Song 10# for my 2025 RPM Challenge. Wrote this today with my synthesizer, drum gadgets and keys. A bit dark, maybe for a movie about an assassination. This concludes my RPM for this year :) Thanks to anyone who has listened.

Song 5 for my RPM Challenge (the half way mark!). Decided to use my Juno synthesizer for this one - I love that thing. Did this yesterday after a nice winter hike. Thank you to anyone out there who listens - much appreciated xoxo

Song #7 for my 2025 RPM Challenge. Another one with my Juno Synth as the main player. It ended up being much longer than intended (but it fits with the title...). I call it a Peter Griffin ending (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X4X8HsEj7d4…
Song 8 for my 2025 RPM Challenge. Experimented with my very old Bass...that doesn't keep its tune very well! Onward I say. Thanks for anyone out there who listens - much appreciated xoox

Song #6 for my 2025 RPM Challenge. This one is sort of a dance (anti-dance) song. Composed mostly using my Juno Synth. It took ages to put together oddly. Thanks to anyone who dares to listen!

Big sound, you still have the touch. I wonder what you are doing the other 11 months of the year (more a statement than a question). I hope you are writing, performing or something associated with music. I always enjoy hearing what you produce.

We like ... (Mrs R listening too) ... This, like Almost Felt Like Dancing earlier, throws me right back into being the "university student me" in the early 80s - I can almost taste it. Very cool track.

I really like this. It reminds me of the early industrial stuff, bits of Skinny Puppy? The vocal work gives it a completely different feel, but the bass and drums pound.

**Song-writing Demo for FAWM 2025**
Song number 01
Written Saturday-Sunday 1st-2nd February 2025
Written 1st-2nd Feb
Demo recorded 2nd Feb
****
I wasn't gonna do this FAWM thing this year, but they sent me an email...
And then I wrote…
Hello again! Great to see you back :) Beautiful song!! You are off to a great start. Amazing what you can do with just guitar and voice...real musicianship.
Final version
Day 28
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.
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.
Quick and dirty video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y2RX46VnKec
Infernal howls and screaming by Mitri, Felix, Pteri, and Rosa.

Let me tell you a story about the time that Dave fell asleep on the conveyor belt again.

It's probably not a huge surprise that someone who chose a moniker evoking a hyperactive bigfoot would be a fan of b-movies, this is my punk rock love letter to them.

Just looking at the track profile I could tell there was gonna be a ripping outro and I was happy to wait for it :P
Outstanding song! Great feel and flow. :)
Cool .....another Great Tune!!!
Excellent song! It's got kind of a Kate Bush feel. :)
Beautiful slow build. After hearing this, and recently breaking out my old Roland beat box, I feel a sudden need to get an old analog synth. :P
That synth is so lonely and the vocal accompanying is a perfect fit
