I know, you think I've completely lost it. This is actually a cover tune. Originally done by Wall of Voodoo around 1979. I did it from memory and ear, so I'm not sure if I got the notes or the Key right. It don't matter though, It was fun.
I…
This is a filler piece for this cool new CD I'm working on. I got this Clint movie thing working pretty good :) Think of it as our hero horsebackin' it across the plains in the land of the big sky.
I think the piano has a bit of Robert Nichols…
Hi folks,
It's good to back after RPM and the blackout of 2010.
A couple firsts here. I recorded this 100% with the computer. I never plugged in to a computer before.
I've always used a Roland VS machine and burnt my
songs/tracks to SCSI…
Cool track Geas!! you will be churnin out the tracks now with your new technology, cant wait to hear what you do with it!!.
p.s. try not to loose that live feel!!

Last track for RPM 2010, and by far my favorite of the batch…

Just never got this one sounding like I envisioned it…
This is sort of a skeleton version of this song...I have an intro in mind, but don't have time to write it right now. So named because it's primarily in 7/4.
Post RPM jammin'. I don't feel much like cleaning up after RPM. Not yet anyway. I think my little Casio took a beaten and went out of tune. I did this arrangement with just the Casio, guitars and
harmonica, hence the annoying piano and strings…
Not originally intended as an acoustic song...but I couldn't get the big riff at the end to sound right with big distorted guitars, and then I realized on acoustics it might sound like it had a little Days Of The New influence.
Track 9 from…
The "chorus" riff started off with me trying to rip off "Shallow" by Porcupine Tree. Don't think I'm really in PT territory anymore though.
Track 7 from "They Are Killers"
I guess I knew this would happen. Talk about creating one's own reality Sheeeeesh. End of the month and my pen has been re-fueled and I added some vox to this one, plus some lead guitar, and a bit of synth strings. I also took a shot at some…

Well, song 10 finally. A bit on the heavy side, some odd FX, strange vox, an Ibanez, The ever present harmonica, and some help from Illegal Alien Autopsy.
This was the first song I tracked for RPM. But, since my pen has run out of ink this month…
We wrote it and recorded the basic bits in December, 2009, but I didn't add vocals for quite some time. It's a sketch of something that will end up on our second LP, whenever that comes into fruition.
For now, here it be.
