There is a lot that I like about this one. There is one thing that annoys the shit out of me. On about half of this year's songs I tried to write the melody ahead of writing the lyrics. I noodled a piano melody and recorded it, then wrote…

Very quick to write and record. Basically done from start to finish in about an hour and a half (I look at the clock). Despite it's brevity, there's quite a lot going on (especially in how exact I've tried to be with the harmonies, and double…

Written/Recorded for RPM2017 (album in a month). The second song I wrote for RPM this year, as a picked acoustic guitar piece. It reminded me of an English Folk/children's song thing (a bit like the theme to Trumpton - the kid's telly series…

Written/Recorded for RPM2017 (album in a month). This one had a backing track written on Piano, and sounded somewhat 'Elton John', before the lyric and vocal melody joined the party. The stripping out of the piano at the start has made this…

Written/Recorded for RPM2017 (album in a month). An instrumental, and quite a bit different to much of more RPM output. This stylistically is an area I sometimes work in when making music for media. The reference points when listening should…

Written/Recorded for RPM2017 (album in a month). I won't pretend this isn't a weird one. The rhythms right with one another, the harmony is unsettling, and towards the end it points towards the next song on the album, in a quite electronic…

Written/Recorded for RPM2017 (album in a month). A bit of a weird song, written on guitar (and it shows). A slightly unsettling chord movement which fights the prettiness at points, I think. The backwards guitar and wailing at the end was…

Written/recorded for RPM2017 (album in a month). This one was written on Ukulele, (well that opening section was), and built upon that. The tongue in cheek lyric, is somewhat inspired by a friend who has recently become single, and isn't all…

Written for the RPM2017 (album in a month) challenge. The 70s vibe should be obvious, and this was written on electric piano, (unusually for me). The opening keys riff is one of the only moderately funky sounding things I can play. I am not…

Written/recorded for RPM2017 (album in a month). The last song I wrote for RPM2017 (being entirely written and recorded on 26th and 28th Feb). It should be obvious that this is a tribute to George Harrison - I'd listened to the album "Brainwashed…

The first song I wrote for RPM2017, and the first one on this 'album'. It was witten on Ukulele with two whole chords (Chord one is a barre at the second fret, and chord two is all of the strings open). Whilst not the most musically sophisticated…

Veteran RnB star and Independent Entertainment frontline artiste, Faze, comes through with an amazing effort-of-a-song titled “Perfect Woman“. “This song talks about loving a woman despite her weaknesses” – Faze. Enjoy!

This is an early favorite for the "stand out track" title. I like the groove quite a bit. Although I was literally falling asleep while mixing it so who knows if it sounds okay or not. I am in love with my new little Fender Bassbreaker 15…

At least in the past when they told us outright lies they were lies that could possibly have been true. Now? They just make shit up off the top of their head and half the people believe it like gospel. Guitars are a Les Paul through a Fender…

Thanks to William Ramsey for providing this track. I added guitar and lap steel guitar.
