This is the 30th song in my album, Edolian, where I sequentially make a song in every EDO from 1 to 31. (One more to go!)
30EDO has 5EDO as a subset, so the first thing I did is create 5EDO. Then, what I did was move a few of the notes up…

This was written as a challenge in 2016 for a joint birthday party with a 30, 40, 60 and 80 year old birthday celebration all linked into one big bash.

Four tracks of percussive sounds played on the body of a neckless, stringless miniature acoustic guitar, picked up by a balanced contact mic. That was fed into an EHX Voice Box on Vocoder mode which was combined with various signals from a Zoom…

I began having guitar tuition with the rather amazing Nathan King of Level 42 a few weeks ago and this is really the first song in which guitar is the main focus - It needs vocals but I'll add it to warbling list when I'm back in the UK

This one's a turd. It's only here because I'm doing an RPM Challenge rules album in a month and I need 10 songs. This is #10.
I'm willing to forget this happened if you are. Sound good?
Thanks

In a 10 song cycle where none of the songs were meant to feel like actual songs, this one feels like an actual song. Complete with guitar solos. One of them is backwards though, so it's got that going for it.

A silly, sort of dreamlike / lullaby-ish tune, about weird travels on a bubble-gum balloon.

See one time I was chewing bubble gum and it was mighty fine
I blew a bubble so big it took me up into the sky

Playing a pair of cracked cymbals with a soft vibes mallet. Different approaches each time (unaltered and mallet head, small metal tin lids to alter sound, playing using mallet handle). Only post alteration is some noise reduction.

And now for something completely different... Right now it's hot.. and I mean 50 degree hot. So I had in my mind's eye a summery, trippy 'under a palm tree' kind of vibe. And I got that... but I got more... much more...

This was one of my early recordings in 2016 as I had been learning how to create songs in a key and solo over them. This one was played over a Floyd style backing track, but I wanted to try a different lead tone. Another track off of my 2016…

Urgh, this song. Destined to be last on the April RPM Challenge album, not because it's a good closing number, but because it's crap and everyone will have stopped listening before they get this far.

Another one with an attempt to sort of improvise the rhythm guitar part. Some of it at least. Also, another one with a melody that... well... seemed like a good idea at the time.

There are a few things from this month's batch of songs that I tried to kind of improvise the rhythm guitar part. I looped a section of the song and without figuring out what I wanted to do ahead of time I hit record and saw what happened. This…
