Robert James's listening history
This was the first idea I came up with for my album-in-a-month for April. I didn't intend to have it be three distinct sections. I originally meant to have it bouncing between quiet and heavy every 8 or 16 bars. I like the way it turned out…

This is from March but it was a bit of an after thought. I had planned on the 10th song being something else (it eventually made it into the April list) but I noodled this together on my iPad one night. I also recorded the rhythm guitars on…

Tempest Fero Lives again!
My first real band was called Tempest Fero. We shoulda rethought that name. Anyway, this was one of the first four or five songs we wrote. There should be keyboard, but I don't have the skill or the patience to…

This was the last March/April song to be have the tracking finished. There…

Yup, @floridaman again. This time a couple stole money for crack and told the cops they were kidnapped and forced to steal the money. No way anyone will see through that story, eh?
This mix feels mushy. It's made worse by the tons of sauce…

When I finished RPM at the end of February I decided to immediately start on a new project for March. I called it RPMarch. At least I did until I failed to finish on time. This was the first song I worked on. The bass part actually dates back…
