Another one from the dusty special price bin! It started off as a Pilot cover, but it didn't end up that way.
Dave Berry added the excellent tele solos and the crazy cool noises at the end. Thanks bro, you rock!
I spent more time on this…
The vodka, ahhh. One of 3 that I recorded to a dimming flashlight during a power outage.
One take into the Micro BR hole with some harmony and noodle overdubs.
Vodka
I want the vodka
'Cause I know it's gonna make me play better…
I recorded this one to a dimming flashlight on the 25th after a windstorm took out my power. I couldn't see the lyrics anymore so I ad libbed and hummed the rest out. My recording device is battery operated, which is cool.

My only musical Christmas present. Tharek(Osckilo) sent me a wonderful Spanish/Arab sounding guitar track. All I had to do was sing. Sometimes that is the biggest treat of all, and I took full advantage of it. Thanks, bro!!
All done on the…
A Halloween collab we did last fall that I thought was pretty cool. Designed to scare old ladies and make babies cry :) I love the way the song peters off in the end.
All tracks recorded with the Boss Micro BR, mixed with Audacity and mastered…

gee.... I've recorded under the same influence! "Excuse me sir... but could you tell us, for all your listeners out there, what was your influence in making this music?" "Oh, I'd say it was vodka....".

Nice, Launched. I'm a fan of the sparce, (when I do it I call it"austere", "minimalist", pisses off my friends who believe a song has to have certain things in it to be bonafide, and I love doing that too!)And, thanks for the listen, and the comments. New Hampshire? I'm in Kittery Point. Maybe we'll collide at the listening party.

Aw, sorry to hear about your RPM - was wondering.
I love this track - your voice sounds especially soulful, and the melody tugs at the listener.
And great back story.
Yes - I love it! The strum is very addictive, and the light percussion works very well. Excellent vox, but could be a little higher in the mix, though.

2010 RPM Challenge
This is the song that helped start my acoustic journey!
My humble acoustic version:
http://alonetone.com/launched/tracks/do-unplugged
You rock, bro!
Mark
After I read into RPM and understood that anybody could take the challenge, I joined up. I'm starting with a clean slate, so I hope I can finish! This a WIP of the first tune I'm working on. Everything I do will be recorded/produced with the Boss…
Ha, that's funny Bethan - I just finished reading "Down and out in Paris and London" and thought "Instead of meeting up with an old friend, how about an old flame?"
Lyrics I have so far:
Been traveling my crooked way
My feelings like
An unleashed dog on the run
I've roamed a mile in those shoes
I'm really glad
Those sidewalkin' days are done
When I look at you
The peace flag flies
And I want to call you the one
But those eyes are devious, girl
You remember when
We had our days in the sun
By no means the first song that popped out. It's just the first one I'm calling done beyond a remix. I think this will wind up leading in to a metal tune and will likely be shorter.
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…
Comments on launched's stuff
Nice one mate dig it. Thanks for your recent comments mate. Great vocals well mixed. Top track.
I know this tune....I want the vodka!!! Great catchy song!!! Gnasty
Hey Launched, Love this tune man!! Great Groove!! Great Production!! Gnasty
Pure magic. Even in the face of adversity - the show must go on. Well done, nice track.
No objection to the BGE sequel. Nothing but encouragement from my end. Let me know if you need any help with anything.
Where does Baby Green Ernie fit in with all this?
I like your voice .
I like it hot.
Oh, shame about your RPM. This is a great song, produced under extreme conditions, I curtsy to you sir.
I guess I wasn't the only one who suffered a blackout during RPM. Thank the makers for acoustic instruments. Great job, in the dark.
some freakin' freakout shit going on!
Great tune...one of my favorites of yours. Has the Money Mark sound!
exotic and infectious...excellent collab!
Great spook factor...Count Floyd says: ahoooooooooooo!
this came out real nice...dark and brooding.
Fly on Baby Green Ernie, Fly on.
gee.... I've recorded under the same influence! "Excuse me sir... but could you tell us, for all your listeners out there, what was your influence in making this music?" "Oh, I'd say it was vodka....".

Haha, love the howling at the moon part, and your laugh, awesome!

Yeah, I do the same thing with vox - It's a job to "hide" them a little, but bring them out at the same time. Really cool tune.
Another listen - Really enjoyed this one!
Yes - I love it! The strum is very addictive, and the light percussion works very well. Excellent vox, but could be a little higher in the mix, though.
Oh, yeah, I dig!
Really cool soundscape - brilliant!
Yes - I love it!
Awesome and cool at the same time!
Big time cool! I'd like to be off the planet, let alone be off the map!
I could play this one all day. And the "scuba" bass is killer!

I see the Grittmeister is up and running!!!! Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!!!!!!!!

This is working out great - A metal tune connected with this vibe will be killer.
Yes - I love it!
This was a tease! I really loved the groove you had going... And then... Cool!
I feel the intensity - And it gets stronger as the song progresses. Really cool.
I'm thinking more Pixies meet Smashing Pumpkins, but I could be wrong! Cool tune.
Mechanically organic! I could set this one on repeat for a while. Super cool!
I feel it!
Yes - I love it.
