Experimentation with taking quiet sounds and compressing the hell out of them. Drum fills courtesy of Chris Thomas.

The album kicks off with one of the gritter, darker songs. The amazing, gravely voice you hear is that of Linda Harrison.

There are a bunch of bass tracks going on here. Headphones help pick out what's going on. This one came to me leaving Taos on the drive back to Phoenix, coming down out of the canyon. I suddenly became conscious of a disturbing dream from the…

"There's a dude from Indiana rockin' real hard to Carlos Santana!" If you've ever been to Indiana, you'll know where this came from.

Inspired by the book Musicophilia by Oliver Sacks. An earworm (or brainworm as Sacks espouses) is that catchy melody that sticks in your brain that you just can't shake.

The lyrics continue the theme of the previous track, if you care about that sort of thing.

these 2 "new" songs are a test to see if I now have what I need to successfully upload material. These 2 songs were recorded 20 years ago on a Tascam 4-track. The band is the Riptiles.

2010 RPM Challenge Track. Lyrics
The thin veneer
That thin film of fear
What have you started
And what of your dreams
they tear away
And they won't return
We won't return here
Anymore
Dont they tear away (the thin veneer…

The anthem of my musical career. I'm joking. I hope.

Relate if you can. Rock your ass off if you can't.

The final track of my 2010 RPM Challenge album. The intro is a bit of a red herring to lead the listener(whoever that may be...) to believe it is in the same vain(vein?) as the Fear Trilogy but then morphs into something else. This too fall into…

Another track from my 2010 RPM Challenge album. It is a song about our little family and what is going on in our house at this point in time. The kids never tire from hearing their names and activies in song.

I wish you could see
The beautiful light
That surrounds you
It touches me, touching you
We look at these pictures
When we were young
Long for yesterday
When we knew nothing
Now we know so much
Too many things
Why can’t we let go
Forget everything…

Just a basic dance track because its just fun to bounce around sometimes. Also another excuse to use a growly bass sound... a "60 Hz Hum Bass" soundfont I had clearly neglected for too long.

Finally a good cut of this one. Named after Daniel Burnham of Chicago's Burnham Plan, this song is about the downfall of western capitalism. I'm completely unprepared for it myself -- I have no idea what I'll wear.

Track 11... I have to stop writing parts that I can't cleanly play.

lullaby featuring piano (but of course!)
Notes:
Today I learned how to add an insert effect to the master channel. The song was way quiet so it got boosted via a limiter. Hurray.

Emotions get the best of me sometimes and this is what comes of it....
Gotta pour out my heart.

to let it die
i died again and again

a pain so…

Alternative grunge inspired, Alice in Chains like, about shitty pop music and how we can't get rid of it.

She sees the lights,

Featuring Otis Maly on Organ.
Maybe it’s a trick of the light
The way your eyes shine at me
I don’t want to fight and I can’t take flight
Somethin’ tells me I’m gonna see
Just what spell you put on me
I can’t let you out of my sight…

I have touched and I have known
the memories of stone
And echoes of the oceans
are etched upon my bones
My body's of the earth
and my spirit's of the sky
My mind is of the matter
these memories will never die
So let's go down below…

I came up with the initial rhythmic riff on my bass, then looped it to create the basis for this track. Then, I layered another "lead" bass track on top of that, added some percussion, and finally topped it off with an electric piano-ish sound…
