RPM17
1/10
First song on RPM 17....eh first song on RPM ever lol
Really glad I made this one.
I had to dig up an old VHS tape (anyone remember those?) for the audio sample in this track.
The hardest part about making this tune was actually…
Damn! Feels good to hit the Upload button again!
Completed RPM 17. this is the last track!!. the album is my first run through with logic pro ( dumping pro tools and the monthly subscription fee)
I feel great playing again.. been so long…

Brilliant album - hugely enjoyed this as the sun came up today. It sounds sun-infused, musically robust and witty, cheeky... Well done on your first (awesome) RPM album!
Maybe this should have been called feb 28th lol
Who dosnt need a little more time for RPM?
Clearly I was running out of ideas for lyrics, So naturally, I asked Bob Dylan to help out
"I think I need a little more time". Love February, right? But this is sounding really polished. Love your spoken voice too. Late night radio swagger over smooth guitar infused dreaminess - I mean the whole album. Haha! Dylan?! This is bonkers. Great, but bonkers.

Lyrics
Crown of Dust
By T.Mokbul
If wealth was found in Shitty eyes
A thousand diamonds…
A re-mastered version using Norm Harris' excellent percussion
serial improvisation with
korg ms 2000
cameleon 5000
rapture LE
z3ta+
And Norm's percussion room
Did the guitar tracks first, followed by bass, then drums and vocals last. I wrote this song in a bookstore, after I came home and recorded it, I realized I made the song too short for all the lyrics.
Im talking, she's texting
Im givin…
Norm, my son's been ribbing me about buying a vocoder, but I would rather get a jacuzzi I caught some of that banter in the recording...just had to keep it
Peter, Ive listened to almost all of your posts now, they are all very good. This is one of my favs. Intelligent lyrics with stunning vocals and piano - totally pro mix. Nothings missing.
Great vibe to all of your tracks. Brian Wilson meets John Lennon
every time you show yourself
i'll let your image float away
I'll let your image float away
you have no power
you have no power
you have no power over me
Anthony, you would have to look high and low on this site to find better recorded vocals. From this song to Zephyr ride, outstanding vox. What do you use for post production?... outstanding.
This is an improvisation around a few chords I found when experimenting with two simultaneous tunings on my Fender Mustang run through the GR-20 retuned to Arabic 17 note Pythagorean tuning and also as-is through my DoD FX-7
The way this…
All right, so one of those silly songs needed to find its way onto the album. In an effort to teach the students on my middle school team about rhythm in poetry, I wrote this little bit of foolishness about a fictional character (so yes, you…
Starting out as a simple and awe inspiring invention, progressing to a more chaotic and demanding machine driven future. - people becoming enslaved to these devices. Feeding the machine.
Phone samples were recorded from the output jack of my…
i lay my head down on my pillow
outside i can see the evening sky
you are just over that Western horizon
and i dream that i can fly
the earth shakes '
my water breaks
we have given birth to something new
i see you standing hear before me
we…
warning!!! this is a long 10+ min instrumental
It's a piece about 4 years old that was my first attempt at using synth voices,, I am still looking for a good one,, if anyone knows.
The music itself is a tone poem, loosely dedicated to a children…
In 2006 we visited a Japanese garden. In September of 2009 I wrote this piano piece in 17 ET and I hear a connection between the two. So I put together a video from pictures and video taken of our visit and married the two. Please visit the song…
This one is called "Your Light".
Hope you Like it!

LYRICS
-YOUR LIGHT-
-By Tharek Mokbul-
We’ve heard all the compliments.
All said in a day.
They’ve lost all their meaning now.
Wasted away.
They were there…
This is my attack on writing a rock nd roll song! I was inspired by the sounds of Boston and VanHalen and I found the phrase Elegant woman While I was looking through the newspaper one day and immediately thought up a song idea!
soo I hope you…
I've attempted to get the sound of garden clippers in an offbeat with the associated music, sorta like the offbeat of clapping sticks in traditional Aboriginal music.

And lunatic is a lifestyle.
I'm really glad you made this one too before the tape finally turns to dust.
Not that I need another reason to enjoy jamming with you...
Cool first RPM album :)
Brilliant album - hugely enjoyed this as the sun came up today. It sounds sun-infused, musically robust and witty, cheeky... Well done on your first (awesome) RPM album!
Oh nice groove. Love this slinky bassline.
Love the carousel-esque intro.
OK, so now I'm cheek to cheek with a cowboy. I'll take it!
"I think I need a little more time". Love February, right? But this is sounding really polished. Love your spoken voice too. Late night radio swagger over smooth guitar infused dreaminess - I mean the whole album. Haha! Dylan?! This is bonkers. Great, but bonkers.
Ooh nice switches in feel here - cool and adventurous. Digging the last part especially.
Haha! Love RPM themed songs. And cocktail ones.
Pretty dreaminess. Love those trickling tendrils.
Is that audio from your wedding?! <3
So glad you plunged in to the RPM pool and it was such a great experience for you! Will you do it again? Loving this album opener - fab breezy feels.
Like it. Good job and nice arrangement :)
Aloha Reef, Nice! this is making me want to get out my stuff and record something.
Sort of making me drool a bit...
Whoa...
Love - indeed too long!
Very nice! Cool panning on the guitars.

This is excellent. I can believe I didnt comment earlier, Its been in the audio rotation in my car for 2 weeks
just went into this one after listening to Nebula, quite a change up, good creepy feel stays with you

Very cool effect, great piece. Also, thanks for the process explanation, interesting.
Great song/ love the lyrics.:)
Thanks guys for your comments and listen, had a lot of fun making this one

Great track. Cool lyrics
Have had some time to listen to this in my car during the work week. Excellent piece, took some time to wrap my head around it completely.
Cool songs , great vocals. Welcome to ALonetone
Thanks for the upload. Beautiful song-goes well with the video. An example of microtonal ? or with tune changes>?
Gotta love the lyrics, well played osk !
cool, Great vocals ! Welcome to AT
very interesting, I like the use of the clippers as a percussion sample, The bass marches though like a Tom Waits song
This is great stuff. love those highs
