This song sort of wrote itself, I decided to use the tuning that I had begun using (and continued to use) which is CGCGCF. It changes from a really pretty almost middle eastern sounding acoustic to a really cool piano/guitar combo, and then eventually into, my forte of course, hard rock.

Keep Your Head Up (demo)

Here are three short samples of my portfolio upon graduation with a Bachelor of Science in Audio Design Technology from the Art Institute of Seattle.

Portfolio - Justin Gunter: Real

Portfolio - Darian Rosebrook: Let Go

Portfolio - Symphonic Crisis: Key To Love

First off, I apologize for the static. I've been sitting on this song for a few months, and I finally decided to upload it. Yes, I am most definitely going to rerecord it, and no there won't be any static in the rerecorded version. I hope you enjoy this early version despite!

Unnamed Instrumental (demo)

This is the first song of mine where I utilize a slightly better recording setup, as well as my new drum set. Finally I have a song where every single thing you hear is legitimately played by me and recorded by a microphone. This song is special in so many different ways, not just for me but for so many different people, it's really quite amazing. Anyway, I hope you enjoy listening to it, whoever you are!

You Can Survive (demo)

I bring back the Metal with even more gusto. I play with a background "choir" sort of feel during the verses and use my voice four at once in each chorus (two higher parts and two lower parts for harmony).

Your Nightmare (demo)

I incorporate a keyboard for the first time in an attempt to make a Dance/Rock combo. I feel it turned out rather well, especially where it changes up about two thirds in. Hope you enjoy!

Never Let It Die (demo)

This is an intense song that really speaks from the heart for me, and I've had this song eating at me for I don't know how many months to finally record it. I'm really experimenting with this song by singing much softer than I'm used to, by letting the song be dynamic, and really letting my imperfections shine and really drive home that "human-esque" feeling I wanted to establish here, such as when I was singing, I was singing with emphasis on my emotion rather than being pitch perfect. I intend to do an "electric" version of this song with electric guitars and drums and such down the road eventually.
