Song #6 for the 2022 RPM Challenge.

RPM Challenge song number seven.
Chug chug chug chug... was I trying to make a metal album? There are a couple of songs that sound like an old person trying to remember what metal songs feel like. Oh well.
Not much to say about this one…

Demo of track I’ve been working with on with Luis of Voltage Agony/Soil To Ash. Going to add a few more elements and make it a tighter mix then it’ll be a keeper for the next release.

Two EHX devices; Voice Box, and Stereo Memory Man. Original sound is voice only, with a loop created on the SMM and extra vocalisations on top. Submitted to Sound-In "Peace" for 24/2-3/3/2022.

Based on a riff brought back to life after many years, and remembrance of a childhood fever dream. Wrap this in the context of the past two years and this is the musical result.

Sometimes life knocks you down and decides to kick a few times for good measure. It can be hard to push though at times, but it’s important to persevere because it can and will get better. This is a song about staying strong and remaining hopeful…

2022 RPM Challenge, song number eight out of (hopefully) 20.

Probably my favourite of the tracks I made for my RPM 2022 album simply because it seemed to come together quite quickly and easily. I love the warmth of the bass and how it constrasts with the sharpness of the horns and trumpets. Vocal courtesy…

Probably my second favourite track I made for my RPM album. Features the vocal hits of the wonderful Miss Jocelyn Brown courtesy of the Delicious Allstars Funk Constructor.

A track that definitely has elements of funkiness, but is also heavily influenced by disco and house. Features ejay vocals.

2022 RPM Challenge Song Number 12.

Well, my entry for RPM 2022 went from LP to (a very short) 4 song EP but this track I think has bags of potential. It was a discarded idea from a few years ago that was lurking in my 'half-baked' Logic folder but something in it ignited my creative…

For the first time in 13 years Grant sent me some lyrics. I added a verse and then spent the month of February waiting for the song to give me a direction. It did on about the 24th. Originally this was sunny and upbeat.

Grant and I became obsessed with maj7 chords and that led to a lot of jazzy sounds. The title came before there were words and it seems about right.
