Cry all night
While i’m holding you
Nothing helps
Nothing i can do
Feeling desperation
no percent of inspiration
It’s a hopeless situation
Through and through
And I run around in…

This is the first cover song I've ever really recorded in my 15 years of playing and recording.
The guitar and voice are each full continuous takes, I didn't want to do comping (copy and pasting), though the vocal harmony parts were done in…

Ukulele and vocals performed by Jazz, 12.
She's starting to write her own stuff (proud!) but just to get her in the studio for the first time, here is a cover of a song by Vance Joy.

Stacked some of Dan’s guitar/synth improvisation over an unused synth take from Kevyspice’s RPM 2026 album. That percussive bit sounds kinda like a percolator, plus Kevin is a big Twin Peaks/David Lynch fan, so...

This time around, Rebecca wrote another lovely poem to share with the group, then went a step further to the vocal mic to perform the piece. She requested the natural sounds of wind and waves as accompaniment, so Kevin sourced some samples from…

I said there would be four tracks, and now there are. I decided to use everything that I hadn't already used this year, including my old Roland drum machine, bass ukulele, slide guitar, guiro, bongos, and of course my trusty vibraslap.

Here is a next song for my RPM challenge...(this is my 7th year and I'm off to a slow start...grrrr). I threw this one together kind of quickly and it sort of wrote itself- which is always fun. I kept it minimal and mostly used my Juno Synth…

I'm a madman roaring down this rain-slicked road

Everything is not fine

Apocrypha

Apocrypha is a progressive rock song in the sense of Rush more than ELP or Yes. I had come up with the guitar and via my GR-20 the strings - everything else you hear was performed by my long time collaborator…

After writing this song about our newly adopted dog, I asked Kavin if he like to play some slide guitar, knowing that he would come up with something terrific... I just had no idea how terrific.

Concrete humming is underfoot
Same buzz in my veins

This is another one for the RPM Challenge. This is some kind of 'song'... using a lot of repetition. Built with my synths and vocals and with the pressure of a deadline and a new rescue dog requiring most of my attention. Thanks for listening…

Track four of my RPM 2026 project.
This one is definitely the most sprawling and varied of the compositions, with the highest instrument count. I wanted to tell the story of a road trip journey to get out into nature among the fall colors, which…

I’m all for paying your dues

Walking in, I read the room

In 1987, Ronn (drummer), Daphne (vocals and lyrics), and Paul (guitar and bass) wrote a few songs. Well, almost 40 years ago. It's a bit of slowcore and sadcore music. Or should we call it "religious" slowcore? Anyway, give it a name... The old…
