Episode 51 - Project: 52 Songs -"Sounds Feels Is Good"(Song51)

Sometimes things are just darn good. You say something and the person you're with says"Sounds Good!"- then you think and say"...Feels Good". Then you realize, hey it IS good. That, my friends, is the inspiration for week 51's song. It's about being set and feeling good. If you're not there, I hope you get there. If you're there, I hope you stay there!Musician Artist D.

Episode 52 - Project: 52 Songs -"End Up Here"(Song52)

This is it folks. The final song in this project. How fitting that I call it"End Up Here", eh? I decided to end on an acoustic and vocal only track. No big production. Just pure essessence. It's a tune about fullfilled dreams and desires. About ending up where you always hoped you would. It's been a fun year and I thank you all for your attention and support.

Episode 50 - Project: 52 Songs -"self Celebrity"(Song50)

Your self probably rules the roust, huh? Makes you doubt, makes you mad, makes you hate? This song is about that. Because folks, that's your 'self', not your"Self". For if you lived by Self direction, you'd love everyone and everything. But it's cool ya'll. After all, we're only human. And we do the best we can do. So don't sweat it. Deep huh?

Episode 49 - Project: 52 Songs -"Cross My Heart"(Song49)

Well folks you get another slightly"country"tinged diddy this week. This tune came about in to existence in about 24 hours. (a true goal of this song a week project) While strumming around for an interesting chord progression I stumbled on the melody and the phrase Cross My Heart popped into my head. Then I thought of the saying"cross my heart and hope to die"and I thought dam, I want to cross my heart and survive! So I started down that road and then it evolved into a song about life and love w...

Episode 48 - Project: 52 Songs -"Humility"(Song48)

This week is a song that I finished for the RPM Challenge in February. It's a piece I have been incubating on for years called"Humility". Through the years I've not been able to come up with an acceptable verse melody. But this month it hit me. Also the lyrics had been elusive. It must be all my spiritual studies of late. I've discoverd - or realized - that humility is a good thing actually. That when you have a troublesome situation it is helpful to admit to humility that you don't know the ans...

Episode 47 - Project: 52 Songs -"Long Hair Is Back"(Song47)

Are you self concsious about your hair? Lord knows I have been through the years. From bushy little boy, to long on the sides, to new wave 80's, to that"body wave"perm I'll always regret. Anyhow, I couldn't help but notice on all the young men how long hair is back. Mainly long hair on the sides of the head, over the ears. All shaggy like. Like when I was in school a few years ago. (ha ha). So what better to write a song about?! Pavement had their hit song Cut Your Hair (that was it wasn't it) b...

It's turned out to be about how great something is, and how great it could continue to be. The miracle"grows", if you will.

Episode 46 - Project: 52 Songs - "This Stud Muffin Loves You" (Song46)

I've yet to write a hill billy shuffle like song. Until now! Inspiration struck and I realized that I'm a stud. AND I'm in love. Well, seriously folks, when you feel good and you're feeling good you should sing it. And so this little ditty evolved. I tried singing it regular voice like. But it just wasn't working. So after seeing an alt country band band last night, I tried a little twang in my voice, and eureka! There it was. This one's pretty much unlike any I've done yet in the 52 Song Projec...

Episode 44 - Project: 52 Songs - "So Near" (Song44)

Happy New Year! I hope you got some goodies for the holidays. Here's a fun little tune I ended up calling "So Near". The inspiration is from the feeling of being close to someone special. Simple lyrics that somehow say it all. Recorded in a stripped down manner and low, almost old INXS sounding vocals. Also an Atomsplit unreleased demo on this podcast of "Dreaming of You".

Well I didn't think I could come up with a decent holiday song this year. After the two excellent ones last year! :-)But inspiration struck. Yes, I was on an outing with Team Husky and the phrase Hey Holiday swooped into my head. And I realized how much I was looking forward to it. Really for one particular reason more than others. So, read the lyrics, listen, and see if you can figure out what I mean. And I sincerely hope there's many of you out there who feel the same.Oh, also btw, I got a new...

