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…

Very catchy indeed. I know I haven't been around much but I somehow missed this awesome track.
Love the harmonies, and the way your understated vocals are up in the mix and not overpowered by the guitar in the chorus. Excellent!

love the contrasting guitar sounds...sticky versus (is there a word for something non-sticky? - lubed???)
anyway...this is a treat! Very pro sounding and right up my alley.
Ok, so I'm just a percussionist, and if your only tool is a hammer, the entire world looks like a nail. I get it. And I also get that our songs are our children, so we should be very careful about whom we let them play with.
When I first heard…
How did I miss this? Very cool and original - No idea how you managed to perfectly sync with the piano. Love it, though.
(And yes, it was a while ago, but I still miss my dog. You never get over it do you? But I really see the humor in a sad dude pining away over his lost dog, too!)
Taking a breather from a few other projects and fired up some drum loops. 3 hip hop beats at 80 bpm. Funny how they just line up like that.
I added some 70's disco synth and some spooky sounds and Bingo.......spooky hip hop.
Go figure.....
Enjoying a few tracks on this site with Indian flavor lately. My brothers legs were so red from slapping them to get the perc sounds in this track, I had to laugh, That alone was worth doing the song ;)
Enjoy # 92

Crown of Dust

If wealth was found in Shitty eyes
A thousand diamonds…
warning!!! this is a long 10+ min instrumental
It's a piece about 4 years old that was my first attempt at using synth voices,, I am still looking for a good one,, if anyone knows.
The music itself is a tone poem, loosely dedicated to a children…
Little country ditty with a "hook" :) recorded a few years ago at Boyd's in Wylie. I am singing lead and harmonies. That keyboard player is my talented cousin, Robert Nichols, who turned me onto this site. You can search for him here on Alonetone…
walking down the street in the 1973, you're wearing yellow tinted shades, and a hat with a feather in it. Your switchblade is in your pocket, but you're not gonna need to use it today. Cause the sun is shining and folks are eating ice cream…
On youtube there's a short video clip of guitarist Shawn Lane (R.I.P) executing an extremely difficult chord voicing that requires extensive finger stretching, which Shawn calls "the hardest chord in the world." I altered the chord a little bit…
613 is a prime number, 136 is triangular, and 361 is a square number - I didn't know what to name it ( but I wrote a math book once called Mathematical Bliss). Anyone want to put some metal vocals on this?
Comments on launched's stuff
Judging by your comment at the end, you are not happy with it. I think this deserves your time when you are feeling better, it's a really good song.
Booyah!!
This is great. I dig your style man.
Holy crap Mark, this is deep stuff.
Are you gonna electrify this one?
Thanks for your comments man!
Man. Love that guitar. Great sound all around. Bravo
Thought-provoking lyrics, and a melody that kind of pulls at the listener. Great song-writing (as usual).
First class coolness Mister. There's a great hook happening here. I keep listening over and over.
Great writing! Get well soon!
Amazing job Mark bro! OUTSTANDING! Love the vox! Pesky swine flu!
You're able to pull that off with swine flu?!?! Amazing! And get better soon!!!
sounds pretty good to me! Nice track! Great lyrics too! Hope you are feeling better!
Welcome to the party. Interesting limitation(?) you've chosen.

Nice sound, looking forward to hearing what you do for rpm

I'm glad you got on board with RPM. I dig this style you have.
"Hey!!" this still kicks ass!!

Badass, man!! Love those bass runs!
Dude, this is infectious!

Delicious tune, man. Really cool locked in bass and drum sound.
Holy smokes, bro! Shush is "Lush". I get kind of an Andy Summers vibe to this - One of my favorite guitarists. I frickin' love it!
Spoooookeeeeeee!!!!!!! Yes, I love it!!
Sweeeeeeet!!! A great soother for a hangover. I like the story behind the percussion :)
Great tune, and I love the singing and strumming patterns.
Yummy tune, bro. Tell that bass player to stop playing drunk :) - Mark
Big time awesome, bro! Amazing how you did it one take into the MBR hole! Love it!
Epic and wonderful. Well worth the listening investment!
How can you not love the pants of this one? Cool groove.
Brilliant and wonderful. Great song!
Oh, yeah! I dig.
Yes - I love it
Yep, love it!
Shit hot tune, bro! The triteness is kick ass. Beautiful, just beautiful.
Hell Yeah!
Massive shredding! Very intense. And all done without a Kentucky Fried Chicken bucket and Michael Myers mask, I presume :) Great playing!
Solid! Miles Davis, huh?
