Love the new songs!!!
Saw this and thought you might be a perfect fit...
We are looking for a female singer for the album Adeliane. All infos are here: http://shadowsofesteren.blogspot.fr/2017/03/looking-for-female-singer-for-album.html
Always great to hear your voice! good to see you crossed the rpm finish line again. I think it's hard sometimes to retrofit lyrics but you did a great job. The flow is really good and goes perfectly.
With huge thanks to the awesomeinfinity Jake, Wrinkled Shirt, who let me use his gorgeous instrumental track "Gaza".
The sun left the city, from the ground
Moonlight woke up, falling down
Why are you scared, free as a bird
Now that the heat…
Terrible recording due to my old studio set up dying, but a nice keepsake of just how bad things became before the rebuild.
Lyrics by Brent Kinder.
With piano by Igor Alexeev.
With music written and performed by Soundsmith Kamachi.
It was the last day of RPM and he asked me to write a lullaby for a track called Cornucopia. Very much enjoyed how easily this one flowed. That's my mum, Bee Mathis, adding class to the…
An ironic title (and to a large extent the upbeat feel of the melody) as life was not aligned with joyful calm when I wrote it. However, I'm proud of this; it's not complicated and doesn't overstay its welcome. First of my songs to feature AI piano!
An experiment with Damage 2. It was going to be part of a larger album but didn't make the cut. It's a song about the subtle experiences we all have and somehow connect with each other in one way or another. The song is more about that connection…
Wonderful to have you back on alonetone - and hear new stuff from you.
This is beautiful - I love the way you change the feeling up throughout, and those are absolutely stunning vocals...damn.
Another song that never made the cut on a recent album, but I plan on finishing it later. Drums were written by a friend of mine after I gave him a very rough drum idea.
Great to hear this one again! I'm (still) working on an album with the brilliant JST - he's just ridiculously good at everything. :) But so long as he's doing it on the same album as me, I'm okay with it.
Tworegs visited and we couldn't help but get at least one colaboration song done in the studio. I wish we would have had time to get some other songs he wrote in SF recorded in my studio but I was out of town during part of his stay, and to be…
Ahh like a lovely cup of tea. I was thrilled to bits when you also signed up this year, and although I failed miserably, you knocked it out of the park...again. Thanks for giving me more breezy music to laugh at the world by. Next year, let's do it again. Any physical CDs this year??
Brilliant song - and you make it all sound so effortless. Fresh, cool, quirky (I'm told by my teenage daughters that "quirky" no longer means what I think it means, but they're wrong), just g-o-o-d m-u-s-i-c.
RPM 2024 track 7
A good friend of mine has a Samoyed. This is a song about him.
I was hoping for a kiiind of Cheap Suit Serenaders feel. Acoustic guitar, a 1920s tenor banjo and a brand new mandolin.
This gets a strange emotional reaction from me because I can't imagine you to be anything other than mischievous and irrepressible. But...this is Americana Tango...and I love both. Weirdly though, this takes me to the leafy walkways of Rome and now I want a cappuccino and to send you flowers.
Dean Martin probably wants to record this. I can hear a version with the Hollywood treatment in my head. But this is cooler. You infuse fresh air in everything you record.
Smiling in the first few seconds. This is the Gumbo I love. Lies and Tales is one of my absolute favourites RPM albums of all time, so the bar is pretty high - but this is toe tapping classic Gumbo awesomeness. Yep yip.
Comments on Sister Savage's stuff
Delicate and also dynamic (and powerful at times), builds and flows nicely.
Yummy, The music and voice blend perfectly
❤

WOW !!! A perfect balance of poetry and artistic expression. Beautiful Tess!
I remember Circles -- this is a nice 'slight return' of the melody from it.
I'm blown away by the sound production here. (And the vocals are pretty darn good as well.)
...love your warts. :)
Circles was always one of my favorites. Think I like this even better.
Wow! This is stunning!
Good good that's beautiful.
Oh, this is pure magic.
Always great to hear your voice! good to see you crossed the rpm finish line again. I think it's hard sometimes to retrofit lyrics but you did a great job. The flow is really good and goes perfectly.
Excellet as always! Great track.
Enjoying this again :) Poignant and funny
It's working well i'll be back for more Bravo!!
Hi...hope you are well...miss you and your lovely voice...hope to collab again someday.... V
Still like this version :-)
Great beat and as usual top vocals
Wow the Vocals are at once symphonic and hauting

AI piano..? That should be depressing but it's a pretty nice flavour - lovely breezy feel on this beautiful day.

Class.
"Didn't make the cut"...you're hilarious. This is brilliant. I love the dizzying synth line.
Great to hear this one again! I'm (still) working on an album with the brilliant JST - he's just ridiculously good at everything. :) But so long as he's doing it on the same album as me, I'm okay with it.
Dreamy...drifting away on vaisvil clouds... Sounds like flowers opening.
Fun breezy collab!
Liking the moodiness here! But where have all your other tracks gone, Johnno?! Good to hear from you. Hope you're well and happy.
Still love.

Moody, Wolfy, Sliiick. (Album opener vibes, imho)

Absolute classic Gumbo. Light and breezy, but with a bittersweet (dark even) undertone...how do you do that!?
Super sweet! Love the mandolin and you definitely achieved the feeling you were aiming for. *googles Samoyed*
Oooh yes!! Sultry! Rhythmic! Loving all the layers, all the twists and turns.
Oof yeah, more tango! Lovely harmonies and dreamy guitar.
Mischievous and irrepressible. The prosecution rests.
