Hereafter, Infinity

Awaken

A Clock Without A Craftsman

Cover of Maroon 5's "This Love" from our Recording class at Cal State LA. Players in the class performed on this collective track, help engineer the session, and completed their own mix of the song. Josh Miller on Vocals, C-Aye Purcell on background Vocals, Jose Perez on Drums, JP Mourao on Guitar, and myself on Bass. This is my mix of the track. 

This Love Cover

Cover of Bob Dylan's "It's All Over Now, Baby Blue". Idea was to reimagine this Dylan track into something entirely new changing the arrangement, harmony and even parts of the melody. 

Produced myself on all instruments : Bass, Guitar, and Backing Vocals as well as Production, programing, mixing, recording, and the arrangement.

Lead vocals by Kevin Shima. 

Baby Blue

Original song where all sounds on the recording are made using my only electric bass through various effect pedals. Full song to be produced as part of an EP coming soon.
