Hey Tim I'm very happy to hear you are still writing tunage my brotha. I have always dug your styling. Keep up the cool tracks!
Peace,
Rob (RC Andrews)
you tell me what you want
you tell what you need
i cant give you nothing honey
but this pretty little seed
where has the sun gone
and is it gone forever
will it come back someday
should we just give it some time
i ask you what…
the sun rises every morning
i hear those feet upon the floor
im pretty sure that you are beside me
everythings the same as it was before
our son jumps in bed and lys between us
holds us together as the light drifts in
you are the flower of my…
i am thinking about words tonight
they can be hard as nails
they-can be as shapeless as water
they can break your heart
they can hang like a chain
hold you up for years
cause you to think twice
take away your fears
you are falling in love…
i saw the curtains changing color
i watched the sun room come alive
i have been sitting in this rocker
wondering when you might arrive
i am hoping for redemption
cant stand the way i feel
i know it is only passing through me
rivers flood…
People
maybe, maybe im in trouble
maybe there is someone out there that is mad at me
i know that when i see it in your eyes
when i here it in your crys
your in trouble too , ...
people are all the same it doesnt matter
somehow we learn to…
i am thinking about words tonight
they can be hard as nails
they-can be as shapeless as water
they can break your heart
they can hang like a chain
hold you up for years
cause you to think twice
take away your fears
you are falling in love…
well i have a special spot in my heart for arizona. i also have headphones that fade in and out at times so your mix is messing with my head. i realize it is you and not me. i see the heat has effected you as well. the horns work well. the choral thing at the end is sweet
thanks

Album: How the Aviator Sees the Rainbow
Year: RPM Challenge 2008
Pour vous Tess.
Is there a ghost in these hills?
Something to run from
I've given way to cheap thrills
Problems have just begun
I walk alone, sink like a stone in…
gypsies in the night around a fire. you show upload your words and put them under the "about" tab. i am not always sure what you are saying. i like to know what people are saying. call me paranoid!!!! funny little organ in the background
wonderful job
tim
this is my first year in the rpm challenge as well. you are right it was a lot of fun. i miss it. February went by so fast.
this one is pretty dynamic. great bass sound. i find the scream sounds during the rappy chorus pretty interesting. cool guitar at the end

Using the fox trot beat from the 1958 record album "Rhythm Accompaniment", with the composer on all other instruments. Written and recorded in February 2009 for the RPM Challenge.
this works really well. i can easily see myself ......walking! birds on that wire. i like the way you have chosen to arrange it with the subtle builds

I'm working on a March RPM... it is "record per month" after all, is it not? So, this month I plan to expand on some ideas with glubotic... I hope to make the album a full hour.
this song was inspired from an ee cummings poem. it was composed for rpm 2009.
lyrics:
i'll tell you a dream i had once
up in the sky blue everything
flying away a kite on a string
i didn't have anything
i was cool you were warm…
great mix . you should publish your words under the "about" tab. it would be so good to read along. it really is important and you will get more folks to liaten.....really
this is a really good song i am digging your metafore

My song about the hazards of the Missouri River.
A snag is an above water branch and a sawyer is a below water log or branch. Hence, "Tom Sawyer," from Mark Twain (Samuel Clemens).
Comments on tim mcfate's stuff
i can get you the other versions. for me most of the time it is a matter of whittling the recording down, finding the silence among the sound,
Honest, heartfelt, and beautiful to boot. Nice...
