it seems this is a year for trying new stuff(for me anyway) so here is a sort of jazy breaks thingy (jaz with one z cos its not quite jazz)

I guess this would be the "centerpiece" of the album. Like the rest of the album it really stumbles along the line between droney and simply repetitive, and it needs a bit of a reworking to reach its potential.

Hi folks,
It's good to back after RPM and the blackout of 2010.
A couple firsts here. I recorded this 100% with the computer. I never plugged in to a computer before.
I've always used a Roland VS machine and burnt my

Another sweet love song. I've been into love songs lately... I think it's cuz I got a new lady friend. nyehe. =3

sorry about me being such a delay on uploads, i'm getting slower and slower because of lack of ideas and samples. I probably have like 3 or four songs that all use the same exact piano sampling...
Anyways, another love song type thing. Enjoy

I keep writing songs about communism, for some reason. I thought it was slightly amusing to discover that Mashino actually IS an industrial town. Sounds like "Machine". Get it? Get it??

I wrote it for a friend of a friend. It was originally about a woman, but although I liked the music a lot, the words didn't quite satisfy me. On a whim, I changed a pronoun here and there, and the song became a story.

I was thinking about Haiti...
i don't know what to say
i don't know how to feel

Another free jam, stream of consciousness type thang

One of only two tracks on the album where loops were used more than instruments, or at least as much.

In the moment
So alive
Taunting death
Every color sings
Every smell
Breathe deep
Open wide
All is new
Sounds inspire
Electric space
Shed the skin
Of the old
All is new
All is new
Take my hand
Run so fast
We’re alive
Taunting death

I hear you
Calling my name
Like a whisper
And a scream
You haunt me
Forever
Twist your arms
Around my neck
In a dead embrace
Locked with love
You haunt me
You haunt me
I tore the paper
From the walls
To see what
Was underneath
You left no…

It enters us
Without us knowing
Not welcome
Uninvited

Go away
Leave me alone

You’re taking me down
Breaking me down again
Circling around
Spinning toward the bottom
It’s a place we know
Where we always go
We can’t get lost
We know the way
Do we crave the dark
Long for misery
Embrace the end
To only rise again

this was my last rpm song...i had a little mandolin riff and threw on the kazoo (which broke in the last verse), and it reminded me a happy bee buzzing around...and there you have it!

Another angry song. My boss once handed me a spreadsheet about cost prices from vendors and said "I don't like the way this looks". I wondered if the upper management looked at salary costs the same way, and that led to this song.

"Jenny Blue" was originally supposed to be the album closer, but this track seemed like a nice outro.

The most challenging track to record during the RPM Challenge this year. I like how a lot of it turned out, but there were so many clashing pieces, that I was pulling my hair out trying to assemble it.

At the 23rd hour we consider whether we've made the right decisions.

Is this our 23rd hour
Sixty minutes to go
Are we counting the seconds…

A nasty little story wrapped in a very short country song.
When I took your tiny hand it struck me cold
And I though cool hands warm hands warm heart is what I've been
But I know that wasn't
When It came to one like you
So I signed that…

What a shame - what a shame

From RPM 2010. It's entirely analog synthesizer, drum machine, and my voice. Effects, too, of course. It's pretty repetitive, but I find it kinda catchy.
