This is a cover of fellow RPMer Ienne Lynn's song "Holes" She easily is one of the best performance on RPM 2020 - with a raw sound and perfect lyrics that are so easy to relate to. This was recorded with the bare minimum of equipment. The…

Wrote this as a thank-you to someone who has been very kind to me, and who REALLY likes photography. Lyrics: Waking up on a dreary morn Eatin a big bowl of flakes of corn Read a text at 9 am 55 minutes or the chance will end R…

This song is for everyone who has failed at their Assertiveness Training. Lyrics: Sittin Spinnin Doin evrythin but winnin Startin to talk but instead I cough like an angel hell-bent on sinnin Moanin Groanin fightin with my demon…

I asked Olivia to name something (in three or four syllables) that causes her consternation. Her answer, "Society". Sometimes she follows my scratch vocal line when I record a demo for her, this time she just let it rip, and it is probably the…

This song features my first attempt at recording myself playing a drumkit. I only did four takes, sorry. Lyrics: They’re gonna say I stole this song And I knew it all along They own the copyright on C, G, C, G, D They’re gonna sue the…

This one is the only track that I am a little disappointed in. I thought it would be a banger and a lead-off track, but I had trouble getting it to exactly where I thought it would be. I think the problem is that I am nowhere near as good a singer…

There is actually a LOT of goose poop at my office park, but I opted to use the joke title referring to my favorite Beach Boys song. FWIW, the drum loops came from https://www.organicdrumloops.com/

I wrote this from the point of an old person, such as myself, but my vocals came out so bad that I had to get Olivia to sing it for me. Lyrics: Looking over a modern meme It's the worst that I've ever seen Everything looks a little strange…

A post on the Facebook RPM group featured a quote from an aging Dave Grohl complaining about Kids These Days and Their Terrible Music, pointing out that the current number-one song was about someone's butt. So, I wrote a song about my butt…

I wrote this song for my brother, who'd recently had surgery. Yes, I know it's long. I cut something close to three minutes out of it...FWIW it's supposed to butt right up against the next track "Oldie Bear" but you can't really do that in an…

Worked with a couple of college interns last year who'd never heard of any band I like. I felt like an asshole bragging about going to shows that happened 20 years before they were born. Lyrics: Oldie Bear was there at woodstock Dancin…

Something quite sad and Melancholy about this. Could be more tan just sad but that's all up to personal interpretation.

A remix of two pieces from Toronto artist James Bailey, processed and remixed with samples from Freesound.org featuring 'the Dude', Erokia, Harken and Hello_Flowers. Remix by me.

I wrote the backing track a couple years ago after watching the documentary “It Might Get Loud.” It somehow evolved into a li’l tribute to Bob Dylan (Bob really deserves so much better). The words allude to a number of Dylan’s songs: “Like a Rolling…

I've finally got the studio back together after the move into the new house and this is the first recording. John put together the backing track and i added my bit so here goes the first of many more to come i hope..... DRAIN THE SWAMP (Big…

The second song for my ridiculous post-RPM Challenge album in a month yet again thing. I was working on a guitar part for another song when I played the riff for this by accident. I dropped everything and made sure I had it recorded. I was…

My post-RPM Challenge plan is to just keep going. Here's my first March 2020 Challenge song. I am trying to go much more raw and low-fi than usual. One guitar straight into one amp. No doubling, not extensive overdubs. Same with the vocals…

From a series of pieces done a few days ago working with my latest Pure Data patch for interactive live performance. Baritone Uke and PD.

This is a live mix of 6 oscillations created in Pure Data. CDBAF#E according to my notes. Discovered this patch from making it about a year ago on a Linux machine. I opened up and created this live interaction.

Here I use my Ed O'Brien strat, EHX pitch fork, MXR superbass fuzz, red panda tensor (with m-audio expression pedal), TC Electronics Hall of Fame reverb 2 and strymon El Capistan echo into my Cakewalk DAW. (wireless via X Vive U2)

An angry little tune about the pres(id)ent situation. EOB strat>russian big muff pi>guitar disruptor>ibanez DE7 delay Isolation Quarantine But people all around The sickness of not caring No empathy to be found Bail out banks…

Same sounds as Thippy Burpday, but run through a shit-ton of effects.

Straight recording of a little sound-maker thingy a friend put together for my birthday that is controlled by a photocell so yeah, I'm gonna play around with it.
