Another Rpm Reg is still sad ......
A sad song

About a woman who’s dead
Died in her sleep
alone in her bed…

Feel the warmth of the terror in the release of control
Tell yourself…

An Original Hojo Riff, soon to be a classic. Recorded on Pro Tools featuring a '67 Tele and an acoustic Larrivee. The drum track needs help, any suggestions?
This is a tune I picked up from alonetone a while back. Johnny did a piano version of "I'd Love to Change the World", and Michael Thomas from Cave Street added the outstanding vocals.
When Michael told me he was doing the vox on it, I wanted…

its many laws are the product of overpaid lawyer, judges, politicians, police, and pundits.
compulsory schooling streamlines personality traits,

A club-mix of my first electronical production from last year. I tried out some VST-Effects I haven't used before. The name "Kater" is german and can be translated into "hangover" and "male cat", probably i had an hangover when I produced it :)
A good friend and percussionist Norm Harris contributed percussion to this track – A Cast of Billions - so I ripped out all of the midi percussion and used Norm’s percussion, added a track where I speak Evan’s poem and did some remastering…
