A song about falling asleep on the couch, so there is no mystery to it! But the loose change is in the cushions, lights and tv are on, and the oven has been set to 350 for several hours :)
One vocal & acoustic take with a harmony and noodle…
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

This is probably the darkest song I've ever done, at least as far as lyrical tone goes. Sometimes life just doesn't seem worth the effort. Then I look at my lovely bride and realize that it is.
Written and Recorded: Feb 28, 2010
Details: Epiphone Les Paul (FBbEbGCF, FBbEbGDbF, Capo III), Seymour Duncan Pickups, POD XT, Boss RC-20 Looper, Audacity...all fingers, no picks.
Last track for RPM 2010, and by far my favorite of the batch…
A heartbroken man wonders where his lover has gone in this epic synth explosion.
Lyrics:
I got a letter
In the mail
From my lover
Well I don't know where she went
And I must find her, find her
I have found her
She was fine
But my…
Emotions get the best of me sometimes and this is what comes of it....
Gotta pour out my heart.
i loved you i did
but i had to let you go
and i chose again and again
to let it die
i died again and again
a love so strong
a pain so…
Post RPM jammin'. I don't feel much like cleaning up after RPM. Not yet anyway. I think my little Casio took a beaten and went out of tune. I did this arrangement with just the Casio, guitars and
harmonica, hence the annoying piano and strings…
I mostly wanted to make music with a funky clav line I'd come up with, so this is it. For the voiceover, I unabashedly used an awesome monologue by Ken Nordine.
This is track 8 of 8 from my RPM project, 222: Improvisations for 6 Instruments. I recorded an 8:38 improvisation on six instruments, and then deconstructed it into 8 separate tracks featuring subsets of those instruments. This is the track that…
I love this - A groove starts, we are thrown into an abyss of asymptotic dissonance and then gradually pulled back out before it's too late...
Awesome ride!

Yes, it's a little dark, and has a cool beat to it. I like it!
This is great - A deep an lush soundscape that you have pained with that cool gear you have!
A wild ass mass of destruction! Love it!
This is the sh*t, man! Right on the edge, so cool - And the Frusciante style lead is great!
Cool song - I thought the organ solo was a nice touch.
Oh, and thanks for the Dave Mustaine comment. I told Geir that the other day - He was like "Dave who?". Geir's from Norway! :)
I agree what the fellas said - Fantastic track!
This grooves out, and the vox exude a nice vibe similar to Poe or Lori Carson. I think so, anyway. Cool song.

I was chilled to the bone - Awesome!
Intense, driving beat - Great vox!
Very moody, mellow tune - Sounds great!
I dug this to the point where I might be in China by now!! Great harp and slide.
Far out! Great track!
Cool!!!
I want a glass of that!!
