Another RPM Challenge post where I’m trying to show my creative work. My prior step in this process is here. You can still listen to last year’s songs here or here. To hear everybody else’s music, just click the Jukebox icon.
First came the Idea Fragments. Next were the Rough Songs. Then came the blood, sweat, and tears process of adding melody and lyrics. Here is the library for my resulting Demo Versions as lo-fi .mp3 files:
- Song 2 (Working Title: Big Love-Crumbs)
- Song 5 (WTs: Stolen Away, Independence, Fallen Love, Fuck and Fall)
- Song 8 (WT: Oskar Schell)
- Song 10 (WTs: Unimportant, Little Wing, Derivative, Drink Like Gatsby)
- Song 17 (WTs: Why Wear Gray, When You’re Good, Shine, Made For You)
- Song 20 (WTs: Suicide Bomber, Killing in the Name, Stay Away From My Family)
- Song 22 (WTs: Inner Demon, Go Away, Getting Over You)
- Song 24 (WT: Mislaid (The Teddybear Song))
- Song 25 (WTs: Another Brick, Another Brick in the Wall: Part 4, No Recess Behind The Wall)
- Song 26 (WTs: Little Changes, Oh Fuck.)
- Song 28 (WTs: Everything Good is Bad For You, Bad For You)
As of the 22nd, I’ve finished all eleven demo versions. Whew – exhausted. Comments are welcome, but under no circumstances are you allowed to say, “That one sounds like such-and-such-a-band or such-and-such-a-song.” At least not until everything is totally finished. And please don’t just tell me that something’s not perfect – yeah, I already know. Still working, and I’ll post the final results in March.
