Imagine shirking your responsibilities and sleeping through the day.

Enjoy this relaxing trip through the mode Dorian.

Day Sleeper

Egotism Vanishes

A dense song that hits you like a fever dream.

Fever Dream

It sounds like the warm side of blue.
This tune is written in the irrational time signature of 5/5. Music just doesn't get written this way. 
Also, this piece features a melodic call and response. It's written in Phrygian G. I hope you find it beautiful.

Cerulean

Do you choose to fight the dizziness and press on to your goal?
This song features a storm of notes and, expertly plucked oud solos.

Lightheaded

Great conversations start with a single phrase. This song features two synths having a talk.

Chatterbox

Relic....
"The Sun reclaims.
 It makes a secret of you,
 The time remains,
 The Sun still shines upon you  "

Relic

A complex piece that features five musical points. It utilizes the irrational time signature of 6/5.

Five Points

A call and response featuring a bright synth and a stormy piano. Watch the drums.

Captain

This song travels through various keys in the mode of Locrian.

Locrian Clock

A song with a whimsical fairlike feeling to it. Like you're walking down the midway and looking at rides that'd probably make you sick.
It's a journey of a song. It changes from Dorian to Aeolian midway through.

Midway

I'm a writer of uncannily tuned melodies and incorporator of irrational time signatures. If something hits you as odd that you play or see from my creations, it's because I want you to notice the beauty in deviance and dissonance for yourself. With each piece, I lovingly place nuance and hide meaning; songs should tell a story, even if only through instrumentation. 

With the name Shuriken Miasma, I’m trying to evoke the sound of my music; frequencies, like a cloud of tiny daggers, finding the vital spaces of your ear. Sharp highs and warm lows are the vehicles this assault usually takes. These songs use the full spectrum of stereo, which helps take you to the music. I also want you to feel the emotion or circumstance I’m writing about.
 
Most of my inspiration comes from my life experiences as a human, martial artist, student, and person with Dissociative Identity Disorder. 
(Click the YouTube link below for music videos, some including martial arts)

I’ve written about sunny days, walking along the sidewalk. I’ve worked arduously to convey moments of psychosis I experience due to my neurological disorder, even hallucinations, and feelings of unease. The song “Throw you in the River;” is what I would describe as a musical argument, in the form of call and response. The album "Creatura Thema" is an experimental attempt at sharing the phenomenon of hallucinations with the listener, but also has many thematic layers beyond that; an onion of an album. I guarantee there’s a song on here that will worm its little way into your brain funnels. 

I compose original music and strive to learn more with each song completion. I’ve been writing music for 10 years, and my knowledge has been enriched by several years of experience working as an audio engineer. My music theory is self-taught, and about five years in I began to experiment with modal music. 

Today I primarily work with modal music and like to challenge myself by constraining my compositions to various arbitrary rules from track to track. Sometimes nostalgia blooms and my song reminds you of a video game you once played. Other pieces will take you to the edge of sadness; if that's your thing I suggest you listen to my song "SAd Cacter;" purposely miscased to connote the key the song is in. 

Aside from here, you can find my music on all major platforms. If you want to use my music, or can't afford to purchase it but would like copies, please message me directly.

Welcome, and thank you for listening!
