This is a bonustrack. It's a leftover from my failed RPM 2019 when my laptop started breaking down halfway through February. I lost all the multitracks but could save some mp3-mixdowns.

Fixed a timing mistake and other mix changes
I changed the title of this track. Because I couldn't get lyrics and vocal done in time I added the vocal melody I had in mind but in a comically dramatic sounding sound from the…

The vocals on this are quite bad. I'll try to redo them at some point and maybe sharpen up the lyrics a bit as well.

I uploaded a version with marginally less awful vocals and some minor lyrics-changes
No new normal…

The Dutch painter Mondrian was apparantly a fervent dancer to Boogie Woogie and that image stuck because he seems such a stiff guy otherwise. So I thought that would make a funny subject for a dance-tune. Normally I wouldn't make a song about…

Another one without lyrics. The title was my workingtitle. And I just thought it was a funny title (I think Rage Against the Machine is kind of silly) I quite like some of the sounds on this one (it's a Poly 800 through an Electro Harmonix Big…

1. Vanilla sex and garlic eyes
I tried this method http://www.songmd.com/col_hitlyrics.shtml to get out of my continuing lyricwriting-crisis. At step two of the method you have to write a nonsensical lyric on you melody. In the case of the first…

My Clique-contribution with some added ambientsound recorded from my window. This is partly the traditional filler-track but I quite like the ambientsound. If I do a record next year (I probably won't) it will most likely be just 35 minutes of…

5. The lost generation
As if the last one wasn't miserable enough. This lyric is about "the lost generation"; the generation that came right after the babyboom-generation and was more or less written of by the babyboomers in the eighties when…

This is supposed to be the opening track. I'm not sure yet if it will be an instrumental or if I have to add lyrics and vocal. What do you think? Let me know.

I think it works as an instrumental but takes too long to get going. If you were to do it as a vocal song, do you have lyrics ready to go for it? I imagine it would lend itself well to vocals. Nice track. Love the bass line.

Fun track – energetic and feels like there’s a lot going on (which suits your track’s title!).
I had programmed a drumtrack based on Can's Vitamin C at the end of january in preparation for RPM. Last week I read that the drummer Jaki Liebzeit died the 22th of january. The other idea was to stay on one chord for a long time and use reverb…

Great groove to this one. Really hypnotic. Took me 'til about 2 minute mark before I was like, 'wait! damn, this is good!'
Midlife crisis? I'm not going to reflect too much on these lyrics. It might be interesting to myself to hear again 5 or 10 years from now. I used a guitarnoise with a EH Graphic Fuzz and Hardwire RV-7 with a reverse reverb (I used this too in…

Monopoli is the still quite virtual label for anything that gets recorded by Erik Verkoyen. These are mostly RPM records (http://www.rpmchallenge.com/) and instrumental tunes for special projects.
