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.
I unleash my secret weapon!
Guest vocalist Shaka brings the icing to this rather haunted version of the first chapter of Cold Mountain by Charles Frazier!
I imagine this music playing in a bar sometime in the future, probably in the background while cybernetic bar patrons interface with one another in full view of the world's sensor network.
A Song about peace......
Lyrics
T.Mokbul 2010
Know
Maybe it’s looking alright,
But we know........
Maybe it’s looking alright,
But we know........
We don’t Want War....
We don’t Want War.....
In this land where children…
This provides a theory which ties together two of my key traits a) always tired b) terminally disappointed by peoples lack of courtesy - there's a link people!
Did you ever feel so down
That you didnt know up
Didnt recognise highs
And smiles…
A folksy number inspired by the stories my nan told me many moons ago about her uncle Herbie..
Herein lies the story, of a man named Herbie Jones.
Not a million miles away from a man you might have known.
A miner in the twenties, blue scars…
I guess I knew this would happen. Talk about creating one's own reality Sheeeeesh. End of the month and my pen has been re-fueled and I added some vox to this one, plus some lead guitar, and a bit of synth strings. I also took a shot at some…
Featuring Otis Maly on Organ.
Maybe it’s a trick of the light
The way your eyes shine at me
I don’t want to fight and I can’t take flight
Somethin’ tells me I’m gonna see
Just what spell you put on me
I can’t let you out of my sight…
This one features Treefrog "playing the wind" on a talking drum...
She’s like the wind
that moves through the night chasing ghosts
She sees the lights,
she sees the shadows and she knows
There is a difference
between the day and night…
Written and Recorded: Feb 21, 2010

This is the original version, the light to the dark of the other. The Max Ulis version ended up on my album, he did such a good job I couldn't pass it up.
Well, song 10 finally. A bit on the heavy side, some odd FX, strange vox, an Ibanez, The ever present harmonica, and some help from Illegal Alien Autopsy.
This was the first song I tracked for RPM. But, since my pen has run out of ink this month…
This is probably the least electronic-sounding of everything that I did from RPM 2010, although it still heavily uses samples (either self-sampled or from Freesound).
That is me playing the harmonica, though. (No, really!)
If the song makes…

We call this Beat-box ghosts (the prog-fu mix). A fun collab between Osckilo and myself. Osckilo had this song he did called Ghosts, all done beat-box. I had to ask him what beat-box meant, I had no idea. I took his original track (just his…

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!

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

Great sounds here - Wish it had been a little longer, though!!!
I like this one - The vox are cool.
Killer - I like the "loud" sound.
I like it!
Dude, you are a vampire... And I've been bitten!
So this is why you made yourself scarce.. Fantastic song, bro! Post the lyrics, I want to read them.
How did you find out about me, man? :) Seriously, I dig this and can relate. And I agree, awesome songwriting!
Those vox are money, Alex. I love the gated sound - I want to do that. Great songwriting. Brilliant lyrics, just awesome, man!!!
Yes! The additions are workin' fine! I could play this all day.... I will play this all day!
I dig this one - Awesome!
Excellent - Top notch tune, excellent vox and acoustic recording.
:) Cool tune!
Your clips are so "listenable", bro! They flow like water.... No, butter!
Yes, I love it. Killer groove for "a quick one"
I've listened to this twice. Not sure why I want to keep this on repeat, but it's great! Mesmerizing vox. Enchanting as hell.
Dude, I love that avatar.
This is killer - Had to loop it for a bit. Woostah, huh? I'm a stones throw away in So. Nampshah!
I was thinking this would be cool game music, and then I read the description. It IS game music. Excellent.
I forgot to follow you so I didn't see you put this up. This is great!! Freaky stuff, guys!
This one digs in good!! Just the right touch of flanger, too. And cool, cool vox and harp. Excellent collab, guys! Kicks ass!!
