Away From Creation
W/M by OsCKilO
Pick me us up and set me down ,
In a box high off the ground.
It is what I’m used to out of life.
This is up and there is down.
In between we carry on.
Up and down the stairwells to the heights
Look upon…

Maybe it's intuition
But some things you just don't question
Like in your eyes
I see my future in an instant
And there it goes
I think I've found my best friend
I know that it might sound more than a little crazy
But I believe
I knew I loved…

I was planning on doing a theme-based rpm this year on outer space, but didn't manage to get all the rpm songs to fit. I've been reading a lot of Stanislaw Lem - probably my favorite science fiction author - and dedicate this to him. His books…

no lie this was a ton of fun to make

This one has a pretty silly lyric - it's about making up a place called “Wendouree Lane”, then later meeting someone who actually lives on Wendouree Lane and discovering that it actually does exist.

A last minute inclusion to my RPM 2012 album, after deciding to ditch a song and replace it with a better one. It was written in a hurry.

This one's a bit of a clunker in it's current form.
The first 2 verses are pretty cheesy, and it doesn't really have a chorus, just verses and a bridge.
Uploaded
Big cheesy pop song. Simple lyric, simple tune.

The tune is recycled from a song I wrote in the early 90s. All new lyrics.

A song about how hard it is to write words for a song.

This song is about the RPM Challenge; having 28 days (yes, I cheated, this year we get 29) to write and record a 10 song album. The illustrious Ghost Tea (http://soundcloud.com/ghosttea) added some rhymes to make it extra special!

General party rock anthem, with some golden era rock influences. experimenting with distorted synths instead of distorted guitars.

K.G. made gold with this one. words are oh so good. J.H. broke away from his bass and added a very nice banjo part. i did a little clapton bending . i think this is a magical moment for our band. we all came together at the end and did it! i hope…

this was one of our first takes of the month. still in search of a mix at this point in the month. my personal low point because i forgot my lyric notes and really cut my words short and didnt sing or deliver well. i highly believe in moving on…

i tell K.G. that this one is like the allman brothers and bruce springsteen doing a tune together. another kick ass K.G. tune. we played this thing alot and nailed this take live!

K.G. had a moody theme going on some of his tunes this year. love his words. this song is very easy on my ears. hope you agree.

words by The Goods,E.G. & K.G. . music by me M.F. . our preferred rpm track . this song is about a coward and what he has coming, based on an assault of one of our loved ones. you can hear the anger. that is cool!

this is our drummers(P.L.M) debut song with us and what a cool rocker it is. it was inspired by another musician that moved away and changed his name. i got to add a queens of the stone age/radio head type lead guitar part. what a treat!

this song is about my inner voice letting me down. i think i shorted it a verse or two. kinda hamming it up on vocals. a bit rag tag, but fun.
Uploaded
K.G. wanted to write a "good times" song and i think he hit this one out of the park. here in indy the highway does a big loop around the city. add some fun and music and that equals a rockin' good time.

This started out as an idea for a Big Freedia remix, and I did still make it into one afterwards. All of those crazy fills were edited together via ACID Pro, and other than the rhythm track the instrumentation consists of a distorted harmonica…

I wanted to rap over this, but got stuck when writing lyrics - I have vague plans to make an album or EP consisting of old instrumentals with new rhymes over them, so maybe the rap version will be ready for that.

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.

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.
Uploaded
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.
