Dreams of Distant Stars

My first finished track for 2015. Hopefully I can actually keep this up and not die again this year, but I have no promises. Having a job cuts into your free time a lot.

Europa

Inspired by The First Light Of Dawn by Cold In Gardez.

Corona

My job ate me alive for a while but I finally got around to finishing this track. Some people tell me it's reminiscent of my older styles.

Magnetar

Inspired by a combination the Tantabus from MLP:FIM and the Interstellar score.

Tantabus

I wanted to finish at least one more song before the year ended, so here's a generic techno-ish song. Mixed on actual studio monitors! But if it sounds good it's probably because of my mastering engineer.

Nuetronium

This is a mishmash of old ideas (at least one of which was used on Cosminox) that I tried to turn into some sort of glitch hop song. I don't think this is entirely glitch hop, but I like the result anyway. 

Salmagundi

Dedicated to MelodicPony, inspired by Eternal.

Dreams Of Distant Stars

Twilight's Star

Legends of Magic

I think I should make a new genre called "Space Trance" to put all these weird space-electronica songs I keep making.

Andromeda

This track was inspired by a story and wound up mashing together multiple different ideas into a herculean effort to make an orchestral song that sounded cinematic instead of my usual flair. This will be the title track for my album, Dreams of Distance Stars.

An experimental techno electronica track of some sort.

Digital Crystals

It only took me 4 years to finish this idea, but I'm happy with the result. A particularly interesting fusion of orchestral and electronica.

Whirlwind

Mayday

This is probably one of the oldest song ideas I've ever had. It's gone through many many many different iterations, but I was never happy with them. I think I've finally managed to do the melody justice with this incarnation.
