Description: Psychedelic Rock on TE OP-1 Field Keyboard.

Rock

You are on a hospital bed with the beeping thing and it stops beeping.  Multi-layer original composition with me doing vocals, playing guitar, old Yamaha keyboard, and EWI4000s.

Flatline

Improvised multi-layer rock version of the classic taps military song.  Trying to emphasize that the battlefield has shifted to the digital world.  Old Yamaha keyboard, guitar, guitar effects pedal, EWI4000s.  Waveform artwork is one of my circuits I made of a functioning microcontroller on a breadboard.

Wiretaps

Improvised multi-layer rock with me on guitar, old Yamaha keyboard, and EWI4000s.  This song was later featured in a play called "Rock and Roll Mole" performed at a Chesterfield, VA library.

Now What

Multi-layer improvisation with Korg Radias keyboard and guitar, and TC Helicon Voice Pedal.

Ambivalence

The 11th song in the Path Of The Nullanon.  Starts out with some drone into some heavy rock, then some soul hammond b3, then some reggae to close it off.

LYRICS:
Remember when it was simple?
When everything was hit or miss?
Now it's all just ups and downs at every turn.
Did we ask for this?
One moment you're above it all,
But then you fall.
Then you wake up,
And you're back on top.
Sometimes we just want things to be the same,
But things keep changing.
Chromatic game.

Socratic Epiphany

IMAGES is a numbered series of original piano pieces inspired by the music impressionists of the late 19th and early 20th centuries... Ravel, Debussy and Faure.  I love the impressionist painters.  As a composer, I hear colors, the painter sees.  And, I hear movement, shape and expression with sounds of melody, rhythm and emotion.

I hope you enjoy this collection.  I would love your thoughts about how the music makes you feel, the story you imagine and the images you see when you listen.  :)

Intangible

Shine, Shattered captures the moment when brilliance fractures—wrapped in a haze of retro synths and dark textures.Bouncy, analog-inspired electronic tones dance over shadowy undercurrents, evoking a broken yet beautiful vision of a forgotten future.The contrast between rhythmic playfulness and atmospheric melancholy defines this dark retro-electronic track.

Shine, Shattered

This marks the third collaboration between myself and my good friend across the Atlantic, the talented US-based guitarist @jonathan_beckenstein. For this track, we decided to strip things back and focus purely on the guitar — no vocals, no production tricks, just two instruments speaking to one another across time zones and continents.

It’s a transatlantic dialogue in sound: layered, responsive, and full of nuance. We’ve aimed to capture something raw and intimate — moments of quiet tension, moments of lift — built from the simple joy of playing.

We hope you enjoy what we’ve crafted together. It’s always a pleasure to create with Jonathan, and this one feels especially close to the heart.

Nightstand

a little snippet from the other night. Somewhat contrasting the extreme noise of our last SC post : ) Still making use of this wonderful space and Grand Piano, no doubt we will get asked to leave at some stage, but until then happy days : )

Kirby/Ward  Organ Room Jam # 27

This is music I wrote more than ten years ago that I decided to remix as best I could. I was just learning how to lay down more than just a piano track and had absolutely no idea what I was doing. I always had engineers that did that for me before there were online sites like Soundcloud and others.  I have 2" recording studios tapes from 40+ years ago that has original music that I want to get remixed and there is no one near where I live. If anyone can help me out, let me know. I live in PA.

2nd Time Around

'ghetto falsetto' with Harmful if Followed and sixstring mac

Harmful/Shane: lyrics, vocals, backups

Well the night’s effervescent and I’m on fire
Full of anti depressants to blunt my ire
Well aware of the presence of my desire
It feels very pleasant as I get higher
And I’m clad in a fashion to catch the eye
So why does everyone ignore me as I walk by
It would be a different story for a different guy
But I’ll never find the glory unless I try
So why do I lie so low 
Why don’t I let them know
Let them bask in the glow
Of my ghetto falsetto 

Most are fucked up from the drugs they take,
and don't care to interrupt all the love I make,
but I can't quite erupt so, I'll simply fake,
and make believe
that I have climaxed, because all the noise
that keeps me far from relaxed and trapped in the void, 
I've always had a clean nose but perhaps I'll toy 
with singing in falsetto. 

These streets are full of cackles and high pitched screams
A ghetto manifesto haunting my dreams
Monotone narration to a story I know
A baritone ending won’t leave me alone
I’m not crazy it’s the world around me
I’ll deal with the shit eventually 
Then get past the truth I know
That I’m too low for ghetto falsetto 

But it don’t mater how high or how low 
Unless you mean it nobody will know
All you need is the seed and the get go
Let go of the ghetto falsetto

ghetto falsetto (with Harmful if Followed and sixstring mac)

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.
