Lebenslinie (Life Line) Life, if you look back at your own one, or at the stories of others, often seems to be presented as an ornate line. This line is trying to branch out, but since a person is indivisible, that lifeline is always one, but…

Plucking out a soothing little tune in Em on my little lyre harp. Recorded on my phone.

Now a decade old, I thought I would revisit this mix again. I have done this a few times as I continue to learn the craft. I thought it would be a good exercise to undertake as a start thinking about writing again for the next record.

Meditative three-part arctic ambient suite, with lots of droning and bells.

It's a full Strawberry Moon.

Yet another from the very creative period in the summer of 2016... I recall I had time on my hands! The original bass track was done on my Fender Jazz 'Geddy Lee' and sounded great. Sadly, several versions of Logic Pro later resulted in the file…

When you C reach the Em point When it’s F all in the rear view C mirror And Am reflection is your G only point of C view G You C feel it Em inside When it F becomes so C clear There’s Am nothing that G you can C do F Hold on to G memories…

Whistling a tune, I walk up to the house and meet a cat on the doorstep. We are going to have supper, and at this time a blizzard begins. April. 05.04.2021, live recording.

This is a long one - a big old late night jam on just about every keyboard/synth that I own. This one goes from ambient to aggressive to a soft exit.

instrumental

Combination of my track As the Clouds Roll Away with Struk String Rambul by Coelocanth, both of which were submitted to Sound-In (as was this) for 4-11/3/2021. No alteration was made to either track before or after combining.

We decided to give the kids an outlet that wasn’t pandemic or lockdown based this February, and made an album as a family for the RPM Challenge 2021. It was just the most precious, funny, brilliant month.

Another one where the riff came first, on the last day of RPM 2020 actually. Before all the craziness struck. I thought to myself "Oh self! That's a good riff! I will need to revisit it next year for RPM 2021." So I did. It also has a call-back…
