I wrote this song for a project I was working on for the Intel Corporation.  This was the version they didn't use, though I liked it so I posted it here! It features a guitar with delay and a piano melody- it has a simple beat and is very short (but they only asked me to write 30-60 second clips). 

H20- Version 2

Written while experimenting with my new keyboard at the time.

Rainfall

I figured it was better to write a song (and use my actual automated balance in the recording) than be upset over how broke I was that month. 

Three Cents

I was writing 3 songs in 3 days as an experiment to see what I could come up with.  This was written on the 2nd day - it was some ideas I had been messing with for awhile, but I put them all in one place here! The ending is both guitars with a delay-effect. 

Sound Test Song (Instrumental)

My first track written on Ableton - I finished it on my laptop while looking out the window when I was on a Southwest Airlines flight, so it reminds me of passing through clouds. 

All Day Long

Written with my old band Special Ed (not the rapper -- we weren't big enough for copyright infringement anyway:)
I am on vocals and lead guitar! -Mike /DGruver

It was played on commercial radio at least ONE time that I know of. Yeah, that's right. 

Esteban Sanchez - Drums
Brad Pfahler- Guitars & backing vocals
Josh O'Leyar - Bass

*I don't own the photo, but thought it was pretty cool.

Nearsighted

This was kind of a sound test - two guitars and electronic drums.  It is kind of sloppy because I think I had some drinks that night, but I like how it turned out!

*I don't own the copyright to the photo. I just liked it and put it with the song*

Christine

Here is a Flamenco-style guitar track.  It was done in one take (both guitars), so it is kind of sloppy.  Thank you for listening to it.  This is my Dad's favorite thing I can play on the guitar. 

*this image is not mine-- but it is pretty cool*

Spanish! (Jan 16th 2016)

This was the first song Vonn Li and I wrote together.  He told me not to post it; I was new at trying to write hip-hop and our style changed a lot after this.  I hope you enjoy it. 

*The Triforce picture is not mine, but it is cool-looking*

Another Level

This song has lyrics, but I'm still working on them.  In the meantime, here's the instrumental version.  Thanks for checking it out.  I'm playing all the instruments on this one! 

*The Artwork is probably copyrighted - I just thought it was a cool picture*

Not For Me

Here is a new track that my friend liked.  It started as some guitar chords but turned into this! It does have vocals in the middle, but just real quick.

Feel Love106

Hi! Thank you for stopping by and listening to my songs - I hope you like it.  I will always be a rock guitarist, but there's a lot of different music styles on my account because I like to experiment with writing anything that sounds cool (rock, hip-hop, piano and electronic). 

I live in Tempe, Arizona and currently play bass in a punk rock band called "No Gimmick" (their regular bassist is in prison, so I am filling in until he gets back in 2017).  Though I've been playing and writing music for 20 years, I'm new to Soundcloud. 

I welcome suggestions, so if you say "It sucks," tell me why! Thanks. -Mike
