I needed to keep the streak alive. 15 years of RPM. But life has been in the way. Considerably. It's not worth getting into, but music is currently so far down the priority list it's not even funny. But I found time on the 28th to…

This is brilliant. Meta, but brilliant, nevertheless. Great, clean sound too. A simple arrangement of acoustic guitar and vocal can work so well.

Well, now. This is OUTSTANDING. It seems like this was the year for "get one song done to keep the streak alive." A damn good little track. Yeah. Fifteen years. Pretty amazing, my friend.

It's October and that means time for ghost stories. This one came out of a couple of songs posted last month in Hungarian Minor. I found that to be a spooky scale, so I built on it for a couple of songs this month.

I've been obsessed with this song since I watched a Rick Beato video that called out how the awesome guitar solo was criminally buried in the mix. Plus, it's yacht rock, and if there's one thing I love, it's yacht rock. So I set out to record…

You wouldn't know if from my uploads over the last few months, but I rarely record covers, mostly because you hear what's WRONG, not what's RIGHT. But I had a theme of Earth, Wind, & Fire for September, so I decided to take on a huge song…

You came for the Earth. You stayed for the Wind. That gets you the Fire. Tim - a voice Andy - a guitar Jarrett - A lotta voices, a lotta drums, and a fine, fine, FINE imitation of Michael McDonald.

This is a vibe... definitely has that 70's Yacht-Rock sound! Great bg vocals and guitar solo.

THIS... IS... AMAZING! Has that definite Letter Seventeen style but faithful to the original, right down to the nuances. The synthetic handclaps, the disco guitar in the chorus, great drumming from Jarrett... well done!

The August 2023 30 Day Songs prompt came from a list of ChatGPT country song names a friend posted to Facebook. I started off trying to make fun of the genre and instead wrote a song I think I sorta like. Rumor is there's a second mix floating…

The B-side for my July 30DaySongs submission is a cover of a tune I've loved since it came out way back in 1982. Wilsun has been having a rough go if it lately and I recorded this to hopefully cheer him up for a bit.

It's like a loungey version of a Synth-pop classic! Well done, and a very fun listen. Thanks for bring a smile on my face for a bit.

Sometimes a joke gets out of hand. This one is some combination of many many MANY inside jokes from the group on the RPMChallenge slack group, aka Conference of Mayors or Church of England, depending on the project. The shortest version is that…

Marz and I love Crowded House. We were feeling ambitious and took on one of our favorites for the June 30 Day Songs submission. Tim - guitars, voices, other noises Marz - vocals and lead guitar Jarrett Osborn - drums
