Originally uploaded under the band name of Sam Wells Virtual Band for the 2025 RPM Challenge. I thought having a pen name would be a good idea. Turns out I don't like it. So I'm returning the song to its rightful owner (me!) and uploading to my…

I’m light and love Until I go broke I’m nothing but smiles TIL I’m on my last smoke And if the suns not in my eyes I could tell you a joke “It only gets better? Let’s leave it to hope” I’m a fair weather vain TIL the rain makes me…

A single ebow line in G major, copied to new track and reversed, with some reverb and compression; added simple strummed acoustic guitar, recorded twice/doubled; canned drums. Recorded in Ableton. My idea is to record 5 days of ebow stuff like…

Brian's songs are so unique, he really is on another level.... They're deep, soulful and fun to jam to. We have a cycle, each time we get together we do a different member's song...I can't wait until it's Brian's turn next.

Day two of the Daily Two! I feel like I flubbed these drums. But I did the thing and that's what matters...

I spent some time in 2012 and 2013 to record my friend Rick who was just learning how to play guitar. He had grown up playing drums in different bands and found the joy of writing songs. Rick is no longer with us. Greg Connor Here is…

A quick attempt at some hypnotic techno a la deep bass..

Had a hard time to integrate the vox samples in this project but I like the result :-)

Yes…we’re TRYING to do an AC~DC thing here. The song was written by our lovable drummer Matt, but we all had fun working on it. (The Angus-style guitar lick was mine.) As always, the song is introduced to the band, kicked around and recorded…

My May 2025 REM (record every month Submission ... toying/Experimenting with different drum and Percussion Sounds/Modules with a bit Ambient Sounds in for good taste

a tribue to one of my favorite melodies. do you know it?

Beat Your Ass Like You're Talking Bout A Little Kid

Changed the approach a bit today: intended to blend a melodic line a third apart, but ughhhh. So, here's an improvised ebow line, copied then reversed, with some harmonics added. Still not satisfied with results, but am happy to have made three…

It takes a lot to get me going anymore Through Trials and Tribulations The needle drops into a dance I don't forget You've got a way of moving I'm twisted I'm twisted I'm twisted Around your finger

My version of Woody Guthries "all you fascists bound to lose.

I made this for the monthly Deluge challenge in April, topic of "metal". All sounds are from the Deluge Firmware 1.2 Preset Competition that I participated in. I made a revised recording on 6-23-2025 with a slightly different arrangement: adjusted…

I sampled and chopped to extract some chords from a lovely rearrangement of an anime bgm that Poloma from the REM group made, based on "In The Fall", from Yuyushiki https://youtu.be/NwvXD9yb558?si=SWC1AwZW0CEm732D I experimented with a few…

Latest iteration, trying to corral the trumpets! This tune is for a buddy who is old enough to know better but bought himself a three-wheeler anyway. I thought he needed a road song!

Anticlimactic jam in a time signature not yet known to man. Maybe 6/8

Another Track after a fairly long creative block. Also my Laptop with EndeavourOS crashed unbootable and I was not able to fix it. So i reinstalled and I am now trying to work mainly in Bitwig and try to install as few PlugIns as possible. So…

a walk down a moonlit alley in magnetic village cyber noir mysteries unfold electric bats feed on static bugs androids dream of the end of the earth today... a Y cable allowed me to have the Hydrasynth and Microfreak to record in to the…

This song is about getting lost in a labyrinth of the mind, reliving unpleasant moments, exploring what terrible things might have happened or could happen in the future, while fighting and trying to escape and wake up. On the Deluge I used the…
