Syllables has too Many syllables to make Really good haiku.

Track 1 of "Cutting Edge Nonsense" My 4th RPM CHALLENGE CD An upbeat piece that's a cross world beat and a touch of house.

Track 2 of "Cutting Edge Nonsense". We start off with a nice house and dub beat,a little ambient.Keep that beat going..

Track 3 of "Cutting Edge Nonsense" So,what are you saying in your sleep? Me..I have no idea! A mix of deep bass,some hip hop beats and just strange voice(not mine!).

Track 4 of "Cutting Edge Nonsense" Alas..the title cut.That deep bass rumble you first hear? That would be a Tibetan Singing Bowl.I wanted a tribal feeling for this piece.

The forecast looks good: Some say rain is on the way. Skiers pray for snow!

Ray Bans typify 80s cool. Am I too old? Son says, "Dad, those fail!"

Flesh-eating zombies, Aliens, robots, vampires! B-movie madness!

you'll find that these songs and the lick lichens stuff are very differnet from chimps

I couldn't think of a dumber title for this, so I went with this one. BTW, it's my favorite track on the album hands down. Too bad I couldn't match it with a haiku. It's just as well: perhaps vocals would have spoiled it. ;)

Opportunity. Why do so many windows Remain unopen?

Bleak frugality-- Scrimp, save, can barely make it-- The unsung percent.

Time for a noodle in the middle of the house move...packing....dumping......sorting...reminiscing..... still waiting to exchange contracts and mean't to be moving Friday....a little stressed

Memory creates A world from possible pasts. Soon it's gone again.

Traffic fines doubled In the road construction zone. Slow down for the cones.

Sometimes I surprise Even myself. So many Masks; which one to choose?

New swallow's lessons: "Before you learn how to crawl, you must learn to fly." I learned after writing this that swallows DO actually crawl around in the nest before they take the plunge. Oh well. You learn something new every day.

First day of April: I have played so many tricks. Who is the fool now?

Sundays in the park: Drumming, traffic, sweet birdsong, Lovely car alarms.

Pungent aroma, Skunk versus car, skunk loses. Mommy won't come home.

Aeolean muse, Sing to me your dulcet tones: Windchimes in autumn. (I actually heard the first three notes of this piece on my windchimes and the whole thing unfolded from there.)

Raking on Sunday: Leaves observe no one's Sabbath; Neither, then, shall I.

Recorded at an oceanography meeting in Salt Lake City this February (2012). The Ekman Spiral is a phenomena that describes the vertical change in ocean current from wind at the surface, which is in a spiral decreasing with depth. The spoken…

Re-recording of an old song I'd originally written for an even older band, Buckle. I think Buckle's been done now for almost eighteen years, so it may be safe to dust this off now and expose it to light again.

A "remix" I did a while back that got lost in the shuffle. The original was for our 2010 RPM album "Onion Bell" and can be found here: http://alonetone.com/cavestreet/playlists/onion-bell

Here's another little something that I somehow got sidetracked on posting.... Thanks for the jams Norm! One of these days I'll bounce something fresh your way....

Revisiting this track too. For some unknown reason, the church across the street from my former abode occasionally rang their bell at 7:30 in the morning. Not every Sunday. Come to think, Sunday wasn't the exclusive day either. At any rate…

The 15th and final song written for RPM and FAWM. Fittingly the lyric is about the end of the process... even though there was still a ton left to do when I came up with it. I guess I was feeling optimistic, which is seriously unusual for me.
