Phew! Song 10 of my RPM 2024 done. Well, this is more of an experimental piece...I threw a bit of everything in...prophet synth, electric guitar, and even some crowd noise (I loved it when Bjork did that so...). The power cutout just as I was…

Song 9 of RPM 2024. Decided to focus on using my electric guitar and bass for this one. Had no idea where it would go...but it was certainly fun playing!
Came up with the lyrics on the fly :) Thanks to anyone who is out there listening. My…

Song 8 for RPM 2024...In this one I'm playing around with a bit of chaos. It is also an attempt at creating a song in 7/8 :). I like it weird. I put in a quote from one of my favourite David Bowie songs as the outro.

Song 7 for RPM 2024. I've always wanted to do a song with a one note melody line...here it is! I had my awesome husband join me for some lead guitar parts (which made it that much more fun). Thanks for listening!

Song 6 for my 2024 RPM challenge. Got the guitar and bass out for this one. It's a song with a lot of dissonance and so is kind of weird. But here it is anyways. Definitely not for everyone's ears.

Song 5 for RPM 2024. Sat at our piano for this one and got a bit carried away!
More of an atmospheric piece and the title track of my RPM "album". I love doing vocal harmonies (I grew up on CSNY). Thanks to anyone who listens :)

Anyone else still writing songs?
this is the result of trying to listen to too many mixes in one day. Sometimes it's just easier to record something else.

Song 1 for the RPM Challenge. Wanted to feature an incessant base line inspired by The Smoke.

Song #2 for this year's RPM album....another one from the basement in the middle of the night. Experimenting with minimal lyrics and a lot of repetition. The song probably has something to do with how we left our home of many years last February…

Song 5 for the RPM Challenge. Building tunes around an incessant bass line is oddly appealing to me. This is a bit of a dystopian song of sorts. Thanks to anyone who listens!

This was an RPM track back in the day, and I've been playing it various ways to find a setting for it within the band repertoire. This doesn't sound much like our band would do it but it came out nicely, so i thought i'd share it.

Someone's at the door. I'm not expecting anyone, and I just can't deal with this right now.

Most albums end in a finale - I guess this one ends in Heat Death.
(Unless I can up with another track in the next couple days.)

Awesome!
Song #4 for my RPM - Getting some good use of my old Prophet analogue synth (great if you enjoy physics). Bit of a gloomy song based on someone I once knew.
Thanks kindly for your listens! I want to get my RPM done so that I can hear what everyone…

It's now 12:00 am....so Song 2 for RPM is as done as it will be!
In this tune I'm experimenting with vocal layering and using my analogue synth (my guitar and piano are giving me the skunk-eye). Thanks again for anyone listening out there…

Thanks for taking the time to listen:) If you’re interested, my website is www.riciarae.com (I have some music videos too!). xox
