The chorus is adapted from "O Death Rock Me Asleep", by Anne Boleyn, while imprisoned in the Tower of London, waiting for her execution.

All sounds on this were originally played on a cheap battery operated keyboard.
Uploaded
The bell-like instrument that starts this off is actually a steel pan being pitch-shifted to different notes.
Uploaded
I was thinking about unlikely superpowers one day for some reason, and just came up with this weird little story that I then decided to set to music. One Kilometer Per Year was almost this album's title.
Uploaded
More ambient music based around my cheap battery operated keyboard. I was trying for the sort of song that might turn up in an enchanted forest in an 8-bit RPG.
Uploaded
The instrumentation includes a hunting trumpet and an electric toothbrush, hence the title.
Uploaded
The good ol' battery operated keyboard again, this time with some whistling.
Uploaded
This song is mainly toy accordion, so I couldn't resist the pun.
Uploaded
I personally wasn't that happy with how this turned out, but to me when it comes to RPM albums there should be no such thing as outtakes.
Uploaded
This is supposed to be sort of annoying, I swear.
Uploaded
If you've ever played the pretty good but questionably translated X-Men arcade game, you should recognize this title.
Uploaded
I guess you could call this my attempt at dark ambient. I once misread a sign in a bookstore that read "Read Away The Winter" as "Dead Avalanche Winter", and I filed that away mentally until I had a fitting song for it.
Uploaded
Like "Neon Orange Dinosaur" this is a track that I think would make a pretty good hip-hop beat.
Uploaded
You've been trying to beat a really hard NES game for months on end. You finally beat that last boss and you get treated to... a comically anticlimactic 8 note fanfare and a short congratulation in broken English.
Uploaded
A pretty little ambient loop I might go back and expand into something else someday.
Uploaded
Creepy carnival music. I was trying to remember the name of b-movie Cthulhu Mansion, and because part of it takes place at a fair, Cthulhu Carnival was my first guess somehow. I thought that sounded like a pretty fitting song title anyway.
Uploaded
For whatever reason this album ended up having a lot of songs that could be low-budget horror movie themes.
Uploaded
Kind of a mashup of "Cthulhu Carnival" and "Sasquatch Horror Collection".
Uploaded
One of a few pieces composed on a battery operated toy keyboard that I nicknamed the Powersockey, due to the fact that the power socket was labeled that.
Uploaded
One of a few songs on the album where the percussion is a loop of myself hitting my computer desk with my hands. I think I got a nice hypnotic vibe going with this one.

I'll admit I completely ripped off the rhythm of "Closer" by NIN here.
Uploaded
As you can probably tell, I had a lot of fun with gratuitous panning and weird vocal effects on this album.
Uploaded
Possibly my personal favorite of everything I've written so far. I will admit that I can barely play guitar and this is the result of a lot of looping and editing.
Uploaded
I'm proud to say this is one of the weirdest songs I've ever done. I got some more use out of the beer bottle here, this time hitting it with a pencil instead of blowing on it.
Uploaded
So-named because it was a last minute addition to the album. I wish I could remember what effects I put on the accordion track to make it almost sound more like a synthesized sitar.
Uploaded
Of the whole album, this is the track I had most fun making. The instrumentation consists of accordion, beer bottle, work desk, toy keyboard, whistling, and scissors.

My attempt at one of Amelia's (The Missed Connections) songs. I think I darkened one of her few upbeat sounding songs.

CREEPY..MENTAL.. basically the same song as dronY but you never would have guessed that right? This is also an atmospheric room darkener. Sounds like the call of the wild zombie.

HE'S RIGHT BEHIND YOU. We thought this instrumental was just dying to be in a horror flick. The producers went with DMX instead. Really? up in here?

The lyrics were meant to be kinda stupid and obnoxious to set the bar really low for myself in an attempt to get over my chronic lyric-writing block.
