Two red lines, these days, means a positive Covid test. I don’t know if we can create this again, and, if not, this will probably go on rpm challenge. Fun to make. Turning the sustain slider into the mod knob was a genius patch idea.

Song 3 of RPM 2022. For the many tortured artists I've met with a bit of a dance spin to it. Most of my songs are unintentional and unplanned....they just happen. Thanks to anyone who's listening!! :)

Another little ditty. A bit different, just me and my Guitar ( tuned to Open D ) and recorded on my i-Pad ( Garageband ) very few tweaks.

I know there something out there
But i really don’t know…

Song 2 for the RPM Challenge. Wrote this at the piano and then had fun trying all sorts of spontaneous vocal harmonies. Switching time signatures for the chorus made for some challenging recording!

V1 Empires come and empires go
Whether thay are big or small

They all burn and fall

Spouting different a different view
telling you they are right
And the others are not true…

Sunshine fill my soul

Just a change of pace.
Something different that my mind could engage.
A shallow fragment of longing
For something different to feel
The novelty of the change it’s own appeal…
