This song is an 8-bit tribute to my mentor and friend, Mike O'Mara, one of the best men I know. I wrote this in two days over the course of something like 10 hours. Mike, I haven't played any video games in three days for this.

The original song is for choir and piano, an opener written for a musical revue called w00t!, about growing up in the information age. If you want to hear more of Mike's music, you can hear it on his YouTube channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/MikeOMara

This song was written using only 3 separate sounds (percussion, bass, melody/harmony) and 4 tracks. If you have any comments, criticisms, or requests, please let me know! This by no means a "final" version.

w00t!

These are a few numbers from "I've Learned", a revue concert held in October 2017 that featured a number of my original works concerning the themes of identity and personal growth. 

The stellar performers featured in this playlist are Jordan Roulo, Robin West, Caro Granner and Isabelle Calkins. 

The tracks were recorded by David Flowers.
