From RPM 2010

My sixth piece for RPM. Composed on the line between Lydian and Locrian. Also, the beat's never quite where the meter is.

couple beers, 6 lonely strings, and an electric noise quicker-picker-upper.

This Valentine’s Day, sing this song to your SO and there’s a good chance they’ll turn into your ex. -- Oy. About 6 hours of work: 1.5 hours to write the lyrics/melody first thing in the morning 1.5 hours figuring out the harmonic progression…

Rough version of my first RPM2010 songs... Hoping to have better vocals if I have time before the end of the month.

i've been having dreams about my ex girlfriend... it's strange to know someone for 8 years and then, one day, decide never to talk them again.

Not to sell this piece short, but after yesterday's grueling session, I'm just happy to have written anything at all today.

A song I wrote for my Bride this Valentine Day's. She said it was better than any present. God is Good!

An Alt.Country style song about a girl named Katherine Lynn

Something is coming... Gear used: Alesis Micron, E-mu XL-1

This track is inspired by the movie "Seven Pounds". Gear used: Alesis Micron, Dr202, Mic

Freeform guitar piece.

laying on the beach looking up to the stars.

Synthesizer, guitar, and space echo (Boss RE-20) combine to create controlled noise and keep it musical (that was the goal anyway).

A folk-rock tale about facing your fears and surviving to tell the tale.

A prog-rock style song about trying to figure it all out before it is too late.

Sounded like a bit of discord in paradise to me, so this is how it ended up.

Early morning, down by the docks, the fog is heavy before the sun burns it off.

Flying above the buildings and trees feeling free.

just a quick little instrumental that i really like...

This started as a simple piano piece from Osckilo, I took that as a beginning point and added the rest (synth, guitar, drums from Boss microBR), turning it into a prog-rock instrumental.

this is one i have to stop tweaking - six versions and i still don't get what i hear in my head would love some crit for this one as it's doing my head in thanks

With this sub-1-minute, A-section-only piece, I win FAWM.

Written and Recorded: Feb 14, 2010 Details: Epiphone Les Paul (DADGAD), Seymour Duncan Pickups, POD XT, Boss RC-20 Looper, EBow, Audacity...all fingers, no picks.

It's not blues, and it's got more than one note. Another headbanging one.

A little backwards drum bit, topped with the same drup bit run through various effects.

this is a jam that me and two friends did. i am a fan of the chili peppers and hendrix. of course there's more i like but you would definitely hear that in what i am playing on the guitar. let me know what you guys think.

Where's all this sappy music coming from? The Olympics were on. I must have been watching too much figure skating or something. Unmastered track from my 2010 RPM Challenge submission.

The sort of music that enters your head when you're lying awake in bed at 2am in the morning.

If only! Thanks to all those helped with this song.

Please note: No seven year old child was hurt during the making of this piece of music.

whispering pines of ambigousness
