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.

I have never written a song about the RPM Challenge itself, until now. Have we really been here for 15 years? It needed to be fun, it needed to be a great dance number. I had the gtr riff, and realized it would be even better as a horn line. The…

A total gtr inspired tune. The riff came first and I knew it needed thunderous drums. The rest fell into place. I envisioned this one being very Top of The Pops on a Saturday in 1971, or Granada TV in summer of' 70, depending on your point of…

The word agony and the basic melody for the first line came first. I sat on it for a while, then one evening tried to figure out the chords for it. The verse chords followed very quickly, effectively falling out of the gtr after I had discovered…

This one started as the piano piece. I was messing around and thought it had a vaguely Eddie Harris sounding vibe from Plug Me In (which is a killer record, absolutely killer). Anyway, I decided to develop it, since it sounds a little different…

This one started as the verse chords and some rambling vox melody. My demo of just gtr and me mumbling resulted in something vaguely Lennon-esque in delivery, so I kept that aspect and took it further for the mid section. The harmonies in the…

This one came solely as the chorus melody and the basic hook "So I'll sing my song for Carolina" It's all I had for months, but I thought it was a good chorus line so I kept humming it to see if it would sprout further ideas. The mid section is…

The chorus riff came first, then the verses' lyrics. Then the structure. It sounds like 1981 to me, so I just ran with it.

This one came to me as I was sleeping on a plane, delayed on a tarmac. I dreamt that McCartney was singing this, sort of. I came out of the dream abruptly when the pilot said we were finally cleared to take off. I racked my brain to figure out…

I have had this riff for a while. It needed a song. It needed cowbell. It got both, and it's a great song to drive to.

The closing number, the thoughtful number. It says more than goodbye.

Are you trapped in an endless emotional-steamroller of black-hole phases and need that extra second to glorify a unified reason to escape the soundscapes of darkness?
