This is a song I created for a video of lights reflected on the floor in the hallway of my house of the  tree branches outside rustling in the breeze.  I used FL Studio software synths to record the instruments which were all played free-hand on an M-Audio Axiom 25 Midi Controller Keyboard, except the drums which are a small pattern added to create structure for the jazz-style recording.  Synths used of note were FL Studio FLEX with the new Essential Bass collection that was added this week to the new version of the software, Toxic Biohazard Angel Voices patch with a bunch of alterations including a sloppy loose filter to give it a quaver to the vibrato making it more eerie, and Ogun with the LoFi Cluster 2 patch which was used as-is.  The video footage was recorded using my iPhone 7 on a cell phone tripod which was used for inspiration for the music watching while recording.

Haunting Lights from the Window - A Chillout Downtempo Nature Music Video - Creative Commons

This is an electro industrial song I created using a Behringer Crave and some drums on FL Studio.  Recorded multiple tracks with different settings for each sound then used the solid state controls to create rhythmic and tonal nuances throughout.  So the entire song is my first whole piece created entirely using modular synthesis and performance.
I create music for soundtracks, themes, or any other media application where moody music is needed.

Escape from Hypercube - Dark Grinding Electro Industrial (Royalty Free Music for Video)

This is a song I created as an intro or interlude in a film perhaps.  Something dramatic like the leaves rustling over the sky in the wind revealing a guitarist on a rocky ocean hillside serenading the sea with his music.
I created this song using Karma Triton software, a Berhinger Crave, a Digitech Elements multi effects processor and several Boss pedals.  The guitar is a Japanese Squier Strat from the 80s tuned to Open B.

Cloud City

Imagine you wander into an old abandoned cinema complex and find that 7 of the theaters still have long forgotten films playing, their scores haunting and dark.  

7 compositions played with all 7 of my electric guitars and basses.  Each one a different performance.  The action and tone are different overall as they change giving the piece a distinct, vivid dynamic.

7 Abandoned Theaters - an Ambient Guitar and Bass Soundscape (Royalty-Free Music)

Imagine traversing a wide range of desolate irradiated wasteland, Chernobyl only years after the accident.  Oddly amidst the atomic dust and mutated wildlife there lies an oasis, a place of refuge.  You celebrate your good fortune and stay there for a while.  Until the food runs out.  Then it’s back into the green gloom again….

This is a trance/industrial song I created using software synths in FL Studio and some noise tracks performed with a Behringer Crave, through a few guitar effects pedals.  I used five different kick drum samples panned out evenly to create the richer percussion low end.

Chernobyl:Oasis - an IDM Soundscape (Royalty-Free Music)

This is a song I recorded on my ESP Ltd 6 String Jazz Bass.  I imagine it to be an underwater scene deep in the ocean.  An epic amidst the depths, finally coming to a rest at the deepest darkest bottom.  There are some louder more expressive parts, but they are not overwhelming or extensive.  Overall it’s a very atmospheric, dreamy composition. Could be a good soundtrack for a dark video game or an exploration video.

Poseidon’s Rest - a Bass Solo Performance Soundscape (Royalty-Free Music)

This is a soundscape composition I created using a Behringer Crave Semi Modular Analog Synthesizer.  I wanted to emulate the icy, windswept ridges on a glacier at night, some of the sounds imitating movement or transition kind of onomatopoeia.  It could be used as a backdrop to a remake of John Carpenter’s the Thing or perhaps an urbex exploration into a dark manor with the wind whipping through the window sills like spirits on the breeze.

Arctic Glacier Nightmare - an Ambient Synth Soundscape for Easy Listening and Film

Imagine you are exiting the woods at the base of a giant mountain, even looking up it looks dangerous.  Up inverted cliffs and treacherous ridges you climb working your way to the top, for that final view.  This is the soundtrack to that type of film event.
