Robert James's listening history
When I wrote this back in June I was really loving everything about it except for my utter shit vocal take. I thought it was the key. When I redid it this time I lowered the key a whole step and sped up the tempo for good measure. Now I can…

I didn't even think of this until I started mixing tonight that this song has the exact same structural gimmick as the last song I posted. Ooops. I guess that's the risk you take when you are totally unoriginal and working on a sort of compilation…

I think I need to take a day off. My ears are turning to mush. I really struggled mixing this and I can't even tell if it's worth keeping or not.
This song was written during my first attempt at doing anything in GarageBand. Prior August…

Happy Halloween. Or should I say, Happy Covid-ween. Har Har.
Another song from 2007's failed RPM Challenge that wasn't finished until 2011. This was also on my short list of songs to re-record when I first thought of this whole silly project…

Now that the October album in a month thingie is finished I can get back to the better (not necessarily good) stuff. The Quarantine Tunes, volume 2.
This song is wicked old. I wrote it for the 2020 RPM Challenge, all of nine months ago…

The first song completed for the second round of re-recorded Quarantine Tunes. This one was written on the last day of the 2016 RPM Challenge. I had written a bunch of songs saying that people who think the Earth is flat are somehow defective…

Happy Halloween. At least for 19 more minutes here in New England.
This is the ninth and final song for the Quarantine Tunes Volume 2 project. Is it fitting that the song was written a month ago? I don't know. This was the last song written…
