2022 RPM Challenge, song number eight out of (hopefully) 20. I liked this one a lot right off the bat. I even put a note on the trello card that this one might be the winner. I'm not so sure about that anymore, but I do like it. I dig how…

The first song worked on and the first song finished. The 2022 RPM Challenge is well underway! I had a few gimmicky ideas for this year's challenge and this song hits on some of them. First, I wanted to get away from the small room reverb…

Song #4 of the 2022 RPM Challenge. I like this one. If this were a real album and I had to pick a single for release this one would be on the short list. Even if it is in 6/4 time and GarageBand's drummers almost always put a pointless crash…

2022 RPM Challenge song number 17. Now we're talking. I like this one a lot. My self criticism are valid, the melody in the verse is too la di da sing songy, and I shouldn't have used a Big Muff fuzz pedal on the rhythm tracks (too much bass…

2022 RPM Challenge song #20 of 20! The fact that this is song number 20 is part of the story behind it. I was sitting on 19 and feeling pretty wiped out. I wanted to hit 20 just to say I had two RPM Challenge albums but nothing was coming…

2022 RPM Challenge song number 18. I still have two more songs to mix but as of right now this is hands down my favorite of the batch (spoiler alert, I think I might be saying that about the two songs that are left as well). Usually when I…

2022 RPM Challenge song number 19. Go to the head of the class, dude. I said that song #18 was the best song of the bunch but now here is song #19 taking the title and squashing 18 like the proverbial grape. In other words, I really like…

Heard something crawling in the walls this morning Later on, I heard that fateful snap The little critter never had a warning I'll have to head on down to face the guilt that's waiting When I check the trap A pair of trees I planted in…

The vastness of the ocean A darkness in the sky A lifetime of emotion How hard you've had to try To navigate the currents And the demons in the deep You have to stay awake 'Cuz they might take you in your sleep You wish that you could…

Well, this may be the final tweaking of this nice little sing along song... I sent this fun little sing along off to Jim of MTC fame, and once again he has outdone himself... And I can't thank him and his wife (who appears covertly) enough…
