2022 RPM Challenge song number 17. Now we're talking. I like this one a lot. My self criticism are valid, the melody in the verse is too la di da sing songy, and I shouldn't have used a Big Muff fuzz pedal on the rhythm tracks (too much bass…

2022 RPM Challenge song number 15. Not too bad. I can live with most of it. The vocals are kinda spotty and I don't think I'll ever use the setup I used for the first guitar solo again (vibe after fuzz? Not this red head!) but I'm mildly…

2022 RPM Challenge Song Number 14. The title pretty much says it all. I had more trouble improvising over this stupid little asshole of a song than I've maybe ever had before in my entire life. It was awful. The leads you're left with are…

2022 RPM Challenge song number 13. I use GarageBand for all of my amateur recording needs. I use the MacOS version for recording real instruments and mixing and adding gobs of echoes and stuff. Sometimes I used the iOS version to kick off…

2022 RPM Challenge Song Number 12. This one is okay, I guess. Nothing special. It has eight bars of three part harmony and I always feel good when I can pull that off. I'm not sure if it has what it takes to make the final RPM album, but…

2022 RPM Challenge Song Number 11. I'm torn over this one. I like the riffs, I like the groove, I like the melody, but I think I hate the lyrics more than I've hated any lyric I've written in a very, very long time. This is what I get when…

2022 RPM Challenge song number 10. I currently have 10 songs finished and the running time for those 10 songs is 36:22. I could call it complete now and feel good about myself. I still have 10 more songs to mix though, and this one is heading…

2022 RPM Challenge song number nine. Simple. I like it. It started with me strumming over a drum loop and then developed quickly. I thought about leaving the bass and drums off, but wimped out. It's a little folkie, but not THAT folkie…

2022 RPM Challenge, song number eight out of (hopefully) 20. I liked this one a lot right off the bat. I even put a note on the trello card that this one might be the winner. I'm not so sure about that anymore, but I do like it. I dig how…

2022 RPM Challenge song number five. Meh. Rhythm guitar in your right speaker is a Gibson SG. In the left as well as the lead is a Les Paul Standard. The amp for all tracks is a Fender Bassbreaker 15. Pedals for the rhythm tracks are…
