RPM Challenge · Record Every Month Challenge — September 2022

ARTIST	TITLE	TAGS	ABOUT	LINK
A Herd of Turtles	Hannah	Jazz, Singer-Songwriter	This is the first time I put lyrics to one of my songs and the first time I recorded myself singing. I wrote the song to celibate my daughter Hannah’s wedding to her long time love Zach.
Aaron Parys	Distorted Configuration	Experimental	Started out going in a certain direction then ended up with this completely different than what I was expecting.. even made a video with it.. But it was a fun experiment	https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wc1VMJuNNqY
AMUC	Quantum Voyager	Electronic, Singer-Songwriter	I think I had the urban myth of 'backrooms' on my mind as I was writing the lyrics. There's something surreal about accidentally 'glitching' out of reality.	https://alonetone.com/amuc/tracks/quantum-voyager
Big Rips	Wellness Check	Indie, Punk	Depression stuff as per usual. Will probably clean up or lose the power tapping when it hits the album.
Black Bear Black Sheep	Jack Square's Theme	Electronic, Metal	A character theme song for a video game	https://alonetone.com/BillyBear/tracks/jack-square's-theme
Coyote Senate	Handwritten Letter After Many Quiet Years	Ambient, Folk	Trying to get back to a simpler format this month. Focusing on live loops, synth drones, and a pile of guitar pedals	https://soundcloud.com/coyotesenate/handwritten-letter-after-many-quiet-years
David Thorley	Kamikaze Pilot	Blues, Jazz	Another messy song, written and recorded in haste. Wobbles out of control a couple of times. Next month's will get a bit more care and attention (I hope)...	https://alonetone.com/dalwynth/tracks/kamikaze-pilot
Evil Suitcase	Beach Crowd	Pop	Originally I was aiming for a much different kind of song, but it went off the rails at some point and I ended up with this. Additional vocals by Patricia Wake. Should have probably called it (We Are) The Beach Crowd as a nod to Motorhead............
Glytek Audio	Plesiosaur	Electronic, Dance	Electro-ey Acid, or Acid-ey Electro. Made with MPC One & TD-3.
Griza	Manatee	Metal	A song originally written about looming extinction at the hands of the endless greed of the human race, though it is instrumental, which makes that hard to get across. Two more REM tracks and I'll release them as an EP and get to work on my second album.
Jai Mohan	hush/ sing (lead me to the open grave)	Punk, Pop		https://jaimohan.bandcamp.com/album/hush-sing-single
lil bits	Lil Bits and the never ending gravitational pull towards insanity	Ambient, Electronic	Live coding session in TidalCycles	https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a7xWqz7J60o&list=PL83981dz4WdCTiMzgqwyzx-7sND6C07Pv
LR Friberg	Oder Endlich Zu Spüren	Ambient, Electronic
Luna Ponderosa	Not So Fast, Billy Ray!	Singer-Songwriter, Traditional	Here's a Western song, inspired by the RPG adventure of the same name.
Malady of Knots & fencepost	The Price of Stone 08 : The Devil's Causeway [edit]	Experimental, Field Recording
mellow wınter	before the waves get warm	Classical, Ambient	Dreamy kalimba duet	https://soundcloud.com/user-145616674/before-the-waves-get-warm
Mikey Hogan	Idling	Singer-Songwriter	Feeling like I'm not going anywhere or achiving anything. Having Covid isn't helping. But I found a nice chord progression.
Nimbostrata	Soilani	Ambient, Electronic
Prince Joseph Dassah	Make Believe	Indie, Pop	Sorry about this track being corrupt at the August listening party. I had to resend the track this month. Hope you enjoy it. The Album therapy is out now on Audiomack, you use the link to the song to listen to the entire album. I also co-produced this track🧡✌️	https://audiomack.com/princejosephdassah/song/make-believe
Rob Parker	Keep it Together	Rock	It's pretty awful but it exists so it's a win.	https://alonetone.com/robertjames1971/tracks/keep-it-together
Salman Ahad	Entrance to Salimor	Classical, Soundtrack	Wanted to make something inspired by the great soundtrack to Rings of Power, the new Lord of the Rings show. I took an arp pattern from the show and then used that as a starting point for this piece.
Savory Flakes	Guidebook	Rock	September is gone but it still haunts us! First time using actual speakers to mix, an ancient boom box might be better than fancy headphones. Superb Drumming by my constant pal Mike.	https://on.soundcloud.com/jtSUC
Schmex	Toodew Medew	Synth, Field Recording	A stroll.	https://soundcloud.com/ro-steiner/toodew-medew?si=d2b8c8686334406288fa04814de191fa&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing
T.Z1	Scorched	Electronic	Instrumental song made in garageband using various guitar, synth, bass and drum loops. Added some special fx thru bandlab app. Thx for listening!	https://soundcloud.com/tzonez/scorch?si=a109caf790e944e79e1e5ab04cc845b3&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing
TeeKayEn	Number	Dance, Electronic	WIP Juke/Bass Track
The Vague Miracles	Pieces of Babylon	Synth, Rock	just a little ditty about trying to get from earth to heaven when god doesn't want you to be there...
The Wizards of Vomit	hip. hip. hooray.	Guitar, Indie	This song celebrates guitars sounding like saxophones	https://thewizardsofvomit.bandcamp.com/track/hip-hip-hooray
Thorsten Nesch	This will hurt a little	Singer-Songwriter, Country	I record 1 EP a month thanks to access to a shared studio space. THIS WILL HURT A LITTLE, we all been there.	https://nesch.bandcamp.com/album/this-will-hurt-a-little
WXO	Here In Time But Nowhere In Space	Ambient, Traditional	The best way to learn an instrument is to write music to play on said instrument, so this piece serves the purpose of learning some guitar. I used real instruments as the basis for the rest of it. The beats are the stock built in ones from my PSR 72 Yamaha keyboard but recorded on the mic instead of through a cable. I use almost exclusively a cheap Dolphin Hammond Organ for the keyboards here. Some MIDI supports my vocals; I thought it would be cool to sing alongside a Vocaloid. The result is a relaxed yet raw and dark sound. Simple, but intimate.	https://wxokeys.bandcamp.com/track/here-in-time-but-nowhere-in-space
