Excellent guitar musicianship beautifully executed composition and a wonderful listen.

Interesting composition with charismatic instrumentation and playing.

this is such a unique sound!! i really hope you don't find this offensive, but my immediate thought was it sounds like the intro instrumental part of the peewee's playhouse theme 🤣 which btw in itself is a great bit of music i believe.

An Other World (part 4)

Xiphos is the ancient Greek close-combat dagger. Etimologically, it means "the puncturing light", and i thought it was a beautiful idea equating dying in combat or being stabbed in the heart to the entrance of light into one's being.

PROGRAM NOTE
Unlike some of my previous works, Suite for String Orchestra is not inspired by an over-arching programmatic theme. Although there are some technical and motivic relationships between some of the movements—particularly the first and fifth—the movements are generally unrelated and are meant to be noticeably distinct. It is in five short movements and is intentionally written in an “old-fashioned,” somewhat archaic style. I initially played around with the idea of titling this work Old-fashioned Suite or Old Time Suite, but there seems to be a sufficient sprinkling of “new fangled ideas” in this work to make these alternative titles seem inadequate.

The first movement, Allegro vivace, is written in a “mid-20th century American” style. My model for a few of the sections in this movement is the evocative, German phrase Sturm und Drang, which literally translated means “storm and stress.”

In the second movement, Trapped waltz, I imagine an ethereal, yet cognizant waltz floating above the stratosphere, looking for a place to rest, but hobbled and shackled by a pounding rock and roll drumset. I see this as a metaphor for the various dances throughout history that have come and gone but are continually vying for attention in contemporary culture. The movement fades out at the end, as if the waltz is eternally looking for a place to settle down. Admittedly, I was somewhat inspired by the collage works of Charles Ives.

The third movement, Nocturne, begins slowly and sadly, and I imagine the pulse in the beginning as similar to the gentle breathing of someone who is asleep. The middle of the movement is much more intense and violent, and the end is as soft and calm as the beginning. The first chair violin and the first chair violoncello have brief solos in this movement.

Although material from the middle of the fourth movement, Balinese scherzo, is derived from a Balinese scale, the beginning is somewhat chromatic and the ending is essentially based on the E-major scale. This movement is distinctive in that the orchestra is asked to play pizzicato almost the entire time.

The fifth movement, Finale: allegro moderato, is the movement that is most reminiscent of the first movement. The ending combines material from the beginning of both the first and fifth movements.

I composed this this track based on four classic guitars in order to use it as background for my video "Sant'Alessandro", available on youtube here:

I produced the whole thing using the AKAI MPC LIve and a Zoom R8 as preamp.

UNDER WATER

Under Water

First song with my little sister on vocals. Did a silly challenge to use only one chord throughout the entire song.

Dog Days

Solid Midwest guitar rock with a sprinkle of British influence. Find time to breath in the middle of chaos.

"The Light rises revealing our Fate, Fathers betray their dying Sons,
denying them Salvation in the name of Gold, letting them drown at
the mercy of a Huge Burden".
