Here is another exciting sound effect I created completely from scratch with Pro-Tools. The inspiration for this sound effect branched from my very first SFX. With some further processing and a little determination this came to be :-) Let me know what you think!

Futuristic Sound Effect_002(Free Download)

Busy at work and sneaking in the time to continue the creativity. Thank to the help of Shaun, who contributed to this track I present, Become Something New the second rough. Let me know what you think. :-)

Become Something New (Rough x2)

This was my very first exposer to the Top 40 genre within the San Francisco Bay Area. Grew up with a large Electronic Dance Music genre which was the majority of the music I would spin. But once I signed up for record pools I got expose to some of most uplifting mixes and remixes by various artist.

I am a huge fan of demonstrating music that I love not just because I love it but because I know that someone somewhere took some time to arrange and compose the song into what it is. As a DJ or performer I see no reason not to play it.

Enjoy the mix and dance it up! :-) Feel free to download the mix and take it "On The Go!"

Fixation Radio CDJ Mix #7

This song is inspired by many of the trance music that I grew up listening to and DJing. This is an attempt to create emotion and express feelings without the use of words. Incredibly enough, it has been a huge goal to demonstrate personality with simply, sound. 

Feel free to download!

Another interesting topic is how do human perceive. Interestingly I have explore some amazing example with others whom have also shared their experience when it comes to interpretations etc. In my opinion, a lot of what we experience become a self interpretation of how we experience something. Such as this song! This song is my way of exploring various perceptions or interpretations. Adding many element to the song to find out what sticks out to whom and how it makes them feel. Make me feel very calm but ready to start the evening! :-)

Human Perceptions

This is a small mixing demonstration between two songs performed live during a Fixation Radio Mix. This shows both the style of music and energy level I love to keep my DJ performances at. Basic beat matching with quality control over volume levels and frequency spectrum.

Performed on: Stanton CDJ
Recording into: Logic Pro

Songs used: Lick it - Skrillex
Yeah Yeah Yeah - Spencer and Hill

Mix Demonstration

Take a moment to get away from the active life-style.

**For best experience: Play in a group, inside a room where everyone can see each other. Start time will be as in-sync as possible.

Will Hear Differently - ReMastered - Downloadable

After a very brief conversation with a friend, we came upon the question of why the human body contains time limited entities that science discovers. Oddly enough there are "things" that are in the human body that unfortunately come to an end over time. I questioned this idea as to why would the body contain such "things," if we, as living beings strive to survive, continue on, or attempt to recover. I am sure there is a lot of details missing from the conversation, but what is important that this very question and conversation challenged me to create a sound for it. Here it is! :-)
