Inspired by a particularly emotional sequence during an episode of Rick & Morty, I took to my DAW to lay down my own version of the background music and took the liberty of adding 2+ minutes of vaporwave / dance track to the end.  My interpolation of the "Sad Rick BackStory" music. Only in my version, he finds and kills the s##t out of Evil Rick and Evil Morty. Enjoy....      

P.S. I would absolutely love to score a sci-fi space themed movie or animation project one day. If you're making one, hit me up. ;)

The Death of Evil Morty (Rick's Crybaby Backstory and revenge)

A departure from my usual style.  This is a meditation song for contemplation of the Eternal.  Assume an altered state and ascend.

Glimpse of the Eternal

Chill ambient vibes in a happy little jam that builds as it goes.  As long as you draw breath, it's never too late. The world is full of wonders.

As Long As There's Tomorrow

Chill drum & bass meets ambient.  In B min - 141bpm

Moonlit Memories

I wanted to break out of a recent cycle of writer's block so I took to Chat GPS and had a long conversation with the AI.  Together we wrote a small short story about the bond between two cybernetic androids in the future.  Built from harvested brains from humans that lost their original body somehow, then incorporated into machine bodies with 100x more capabilities.  They believe they are still capable of love and they believe they maintained their souls, but what truly lies at the heart of the machine? And where exactly is that boundary line?
     Oh, and I was also listening to a metric butt-ton of Chemical Bros, Crystal Method, Prodigy, etc.. and other EDM artists I used to enjoy WAY WAY back in the day (like late 90s early 00s) so there's definitely a LOT of influence coming from that direction as well.  (and for younger listeners, the vocal samples in the second half are a band called Modern English)
EDM - Electronic - A minor 130bpm

Machine Love Nexus

I worked very hard on this one.  It has 71 tracks (unique melodies, beats, and samples) and took well over a month to piece together.  The feeling is that of a melancholy longing, but served in a chill, spacey vehicle.  I hope you enjoy it!

"I met my soulmate in a dream, then woke suddenly and without warning,... I didn't even ask her name, how painful is the morning..."

Epitaph for an Angel

After a prolonged battle with writers-block, I decided to just sit down and just let "whatever came out" happen.  This track is the result.  Playing with vocal samples and slicers mostly. It breathes in waves, Starting with a meditative trance, building slowly to climax over and over, and then ending with a few minutes of spacey groove to dance to! Hope it doesn't disappoint!  I envisioned one who meditates and achieves astral projection and takes comfort in the cool serenity of the cosmic afterglow, drifting effortlessly through the luminous haze of eternity.

Cosmic Serenity ~ Part VII: Luminous Drift

"Her love is like a hurricane, her voice is like thunder, feel it running through your veins".   I've had nothing but writers block for the past 6-8 months and it's hurt my ability to churn out songs, lacking inspiration sometimes one must return to their comfort zone, and uplifting trance/EDM is definitely an area where I feel comfortable composing and arranging. This 74-track behemoth may sound a little "retro" in places, but I am happy enough with it.  Just an uplifting dancey trance piece to give me a chance to use all my favorite samples (gratuitously) one more time.  I sincerely hope you enjoy it! Thanks for stopping by to listen!
P.S. The female vocal is from a sample pack I downloaded, re-tuned, chopped up, and cut and pasted all to hell and back.  I wish I knew who the artist was because her vocals are gorgeous and I'd love to give her credit.

((NOTE: I had to reupload the track due to a mixing error, if you already liked this track, and don't see it anymore, that's why!))

RAINDANCE (Uplifting Trance Mix'24)

I'll wait for you in Eternity.  When our timelines meet again, I'll stand beside you in time, watching another sunset, as our temporal echoes stream into the aether.   I wonder where you are, or should I say, I wonder when you are...

Echoes in the Aether (Sunset Remix 2187 A.D.)

The beauty of solitude... Desolation, will I see you in another life?

Desolate Dreamscapes - 2377 AD

This one starts slow, ambient and pulsating, and slowly builds to a dreamwave climax over 5+ minutes.  It gives alien dance party in the astral vibes.  I hope you enjoy. 

Astral Highway Disco

This is a different style than I'm used to.  I wanted to create an ambient soundscape meditation trance of sorts, a way to achieve altered states of consciousness through sound. I might call this more of an 'artistic soundscape' than a true 'song' per se.  I hope you enjoy.  Close your eyes and drift into orbit, meditate and look down upon the planet as it slowly rotates below.  Let go of the ego and simply embrace "being" among the stars. 

Orbital Meditation: Sequence 03-Omicron Theta

A synthwave odyssey... (with influence from Belgian composer, Voyage) Set the controls to auto-pilot, program the destination, and sit back and relax, take in the view.

New songs always in the works!

I've been a musician and composer for decades, but recently moved to focus more on electronic music.  I use a lot of stereo elements, best appreciated with headphones or good quality speakers.  My goal is to capture sonic vibes and emotions, to transport you to an altered state through melody. Open your mind and ascend!

I've played guitar and keyboards in various bands all my life.  I'm primarily a guitarist and songwriter but on the side, I enjoy writing EDM, Electronic, and Synth-based music...  I enjoy trying to capture "sountracks for altered states of mind" and if I had to name my style, I'd call it "Dreamwave".  
Influences vary.  All the way back to Yazoo, Depeche Mode, Pink Floyd, Alphaville and The Human League all the way up to present artists like Infected Mushroom, Chemical Brothers, Pastel Ghost, Deadmau5 and Shpongle...   That said, I'm a musician, not a producer, so I'm sorry in advance if the mixes aren't perfect,.. I'm always learning!  But hopefully you'll feel the sonic vibe, emotions, or psychedelic brainwaves I was reaching for, ascend to your altered state, and enjoy. 
Cheers and thanks for stopping by! <3
