This is the full version of Warm Skies, an original composition I created for my final year of uni. I decided to create the track around the concept of drumalong tracks, and together with its drumless version (also here on Soundcloud), my idea was to record what I felt like on the drums, while leaving a version of the track open for other drummers to create new ideas around.
I hope you like it - thanks for checking it out!

Warm Skies

This is the drumless version of Warm Skies, an original composition I created for my final year of uni. I decided to create the track around the concept of drumalong tracks, and together with its full version (also here on Soundcloud), my idea was to record what I felt like on the drums, while leaving a version of the track (this one) open for other drummers to create new ideas around.

While recording to a demo version of it, my feel on the drums naturally floated along with it, which influenced the then rerecorded drumless track. I decided to keep it this way, as I like the natural moving feel of it, which contrasts nicely with most modern music (specially rhythmically-heavy drum-specific tracks) that stay precisely with a click. 
It becomes a bit more of a challenge because of this 'live' feel to it, so I hope you like it - thanks for checking it out!

This is my own string arrangement to Alexi's Murdoch hauntingly beautiful 'Someday Soon'. It was written as a uni assignment (actually initially misunderstood by me!), and it was chosen to be performed live by an incredible string quartet, no preparation or rehearsals. So here it is!

From a random chord progression that happened during a distracted conversation, to this... I’m very proud of how far this one’s come.
Another composition of mine, this time featuring a fiery guitar solo by the one and only Anthony James!
This is the drum playalong version, with a click.

This is the version that I originally recorded drums in.

A (hopefully) cool remix of the wicked CLO track - Blackout. I added some dynamic movement to the strings, made the main vocals more present and seem closer to the listener, I rerecorded the drums in my newly-built practice/recording studio, and added a few rhythm distorted guitars, as well as a classic over-the-last-chorus guitar solo. I hope you enjoy it!
