to myself "Oh self! That's a good riff! I will need to revisit it next year for RPM 2021." So I did. It also has a call-back…
Never forget the simple pleasure of just listening to music. I wrote a whole album about it a few years ago called The Lost Art Of Listening. This one's about how a song can simultaneously take you away from the concerns of life, yet make you…
I can actually hear Daltrey sing this with Townsend providing harmonies. Dang, Gary. And the song just gets better and better as it progresses. Just, dang.
What else can be said of the last 12 months? Everybody wants a piece of my time. Get in line.
The riff came first and I walked around for days just banging it out non-stop. Hammer-ons for fun and pleasure...
Originally I had a Motown idea in mind, and I kept my stomping and clapping, but the song seemed to lend itself to a more spacey-synthey feel, so I ran with it. I also am hinting a tiny (very tiny) bit at Joe Jackson's band's backing vocal styles…
Written and recorded as part of our family RPM project this year. :-D
13 year old Jasmine on vocals and ukulele.
We wrote and recorded 10 songs under the name Cattica. It was just the best month of lockdown imaginable.

Nice work.
Very cool! Sounds masterful! (I must look in to Garageband!)

Very nice - Perfect vox/acoustic balance. I really like how your guitar is recorded.
For drag and drop mate this is very cool.
Nice one mate dig it.
Sounds good mate, does Garageband work in windows
Nice one mate.
Nice one mate. Very cool dig it.
I apologize in advance for the slight run into "cheesy-ness" at around 0:40... A bit "Romeo's Tune-ish" there for a minute, but all in good fun.
Just some more drop and drag... Personally, I'm addicted to the little "Thomas Crown-ish" piano runs at around 1:30.
It does love you Sister Savage...it's just shy. :)
Can't get this to play. It obviously doesn't love me!
Ah, so let me see, you're playing while the kids are working? Sweet! Cool composition!
Well done , nice mix.
nice.

Wow, brilliant! I don't really understand what Garageband is...is this you playing?

Yup. This is good. This is very, very good.
...but Pete Townsend definitely had final say.
It just hit me. This album is what would happen if The Who and Styx were put in a room and told, "Don't come out until you've made something amazing."
Favorited with the opening notes.
Yup. This is good. Damn, Gary, this is one hell of a cleanly produced album. Always amazed by what you do.

Righteous! Righteous!
First one in! Let's do this!!!
Yup. This is my favorite so far - but you likely knew I'd like this one best when you recorded it.
Just back to listen to the original. Damn, soooooooo good.
Just so spectacularly beautiful. Truly, one of my all-time favorite songs by any artist ever. Period.
My all-time favorite from you. Just spectacular.
This is such a classic.
Dang. Well, it appears that your family has hogged all the talent. Just SPECTACULAR.
Love it from the first note!
...and of course, it's BRILLIANT.
First one in! So good to see a new song up from you, my friend.
Loooooving this.
GREAT album! It just keeps getting stronger and stronger and closes with this outstanding track. Well done!!!
Nope. I lied. New favorite, this one.
