One of a few pieces composed on a battery operated toy keyboard that I nicknamed the Powersockey, due to the fact that the power socket was labeled that.
Uploaded
One of a few songs on the album where the percussion is a loop of myself hitting my computer desk with my hands. I think I got a nice hypnotic vibe going with this one.

Kind of a mashup of "Cthulhu Carnival" and "Sasquatch Horror Collection".
Uploaded
For whatever reason this album ended up having a lot of songs that could be low-budget horror movie themes.
Uploaded
Creepy carnival music. I was trying to remember the name of b-movie Cthulhu Mansion, and because part of it takes place at a fair, Cthulhu Carnival was my first guess somehow. I thought that sounded like a pretty fitting song title anyway.
Uploaded
A pretty little ambient loop I might go back and expand into something else someday.

You've been trying to beat a really hard NES game for months on end. You finally beat that last boss and you get treated to... a comically anticlimactic 8 note fanfare and a short congratulation in broken English.
Uploaded
Like "Neon Orange Dinosaur" this is a track that I think would make a pretty good hip-hop beat.
Uploaded
I guess you could call this my attempt at dark ambient. I once misread a sign in a bookstore that read "Read Away The Winter" as "Dead Avalanche Winter", and I filed that away mentally until I had a fitting song for it.
Uploaded
If you've ever played the pretty good but questionably translated X-Men arcade game, you should recognize this title.
Uploaded
This is supposed to be sort of annoying, I swear.
Uploaded
I personally wasn't that happy with how this turned out, but to me when it comes to RPM albums there should be no such thing as outtakes.
Uploaded
This song is mainly toy accordion, so I couldn't resist the pun.
Uploaded
The good ol' battery operated keyboard again, this time with some whistling.
Uploaded
The instrumentation includes a hunting trumpet and an electric toothbrush, hence the title.
Uploaded
More ambient music based around my cheap battery operated keyboard. I was trying for the sort of song that might turn up in an enchanted forest in an 8-bit RPG.
Uploaded
I was thinking about unlikely superpowers one day for some reason, and just came up with this weird little story that I then decided to set to music. One Kilometer Per Year was almost this album's title.
Uploaded
The bell-like instrument that starts this off is actually a steel pan being pitch-shifted to different notes.
Uploaded
All sounds on this were originally played on a cheap battery operated keyboard.

The chorus is adapted from "O Death Rock Me Asleep", by Anne Boleyn, while imprisoned in the Tower of London, waiting for her execution.

I was pretty much trying to be The Field with this one.
Uploaded
This just stemmed from deliberately trying to make a drum loop as distorted and ugly-sounding as possible. Violik from The Tapeworm Collective contributed the dubby bass and some strange noises.
Uploaded
Composed in digital performer for a course in computer music. Some of the presets reminded me of Kraftwerk, so I thought I'd attempt something in that style. "The doom house" was my sister's nickname for her place of residence at the time.

I originally was going to rap over this, but I decided it would be better to not subject anyone to that. If anyone here wants to use it as a beat they're welcome to though. Named in tribute to the orange t-rex in front of a mini-golf course on…

Originally conceived as a contribution to remix fight, but I missed the deadline and it ultimately didn't use much of the source material anyway. Disclaimer: Quetzalcoatlus does not condone drug use.
Uploaded
Originally written for songfight - it got no votes and decidedly mixed reception on their forums, but I really ought to try my hand there again sometime.
Uploaded
I kind of wish I still had the individual tracks for this so I could mix it better, but I still think it's an interesting mix of sounds.
Uploaded
There's no reason for this to be named after the infamous section of craigslist, beyond the song itself sounding sort of sleazy I guess. The ending isn't meant as political commentary, it's just a funny moment I happened to capture.
Uploaded
The lyrics are loosely based on one of the strangest events I've witnessed while on public transportation (hey, maybe this is a concept album about commuting after all). The story is in fact pretty accurate until the end - despite the guy's sweet…

Based around an anonymous little kid's unique rendition of "Old MacDonald Had A Farm". Tom Meade contributed a recorder loop here.

The coda of this was recorded on my mp3 player while waiting for a train. At some point I had this idea that there would be ambient noise recorded from train or bus stations every few songs so it'd sort of feel like you were listening to the whole…
Uploaded
I might go back and do an expanded version of this someday. Despite the title, I think it works nicely as an ambient piece.

Somewhat of an older track of mine, and maybe the first thing I did where I really thought I was onto something good.
