ok, why this name? My kids were watching Veggie Tales and it just came to me. I have meant to change the title, but I can't think of anything. 
I have no idea what this track would evoke. Are you seeing anything?

Aspartacus

I wrote this for a contest (didn't win) - I just decided to do whatever came out - The feel seemed like something from a Tarantino movie (if I dare say so). 
What visuals do you see in your head?

Coendou, Sphiggurus And Echinoprocta

Lone Cello - just seeing if I could write something more classically inspired. I stole the title from the first line in the movie DUNE (huge Dune geek). 
Just an exercise, never intended it to be anything else. 

A Beginning Is A Very Delicate Time

Early mix of Deny The Night (was called Intercession at the time) - sparse and without sonics, complete strings or and end.

Deny The Night Early Mix

Shadow Puppet was another track from the NUMB3r5 project. This was to be the opening track that would introduce everything. I really still intend to finish the project. I wanted each track to have accompanying animations to make it a multi-media experience. I imagined each being laid out like extended title sequences(I still need to learn After Effects to make this a reality). 

Shadow Puppet 2015

A work in progress - Dark and Ambient - not sure where it's going yet... I have a friend adding guitars. It's a bit of an exercise in lead bass right now.
Plans - the drums are not complete and mainly serve as placemarkers right now. I would like to replace them, but will most likely end up re-programming(yes, I am one man with a laptop and no other real musicians). I am also planning to add vocals (yes, I can sing!).

Deny The Night

I wrote this years ago and will never be able to finish it. You see, I had a tragic hard drive failure that took all of the individual tracks. I have meant to try and re-create it, but can't seem to do it. Oh well, at least we have this scratch mix. If I was ambitious enough I would write this for a real orchestra. 


Gentesesk

This track makes me think of a crash site, I'm not sure if it would be real world, sci-fi or something else.
What do you think?

Scanning the Wreckage

Shadow Puppet Scratch

I hear sounds in my head and try to translate them into song. I fail miserably every time and I am okay with that. These are the results.
I have been involved in music my entire life. I am a fan of original compositions that are sincere and honest. My heart lies in how music can evoke thought and feeling, more so than virtuosity (not that I think amazing musicians don't have their place). 
Influences: Peter Gabriel, Casey Crescenzo, Phillip Glass, Brian Eno, Steven Wilson, Hans Zimmer.
