In the End feat. Amy Kirkpatrick

Super Progressive Trance Body, extremely long timbre changes. Big Builds! Wrote this back in 2003 but never released it. I hope you enjoy it!

Symapthetic Road

Sympathetic Road

A syphonic twist on progressive breaks, with time signature changes, and modulated basslines, brass, and strings. Originally written in 2004 but was never released. I hope you enjoy the journey.

H-bar (The Early Years)

Road to Leipzig

Wrote this in early 2005 but never published it.. Enjoy!

Blitter Feedback

We really tried a more modern approach to breaks and synth pop, and tried to keep a bit of the progressive nature that is OnA... As a producer, I was really taken with Amy's cadence in her vocals and hope I captured her ability to really drive the song forward lyrically. Hopefully this will be the first of many singles to come with Amy. I hope you all enjoy the release, and thank you all for all the wonderful feedback during the production process! Great community!! Cheers, Cary

War Inside My Head

Written back in 2004 but never released, atmospheric with a grinding distorted passacaglia styled theme.

The Early Years

Ya Toesha

Began this track as a first movement to a larger composition but abandoned it as other priorities took over. After listening to it over and over, felt like it could stand on its own as an interesting ambient piece.

March of the Departed

This was a fun collaborative work with Steve Poole from @poolehouseproductions. Steve is a great musician, and it was a pleasure to work with him throughout the process. I hope you all enjoy the fruit as much as I enjoyed the process. 
Cheers, Cary

A Shared Mind - Steve Poole Collaboration

This project began as an exercise to write a song that would be eligible for curated genre playlisting. But for some reason I have a mental block when writing for specific genres, the resulting track is close to the antithesis of what I set out to accomplish. Starts out with a slow half step bass track, but... I quickly reimagine the track as a dance floor arrangement, followed by a melodic synth interlude, back into a dance arrangement and then schizophrenically into a reprise of the intro. lol I hope ya'll enjoy it.

Moving for You (Extended Mix)

Special thank you to @dimmaster-sound for the Remaster!

Moving for You

Moving For You

Began this track as an upbeat ambient instrumental, and decided to introduce a beautiful vocal that seemed to take the track in a entirely different direction. I think it really developed well. Thanks for all of the feedback and critiques, I appreciate this community very much!

Monody of a Broken Heart

Saturday night in February session... Just a quickie I thought Id finish but eh.. moving on... Open to anyone wanting to add to it, just ping me.

Open for Collaboration

Got to Be

This track was an attempt to write some melodic/smooth house after being inspired by a couple of dj sets of melodic house (check out @arnie_nrw if you are interested).  This version is an 'Extended Mix' that I hope will be favorable to someone wanting to use in a Live Mix set *(DM me and I can provide you with the download link per request).

Thank you to all who were kind enough to give me the critical feedback! You guys are great!

We Ain't Here For Long (Orchids and Angell Remix)

Nathan Dawe - We Ain't Here For Long (Orchids and Angell Remix)

Re-pitched the Vocal on this Version, let me know in the comments which vocal version you prefer. Wasn't sure what proper etiquette is for remixing for a competition, but was asked by several folks that heard the original vocal why the voice was pitched up... So this is for them I guess.

Nathan Dawe - We Ain't Here For Long (Orchids and Angell Remix v2)

**Release Candidate**
This is the third mixdown featuring Nathan Dawe's Vocal, Combined elements from the first 2 mixes, and thickened instrumentation elements. Balanced the overall mix, added stereo field automation, and sidechaining to build clarity in the focused regions, light mastering signal chain.

We Ain't Here For Long

**Release Candidate** Nathan Dawe - We Ain't Here For Long (Orchids and Angell Remix)

Orchids and Angell is an ongoing and ever-changing musical project that I developed so that I could rotate vocalist (Orchids) through at different times and continue down a single path of discovery with as little friction as possible in the mechanics of getting tracks to our listeners. I am a Composer/Producer/Engineer/Computer Scientist as well as an avid electronic music enthusiast and artist with over 25 years of experience in audio production and sound design. I have been working furiously to find time to foster and regenerate my passion for musical composition, and I think I may have found a path forward. I've had nearly a 16-year break from writing/playing with a lot of life in between (three beautiful girls) and I'm just so grateful that I've found my way back to enjoying my greatest passion once again. Feel free to reach out to me anytime! I hope this is just the beginning of a wonderful journey into discovering even more about the sensation of tone.

Cheers, Cary
