Augenschmaus - is something what is good looking. Ohrenschmaus is a pleasure for your ears. Cheers.

A nod to years spent in Athens, GA

Nothing special about this one except that it broke my one songwriting challenge rule: I rewrote part of it. The lyrics. I wrote the melody and a set of lyrics that fit late one night and even before I conked out for the night I knew it was…

Greg Connor wrote these words and I got permission to jazz it up Words Greg Connor. Music slkrell

Excuse the weird title. After completion of the track i had a really weird dream and this is my interpretation of it. Min 4:00 and on is a calming landing into peacefulness and mindfulness.

OK, so episode 3 of my Lockdown Orchestrations series....a different feel this time from the full-on epic trailer style from 1 & 2, perhaps?

Well the virus has my friend and music partner in Krakow Poland sheltering in place but we are using the time to write and record..here is our latest...we tried to write in the style of Motown...check it out ... all music and production by Art…

Finally I have completed a track on this, for me, a very uninspiring year, musically speaking. Lyrics come from the inexhaustible weirdness of my dreams. Happy Halloween... if that's a thing :)

Originally composed in 2012. Lyrics written 2019. Produced July-August 2019.

SOME PEOPLE - G GCG GDG Some people have someone to hold them when they are lonely Some people have someone to call their one and only A Some folks miss the boat, or get a boat that won’t float Or get a goat that eats their grass GCG…

The fortune cookies do not lie

Pack a bag and head out west Change of clothes and leave the rest Northern skin needs a little sun Sunshine can cure anyone Slow it down to a steady pace Forget about the human race All I need is what’s inside Take the rest and let it…

Just a little piano improvisation.

RPM 2016 is underway! This was written on an iPad on Tuesday 2/16 and recorded and mixed on Wednesday 2/17. It is just a looped 8-bar bass line with a change added somewhere on each iteration. The lyrics consist of one verse repeated forever…

I've always adored the vibe of Twin Peaks. This is my attempt to capture how it makes me feel. The original is by Angelo Badalamenti. --- I started by recreating the sounds of the instruments from the original recording. I spent hours…

It's not really a finished, polished recording, but isn't that the point of this website? Hope you like it. sunshine and all the dust faded colors up above memories of the one I loved coulda been the one the desert she don’t forgive ya…

Bits and Pieces

Last year friends and family seemed to be dieing right, left and centre. Part of my RPM 2015 effort

Bill got with Wayne and they made this... with a moxf6 yamaha and novation supernova II mixed together as counterpoint microtonal 22edo guitar bound the tones together. :)

RPM Holiday Challenge 2014 recorded entirely in Garageband on my IPad mini

Yes, yes I know. The guitar melody sounds a lot like the jazz standard "Goodbye Pork Pie Hat." I understand and I'm sorry, but it's so rare that I come up with an instrumental melody that I just have to run with it when I get one. The vocals…

...

just a recording done with my new 7-string guitar, it's working good so far...

The Link Wray tune.

Evan tries his hand at horseback riding. The steed gets away from him at one point and runs until it is exhausted.

2010 24 hour challenge. Record a 24 minute song in less then 24 hours. Work has been so crazy music has been taking a back seat. I might have to try this concept again to get anything done on the creative side of things. :)

For anyone who has ever lost a friend to depression and suicide - you might identify with the lyrics. The Rain Outside (Vlad & Me - 2013) The rain outside it falls on my window and slides to join its' friends below I saw your face…

A song about Cindy punching Steve in the face because he probably deserved it.

I actually wrote this awhile back, but I've wanted to re-arrange it and record it with better quality, so here it is. Everything is me except the drums which are loops.

#2 for RPM Challenge 2013

Finally got round to this!
