the air is sweet and clear
the clouds are dots against the sky
the evergreens behind us				
and now it's just you and I			
another sip of water…

I just assumed that you				
would hold your head above the water		
never doubted through this all			
that you would be the last alive			
and it's true…

I follow this dream	
chasing it
I need this to breathe
suffocating
we can't let it go
driving ahead
we just want to know
everything
follow this dream…

adventures waiting there for me

she's on the go, she's got not time	
she will leave you all behind
she's in the know, changes her mind
she does shit like this all of the time
where did she go		
somewhere far away
where did she go
it changes every day…

          Listening back to this one, I was struck by a trio of mental images.
The first was a memory from a flight back from some business trip. The clouds and the angle of the sunlight formed what looked like a blasted landscape over which towered…

          The music is canned chords and patterns I pulled from EZKeys, then filtered through a plugin (Wires by AudioThing).
The story comes from a silly cartoon a buddy posted on social media, followed by my addition about saltines. The last line is…

          At the beginning of February, I tried to learn to use VCV Rack, but never really took the time to learn properly. Instead, I took the couple of patches I managed to create, slowed them down, mashed them up with drums and canned percussion from…

          When I used to work third shift at Kinko's, I'd sometimes leave the weather radio on, and the automated voice and cadence (though different now from the one 20+ years ago) still has a comforting tinge of nostalgia. I have a weather radio on my…

          As usual, the track titles have nothing to do with the actual music/sounds - I usually just pick something that fits with whatever theme/concept is in my head when it's time to get the cover art together. (This time around, it's power grid failures…

          Final track form RPM 2021 which was all about clothes, for me. I want to help people be themselves but my skills do not lie in the physical realm, merely the digital. We can play Animal Crossing together though.

          Fourth song from RPM 2021 is about when I realised that clothes are important and that whilst "expressing yourself" is a bit of a naff phrase it's actually quite important for your wellbeing.

          Third track from my RPM 2021 which is all about clothes. This is about the attitudes presented to young boys when growing up - it's a song about my own experience and what I learned in the playground.
