AKA New Wave or "Unknown #1" As always, apologies to the band for the guesswork. LYRICS: New wave Wine Dine Smile because I said so that's Why Mired Fired because I said so

This may well have been our first collaboration, many, many Moons ago.

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?

I wrote this song as a way to process some of the feelings of sadness, dismay, anger, fear and love that were brewing inside my heart this past week. I live in Minneapolis, where the terrible killing of George Floyd occurred, and the subsequent…

Another silly little tune, this time about the world's favourite stout! (Edit: uploaded a new version. Fixed a few mistakes.) Lyrics: When the sun is up high, in a bright blue sky And you're walking around in Dublin town You got nothing…

Another original tune from Randy Arenson. I get to play a little harmonica on this one.

Original song by my friend and music partner Randy Arneson. Recorded in Garageband using a pickup plus condenser mic on a vintage Gibson 12 string (2 channels of guitar). I have a couple different versions of this one recorded...

I listened to a lot of Orbital back in the days. This song obviously materializes those melodic ideas I've kept safe somewhere in my aural memory. BTW, the name of the track is a nonexistent word generated by AI.

In Lockdown, I have really been inspired to return to my more classical roots, and have enjoyed playing around with the idea of epic style movie or cinematic themes/trailers. I have imaginatively named them Lockdown Orchestrations No. 1, No…

I made a silly little song in French about the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy `:-) Recorded on my phone, hope it sounds ok on the website! Lyrics: Je viens d'reveiller Je ne peux plus dormir J'prends du cafe C'comme ça, i'faut s'nourrir…

I know we're not supposed to pick favorites among our children, but this is my favorite. I've been told the initial instruments are a little too bold; I kinda think that's the point, but what do I know?

So named because I overheard a conversation between two people, and one of them actually used this phrase. It was in Cambridge, if that matters.

(Remastered 22/10/2021) Here it is in all of its glory... THIS is the song that Mrs R and I had decided was a suitable response to a request to "Upload something HAPPY, stat!!!!!!!!!" I tried to record it back in 2013 when I wrote it…

Deep in the dungeons of the dusty archive. I mean, that's where Hopeless Romantics belong, no?

I don't really remember this one. Oh yeah, on second thought... maybe I do.

A song from 2015, thinking about goats. Like goats, this one is only smelly if you're standing too close to it.

Lockdown 2020. Recorded, mixed and mastered at home by me & Billy.

Uploaded 5.28.2020

(Remastered 22/10/2021) I was asked (told?) to upload something happy. Hmmm, I thought. This will end well... So, a few days later, I was rehearsing a pleasant little thing I wrote several years ago that has a working title of "She Was…

No more covid songs.... Time to write about other things This one's for my muse I had uploaded an earlier version, but didn't like the mix here's another version KC ----------------------------------------- So many years we've been…

Steve developed this beautiful track with his ukulele and I added some lyrics to make a "positive message" song for the times we are in.... Hope it makes you smile too... It Won’t Be Like This Forever Sitting here on my front steps Listening…

A song I made up in retro style, just for a bit of fun ;- ) I used various guitars. It's partly sung in English and some of it in French. I try to do my own mixing, so don't expect too much LOL... Regardless, I hope you enjoy it ! Kind regards…

We wrote and recorded a new song while we are all on lock down...have really missed playing with the band. Lindy wrote the song and recorded his part at his home studio sent it to me and I added my parts and vocals Our studio is behind Ken's house…

With school turning out more runners, jumpers, racers, tinkerers, grabbers, snatchers, fliers, and swimmers instead of examiners, critics, knowers, and imaginative creators, the word 'intellectual,' of course, became the swear word it deserved…

It was a bright cold day in May, and the clocks were striking thirteen. - adapted from 1984 by George Orwell

loyalty is a one way street between criminals

they were last looking for it where the change goes between the car cushions...

A duet for piano and upright bass. I had composed and recorded this about ten years ago; given the current situation, seems like a good time to release it. One of these days I’ll figure out how to adequately record the upright bass; it’s again…

The creepiest dungeon and fortress beasts are alive during peculiar hours.

Hup!
