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 must be nearing the end because all of the playing and singing it getting sloppy. I like the call and response thing in the verse. The punches on the guitars are pretty shitty. I like all the sauce I put on the sax. So it's hit or miss…

This is an alternate mix of an RPM2020 song. I'm hoping half of my album will be arranged for acoustic guitar, hand percussion, and saxophone. I also want to do an alternate mix of each of those songs with the usual three piece rock band arrangement…

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…

I setup a drum loop and started playing and this is what happened. The verse is a 12-bar, the chorus is the V chord section of a 12-bar. There were a lot of punch ins for both the rhythm guitar and the bass, but there was no copy and paste anywhere…

The first RPM2020 song. For this song I setup a click track and just started playing. There are only two phrases and there are punch in's everywhere and many of them are just plain bad. I don’t believe what I want to believe I only believe…

Last week I posted a song called "Flat Earth Rebuttal" that was the second half of an argument between a Flat Earther and a person who fails to see the need for a biblical conspiracy against the concept of a spherical planet Earth. This song…

Long backstory: I was at a band practice and Greg the singer was telling a story about an acquaintance of his who had recently let it be known that he believed the Earth was flat. Seriously. We had a good laugh. A day or two later my wife…
