The Waking Moment

Slightly more sinister Charlie Brown Halloween adventure music.
My favorite day of the year, as a child. 
Christmas day? Only a close second.

Bleeper Pad

As I worked on this tune, I began to think that it really was in the spirit of KFAI Radio's Musical Transportation Spree. Heard here in Minneapolis from 1991-2006.
And so, I dedicate this track to Chris Waterbury and Jerry Modjeski, aimable hosts of the Musical Transportation Spree.

Simon was commissioned to create a sound installation for the Trafalgar Hilton Hotel in London's Trafalgar Square. The piece was created entirely from sound recordings gathered from within the hotel.

write is not a crime

Welcome to my kitchen!
My compositional philosophy comes from a way of looking at music that most closely resembles.....the TV shows Chopped and Project Runway.
Lemme 'splain. 
A Chopped contestant might be asked to make a delicious dish using Duck, Stilton cheese, Dill-pickle flavored Cotton-Candy and Almond Butter. While your typical Runway contestant is struggling to fashion a Ball-gown out of office supplies.....or furnace filters.
In that spirit, I begin a piece by randomly choosing 2 or 3 sounds and a couple of styles (and/or a more neutral style of my own that I call Electro-Classical) from nearly the entire world of music. The more absurd, the better (mostly).
Then the blending and contrasting begins and a way is found to get those crazy parts to add up to a delicious, savory pants-suit of a tune.
Music should be fun!

A composer from the Land of Sky Blue Waters making music with a primary focus on harmony, rhythm and melody. In that order.
Stylistic considerations a distant 4th.
Instrumental.
Electro/acoustic.
A person may sing sometime in the future (once a suitable person is found). Update: Singing got done on Song for Robert Wyatt - but the person was, in the end, unsuitable.
Expect a different style of music with every composition.
Expect my muddy mixes to slowly clear with more experience.
Expect swing!
