A guy on Youtube recorded bird sounds from his back yard and slowed them down. One of them sounded like a guitar riff, so I tried it as one.

Canadian Songbird transcribed for Guitar

This song is usually done on 2 pianos. I did it on 2 guitars.

The song is made of 2 instruments playing the same melody, but with different timing in order to cause the music to go in and out of sync in different ways. It's bizarre and quite interesting to listen to.

Guitar Phase (Steve Reich Piano Phase)

It's a few notes, continually out of time. Sounds pretty amazing.

G'n'R Phase - Steve Reich take on Guns and Roses

Paganini Phase - Steve Reich take on the First Caprice

A demo I did 10 years ago. It's written to be the intro for a set of tracks with a related song at the closing. It's kinda Vivaldi mixed with whatever I was listening to at the time.

First Contact

A tune we made for a Canadian movie called "Queen of the Zombie Punks". I don't think it ever got off the ground, so we'll probably use pieces of this song elsewhere.

Brains4Dinner

Super Quick song that I once used as an introduction to a website :D

Enter Shredman

Our cover of Stratosphere. Essentially as close as we could make it to the original Stratovarius' version, except for a more fancy mellow section. I even tried to keep the guitar tone as close to the original as I could.

Stratosphere

Our version of Paranoid, originally from Black Sabbath. On vocals is Roddy Clark of Crazy Babies fame.

Paranoid

This song was an experiment in backward music. The solo is built from some of my riffs backward, and the entire arpeggiated section is another riff played backward.

The middle vocal part sez:

When I wonder why
What's never been's never been so
We would lie when we say, 
"yes, you know we all love you"
what's never been's never been so
Hell, we're nowhere now.

It's an audio palindrome for those who like to play things backward looking for secret messages.

Wei Touke

Our version of Handel's Water Music. 6 guitar tracks, 2 synths and a bass guitar. We did a 4-track version earlier, and now are thinking about combining ideas from both versions. Who knows... we'll see.

Water Music

A short and spirited version of Rondo A La Turca, done on guitars and synth. This is 4-track stuff, so of course, the recording quality is crappy.
