This is a collaboration with some tasty funkadelic percussion added by Norm. Guitars and Keys with some Fx’s, I hope you like it,

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.

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.

It seems a lot of you record with open mics and can relate. I record 1 track at a time with usually 4 or 5 tracks. So, Im only asking for about 15 minutes of Silence…IS THIS TOO MUCH TO ASK??? Anyway, my house is so loud, I get a lot of bloopers, which I made into a song. Thanks to Black…read more

4 stereo guitar tracks played out one at a time.
Another late night - early morning recording.
I like to keep a positive attitude about the things that haunt me, but sometimes dreams change course unexpectedly, and the worms creep in.

I was collecting 4th of July samples and recorded a jewel. By chance, I recorded my 4 year old girl, and you can hear her thought process…wondering how the fireworks were so high in the air - perhaps the fireworks were dropping from the sky?
Percussion on this one by Norm.

Recording some match lighting samples recently and felt compelled to put some music to it.
I put the mic up to some raw acoustic guitar. Bass and lead added with FX. Norm added percussion, making it sound waaaay better.

As usual, served best with headphones
Enjoy!

Enjoying a few tracks on this site with Indian flavor lately. My brothers legs were so red from slapping them to get the perc sounds in this track, I had to laugh, That alone was worth doing the song ;)

A million guitars and he wants to play the Cello. :)
Live guitar, live cello, last summer’s crickets. pardon mistakes…

Sometimes, you just have to make a track so that you can play that big ass gong - you know the one im talking about.
4 guitar tracks and one for the gong. Various FX for guitar including a sustain FX which seems to go well with the gong droning.
As always, best served with headphones

I have issues at my house, sometimes they manifest themselves in my tracks. In this case, the bassoon and oboe represent the mouse. The guitar is the peanut-butter.

Having fun this week at my own expense, not my genre but what the heck. I used all the kids that were playing at my house on Monday for the chorus - had a blast.

Norm played the percussion first, which is a Bembe pattern; I couldnt help playing a melody and creating lyrics for this perc track. Thanks for the listen, Enjoy!

I realize now that any song with the word “cathartic” in the lyrics has flow issues…

Cheers!

Mid-flight serenity until that moment, you know those moments im talking about…

In-flight samples recorded by me, drums, guitars.

Jqscutt had this guitar riff that he sent me and we worked out a song with bass, rhythm, lead and drums over the internet. I posted it for a collab for some key additions. This was added by TiS friends K-Lyd and Coruz. Later, they found Liam Sanders, (now a fellow AT'er) who added lyrics and…read more

This song is not for everyone but I like it because its a live recording with a single instrument using infinity delay FX. (I turned on the loop delay at :09 after the guitar was flat on the floor.)
All the sounds are made with an acoustic bass. The siren sound is from whistling into the sound…read more

this was originally a song about breaking through paradigms but turned into a song about a girl.
Keys and string samples from Korg, MIDI with the old Ensoniq,

For all the folks who can find the silver lining no matter what the situation may be..
Pardon the clips

I did the guitar and bass tracks first, then procured my 10 year olds cello for the main bass line :) I also tried my luck playing cello with a bow on this track- which was a new experience.
The trumpet and violin bits are played with Korg keys.

This is a collab tune which was originally written by Tad Rees (aka Solo). He plays the Keyboard.synth, and I did the guitar and drums. The last half blends with his original which can be heard in completion at :

3 guitar tracks followed by a track with the trap set. A lot of alt tuning lately posted on AT which I like. This guitar was tuned to an open G. After I did it, I thought the sound was more like a backwoods, hillbilly song.

Unfortunately, I did not have a banjo to add to this, so I did…read more

No Ducks were hurt or killed during the production of this tune, unless eaten and thoroughly enjoyed

For everyone who lives in a bright sunny place. Got lots of snow in the mountains today.
On days like these, there are only 4 things to do:
1)start fire
2)shovel snow
3)Make music (inside, not on deck)
4)access EWABS (emergency wine and beer supply)

One of these things didnt get done…read more

You never would have caught me playing this genre a few years ago. WHat the hell happened ??

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 FINDING a working VHS player.

Enjoy!
