My friend Ebin laid down a piano track and I built the rest on top.  Enjoy.

Wind Revelations (instrumental version)

12 Etudes, Op. 8: XII. Etude in D-Sharp Minor

Here it is at last, the single from my forthcoming album Kitsune, which I plan to release in September. You can expect more wind and brass tracks as well as strings on the release of this album, as they have now become my favorite orchestral instruments, especially the clarinet and oboe! :D

Kitsune: Tavindel

Aggramar faces Sargeras in a final stand.

The Fall of Aggramar

This is the MIDI version of my work for tenor and orchestra, Letters from Elbert. The work sets to music letters written by my grandfather to his sister while he was in the U.S. Navy in World War II. They trace his journey from basic training up to a month before his discharge. The letters are at times humorous, at times poignant. They paint a vivid picture of his surroundings and his life in the Navy. I have only two memories of my grandfather from when I was a child, and I am grateful that through these letters I have gotten to know him better.

This work is dedicated to the memory of my grandfather, Lawrence Elbert Bahr, and to those in our family who have kept our family history alive: my great aunt Florence Maltby, my cousin Ed Coleman, and my late sister Julie Bahr-Kostelac.

Wissahickon Idyll

Think of a song that is kinda "...Blue Turtles-era" Sting, crossed with "Dummy-era" Portishead. Then throw in some jazz and some world music. And a film-noir-esque lyric. Which appears below:

Got a tip from a rich dame
Socialite with a bitch name
So now I’m staked out
In this autumn sleet

What a night for a gumshoe
What a coup if it comes through
Fame and fortune
Get me off the street (I told her)

This better be worth it
Better be worth it, you hear
This better be worth it
Better be worth it, my dear

An Arabian princess
Fled her family in distress
Tried to hide
But can’t outrun the press (I’m thinking)

This better be worth
It looks like a wash-out, I fear
This better be worth it
Better be worth it

Camera trained on a crime
Streaming to internet live
Not a reward for my time, but
Maybe the princess survives

This better be worth it
I’m perched on a tightrope, it’s clear
This better be worth it
Better be worth it

This better be worth it
There better be payment, no fear
This better be worth it
Better be worth it, my dear

Better be worth it

Divided We Fall is a quintet for harp, ukulele, clarinet, oboe, and flute. Inspired by the increasing political polarization in the United States, the piece represents the struggle to communicate effectively, to find common ground, and to compromise.

Performed at the University of Utah April 21st 2025:
Flute - David Bennett
Oboe - Anna Larson
Clarinet - Alvin Yeung
Harp - Addison Line
Ukulele - Dallas Bitter

Divided We Fall

Really diverse song, having multiple sections like: eletric bass riffs, clarinet solo, rock guitar type thing, percussive only part and more. Represents how you should live life, carefree, if it works, it works, be happy and do shit, stop waiting too much.

Be whatever

The portfolio profile for Shane Lindeman at Freedom Studio in North Judson, IN.

Amateur pianist and composer, studying and practicing for 7 years, member of BMI - Broadcast Music Inc.
All these compositions are made in my free time, mainly inspired by my favorite books, films and TV shows (My inspiration also comes from my favorite composers). I prefer to compose solo piano tracks, but cinematic orchestra is my second favorite genre of music and I have practiced a lot in that genre. 
I'll probably post small, unreleased tracks here on SoundCloud
Thank you to everyone who takes the time to listen to my tracks!

Started out as a drummer shortly after the last ice age. 

With the advent of electricity, I grew sick of being the guy who hung around with the real musicians, so decided to teach myself to write songs. 

Years later, and studio hours too numerous to mention, I've reached the point where I don't suck at it.

I do what I can with the engineering side, but due to some industrial deafness, there's bound to be things I miss. 4kHz? What the fuck is 4kHz? Ohhhh, right....that's the area that's buried in all that tinnitus!

This is the point where most bios will pad the writer's ego, inflating self importance...which I hate, but I'm human, so here's just a bit. Spent years playing sessions, mostly for bands you've never heard of but also for a heap of adverts you probably have. Learned lots of studio craft from some very talented people. Studied production with a Grammy Award-winning producer/engineer for seven years. 

And none of it means a hill of beans in respect to the following question: is the music good? If you think so, then little else really matters, does it?

I have three studio assistants. All are feline, and none of them like asparagus.
