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 :)
Oh…
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…
3rd Song for RPM. Getting this done was filled with late night torture.
You tried so hard
You tried so hard
But you’re not there
You’re not there
You’re not there
You’re not there
You made your way
Oh you made your way
But…

First Day of the 2024 RPM challenge .... so here is Song 1
I'm experimenting with my old analogue synth (Prophet 6) this year
Thanks to anyone who listens! A gloomy song for gloomy times. Onward!
One day

It’s over, it’s over…

It’s fun to find you again for RPM. It’s like coming across an old friend. I’ve listened to your first three RPM entries. I’m noticing a theme and you are off to a great start. Good luck/Have Fun.

The final Song for my 2023 RPM challenge!! Dusted off my acoustic guitar (and blistered my fingers) to get this one done. Phew! I love Latin rhythms and so I found a beat and jammed it up. Thanks again to anyone who listens -it's really fun…
I've enjoyed listening to some tunes tonight and this one is right in my ball-park!
Wonderful groove and vocal. And it highlights something i kept noticing. You write or craft wonderful bridge parts, whether they are vocal or not they give that magical lift to a tune. If I find a nice bridge for a tune this year it's down to you!

It's summer time, I'm at a cottage, I've been listening to a lot of weird electronic music and thinking about the world burning up. I'm playing around with layering vocals - something I love. Thanks to anyone who listens even for a few seconds…
I love the vocal layering, I want to say its "haunting", but that's not the word. Enigmatic perhaps? I don't know, something resonates with me... resonant?
Am I having writers block in a comment?

Going through my collection over the years...thinking I'll post some of those old tunes (pretty rough and ready....one take, recorded on garage band I believe). Why not...life is short! Thanks to anyone who listens :)

Yeah, I hear the CSNY in this. Also a nice harmony that sounds familiar that I can't quite place... you got me thinking:-}
Oh I love the momentum in the lyric. Wonderful.
Gorgeous harmonies. There's a great build to this one.
Love the harmonies on this! Another beauty.
I love the layering! Makes me want to dance in a crazy circle!
Your gorgeous voice is the perfect match for these eerie and melancholy lyrics. Love it. The dance beat adds another level of mystery.

Stretching the boundaries. Minimal instrumentation carried by a heavy drum groove. It sounds good!
Interesting sound of drum and vocal. It’s a real toe tapper.

Good stuff. Such a cheery soundscape!

this is tight.
Always love the idea of vocals used as part of the rhythm. An age-old method used perfectly here.
Now that hit the spot , great track ....
loving what i've heard from you so far ..I shall have to delve deeper when I have time
Nice tap along beat...sounds haunting. I like it.
Nice jazz feel here. I like it all. Good job especially for a rough take. :-)
Oh yeah!! .. Jazzy!!
Cool set of Raw Songs !!

This is very meditative and cool. Seriously beautiful - wow, I would love to sing to it (I actually am while I'm listening).
