An attempt to evoke images that weren't in the first-person. I tend to write in abstract fragments and this piece is no exception.

An exercise in configuring sonic spaces - it was only later that I realized the scathing lyrics were self-directed.

An older song from a previous band that was never quite captured to my satisfaction. I was going for very laid-back "Pale Blue Eyes" vibe.

A deceptively forceful song dealing with the death of my sister.

Powerlounge - Electric Cheer An album created for the 2009 RPM Challenge, conceived to be eventually cut into vinyl, and arranged as such, in two halves. The track listing for side 1: Welcome to my Weird Bye Bye Baby Genius / Madness Negative…

Side 2 of my virtual record. It's a long, mostly instrumental suite (a 'Lounge Suite' - I know that's corny but I just cant resist:) The different sections run as follows: Opposite Attractions Sloppy Jo Too Many Martinis Prefix/Suffix A Cup of…

this is based on the soundtrack of a film called september clues very interesting dunno if its true but fun all the same for conspiracy nuts....

Easily my favourite track on the album. This was a real forced number at the start of it's life; I was well behind my song quota (5 finished on the 23rd... time to worry) and I needed to knock something out at least. Something clicked about an…

Why this represents 1993 is really quite a mystery to myself. I was 2 years old, so I've no idea why it strikes me as such a dark and mysterious year. I think I managed to get down exactly what I was thinking with this track.

The scene setter. This was the first track on the album and I've still got mixed feelings about it. Audibly, I like it. Cohesively, it doesn't REALLY fit in... My girlfriend told me "like it needs to represent the rest of the album. It grabs your…

There are too many amazing quotes from this film to not sample them SOMEWHERE in my album. Time after time, the 'yo-yo master' line got me laughing, so I thought I'd pay homage to it.

I would make the 70's sound more like this.

One of my darker tracks. This tracks epitomises how RPM felt for me; A progressive struggle where I just got my head down and got stuck in with the thing. In a phrase, this track says to me "Just fucking get on with it."

I'd be lying if I said this entire track wasn't sparked by the opening audio clip. It really made me think about the ways some people create their own enjoyment. Cool.

A bit less percussion and a bit more rhythm was the idea for this. I say that, but the track had a fully formed drum track alongside it until right at the last when I discarded it in a fit of creative temperament.
