When people liked my Facebook page 100 times, I liked them back with this sensual love song about liking.

You Liked Me

work in progress short instrumental thing

Conundrum sample

Living Backwards - sample -

Sample of a track made mostly of my piano

Already There sample

Electronic song that will be a part of the instrumental side of my new album.  

Right Here

Another sample of a track from the instrumental side of my album I'm working on titled "Being Now." Made with piano and a few other recorded sounds and edited in ableton.

Relax and Be Here

Here's just a super quick sample of what you can do with the mangle granular synthesis plugin and a piano to record.

Pads With The Mangle

Short unfinished song sample.  Rhythm ticks are made of raindrops.  Background ambience is the piano

Light

This is an almost complete version of a song that is more of a self reflection... telling myself to take my time, and realize how beautiful it is when you know you'll reach your goals, but if you take your time, the journey is a pleasure, not a struggle.

Take Your Time

This is the first installment of a two part song for an installation painting that I made with Devon Larsen.  All of the sound is created out of his paint supplies and the canvas.  The tonal qualities are derived from my acoustic guitar.  You can hear the foreshadow of the second song at the end of this one.... I'll eventually re-post this after I link them together.

Lasting Effects

This is a half hour mix down of the music that I did for the opening  reception of some new works at the Museum of American Art, in St. Paul.  Enjoy!!

Here

Sample of the stuff I've been doing with Maschine.  Very releasing.  Feel that relaxation

Something to Live for

Here's a little something I did with doing the dishes.  All of the sound except for my guitar is from doing the dishes. 

Cleaning Up

FInally a little bit of relief and calm washed over me tonight.  Here's a little piano playing I felt it captured my feelings.

Expect Nothing

New sample of what my new album will sort of be like.  It's all real sound in these songs.

Stay Calm

03 Somber Situation

02 Mechanical Color

start of the album Interpersonal V.1 available for free download at https://www.ryanhortonmusic.com .... listen to the next three after this one for the full album, or just download it under my music page at my website... you can do it.

01 Interpersonal I

This is something to make you laugh, something I made on the plane of me and my family making weird noises

Weird in Florida

Here's some stutter practice. Something in the same style as my new album I was playing with, not actually part of the album though.

Smile

Here's something I'm still working on, hope you like.  It's piano and slowed down sounds of my garbage can, coffee thermos, and other things.  

Patience

This is the kind of music that'll be on my next album, little more simple, little more blissful.  Woke up yesterday and made this. This is not finished, work in progress.

Happy to Be Alive

For those who can't sleep, to be on my next album "Being Now." Work in progress

Feeling Something Else

This is my latest album.  All of the sound is recorded from my environment, be it work, walking around, my apartment, the river... and then reformed into drum kits.  The melodies are predominately my piano and guitar mostly chopped up.  Make sure you Listen Alone

Feel All

Make Me Whole

The Darkness

Listen Alone

Polarity

Fire

The Whirlwind

I aim to provide relaxation and healing with my music.  My latest work has focused on taking sound samples of my environment and instruments and re-creating them into music.  This should give the listener a sense of my surroundings, and how I feel about them.  Please Enjoy.
