I could never put into words how much this band has not only influenced my own writing, but how it has enabled me to see how music can evolve and where it can go for any artist, if they are willing to push those boundaries. This is my take on Climbing Up the Walls, from 1997’s OK Computer. https://www.richmmusic.com/music/timeisrunningout monthly 0.5 2022-01-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f82feabfbea6555010cb237/1643136156885-06QH037N3POK8XFOTRP5/RichM_SocialVisualizer-1x1-TimeisRunningOut.jpg MUSIC - Time is Running Out (Muse Cover) - Time is Running Out Released 2021 As huge Muse fan from the first time I heard Origin of Symmetry, it wasn’t until I heard Time is Running Out on their follow up record, Absolution. I demoed many different versions of this song before landing on something I felt was different enough with a solid groove and vibe. I hope you enjoy this take on a great song. https://www.richmmusic.com/music/breakingnews monthly 0.5 2022-01-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f82feabfbea6555010cb237/1643134920968-3DDXR43XZM7NRUVT8MQM/RichM_SocialVisualizer-1x1-SINGLES_002.jpg MUSIC - Breaking News (Single) - Breaking News (Single) Released 2021 Breaking News is a song that was kicking around for many years before I finally decided to share it with the world. I liken the song to that of the Foo Fighters “Learn to Fly”; upbeat, fun with a clear story line that can be interpreted in many ways. https://www.richmmusic.com/music/breakmyheart monthly 0.5 2022-01-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f82feabfbea6555010cb237/1643134483760-JQJCNKDMXJUHCZX2HUIT/RichM_DuaLipa-BreakMyHeart.jpg MUSIC - Break My Heart (Dua Lipa Cover) - Break My Heart Released 2021 This is my take on Dua Lipa’s hit song Break My Heart from her record Future Nostalgia. https://www.richmmusic.com/music/rising-piano-version monthly 0.5 2023-05-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f82feabfbea6555010cb237/ab1dba51-33d0-4b86-a1ee-fe6edcd30197/FeaturedOn_January2022.jpg MUSIC - Rising (Piano Version) - Make it stand out Featured on Apple Playlists https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f82feabfbea6555010cb237/1643133953173-G2NQC6SMMVREKZ5795F3/Rising_AlbumArt_PianoVersion.jpg MUSIC - Rising (Piano Version) - Rising (Piano Version) Released September 2021 Rising (Piano Version) is a stripped down version of the title track from the Rising (EP) released in July 2021. https://www.richmmusic.com/music/rising-ep monthly 0.5 2022-01-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f82feabfbea6555010cb237/e1e3866e-e0e1-4c7b-855d-50090d76b877/Featured+Playlists_NewInRock.jpg MUSIC - Rising (EP) - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f82feabfbea6555010cb237/1643132565419-VHDELUMZZZFYPDPQ419P/Rising_AlbumArt.jpg MUSIC - Rising (EP) - Rising (EP) Released July 2021 Rising is a collection of four songs that tackle important, ongoing issues we face as a community. Easing into a heavy and reflective experience, the EP opens with ‘Holiday’, an intimate reflection on personal time and space, asking whether ‘getting away’ from a daily work schedule is enough or if it is even possible through our endless connectedness. Putting our online lives into the fold, ‘What a Waste of Time’ follows with a direct condemnation of hate and ignorance; ideologies bread out of fear; fear of being seen as weak if one were to change their perspective for the better. ‘Messed Up’ is a stark reminder of privilege that so many have. Messed Up asks what we can do, suggesting that challenging and often frustrating conversations need to happen at the family table with loved ones. The EP wraps with its title track ‘Rising’ which is Rich’s love song to Mother Earth. “The idea that ‘We need the earth to survive, but the earth does not need us’ has resonated with me for years. I am reminded that though I am one person, there are things that I could be doing day-to-day to reduce my footprint on this earth. There is a reason why all of us feel better mentally and physically when we step outside. This place is beautiful, but it is eroding at the hands of our greed for more.” https://www.richmmusic.com/music/degrees-of-isolation-acoustic-sessions monthly 0.5 2022-01-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f82feabfbea6555010cb237/1643137385406-ATCVEAJE6C5XUQBTQ1B5/DOI_AlbumArt-AcousticSessions.png MUSIC - Degrees of Isolation: Acoustic Sessions - Degrees of Isolation: Acoustic Sessions Released February 2021 On the heels of releasing my first EP of songs in over 8 years, I decided to record some very raw, live-off-the-floor versions. Besides, what else was I suppose to do in a pandemic? https://www.richmmusic.com/music/ill-take-it-from-here-single monthly 0.5 2022-01-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f82feabfbea6555010cb237/1643136635314-UD1JPYSFDCSNAMNAXQO3/RichM_SocialVisualizer-1x1-SINGLES_001.jpg MUSIC - I'll Take It From Here (Single) - I’ll Take It From Here (Single) Released March 2021 The music for this song in particular was written almost 8 years prior to finalizing it. For me, it was difficult to find a story that would fit the overall mood of the song. However, as many songs draw on raw emotions, there was a short period of time were I lost a lot of close friends, family, colleagues and acquaintances to various diseases. It was in this moment that I decided to re-look at this song and write about the strength it takes to fight such challenges head on, knowing that for many, it was a losing battle. https://www.richmmusic.com/music/onmyway monthly 0.5 2022-01-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f82feabfbea6555010cb237/732b39a1-48d4-4645-b54b-6db628909077/RichM_OnMyWay_2022.jpg MUSIC - On My Way (Single) - On My Way Released January 27, 2022 On My Way is inspired by real-people close to me, finding love in unexpected places.
