The fascists will be gone from power in four days (barring further coup d'états of course)... what am I going to write about when the adults are in control again? This was written for the 2018 RPM Challenge. I know all of the guitars used…

This one comes from the 2014 RPM Challenge. Structurally speaking this is very similar to the original. I shortened a couple of solo sections but otherwise everything is the same. The feel though is (to me at least) completely different…

I think it was the summer of 2016. I was trying to work on 50/90 and I set some rules for myself involving double tracking the crap out of everything and not using any GarageBandy short cuts like direct signal guitars with amp sims and copying…

I didn't get shut out this year! My demo plans for 2016 are proving to be way too elaborate so I wrote and recorded this in GarageBand on my iPad in one sitting. The music is overly simple and the lyrics are throw away, but it's done. Guitars…

I think this is the third time I've uploaded a version of this song to this account. I also think I've been unhappy with the mix of all three. Oh well. I might remix this. I say that a lot when I post new recordings, but it might actually…
