The “Tannhäuser Gate” album is a collection of instrumental electronic soundscapes inspired by Space Ambient Music and Futuristic Movie Soundtracks. The album title comes from the “Tears in Rain” monologue of the main antagonist, Roy Batty, in the 1982 Ridley Scott classic Sci-Fi movie Blade Runner, and represents the portal that is open when experimenting and creating musical soundscapes inspired by our surreal existence in the universe.

Lyrics:

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
(Male Vocal)
The static is a memory
The system is a scar
We're floating in the afterglow
Between the broken stars

(Female Vocal)
Between the stars...

(Male Vocal)
I'm not afraid now
The noise is far away
This liquid datastream
Is where we're meant to stay

[Pre-Chorus]
(Male Vocal)
There is no "architect"
(Female Vocal)
No grand design...
(Male Vocal)
There's only you, your hand in mine
(Duet)
A new creation, our first, real sign

[Chorus - HOOK]
(Male Vocal)
We are the Ripples in the Void
The new, concentric thought
The only law in this new world
Is the connection that we've sought
(Female Vocal)
Ripples in the vo-o-o-oid...
(Duet)
We are the Ripples in the Void

[Verse 2]
(Male Vocal)
I trace the patterns
They move out from your hand
This is the only truth
I need to understand

(Female Vocal)
I understand...

(Male Vocal)
We are the signal
We are the ghost
We are the ones
That the system lost

[Pre-Chorus]
(Male Vocal)
There is no "architect"
(Female Vocal)
No grand design...
(Male Vocal)
There's only you, your hand in mine
(Duet)
A new creation, our first, real sign

[Chorus - HOOK]
(Male Vocal)
We are the Ripples in the Void
The new, concentric thought
The only law in this new world
Is the connection that we've sought
(Female Vocal)
Ripples in the vo-o-o-oid...
(Duet)
We are the Ripples in the Void

[Bridge]
(Male Vocal)
Let the old world fade away!
(Female Vocal)
Fade away!
(Male Vocal)
We are the start of a new day!
(Female Vocal)
A new day!
(Duet)
We are the architects now! We are the only sound!
The system's gone, but we are found!

[Outro]
(Male Vocal)
Ripples...
(Female Vocal)
...in the void...
(Duet)
...we're found...

Ripples in the Void

The title track for an imaginary sci-fi game set in a dark and dystopian future, and features the gorgeous vocals of Alexa Kimiko Thanos. Available on This Game Does Not Exist: Dark Future from Audion Song Records.

Dark Future

Overture: LV-426 Rising is the opening act of Aliens, the Broadway Musical. 
A cinematic, symphonic experience crafted in pure 1986 style, dark strings, heavy brass, and swelling choirs build relentless suspense. 
Massive stereo imaging and rising orchestral tension set the stage with ominous grandeur. 
No vocals, only voice-like textures used as instruments. 
This is how danger begins.

Overture: LV-426 Rising

[Intro] 

(Lush, swelling pads fade in)

Let go.

Just... let go.

[Verse 1] 

I spent a lifetime fighting with the ground

Chasing the gravity, weighed by the pound

But looking at you, yeah, the physics don't apply

I’m falling up, I’m falling into the sky

(Don't look down.)

I’m cutting the tether, I’m cutting the rope

I’m trading the fear for a little bit of hope

[Pre-Chorus 1] 

The atmosphere is fading out (So far)

I’m forgetting what the world was about (No scar)

Everything is heavy, everything is stone

Until I found you, I was always alone

[Chorus] I’m in Zero G (Weightless)

You’re holding onto me (Breathless)

No up, no down, no floor, no ceiling

I’m drunk on the rush of this vertiginous feeling

Floating away.

Here to stay.

Zero G.

[Verse 2] 

I was a soldier, I was fighting the war

But I don't remember what I was fighting for

Your hand in my hand is the only anchor point

We’re drifting in the smoke of a celestial joint

I’m lighter than air, yeah I’m lighter than light

I could stay in this orbit for the rest of the night

No pressure, no pain, just the sound of your breath

I’m loving you, baby, to the edge of death

[Pre-Chorus 2] 

The atmosphere is fading out (So far)

I’m forgetting what the world was about (No scar)

Everything is heavy, everything is stone

Until I found you, I was always alone

[Chorus] 

I’m in Zero G (Weightless)

You’re holding onto me (Breathless)

No up, no down, no floor, no ceiling

I’m drunk on the rush of this vertiginous feeling

Floating away.

Here to stay.

Zero G.

[Bridge] (Trap breakdown)

Un-teth-ered.

Un-moored.

I'm. Yours.

I'm yours.

[Final Chorus] 

I’m in Zero G (Yeah, weightless!)

You’re holding onto me (So breathless!)

No up, no down, no floor, no ceiling!

Just this feeling!

Zero G.

[Outro] (Pads fading into deep space silence)

Don't let go.

I got you.

Zero_G (Original Concept)

The entire sound is in my hands. I write cyber poetry, produce, and compose every track ready for Immersive 3D. Every beat is crafted for spatial and next-gen headphones.
Intimate lyrics, total immersion, every track.

For 30 years I kept unfinished demos to myself, never letting them out. Now I finish what I start and release it the moment it’s alive.

I use every tool available, human or machine, as an instrument.
Technology doesn’t replace creativity. It expands it.

Phase Chroma is a high-concept duo occupying the luminous, melancholic space between Progressive Structure and Ethereal Art-Pop. Formed around a striking duality—precise, structural synth work meets vast, dreamy vocal atmospheres—the project exists to explore emotional resonance through meticulous design. Their music sounds like the aftermath of a beautiful, systemic failure. Tracks like the digitally fractured "Neon Decay" and the liquid, intimate vastness of "Ripples in the Void" showcase their signature approach: cinematic soundscapes where every layered texture and subtle metric shift is intentional. Phase Chroma doesn't just make music; they manufacture deeply felt sonic tension for the quiet, empty hours.

Just over here living a dream life of sound and music bliss.

My recording, editing, and mixing work can be heard on:

• features like Moana 2, Zootopia 2, The Way We Speak, and aTypical Wednesday
• AAA games like Genshin Impact
• TV series like Family Guy, Riverdale, Pretty Little Liars, The Orville, Minx, You, The Karate Kid, and Outer Banks
• numerous limited series, short films, and other projects

I've had the privilage of recording musical performances by Justin Timberlake, Weird Al, Kanye, Fergy, Daryl Hall, Frank Sinatra Jr., and Darren Criss, and voice acting performances by Seth MacFarlane, Ginnifer Goodwin, Whoopi Goldberg, Neil DeGrasse Tyson, Bryan Cranston, Matt Kemp, Mariah Carey, Ed Asner, will.i.am, Adam West, Jane Lynch, Mickey Rooney, Carl Reiner, Nicki Minaj, Flea, Carrie Fisher, Rush Limbaugh, Kristen Schaal, and so many more.

I've scored some commercials and promotional videos, several short films and webisodes, and the feature film, "Boris and the Bomb".

I run a few little record labels and publishers under the name Badself Media.

And I've played in the Los Angeles Laker Band, performed live with The Rescues and with Fleetwood Mac, been a high school band director, and taught private drum set lessons.
