The Girls

Trafficked

The Descent Into Madness

Soundtrack for the Short Film "Angel of Hope" directed by Kent Allen.

Beautiful, soft, and emotional score build around piano and orchestral themes that recur through the film. Subtle synths and winds are also used to change up the color/texture palette.

Hope

Reassurance

Through the Ventilation Shaft

Suspenseful Action

Track written in a pinch for a short film. Love the outcome.

The synth atmospheres were created using Massive/Absynth/Laundronium and CamelSpace/2CAudio's Breeze reverb plugin.

Last Train Home

Surprisingly enough, this is the first song I've written to a Google Images search. It worked out better than expected. If you're curious, this is the one I'm talking about:

All of the percussion used was from Drums of War 2, 8dio's excellent Epic Taiko Ensemble, and Kontakt 5's built in world percussion instruments. The marimba ostinato sections were made from layering together around 10 different instruments, ranging from marimba and glass marimba to tuned fiberglass tubes to give it a bit of edge.

Bawu, Duduk, and Shakuhachi Flute were layered together with flute flutters from Audio Genetics' great library "Native Flute" (best 15 bucks I've ever spent) for the melody lines. http://audiogeneticslab.com/instruments/native-flute

Ngorongoro

The Rains Return to the Serengeti

I figured that someone might appreciate hearing the full version/concept of this piece, so here goes.

My idea for this piece was basically a musical depiction of the annual cycle of life/migration in the Serengeti plains, beginning with the dry months, moving through the rainy season, and then returning full circle.

The intro with the solo vocals, duduk, and underlying subtle strings and choir is meant to evoke a feeling of loneliness and need, yet remaining beautiful, because lets face it.. the Serengeti is a beautiful place.

This section comes to a slow and relaxing end as the piano ostinato begins. This section, with its quick, and high pitched pulsating (before the drums enter) is meant to represent the start of the rainfall, and the return of life to the Serengeti.  This section builds and builds as we see the plant life restored, and sources of water and nourishment return. The ending represents the inevitable end of the life-bringing rains, and a return to the dryer parts of the cycle/season.

Thanks for listening!
