I wrote this with the help of Matt Johnson (bass) and Michael Miyahara (guitar) - our hope was to create something memorable. Something out of the overflow of our hearts. We wanted to create a moment that moved people. This is it.

Whilst writing the score for Holy Ghost this Spring, Wall of Fire emerged. I had some time to clean it up and add depth and presence from the DSI Prophet 12 (and a few Moog patches as well). This is one of my favorite genres to write - electrocinematic. Close your eyes and let it take you away...

Wall of Fire

From my EP - Tunnels and Light.
More tracks from the EP soon to follow.

The Void That Brings Us Closer

A selection from my score for Holy Ghost - heavily inspired by anything which resembles adventure, elation, joy or majesty. Think of an eagle wrapped in bacon...soaring the heights of a Wal Mart looking for shoplifters.

Enter In

The final track from my EP - Tunnels and Light.

The singing is Mariah Carey's "You're Mine" acapella, available free here - 
http://www.audiomack.com/song/soundonsoundonsound/youre-mine-acapella-studio
Used almost completely in reverse, chopped and edited to fit with the melody of my track.


The Way Out Starts At The Bottom

This is truly the most wonderful time of the year - purely magical. And I think it ought to be accompanied by music which beckons nostalgic warmth. This version of Dwell was born of late nights at a piano...always wondering if the melodies of the original could be rewritten in a rather free and spontaneous fashion. This is what emerged. It is best enjoyed under a star-lit sky as the snow falls  - of course with several angels & baby deer in your midst as you sip hot drinking chocolate. Merry Christmas and enjoy the free (and uncompressed) download!

The plucked/felted piano you'll hear in this is something I modified in my studio - I used felt from the bottom of adhesive furniture savers (the things you put on the bottom of chair legs to keep them from scratching the floor) and adhered them to different piano strings - made for a magical experience!

Smother (with Mothica)

Taking is not in all cases 'receiving' 
What we denounce from ourselves, we replace with something new. 
The regression of life 
& the fluidity of existence is a continuous giving and taking. 
We take from our experiences, and we give to our emotions. 
the inherent beauty of emotion is its ability to change our experiences.
this paradox fuels everything we know. 
like Life & Death. they give, and they take. 
again & again. 
"They" in this context, are the roles of the observers. 
recycling the same idea, and the intrinsic mechanism of reality 
that "what begins, must end" 
and somehow, eventually we accept this. 
Our affinity for being and our apprehension for nonentity 
It gives us our purpose, and we take it indefinitely. 
They give us desire, and we fill it with everything. 
All that you have, has been given to you. 
and you gave yourself all of it. 
In this particular case, giving is 'receiving' 
because you can take as much as you want. 
but the more you take, the more you give away 
and you give it all. 
every last bit.

Out of my hands

...But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him. The son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.’ But the father said to his servants, ‘Quick! Bring the best robe and put it on him. Put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet. Bring the fattened calf and kill it. Let’s have a feast and celebrate. For this son of mine was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’ | Luke 15
