August 6 - Well this is a tome and rather wordy compared to most of my lyrics. I do so much in verse/chorus form, wanted to try something different, so this is in AABA form. Had the musical idea for the A section and then as I've had the current…

August 4 - Week 4 challenge: Fire. My mind went to several fiery relationships that I've experienced in my lifetime. And out here on the prairie late summer wildfires are a normal thing. VERSE: Driving down that highway Smell the smoke in…

July 31 - Started out as "Invisible Things" (from the Poe quote "invisible things are the only reality" - maybe that's another song), turned into "Invisible Words" which I know a lot about as an introvert. I often prefer to stay silent, but there…

July 28 - My lifelong struggle with resistance to completing creative work has me where I am today, finally overcoming. I had this track with another set of lyrics that just didn't fit, then another, and then this came. I think it works better…

Another protest song, the state of our country and world has been on my mind. VERSE: Smoke and confusion Marching on our soil Leaders telling lies Darkness in the cities Militia on the ground They wear the worst disguise CHORUS…

VERSE: The whites of your eyes Filled with red again Your mind is telling lies Says this is the end The pain is always there Lost in endless time You know this was never fair Tell everyone you're just fine CHORUS: Zombify It will…

July 17 - Her chair is in my studio, as well as one of her old suitcases that I use as a table. She was so dear to me. The verses would need to be re-worked, and it's kinda long. VERSE: It sits there in the corner The fabric's pretty worn…

July 15 - Random collab. Laurie sent me a lyric and I sent her a basic idea that wasn't really working that well. She wrote a quick new lyric and it inspired me a lot to revise/revamp my original idea and this is the result. A fun collab and I…

July 12 - Skirmish. Prompt: Such a thirst. Decided to take that as my first line and go from there, ending up being about the desire to return to normalcy. VERSE: Such a thirst I'm yearning for some normalcy It’s not coming Have we been…

July 11 - The Skirmish writing prompt is from titular...use whatever inspires you all words or just a title?: "___stubborn routine of the ohio banks, nails, losers robinson : twinkle waterfall five (orpheus) thought nocturnal___" I just…

July 11 - Skirmish. A mix of autobiographical and made-up stuff to the prompt "Too Straight" VERSE: My mama told me Make sure to get an education Something to fall back on But I didn't listen So life's been a bumpy road Many paths I…

July 11 - Skirmish. The prompt was - make your own prompt from any of the letters in “thermodynamic.” My first thought was to bale as it seemed to hard. Decided to have a little fun with it and be silly. Didn’t exactly create a prompt, but my…

July 10 - Another skirmish, messed up the end of the demo but I just gotta let it go for now! VERSE: It started out as a drizzle Dotting the winding dusty road For many hope began to fizzle And the dark clouds began to overload Many…

July 10 - Skirmish. Refers to you know who. Lyric: He's a petulant little child Ranting, raving mad Apoplectic in the extreme To me he looks rather sad His Twitter feed on fire With vengeful, spiteful hate An exasperated urchin…

July 10 - Skirmish. Got this in right on the hour, had the lyric and basic melody in 30 minutes. Takes me the rest of the time to get a decent take. Fun but nerve-wracking at the end! VERSE: The smoke slowly rises The prairie wakes at dawn…

synthesizers and effects “It is a peculiar colony” says István Maák, a zoologist at the Polish Academy of Sciences in Warsaw. “They are doing the best they can, surrounded by dying.” In 2019, Maák took it upon himself to do something about…

July 10 - one-hour skirmish. We wanted to take a trip this summer but it ain't happenin'. Lyrics: VERSE: Stuck here at home With the world on lockdown Doing my work online There must be better ways to spend my time When out gotta…

July 8 - Used the following songwriting prompt: write a song in the form of a step-by-step process, and use the progression Bm, F#m, G, Em. This was hard at first, and then I came up with something from my own past that I thought might work…

