Breakin' Thru

Whew! This one is intense!  A very fast paced tuned, similar to "Driven" - but with a more raw approach.  The song is short at two minute songs, and has several different parts and variations giving you the sensation that you're kicking ass and kicking it fast! 

Bring em' out!

"Burning" was inspired by battle-music found in RPG games. If you are working on an RPG and am interested in having some intense fighting music look no further! This song has an epic feel to it, while it is simple and short. The intensity of the song varies, but it is more or less a good fighting song, not really a boss battle.

Burning

This pace of the song gives the feeling of waiting, or striding through something slightly ominous.  The application of this song is where it just enhances the mood of the project, as it is quite non-intrusive in nature. It seamlessly loops, with giving the affect that it's much longer than it actually is. 

Crushed out

The song includes a slow opener, and transcends into the strong theme of espionage.  It's clever, sneaky, and hides well into the background.  Rolling at the possible speed of your heart rate, it slowly builds into an anti-climactic chorus.  Where it ends, you just have to find out..

Conspiracy

This one is a little slow but steady, increasing and building unto an triumphant melody.   A "tense" melody starts it off and carries it into the unknown.  As the song progresses a strong melody brings in presence, then ending the song with a sense of victory. 

Cyber Advance

Dead Waiting is a rock/metal tune that uses real drum kit sounds and guitar synths.  The song starts off slow and speeds up as time progresses.  It would be great to use for a dark game or video where the focus is surely something dreary.  The word "waiting" is used because it does give the sense that something ominous is near, and that something must be done. The intensity of the song changes back and fourth, allowing for a theme to show both climax and suspense. 

Dead Waiting

Funky synths mixed with a melodic exploration into the keys of descent. This song would be great for a video, commercial, or anything else that needs a bit of funk mixed with a melody that crawls the scales. The fast pace definately puts it into the "Exciting" category. The variations take you on a descent into a musical fantasy filled by a techno-driven engine.

Descent

A sad, sad song that takes you through strong emotions of loss, yet a chance for hope.

Down

Popularized by minecraft enthusiasts, Drifted is a fast-paced progressive song that builds up to an intense finale.  The song would go well in any action packed game or video pushing an important point.  The song keeps you interested from start to finish!  Thank you, and enjoy!

Drifted

This song has many different parts to it, so while it's not repetitive, it holds a strong theme that I find extremely intense. The song could be used in fighting games, racing games, or puzzle games with a high intensity(short timed levels, etc). The song takes you on a trip, and so the title "Driven" has come from the very feeling I get from it. I get the feeling as though I'm being chased, either by time itself or something very, very scary. It has somewhat of a dark sound, while at the same time triumphant, as if it is pushing for an unsure yet determined protagonist.

Driven

The word is out, the droids are coming, and there's nothing you can do to stop them. One by one, single file, everyone will fall to the long arm of the robots! As the music strolls along, you'll know that you have no chance for survival. Systemically all will fall.  This song is an updated version of "curious tragedy" (repackaged and named properly)

March of the Droids

Emergence is a fast-paced, rich electronic ensemble inspired of music from the Castlevania(tm) series(80-90s'), but with a more mysterious twist.  The song is filled with every part necessary, and endlessly loops.  It has slow ambient bridges, a wonderful melodic verse and a hard hitting chorus that will get stuck in your head!  

Emergence

Enrolled is a slow song with a strong melody that bends and twists through an uneven, deep chasm of strong ambiance.  Drums kick in and out in this one.  Definitely different.

Enrolled

Eternal is a song I had written back in 2005. The song has a slower pace, but gives you the feeling of something that something mysterious is going on. The slow melody and progressive percussion changes make this one perfect for anything transitional. The beat consists of a slow break-beat pattern, mixed with thick strings and other synth sounds. This song is free to use for anyone as long as I am given credit and my site is mentioned.

Finding Happiness

Finding Happiness (no-drums)

A slower song that gives the sense of mystery, while showing a building suspense which ultimately ends anti-climatically.

Forget

"Gameboy" is a song that was inspired by the 8 bit sounds I have enjoyed from this vintage handheld gaming machine. Take a journey through 8-bit and beyond. Anything celebrating retro gaming would be well complimented by this "vintage" tune. The tune plays over and over again, and is rather happy, but each time it plays it comes in a bit more "modern" and more "modern" as it goes. 

Gameboy

This rockin' tune features the use of synth lead guitars and fast thrashing drums.  Many different parts keep it from being repetitive, and it's intensity builds into a release of strong melody.  This was my first song using synth leads, and so it was very difficult to put together and took 3 days to finish.  It's rapid pace would make it ideal for racing games, or something with a theme needing highly intense music.  It also seamlessly loops perfectly.
