Anyone read Ink Exchange by Melissa Marr - my daughter lent it to me - teenage Faery novel about addiction - pretty creepy at times. This is the one act musical version. I wanted a 'deranged in our neighbourhood' kind of feel to it.

An old Blues - you coming or staying?

Full name is "The Morphing Architecture Of The New England Vatican". This is another RPM 2010 track. I have weird dreams where your average New England city is juxtaposed with some holy Old World locale. The music and lyrics arose from that…

RPM 2010 track. Opener for "The Loudest Silence" album. Full songname is "Of Bad Sectors In The Human Mind".

a few weeks later...solo piano

Sprachgeist is a German term meaning the "spirit of language". This one ties into the theme from 2009's RPM Challenge Album. (Like A Dark Mirror Keeping Its Secrets).

This was one of the unnamed tracks that I recorded, forgot about, and rediscovered later in the month. It's basically about working the night shift on an office job. (You see really weird things at night when an office building is empty and quiet…

Title track from my RPM 2010 album, entitled "The Loudest Silence".

"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.)

If "Jenny Blue" is the closer, and "Shrinking Violet" is the outro, then this is the postlude to the outro. The only track I played in real-time on from beginning to end. (No idea how I managed to pull that off..)

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.

Do you remember those in your past who made your life more magical? Lyrics @ http://wave.transmit-music.com/fade.html Wave 2010 (RPM) Remastered version, June 2010.

The first single off of Dragons & Lace my completed 2010 RPM Challenge album.

Track 4. Contains an uncredited sample of American Indian drumming. I'd love to credit it... if I knew who it was.

Track 7 is about a couple of friends who seem to continually make self-destructive decisions.

Ever have one of those days? Yeah... that's what this is about.

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

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