"The Mark" - Club Reinterpretation (Work In Progress)

Inject (Dj Icikis Remix)

This is a 3:30 reel containing parts of eight different tracks that I have produced in the past year. All music is original.

Reel 2016 (symphonic & hybrid style music)

Reel 2016 (mixed genres)

Test for horror theme music for DBD. The arpeggio is a homage to the themes of famous horror flicks such as The Exorcist ("Tubular Bells") and Halloween.

Dead By Daylight demo

Robonauts L06 (demo)

Robonauts Main Theme (demo)

A track from 10 Chambers' upcoming action/horror hardcore co-op FPS game! Yeah you heard me. It's action/horror hardcore co-op FPS.

The Complex

A glorious 7+ minute megamix of upcoming music!

7 min sneak peek of upcoming Simon Viklund album!

A demo for the chorus of "Drifting" that didn't end up being the final version.

Drifting (another demo)

This is an early version of the recently released "It's Payday". On this demo, I sang the vocals so that Rob Lundgren - who would lay down the final lead vocal track - knew what the melody and energy was. You'll notice the lyrics are also different from the final version.

Some people think I sang the released version of "It's Payday" but as you can tell, my voice is obviously quite different from Rob's. I don't have Rob's impressive vocal range and controlled vibrato, so I sound a lot more strained. I also have a raspier voice, which makes it more suitable for tracks such as "Half Past Wicked" from the Biker Character trailer.

"It's Payday" DEMO with vocals by Simon Viklund

This is the original recording of me "beatboxing" a riff that came into my mind - probably recorded in 2013 - which ended up becoming the track "Black Yellow Moebius" in PAYDAY 2. I often use my cellphone as a dictaphone to record ideas like this.

Did you know that "I'm a Wild One" was initially conceived as "I'm the Cowboy"? Already in this early draft it contained the unsurpassable saddle/desperado rhyme - this was destined for greatness.

LUDICROUS MODE!!

An Aaron Copland inspired track intended to embody my hope - nay, enthusiasm - for the bright future we'll go into after we've pushed through this global crisis! Hardships take their toll but they also galvinize and unify.

The track contains some exotic percussion instruments from all of the world's five continents (for example, Indonesian "gamelan", African "sangba" drums and Peruvian "cajon") to symbolize unity between people and cultures.
