My 7th song for the 2022 RPM challenge. This one is a bit more pensive and slow moving. I always love adding harmony. I was thinking of Bjork (who I love) when I wrote it. I included some flute so my sister can play along next time we jam…

Sultry ... Another excellent song, especially considering that you are writing and recording 1 every 2 days. Number 7? I think I've missed a couple. I'll have to go back and look.

Song 2 for the RPM Challenge. Wrote this at the piano and then had fun trying all sorts of spontaneous vocal harmonies. Switching time signatures for the chorus made for some challenging recording!

Fantastic compilation. Highly creative. Terrific bass throughout and love the piano in I’m OK. Ricia Rae has an ethereal voice. I also found this to be great workout music.

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!
Take me to the river
and hold me under water
Bow down beside…

Nice one. Yeah, I've been thinking (listening to stuff elsewhere) about writing to basslines. Most of the time I write with an acoustic guitar, singing it as I play it - no recording equipment is used/harmed. But something else happens if the bass is laid down first. And, as a writer, I also find it strangely appealing. Cool track... I'm ready for the next one!
Song 3 of RPM 2022. For the many tortured artists I've met with a bit of a dance spin to it. Most of my songs are unintentional and unplanned....they just happen. Thanks to anyone who's listening!! :)
Song 4 of my 2022 RPM challenge. A simple popish tune to add to the mix.
I never told you
what I wanted
no, it don’t feel right
the things you say
the things you do
well they hold me hold me

Clarinet played into an empty tube that formerly held a bottle of Scotch, which may have had some unconscious influence on the rough melodic form. Picked up by two contact mics into a Zoom H4n recorder. Submitted to Sound-In for 26/2-4/3/2021.
I love this. Has a great feel and I love the rawness of it. I love Patty Smith and she would appreciate this song I'm sure!! I would have liked to be her friend :)

Great bass
Beautiful piano! Lovely voice ! in You’re ok.

Oh yeah!! Love this one. Wasn't sure at first, but when the vocal started I was pulled straight in. LOVE the chorus.
Love the Beatles references! You go girl!!
Some space, some funk, exactly right.
Great track ...
Love your voice some very tasty guitar in this, the bass line fools you but solid through and through
Your entire album is fantastic. I love the overall vibe of the songs, and your vocals are great!

You have a great voice! Excellent song. Very catchy indeed. Good luck on your RPM!