Episode 42 - Project: 52 Songs - "Walls No Celing" (Song42)

This song is the result of another conversation I had this week with an associate. She said "it's got walls but no ceiling". Eureka! The phrase was like lightning to my brain as excellent song material. (it often happens like this folks, where I hear a combination of words and my brain goes COOL WORDS - USE IN SONG). So I sat down to write it and it became a song about having safety and security, but also the ability to expand one's horizons. Kind of like parents who take care of you and also en...

Episode 38 - Project: 52 Songs - "She Cuts, I Bleed" (Song38)

A Sometimes when I sit down to write the lyrics to these little ditties I just get in a stream-of-consciousness mode where all these little thoughts that have been on my mind or in my crazy dreams just comes out as lyrics. That's the case with this one. Started out as a relationship song but then the verses took on a strange poetic life of their own. Speaking to physical ailments among other things. So, I suppose the underlying theme of this one is bad love, babies, bad love. Musician Artist D. ...

Episode 37 - Project: 52 Songs - "Old Rockers, New Records" (Song37)

I put the pretension aside this week for a thoughtful piece called "Old Rockers, New Records". Have you happened to notice how a number of "classic" old rockers are putting out new records these days. Like Bob Segar, Tom Petty, Robert Plant, etc. Thing is the radio won't play them. They play the old safe music these folks made 20-30 years ago. Just plain frustrating. Maybe there is a satellite station or something that plays them? I guess you are just supposed to buy or download the music and en...

Episode 39 - Project: 52 Songs -"Stupid Sh**"(Song39)

Now how do I explain this one? A failed attempt at social commetary song that ended up being a novetly song? That's about it. There's good intention and kernel here but as usual, when I try TOOOO hard to make it sound good it ends up backfiring. So I had to trick it out and put it over the top. The theme is really an expression of all the stupid shit the average person sees on TV. Or in daily life for that matter. There are some good lyrics in it though.Musician Artist D.

This week you get a full production demo. The tune is called "Trick of Time" and it's got a nice big chorus lyric of "We all fall down" that speaks to being hopeful after being let down. The kernel of this tune goes back many many years musically to early work with my songwriting cousin Jeremey in Tampa Bay. The riff was always one of my favorites but the song never got finished or recorded. So, I thought I'd get it out, dust it off, and finish it up for fun. It's very Cure like with the driving...

Two sensitive songs in a row! Like OMG, what is happeing to me? I got a lot of great feedback on last week's tune, "Thick2Thin". If you didn't hear it yet, go check it out here. Anyhow, this week's sad ballad is called "Next to This". Inspired by true abstract life. Without drama we would have no art right? Have you ever asked yourself, "What else is there?". That's a key line in the chorus in this one. Overall it sounds like an old singer songwriter balladeer somewhat. Enjoy my friends, enjoy M...

This week you get a sensitive little number I decided to call "Thick2Thin". The weird spelling be yet another homage to Prince. The song speaks to the dilution of a relationship through time. Typically early on you might call one "thick". But then as time takes it's toll. And reality takes it toll. And the Law of Rhythm takes it toll. Etc, etc, etc. You become "thin". You all know what I'm talking about. Think about how many "dead friends" you have out there. Such is the way I suppose. For the e...

It's Mr. Spock's theme song. Just kidding. Not sure why that phrase popped into my head when struming the chord progression that made this song come to live. There's no Star Trek references. It's actually more of a uh, spiritual song I think. Secretly about larger life being. I won't give it all away though. Production wise this one's not half bad. Drum machines and singing cleans. Layers and layers of chocolaty goodness. It's my hope that you enjoy it. And oh yeah, USE HEADPHONES to listen. Mus...

I'm currently reading Tolstoy's "Confession". So far it's really depressing. Though I was told it ends hopefully. So this week's song is about depression more or less. When something happens that you consider bad or upsetting. You don't know what to do. You ask people for help..."If You Were Me What Would You Do?" . Also when you get input from others you may at first feel defensive and frustrated. But the ideas - if they are true and good - slowly gain acceptance. At least that's how it is for ...
