One of a few tracks where I made use of a toy plastic guitar neck that emits a laser which you "strum" to play chords... So in all seriousness, I can say that I played air guitar on this album.

I was sorta trying to write a Mclusky song here - I wasn't exactly successful, but it was fun to try. All of the lyrics are sentences from the 37th page of different books I had lying around: See if you recognize anything from your favorite novel…

A harmonica improv, slowed down, played backwards and multi-tracked - I was thinking of something like My Bloody Valentine's "Touched". This and the next three song titles are all anagrams for the same phrase, but I'm going to be mysterious and…

While adding effects to a song, I accidentally put distortion on a leftover silent recording. I kind of liked the hum that resulted and made the rhythm track out of that.

A couple of the stranger sections of this song resulted from accidentally pasting multiple parts to the wrong tracks (and thus giving them entirely different effects than intended). I often try to embrace "mistakes" as just weird new directions…

I came up with "Robot Pizza Militia" because I just wanted a title with the initials RPM, but oddly it did end up fitting the song.

I always like making these short little mood pieces. The instrumentation consisted of a beer bottle and a little bit of good ol' Powersockey, the cheap battery operated keyboard.

The backing track is mainly the "Chanticleer Hegemony" beat in reverse at a slower tempo and pitch-shifted samples of my earlier track "Harm". The lyrics are taken verbatim from a note that once landed in my driveway one windy day. The ending…

The mission is to go to the moon. How?
Second song written for RPM12, had hoped to have more of the question and answer lyrics that you hear in part three on the album, but...

The moon is silent and has no interest in what happens on earth. Timeless.
This was the first thing I wrote for RPM12. Really struggled with it.

Walking through fields in winter
