Everything

I was struggling to write a Power Metal song, and then in rode CrusaderTheo.
He played wonderful guitar solos across the track, and did the Mix/Master.  
Big Thank you to he who brought this track to life!

Why Are The Shadows Running

Sand Castle

I've always loved the Silent Hill series, the music was something genuinely perfect and the setting is something beautiful.
This is a little track that I initially wrote for a client who then completely disappeared... it was a shame to throw it away.

This is a depressing song about a teddy bear that is no longer loved and wants to be thrown in the trash.  I start with some angry metal, then I break into myself singing harmony with myself as alternative rock, then some whistling (it fits, trust me).  Most of this was done on TE OP-1 Field keyboard, with post cleanup in Audacity.

LYRICS:
It's not easy being an inanimate object...
I can't even breathe.

Please tell me if I'm real.
Do I exist?
Why am I here?
Should I be sad?

Where does the time go
While you sit still
Staring at the wall?

I just want to be used
Like a paper towel.
Clean up your mess and discard me.
Throw me in the trash when you're done
Waiting for someone...

I'm all alone.
You forgot that I'm here.
I used to be your favorite object.
Inanimate Object.
Throw me in the trash...

Another re-upload of a track (3-3-23) I released shortly after joining SoundCloud. Re-uploading it  because I wasn't happy with the mix, and I don't think a lot of people have heard it yet. As always, thank you for listening.

Spelunker

So this is an avant-garde dubstep song.  I began with TEOP1 and intentionally tried to be slightly offbeat and a bit random and to drag it out, then get it all to come together and pull out a primary melody with an electronic lead ("dimension" instrument on TEOP1) with a few piano sections ("pianistic" instrument on TEOP-1) and add in dub bass.  I went through 2 cycles of adding it to the 4-track on TEOP1, copying it out from COM to laptop, filtering in Audacity, copied it back, added more layers, then back to laptop again.  Normalized to -14dB with -1dB soft limit.  This song represents how I felt in the middle of the night at 3am while soldering random circuits for a supercapacitor experiment I was doing, and likely breathing in too much of the lead solder fumes.

Late Night Garage Experiments

Ambient soundscape of being inside of a heart.  TEOP1 keyboard with multiple really low modulated wumps, then a few lead layers mostly triplets of dissonant 2nds and 7ths, intentionally with no rhythm.  Then simple Audacity cleanup to -14dB normalization and -1dB soft limit.

Inside The Heart

I'm going to start doing some live looping performances on TEOP1 so this is a random practice session that is kind of Jam Band / Scat / Funk.  There is a 4-track on the TEOP1, so I can start out with drums or scat and then hit a key to end the loop, then just keep playing live and kind of overdub onto the other 3 tracks, and then also add in breaks by holding on one of the tracks while playing a B section.  I just live improvised the bass loop and then improvised the organ and keys as I went.  Random mood today, sorry to my dubstep and ambient fans :) This one is weird.

Attentive

Some basic ambient jamming out on Tidal Cycles with simultaneous TEOP1 keyboard at the same time.  If you want to watch me code in Haskell and play the keyboard at the same time, watch here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-g_n5ztNvvk

SHADOWS OF HER TOUCH

The Gatekeeper

For reasons unknown but time will tell...
Multi-instrumentalist, all types of music, all types of methods.
Occasional collaborations with other artists.
Sometimes I post the sheet music if it's piano.
Lately, my favorite instrument is a TE OP-1 Field keyboard.
