SHAKIN' MY TREE is the raw, unflinching sound of a broken heart caught between leaving and loving. The DC Sound Project delivers a soul-stirring track about the dizzying fall from grace when a relationship turns toxic. It's a confession wrapped in a melody—a defiant admission of pain where the only lie is pretending that "my heart wasn't breakin'." A deeply honest look at the moment you realize you're 'deep fried' and 'tongue tied,' but still magnetically drawn to the one who brought you down.

Lyrics

Don't get me wrong, 
I'm not lost or forsaken. 
I took a fall,
From you shakin' my tree.
If I was to swear,
That my heart wasn't breakin',
The only one lyin',
Is me.

Under my breath,
I swore that I love you.
There's nothin' left,
There's no reason to stay.
If I was to swear, 
That my heart wasn't breakin'.
I'd see myself right,
By the end of the day.

Call off the dogs,
I've done enough runnin'.
I'm deep fried,
I'm tongue tied.
I'm fadin' away.
There used to be so much,
But you left me hangin',
Here on the edge,
With nothin' to say.

Under my breath, 
I swore that I love you.
You standin' there,
On a warm summers day.
My mind was ablaze,
I'd do anythin' for you.
Please don't you stop,
The games that you play.

They keep me grounded, 
I know my place.
All of my senses, 
Explode into space.
So if I was to swear,
That my heart wasn't breakin',
I'd see myself right,
By the end of the day.

"Modern avant-garde for the new millennium." AMG REVIEW: 13 by Earnest Woodall is a true character. He creates outrageous atmospheres from eclectic sound sources. 13 by Ernest Woodall is a collection of 13 compositions, each of which deals with or recognizes a different superstition. The pieces have just enough dissonance and just enough melody for balance. This is modern avant-garde for the new millennium. It will appeal to fans of Terry Riley, Pauline Oliveros, and Dmitri Shostakovich. - All Music Guide - Review by Jim Brenholts﻿

Eric Schultheiss stands at the vanguard of contemporary composition, forging a unique path that bridges the rhythmic drive of global percussion with the infinite possibilities of digital sound. As a composer, percussionist, and educator, Schultheiss is acclaimed for his hybrid electro-acoustic works—pieces that fuse the organic pulse of drums with orchestral richness and the sonic innovation of modern electronics.

Rooted in a Southern California upbringing steeped in progressive rock, classical discipline, and the improvisational freedom of jazz, Schultheiss draws on a vast tapestry of influences. His music channels the off-kilter accents of Stewart Copeland, the lyrical intensity of Neil Peart, the storytelling depth of Peter Gabriel and Sting, and the progressive artistry of Genesis, Dream Theater, and Spock’s Beard. This synthesis results in compositions that are as intellectually rigorous as they are emotionally evocative.

Currently, as Head of Percussion Studies and Electro-Acoustic Composition at the Middle Tennessee Conservatory of Music, Schultheiss is an outspoken advocate for the DAW as a true instrument. In his hands, digital workstations become canvases for sonic experimentation, allowing for real-time orchestration, microscopic precision, and the layering of polyrhythms and timbres that would be impossible with traditional notation alone. He champions technology not as a shortcut, but as an authentic extension of the composer’s voice.

Signature works such as Lights Twinkle—a Christmas percussion-ensemble piece blending Japanese Taiko, harp, and haiku-inspired vocal textures—showcase his ability to unite tradition with innovation. Airidea’s Journal explores the dialogue between structure and freedom through dance-driven percussion and atmospheric synths, while As You Sleep and Terminal Memory reveal Schultheiss’ penchant for ambient soundscapes, introspective melodies, and cross-media collaborations. His compositions have been commissioned for film, dance, and multimedia productions, performed by leading ensembles, and praised for their intricate interplay of rhythm and resonance.

As an educator, Schultheiss is dedicated to shaping musicians who are not only technically skilled but also creatively fluent in both acoustic and digital modalities. At the Middle Tennessee Conservatory, he mentors young composers in hybrid techniques, polyrhythmic structures, and DAW-based workflows, encouraging them to embrace technology as a creative partner. His influence extends beyond the classroom, as he helps students gain visibility in the digital era and equips them to thrive in an evolving musical landscape.

Through his relentless curiosity, innovative spirit, and commitment to artistic growth, Eric Schultheiss is redefining what it means to be a composer in the 21st century. His work is a testament to the power of bridging tradition and technology, and to the limitless frontiers that await those willing to explore them.

Christmas time is here and we have written our first ever Christmas song!! Out NOW!

The DC Sound Project. Eight albums deep and still going strong. It usually starts with a good old-fashioned jam session, then somehow ends in a coffee-fuelled recording marathon.