July 6 - Used a prompt from another writing challege - the 5 in 5 Song Challenge, July 2020. I used 5 of the suggested words: Forgive, Wooden, Coast, Hands, Looking Lyric: VERSE: The wooden figure in the corner quietly Like an old friend…

July 5 - First skirmish challenge in a long time, 2 hrs just barely enough time to do a basic demo, fun day! Lyric based on trips we took when the kids were young down to the beach in Destin, Florida. Lyric: VERSE: We used to drive down…

July 5 - This is actually my first 50/90 song this year, just now got around to doing a quick demo. Used the "Titular" tool on the Fawm Muse page, grabbed the title and ran with it. I immediately thought of the plethora of false information harmfully…

Generally speaking I like this one, but there are some catches. 1. The vocals for this song, along with two others, were recorded on a day when I just didn't have it. I couldn't hit a pitch if you painted a big target on it. 2. I recorded…

This is more of a description than a song. It's my contribution to the Minnesota Homebrew Radio Show monthly song writing challenge: "Write a song about your first car."

Dedicated to the capital of the earth kingdom

WHEN WE GET TO COLORADO Capo @ 5 in C positions C G Thirty one years in this city Thirty one yers on this street Fighting in the morning Fighting at night This place has the smell of defeat…

SKINNY GIRLS Capo @ 3 in G ...and then he said, I like skinny girls Toothy girls Flat chested girls I like girls with Adam's apples A mouth full of titty And a hand full of ass... A girl with a six pack is my kind of... And then…

I almost like this one. I was into it while I was putting it together (percussion overload, babie!) and playing the rhythm guitar parts was kinda fun. I had a really hard time with the vocals. I just couldn't find the pitches anywhere. Singing…

Here's another original song that I wrote this year! I may have gone a little insane with the layering in this one... but I kinda like it so I won't apologise for it lol Lyrics: You can take your time, I'll wait for you Suppose that's all…

Track from my album "Biomechanoid"

*Talented sensational act popularly know as *HORLAYIN* he was born from A. S. A L. G. A KWARA STATE has released his prayer song title " *BLESSING*" this magic piece was produced by *EM6**

Rise 49 and two instances of Martina Labs Aalto with effects in harmonic series tuning.

Trying to get the hang of using hardware synths.

Two different contact mic recordings; one on a high-tension electricity pylon, the other on a metal bridge frame. Both were processed with the same noise reduction sample, silences removed, then stretched to double length. Submitted to Sound-In…

I was trying out the new guitar a Harley Benton 12String just like Tims (Greeny's) an its a beauty it sounds great and for just over £200 a bargin to boot. Heres a bit of blues the Harley benton and a fender strat and a wha peddle I travelled…

Skyfall aviation on demand part 4

I don't like the chorus in this one at all. Everything else is okay but the chorus... let's just file it under "it seemed like a good idea at the time" and forget all about it. Guitars are all Gibson ES-335 Pro. Amps on all guitar tracks…

This was just a twisted and warped little extra I threw on to "The Dark Side of the Moo." Another remix because the original was not the greatest. Some people will sit down at a piano and duet on "Heart and Soul." In our high school and college…

Inspired by a drum track from Emily Dolan Davies I tried to produce a cinematic sounding track.

this is a song I wrote for my girlfriend she loves the song too she was about today and heard me developing the song 000 I had never done a new musical instrument on thumbjam till today- included in this is the new instrument "I love you"

I don't hate it outright... but I don't really like it either. The chorus is okay, the groove is okay... maybe I just need to re-record it and play better. Maybe just tone down the grunge a little. I don't know. It's not a complete loss, but…

always liked this song, hats off to Radiohead Cheers!

Pink noise setting on Mini-Moog that seems to be malfunctioning slightly (sweeping sounds shouldn't happen). Effected by running it through noise reduction, the profile of which was taken from sounds of a tenor saxophone. Right channel is a reverse…
