I was going through a real bad relationship breakup this fall...this is the abstraction of that relationship. Happy ending though, we are patching things up and working on getting back together. Hard to walk away from 15 years of experiences…

Based on some crazy events of my life in the fall. Relationships...so difficult...

About a special place...its not called Laurelie, but I liked the lyricism of that word.

this was my last rpm song...i had a little mandolin riff and threw on the kazoo (which broke in the last verse), and it reminded me a happy bee buzzing around...and there you have it!

Another angry song. My boss once handed me a spreadsheet about cost prices from vendors and said "I don't like the way this looks". I wondered if the upper management looked at salary costs the same way, and that led to this song.

Meant as an outro to the RPM 2010 album. I'm not proud of it, but i needed 1:45 more music to complete the challenge and it's the last day!

quick little mandolin number to round out my album for the year!!

Track 9. I love when my inane babble turns into a useful lyric.

This is one of the tracks that ties into the theme from my RPM 2009 album [Like A Dark Mirror Keeping Its Secrets].
A fall from grace. Every up has its down. Every down has its up. There's definitely a "ying and yang" thing at work here.

"Jenny Blue" was originally supposed to be the album closer, but this track seemed like a nice outro.
(Definitely Tangerine Dream worship on my part.)

The most challenging track to record during the RPM Challenge this year. I like how a lot of it turned out, but there were so many clashing pieces, that I was pulling my hair out trying to assemble it.

A Song About an old Saying......
Sh*t Happens......
Lyrics
T.Mokbul 2010
-In A Day-
Half a Glass of Gasoline
Mixed with Some Kerosene
Stirred in with Coffee
Laced with amphetamine
All That it Takes in A Day
To get by…

Bit of a waltz.
Everything I know about dancing I learned from watching.
This is my piano debut.
Bethan deserves some of the blame for this one somehow. Thanks.

At the 23rd hour we consider whether we've made the right decisions.
Written and recorded less the 48 hours before the end of the RPM challenge deadline. I wonder why.
Is this our 23rd hour
Sixty minutes to go
Are we counting the seconds…

Sending home pay

Inspired by the David Brooks book "Bobos in Paradise" and an article I read on the so-called "Prosperity Gospel", which is one of the weirder religious movements I've heard of.

Stumbled across this in the vault. Some cool summertime nightnoise from Hico, Tx. Listen close you can hear the coyote calls. Feel free to use it.

A song about the five stages of grieving, as devised by the (late) Elizabeth Kubler-Ross. Unfortunately knowing these stages does not help you get over them.
You've been managing expectations
Consultations end in tears
Even if you're optimistic…

This is from the live recording last night, which will comprise my submission for the RPM Challenge.

For String Orchestra. First performed in Grassington in North Yorkshire, a place of outstanding natural beauty.
This version is computer generated I'm sorry but it sounds ok!
Thanks

Lorelei reaches her breaking point after years of abuse — via a failed attempt at an homage to Ennio Morricone (had he been Mexican).

From RPM 2010. It's entirely analog synthesizer, drum machine, and my voice. Effects, too, of course. It's pretty repetitive, but I find it kinda catchy.

“my jetpack” a floaty, atmospheric type piece.
Notes:
I’m not thrilled with the strings (the part that only shows up once in the piece). I need to blend them more. They’re too abrupt.
I think the “percussion” may get too loud towards the end…
Uploaded
One of my favorite and most interesting songs I've ever written. The last have of the song is exclusively synths, and one of the first times that I did not write it on guitar.

Track 12 from "They Are Killers" ... originally to be #11, but I decided this was a better one to go out on.
Uploaded
Dang, everyone except Rob (and Laura) (and me) liked the previous version! (Cupid's Own Knife)
Only i did this with the lyrics so maybe one can be a bonus track ...
aargghh ... why didn't i write a *different* song?
