The first track for RPM2017. Get used to buried vocals this year, they are pretty bad and the mixes will reflect that. The guitars are all Les Paul through the direct out of a Fender Bassbreaker 15. The leads also used an EHX Soul Food overdrive…

The second of two songs written and recorded on Labor Day in my garage, using GarageBand. Woah! I don't care much for this one now that it's done, but for the first time in my songwriting life I think I have a song where the melody is my favorite…

The week ten challenge is keep a song under two minutes? Done! Written in a parking lot while my step son played in a Magic the Gathering tournament. Another overly simple riff song with filler lyrics and an overly simple demo using GarageBand…

I ran out of 50/90 gas in late July when I was at 27 songs. I was trying to make a decent quality demo of each idea and it bogged me down to the point that I stopped trying. Now that we're in September I'm trying to make really quick and dirty…

Eh. Pretty far from my best. It seemed like a good idea at the time, and then I compounded the weakness by playing badly and messing up some edits. Oh well. The lyrics are about driving in Waltham, MA, home of the most idiot traffic I've…

This one is strange because I don't dislike it. In fact, I think it's kinda groovy. The lyrics... maybe not so much, but the music? Me likey. So weird. I mixed this on my iPad. I might port it over to my Mac and remix it there. GarageBand for…
