The Tones
The End The End
2-20-11 Last song from the Feb 2011 RPM Challenge. Done quickly, a cross between New Order - The Pet Shop Boys and what you find in the bottom of a trash can. All sounds done with the Kore Free Player.

I'm Afraid I'm Afraid
2-19-11 RPM 2011 Song 9. Quite similar to my others and bit a formula for the Tones, but works overall.

Never Let Me Go Never Let Me Go
2-13-11 Song 8 for RPM 2011 Inspired by the two movies I watched Saturday night. Never Let Me Go for the title and Tamara Drewe which had a song playing over the end credits that I based (copied) the song idea from.

Girl Who Loves Too Much Girl Who Loves Too Much
02-12-11 Song 7 for RPM 2011. Trying to be different. I spent forever fussing with the vocals for the end of the track but gave up in the end and left it as is.

02-08-11 RPM#5. This was the second version of the song, knocked up in a night after I abandoned the first attempt. A simple tune, hopefully good enough for my legions of fans :)

Dressed In Black Dressed In Black
The 4th track written for 2011 RPM. The feel of the song started from a Hold Steady song but I decided to use the group written lyrics that were written as part of a Home Made Hit Show (www.homemadehitshow.com)

Bad World Bad World
11-02-09 This song was written (in demo form) by Albert Forssell. I produced it, I used his bass and guitar riff but did the rest of the instrumentation myself. More of your typical Tones style pop/rock with a dance feel.

Sept 2009: An attempt to throw song energetic punkishness into my songs, written and recorded fast, rough edges galore.

May 2009 - A new tune from The Tones. Played everything myself on this one, sang it out and didn't double the vocals for once.

04-10-09 Dave Criddle on bass (funky bass at that) a little guitar and backing vocals. Everything else by me. One or two people out there know what this is about.

Make Her Mine Make Her Mine
Feb 2009 - A song done by Dave Criddle and I (super group = The Tiddlers). I wrote the original song and had the idea and sang my part. Dave did all the music and mixing etc.

The Sleeping Man The Sleeping Man
02-17-09 After laboring for months and abandoning / working on, so many songs I just wrote and recorded this one in about 3 hours (I think that's the magic key). Features Zoetrope on the S3 synth organ during the chorus.
