A blend of the beauty of rich string themes and the beast of dub inspired rhythm and textures.

A hopeful cue with live recorded texture and orchestration.  Thanks to Liz Navarra for the wonderful violin performance.

She Loved All

Been working on corporate music for a whole week and need to let off some steam with this one.  Composed, recorded, mixed (barely), and up on Soundcloud in one afternoon.  Hope you enjoy.  It's far from "corporate"..... 

Showdown

Behind the Lines

This is a custom piece I wrote for Facebook.  Commissioned by the awesome folks at The Furrow, the direction was to write a light-hearted, yet inspired piece that featured raw instrumentation and intimate recording- while still allowing enough energy to move a 30 second animation along.  You can view part one of the project here:  http://thefurrow.tv/portfolio/facebook-best-practices/

Keep Looking Up

They Continued On

Took a few hours each day during the course of a week and wrote something that got me going.  So much of my job as a composer is to write FOR other people and during the course of this week I wrote simply to scratch my own creative itch.  Ended up getting a few great ideas down and will be refining a couple of the ideas I had for an EP in the next couple months.  Enjoy!

Texture-heavy cue for a recent collaboration. Wonderful string work by my friend Jeremy.  The slightly out of tune ending was on purpose and really added an honesty to the piece.

The Rocks Cry Out

The final cue from the documentary "Tiharu".  As usual, loved working under the direction of MD Neely to produce a score that served film the best way possible.  The entire score will be available via iTunes late June 2013.
