I so want this to be the single... I don't care it is six and half minutes... It is like a showcase for every player in your band. And your bass player is getting tight and more intricate which I absolutely adore!
I wish someone told me that we were doing 90's Depeche Mode style dance songs this year... I would have joined in. You and Jarrett crushed it this year with the moody dance vibe.
Has almost a "Night Begins to Shine" vibe. Which means my kids also love it.
Written for the April 2020 RPM mini-challenge. I hoped for an EP and ended up with a single song. The song is largely recorded on a T25 mic I built for Brian of A Beautiful Scene as a means to test the mic. It's pretty solid if you ask me…
This song is great, I didn't understand it at first but after a listen through some of your songs and reading a couple of forums on RPM this is one of the most fantastic things I have heard.
One thing I like about covers is turning a song on its head, so that's what I did with this tune from the great ABS album "The Far Side Of Paradise". I hope I made Lane proud.
Brian of A Beautiful Scene wrote an amazing tune for the 2020 A Beautiful Scene RPM record and I couldn't get it out of my head. I hope I did it justice.

This song perfectly encapsulates the feeling towards writing music, especially for RPM. Even with it's light humour, it still has a weight to it that commands an emotional response for all of those who have written a catalogues worth of songs. Well done Tim!

The cover I did off Uglifruit's 2010 RPM submission. The drums are a pair of hotrod sticks, that I made, hitting my keyboard table. The "kick drum is the stick hitting the pop screen while the mic was on.
I still need to fade...
Inspired by the book Musicophilia by Oliver Sacks. An earworm (or brainworm as Sacks espouses) is that catchy melody that sticks in your brain that you just can't shake.
This is a cover of a song by Sister Savage, from her kickin' 2010 RPM Challenge album, Juped 2k10. It also introduces the genre of acoustic crossdressed spacecheese (these damn kids today with their flying cars and their hyperspecialized genres…
Sitting around in my shop a couple of days ago with the Goodall and the Zoom H4N. First time I've really messed with using the internal mics on the H4N in multitrack mode

This sounds like a Keith Landry Cover. Oh, hey there he is!

Love that bridge, so glad you kept those guitars! Love the chatter in the end, I love this song too.
The bass line rocks! Love your mixes, everything is so clear and every part has its place!
Love the guitars!
Right on!
Nice! This rocks!
This is such a great song, Tim.
Awesome outro.
Always such great stuff Tim!!!!
this is very very nice.
Yup. This is my favorite so far - but you likely knew I'd like this one best when you recorded it.

Horray! I didn't realise you'd uploaded this corking album, obviously love this track. Pepsi and I were singing it for weeks. :)
Lane says "meh" But I bet my Mom likes it better than my track, so you get points there.
Love the new mix! Nailed those "slidey" guitar parts!

Wonderfully done Tim!
You have a great voice.

Haunting. Beautiful.
Impressive. I like what you did with the drum work and the guitar is really pretty.
This is about 24 kinds of cool. Well done.
Wow. Just wow. This just draws me in and mesmerizes me.
Oh yeah! Great bit of moodiness and I really dig the instrumental breaks.
Nice job. I really like the guitar work.
Absolutely wonderful job, Keith. Your version is better than mine. And thanks for adding the much-need bridge lyrics!
The first 17 seconds of this song is everything I want to do when I make music.
Stunning. Just absolutely beautiful. Wonderful work, Richard.
OH MY! This is SO MUCH FUN! You took a great song and put a tremendous spin on it. Well done!
Absolutely lovely. Wonderful guitar work.
I'm really digging the "bop bop bop". All great pop songs should have hand claps and "bop bop bop"!
