I wanted to sound like the guy from Rancid but I don't think it worked out so hot. - Tom

keepin' it old school

The RPM Challenge does weird things to a guy, I tell you. The chorus to this one popped into my head, fully formed, at about 9:15pm on Saturday February 27. I wrote the whole thing that night, including lyrics and melody, and recorded all but…

Originally my idea was to improvise half a conversation, then also improvise the other half as a different character - I ended up deciding just having half the conversation was funnier. Kinda unintentionally inspired by "Pollo Asado" by Ween.

Madame Fortune seems to enjoy spinning that wheel of hers. It's tough to keep up sometimes. As Gilda always used to say, "it's always something." Executed entirely upon the Korg DW-6000 and Yamaha CS1x.

Another crappy backing track. Use it if you like.
