My last rpm song - based on the police log in a local paper. The writer must have been feeling poetic - more than half of these are word for word and the rest were slightly changed to fit the rhyming scheme.

Messing around with a Korg. Part of my outer-space theme - the Apollo program ended with Apollo 17...imagine if they had 51 missions! Also, a subtle link to Area 51.

We were running out of time during the RPM Challenge 2012, so Tess applied a shedload of effects to Matt's piano motif from "Breaking Arrows".

A rubbish track by Tess got the Sandbags treatment here - the results only hold shades of the original. And it's just as well.

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.
