I should have left this one unfinished.
All guitar parts are a Gibson Les Paul Custom into a Fender Bassbreaker 15. No pedals this year, just plugged straight in.

2026 RPM Challenge idea number one becomes finished song number 13.
The word of the day is: Padding. I had this thought that the songs this year should all be on the long side. This one fit the bill. It could probably stand to have the run…

2026 RPM Challenge idea number seven becomes finished song number 12.
I'm not sure what to think of this one. I listen once and I think it's okay. I listen a second time and I think it's awful. The vocals are terrible, objectively, but everything…

2026 RPM Challenge song idea number 13 becomes finished song number five.
Kind of indifferent to this one. It's not the worst thing I've ever done. The hook section has a nice pep to it, I guess. I'm thinking it should fade out. Maybe if…

And here we go - Edith FINALLY gets it...
Actually, she's been getting it ever since I wrote it on the 29th May. I thought it would take a week or so, but it proved to be more of a fight than I was expecting.

Prior to the switch to the white UI I was having an issue where all of my uploads were marked as private and I couldn’t change them. I created a second account and moved on. Then after the white UI switch I found a couple of tracks had vanished so I moved everything back to this account and deleted v2.
