Where's all this sappy music coming from? The Olympics were on. I must have been watching too much figure skating or something.
Unmastered track from my 2010 RPM Challenge submission.

Noodling around on my guitar one day, I started thinking about the role of my mother in my musical life. To the family, she brought music. She tried the piano lessons, didn't work. But she didn't give up. When school presented the opportunity…

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…

one of those 'it was written even before i started' songs that just rolls out like magic
i tried to keep it simple so as not to destroy the vibe
first finished (if unmixed) track for RPM 2010
This started as a simple piano piece from Osckilo, I took that as a beginning point and added the rest (synth, guitar, drums from Boss microBR), turning it into a prog-rock instrumental.

I wanted to play more directly with noise of various kinds so this piece focuses less on techniques and fancy plugins and more on selection & arrangement of sounds.
I spent many hours going through Reaktor ensembles I've downloaded searching…
Happy Valentine's Day Everyone.
I think this song has grown on me in the last few
days. I'm diggin' it. I hope you all do too. I
wanted to hurry up and get the demo out for
Valentine's Day. Finished at 3:05am. Wha whoooo!
I need to…
Another collaboration between me and guitarist Kerry Hoke. Kerry provided me with four guitar loops. I arranged the loops, added some effects, played a sampled upright bass, programmed some drums, and blended it all together.
My first upload for the 2010 RPM Challenge! I wanted to make a mean-sounding, minimal, instrumental groove track, and this is what I came up with. I tried a bunch of different bass lines, but they all made it sound too busy.

Comments on mmi's stuff
oooh, this is very nice. Are you using the Reichatron on this track by any chance?
:)
Well, warm comfort for me with music like this to listen to
Nice ambient track! I like the peeping of the robotic chicks, begging to be fed their regular meals of internet worms. :D
Dark and ambient for sure. Is that an ebow I hear back there?
Time. Indeed. But this is my favourite of your RPM tracks thus far! Very lovely.
Dark, for sure M. Is that your guitar I hear in there?? Awesome sound man.
This is great! Well done! Watch more tv!
Beautiful!
Sounds real sweet here. I wouldn't touch a thing. Plus, I think I could skate to it.
This is lovely! Extremely emotive tune. I agree with Kirk about the ebow solo.
Thanks for sharing your feeling . Is a beautiful playing .
Beautiful! Love that ebow part at the end.
Great tune.
I like it.
The subtlety of this track is quite compelling. The synthy swells are, well, swell! :)
Wonderful track! A couple of very minor rough spots, but the tune comes across quite well.
I really liked this one!
wow I have to say I feel refreshed after listening to this.
oh sweet! The drums coming in is awesome!

Really digging this.
Just too good.
That's an awesome sound! Raised the bar for sure.
My heart melts.
Definitely like this direction.
Inspiring for sure.
Magic indeed. Awesome.
Bravo!
Hot anthemic goodness.
Progtronica! Yes!
Ever impressive.
Well done. Very retro cool.
Fun stuff. Love the banjo.
Awesome groove. Builds a little like that the theme tune from a Guy Ritchie film.
Crunchy!
Awesome; all you need now is a Barry White stand-in :-)
Groovus interruptus!
loving the dark groove
Really nice flow you've developed across your RPM tracks. Coming along very very nicely.
Holy crap. What a build. Beautiful and inspiring (makes me really glad that I've started playing guitar myself).
