Blah blah blah (cover version)
This is a pointless instrumental cover version of Meatbomb's recent a capella (one extreme to the other),
Blah blah blah for the MeFi Music challenge, so now you can sing along to the tune*!

bond
There was set before me a mighty hill,
And long days I climbed
Through regions of snow.
When I had before me the summit-view,
It seemed that my labour
Had been to see gardens
Lying at impossible distances

You Haven't Done Nothin' (Plump Mix)
Stevie Wonder's
You Haven't Done Nothin' backed by Plump DJ's Contact 00. Fortunately for me, they were in the same key. Unfortunately, they were roughly 30bpm apart. It's good to finally be remixing again though.

Thorns on the Heartstrings
Glitchy dark beats, with distorted synth and a little hardcore mixed in.

Fault Lines
Verse 1:
I heard a whisper on the waves
From across the galaxy
A tyrant dashed children on the rocks, I heard a rumor
Of genocide so far away

Kingsfold
The English folk tune
Kingsfold rendered very simply in synths. Incidentally, it is also the tune to the hymn
I Heard the Voice of Jesus Say, and almost identical to the Irish folk song,
Star of County Down. The melody occurs elsewhere in European folk music, I believe.

Royal milkshake (demo)
Speedy noodles
spacewreck
No one was really sure how I could've crashed in space, which is by nature, mostly empty. And when they found me, I had gnawed of most of my leg in order to survive, and not in much of a state to explain the events.

Don't Rely on the Radio
Calmer Days
Radiohead - "Nude (Strings Remix)"
The result here is spending a few free days on my couch with my violin and computer. I would love all comments/criticism from anybody, as this is something I'd like to continue experimenting with. (I guess if you like it, you can vote by clicking on the plus sign and pass the link onto anybody else).

No Questions
Track 10 of 10 from my RPM entry. The vocal melody during the verse-ish bits is maybe a little too simple, but the whole song for me is kinda justified by the breakdown, which is the best I think I've ever gotten my voice to sound when recorded.

A spazzy, ambient Gameboy tribute to Asia [the band?] and Leon Thomas.

The Simple Truth
One of my two favorites from my RPM entry. I didn't have time to get a good vocal take, so it's a first take. It's not that weak though (the effects I would've put on it regardless).

You Will Soon Be Dead
A real song! I kind of like the way it floats on before that ... off, bottom-of-the-well creepy harmony thing at the end. I dunno. 8 of 10 from my RPM entry.

Hay guys, look, I made a real song for once! It's pretty good too.

Rolling
Track 6 of 10 from my RPM08 entry. I think of all the underdeveloped tracks, this one's my favorite. A bit more time/work and it could be quite the heavy hitter.

Wasting Time
Yet another track from my RPM challenge entry (5 of 10, as a matter of fact). Named rather literally, as this song isn't terribly developed and was kept around simply because it filled up some space.

You Were Not Built To Last
As much of an experiment in Wacky Vocal Effects as it is a proper song, from my point of view. I like the end bit with the keyboard part and the strange cycling. I'm surprised at how many people I've shown my RPM challenge entry to really like this one (It's one of the underdeveloped ones, as far as I'm concerned).

KILLMDSLKTR
Second track from my RPM08 entry, and the first proper song. I find it kind of humorous and rather like the beat (and some, but not all of the heavy vocal processing). I couldn't quite get the chorus right but the creepy-processed-whisper-thing is a not-so-bad substitute.

A Race To The Ground
The first track from my entry for RPM08. Not much to say about it. Just a little 90-second mood-setter type thing.
