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 #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 #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!

Song 4 for my RPM 2025. I wrote and recorded it after dinner tonight. This time, I picked up the lovely Martin and strummed away. Another opportunity for some harmonizing. Thanks again for listening!
Please don’t pack it in

3rd Song for my RPM challenge. Went back to my piano and kept it minimal. I love singing harmonies (grew up listening to CSNY). Thanks to anyone who listens xox

Song 2 for RPM 2025 (I actually wrote this one first). Dusted off my electric guitar for this one (yeah, maybe I should practice more).
My heart is falling for you
Your heart, is longing to be free
And my days are very numbered
And you…

First song I'm posting for RPM 2025. Not sure I'll finish this year....but I'll try.
Wrote this after listening to more of the horrible news coming out of the US.
Watching for you
Over shoulders
Can’t believe our eyes

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.
Oh oh oh oh

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!
It’s not like you

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.
Anything, anything you say…

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 :)

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…

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 made your way
Oh you made your way

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 to anyone who listens! A gloomy song for gloomy times. Onward!

Just having fun in the woods. Playing around with the electronics. It may be too loud -
Here are the somewhat nonsensical lyrics
You’re like a stone….
You’re like the wind
I found a piece of mind
Within, within, within
You’re like…

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…
