this the first song that I produced for Andrew Huang's Music Production Course.  We had to write, mix and master in 10 days-  which may not seem like it's too extreme, but that time goes quickly.

This is some music I made for a short stop-animation film I made with my 6 year-old son, Taiyo.  It was a blast to make, and my first soirée into creating music for a movie.  The Theme song features Matt Bloodwell, of the bands Precious, and Megaphone on vocals.  

The track SuprFleeky is a play on Die Antwoord's "I fink u freeky"- I tried to change it enough to make it my own, and re-did the lyrics to go with the movie.  This is also my first attempt at 'rapping'- and I actually think it turned out pretty well.  

The movie can be seen on YouTube here:

ASM Theme!

This is a song that Derek Engstrom wrote after the Pulse shootings in Orlando June 12th, 2016.  Derek wrote it, and recorded a rough version of the song on his iPhone by himself, and posted it on Facebook.  I heard the song, and felt that it needed a full treatment, and deserved a full blown recorded version.  In the following weeks, at my home studio,  I recorded the drums and percussion, and enlisted my band mates from Shak Nasti, Tim Turner (guitar and backing vocals), Matt Lapham, bass to flesh the song out.  Derek came and added acoustic guitar and vocals, and I got to work mixing the song.   We all put our time, talent and love into this song, and hope that it serves to continue with all of the efforts people have made to bring Orlando together in spite of what happened on June 12th.
