A rough draft of a song about the darkness of the human spirit, using California "Freeway Killer" William George Bonin as the example to get the message across. There are no lyrics recorded with this yet, but they are written. Working up the nerve to sing them myself. ;-)

I definitely need a decent beat track for this, as my own ability to make beats is limited to whatever an automatic beat machine can produce. ;-)

"Hungry for the Feast" Instrumental

Not meant to sound pretty or very pleasing, it's just a little experiment I made in man-made fractal music. One of two that I tried to make in my interpretation of Julia fractals.

The Ugly Fractal

A song I heard in my mind at a time when I was feeling useless and down. It's about potential realized far too late. Unfortunately, the keyboard I recorded it with had a bit of a problem with the touch-sensitivity, so bits of it may sound a touch harsh. I don't have equipment to record it properly now, else I would.

Too-Late Bloomer

Another fractal experiment, this one is a lot more pleasant than the last. I came up with the arrangement entirely on my own based on - again - my interpretation of a Julia fractal, and it ended up sounding in parts almost exactly like another well-known classical song. That was not intentional, but I suppose it just reflects the mathematical nature of music and some of history's composers.

Fractata in F Sharp

Based on a single section of a more well-known classical song, I just took it and ran with it, repeating it four times and adding to it a little each time. I only call it "original" in the "Type" category because it's not really a "remix", and "reinterpretation" doesn't appear to be listed.

And Then...? (Compleate)

A piano tune I did pretty much just for fun - ergo, I didn't focus so much on timing. I hope you like it anyway. :-)

Cowboy, Don't Go Home Tonight!

I tried to remake this song originally done on solo piano in guitar with a beat track. Eh, not bad - timing's better, for sure. I think personally I still like the piano better, but am not displeased with this one, either. :-)

Cowboy, Don't Go Home Tonight! (Redo - guitar w/beat track)

A bit of whimsy about the fabled Molly Malone. I created an accidental melody while practicing the original song, and it actually sounded like a moment of wavering, imbalance, and I imagined it to be Miss Malone seeing someone who took her breath away.

This isn't such a serious arrangement, I'm sure it could be much improved. But like most of my music done on my own, it's just for fun. I'd love to redo so many of my past songs now on new equipment, but that's unfortunately going to be a ways off.  :-#

Molly Malone's Heart Fluttered

A work-in-progress, a ballad made for a woman I once had the pleasure of knowing named Elaine. She wasn't actually _DUTCH_ Dutch, but Deutsch - here in Pennsylvania, they called many of the German immigrants "Pennsylvania Dutch", the name originating from the German's name for themselves (the aforementioned Deutsch).  She passed away in 1992, and I still miss her to this day.
