This never turned out like I wanted it to be because I could not find a real drummer and bassist for it. But at least Alina was kind enough to play the lead guitar…
Thanks everybody for your comments on this and other songs of mine! It's good to know that there are a couple of folks out there who like some of my songs. :)
Feel free to criticize though! We all cannot get better without honest, constructive criticism.

This celtic folk piece is a collaboration with lyricist Donna Devine.

Like "Wish" this song was an attempt by me to put a free-form poem by Grant…
Have you made an effort to be in touch with the film makers in your part of the world? Your state probably has a film comission. If you haven't already, I suggest you do and then begin to find about what is in the works in your state and offer to submit music to the college and independent film makers.
I had this tune in my head for years before I finally sat down and recorded a quick draft of it. I would like to record this with real instruments (acoustic guitar + electric lead guitar).
Anybody interested in helping me?
This is the new version!

Just a little rock song.
Steffen, You have a really great bunch of musical friends. Are these people you have in your real world or do write with people from all over? What is your process? Do you swap .wav files?

This was one of my first compositions ever (I started writing songs in 2004/2005). I don't have the original audio seps any more, just this MP3 file, so I cannot do a decent remix. And I'm too lazy to re-do it all from scratch. :)

When I composed this little instrumental song I did not use very good sounds for it, and I did not yet know (or bother) how to edit the midi sounds to make them sound better.
This is just a quick remix using the same old sounds. I don't think…
Vocals: Sabrina Doughty

This is the 2012 remix.
This song was based on a free-form lyric by Grant D. McLeman from Scotland. Quite a challenge ... :)
Final version
One of my heroes. Willie McTell was blind from birth and travelled all over the south in the thirties at a time when many people would never go more than 20 miles from their home.
Plus nobody sings the blues quite like him…
Lyrics by Brian McCloskey in somewhat of a suprise collab. Musically a kind of feel-good soul-pop. I quite like how this turned out, and nominated it my prefered RPM-track this year.
New version uploaded 12 Dec 2010.
A slow, scaled down, bluesy song with tremolo guitar, soaring organ and close up vocals.
Don't Ever
(Words & Music by Jana Persson)
I wanna hide no more
And I wanna close the door
Don't ever leave me
Never decieve me
Don't ever…
This song is a tribute to the slick Californian music branded "Westcoast", that was all the rage back around the turn of the 1980's.

This is an older song and hey, you'll finally get to hear me sing badly! This was under my old name Piscean Dream so I couple of you may or may not have heard this before. Thanks for listening!
This song is dedicated to my van...the Pumpkin.
She took me all the way from Winnipeg to St. John's, Newfoundland. On the way home she died on the 40 East between Quebec City and Montreal where i had to let her go.
Oh Pumpkin you have been good…
A simple song...
Take a hold of the persons hand next to you and let these words pass from your center to theirs.
be blessed as you listen.
You are valued
you are valued
you are special to me
The old tin geetar...
Did this one sometime in 2009 on a Boss MBR. I'd recently joined what became Songcrafters.org and PJ (Wiley) posted a bass/drum track for us ubiquitous blues guitarists to solo over.
I decided to go a different route…
Acoustic blues. Recorded in 2005. I was trying to record something else, can't remember what, and the missus was going out. She had cyclist Lance Armstong's book, or was talking about it. Sounded like a great title for a song as well as his book…
Please don't mind the 20 seconds of silence...use it to enter in.
From one being to another...
"I will open my eyes to you
even when a fear awaits your gaze
please don't hesitate to look inside
for I won't hide
I will be honest…
Rock instrumental. Recorded Christmas 2008.
I'd struggled with a DAW. I'd stopped recording. And then my lovely wife got me a Boss MBR for Christmas. I thought this little thing the size of a fag-packet would be a nice "scratch-pad" songwriting…
A cover of Larry Wallis's fine ditty (it's always been one of my favourite Dr Feelgood songs).
This was my second recording with my Boss MBR, recorded early 2009. It confirmed for me that I was a "standalone recorder" kind of guy, and there was…
Pop-rock tale about a character in a novel that I fancied. Recorded in 2009 on a Boss MBR.

Comments on stoman's stuff
Love this ..beautiful....excellent lyrics...love it
Another good one Steffen! Love the arrangement and the lyrics. The most Beatles sounding song I have heard of yours.

Hello, I just signed up today, and wanted to drop in and say hello to you.... This is a nice collab that I've enjoyed since I first heard it... LG
love it agree with James........perfect as it is
I can't imagine what your standards are topping out at if you apologize for this mix. This is beautiful.
oooo!
Have you made an effort to be in touch with the film makers in your part of the world? Your state probably has a film comission. If you haven't already, I suggest you do and then begin to find about what is in the works in your state and offer to submit music to the college and independent film makers.
If I can figure out how to download this track I will add rhythm guitars.
Steffen, You have a really great bunch of musical friends. Are these people you have in your real world or do write with people from all over? What is your process? Do you swap .wav files?
Kicks ass. Love it. Wish I could do stuff like this. Sooooo poppy!
Beautiful! If this was one of your first you certainly got off to a wonderful start!
Love the guitars on this track!
Love the taste of Paris here in the summer. Especially in August when it's pretty empty. A most romantically pretty track.
beautiful tune........wonderful playing.....
incredible.
A cello with this would be so nice...or a whole bed of strings to undergird that melody.
Very nice. So clear and clean. Nice voice too. I see you collaborate with other musicians. Feel free to ask me to do background vocals.
Awesome. This reminds me of something from the Ghost in the Shell soundtrack. (I really dig that soundtrack.)
Brina really has a great voice. Very well done once again, my friend!

Wonderful folk music. Great listen!
Man, you have the right touch.
Very pretty. I'm downloading all your songs to listen thoroughly again later. And again. And again ... :)
Nice song and superb production.
Great music, my friend!
Wow, you still sound pro! Very nice music. Thanks for sharing!
Nothing bad about that voice. And the music is pretty good too.
This is a classy song, Geir. Love the rhythm.
You have such a wonderful voice, Rob. And the songwriting and arrangement are superb. Favorited and downloaded! :)
Very nice job, guys. Great listen.
A worried warrior maybe. ;) :P I must admit that this is not my preferred style, but you do it so well ...
Catchy and beautiful. Great job!
By now I thank I can download your tracks to my mp3 player without even listening. :) Very, very nice.
Pretty like the other songs. And your last name is a perfect attribute for your voice.
A fine little blues. When I hear you do such vocals I'm always afraid you'll lose your voice! ;)
You tell me I can handle different styles? It's you who really can! Great guitar playing!
The latest two comments were by me. I did not realize that I was not logged in. Stupid old me. ;)
We owe your wife something. :)
I don't know the original, but this one is pretty good.
Great 70s vibe to my ears. Give us more! :)
