Not much to say about this but that it's one of the first songs I actually
wrote down every note for. I think that makes it a small cut above most of my
instrumental songs.
Uploaded
Inspired partly by a co-worker who was a great, now lost musician. This track is
somewhat about my five year stint in Gallup, New Mexico (Bob Dylan anyone?). This
was written as a poem before I started writing Slumber Love.

I'm not usually good at mixing two of my songs together, but i think this turned
out great. Maybe a little too Velvet Underground. Maybe nothing is ever too
Velvet Underground... Written just for Abide.

Supposed to be the biggest joke on this album, Candle turned more into an actual
like-able song. I was trying to make fun of Sonic Youth stuff, but it ended up
growing and becoming an instant Mud Octave classic track. The Lyrics were written…

This is one of the songs I wrote for Filthy Time that's been hiding
in the back of a notebook waiting for music to be chugged out. I'm
really glad I let this seep for a while before letting loose.

This song is one of the few i wrote just for Abide. I've been listening almost
non-stop to Dylan's latest release and this is what I got out of it. I mean no
disrespect to Bob, just trying to sing my songs.

I. The triumphant space pioneers land on the new planet, set up camp and decide to have a party.

II. Off in the distance, an ion storm is brewing while the space colonists enjoy cocktails on the spaceship's veranda.
Uploaded
III. The ion storm draws nearer to base camp, and with it, weird alien creatures that are part bug, part raw energy. The bugs play fetch with the elemental forces that surround them.
Uploaded
IV. While the space colonists are sleeping, the alien creatures descend on their camp. A battle between space bugs and the interstellar Orkin man ensues. The space pioneers beat a hasty retreat from the supercharged bugs.
Uploaded
V. The bug-like creatures celebrate their victory over the alien invaders (formerly known as space pioneers).

1, Intro to the arduous task of facing one's personal wall.

2. "This Wall Within Me" exposes the struggle to overcome one's own limitations during the RPM challenge. Story (and struggle) by Mick, music by Alan Hall
Uploaded
3. This is the "preferred" track from the 2008 challenge, and I think it stands well by itself. It is the narrative climax to the piece. Thanks, Mick!
Uploaded
4. The prog album's musical climax, with full orchestral treatment. I did NOT get the London Symphony to come to the session, alas.
Uploaded
5. The 'Hidden" track, appears after a lengthy pause on the CD version. The little artsy trick that all prog albums must have at the end.
Uploaded
Self-titled opening track from Dead In The Water. Part one of the Format Sea suite.
Uploaded
Part 3 of the Format Sea suite. Probably the closest thing to honest-to-goodness electronica here.
Uploaded
Format Sea - Part Four. The outro.
(One of the spots where I actually think I got the vocals fairly okay.)
Uploaded
A quick transitional piece - sort of a hybrid of ambient drone and louder rock.

I hijacked it from some audio notes

The guitars and percussion were written
and recorded in an hour. They replaced
a previous musical section that I spent…

This is a song that I wrote. Once again I am playing all of the instruments and doing the singing. The style has been described as a mixture of Depeche Mode and the Human League, but I don't know why anyone would think it sounds like the Human…

This is a partial piano demo of the (still) unfinished "tornado warning" vocal song.
Some day I swear I'll finish it!

Another silly a cappella.
I have all these toys but no inspiration

I did a brief stint where I used loop libraries.
I still feel as though this track should say "written by Robert Rich".
This is also why I no longer do loop libraries.
