Old version of Making Waves where ReBirth and an old version of Vaz (Vaz was the bollox!) provided the synths and whatever samples I could get hold of provided the rest. I think I used Cubasis samples. This is from an old and decrepit PC so there's no chance of editing. There's so much that I'd change if I could.

Long Trance - The Value of n

Easy Rider sample is recognised... First attempt at anything that remotely resembles dubstep.

Standing at the Edge of the Moon

Little ditty that doesn't make much sense.

Staying Sane - The Value of n

The continuing theme of strings rising through the scale...

Clubbed to Death Again

Music that is ispired by Jamin Winans' "Ink" movie that made me cry so hard.

High as Fuck (Ink Movie Soundtrack Idea)

Using Heaviocity's Vocalise 3 and Arturia's Acid V to create dark movie soundtrack music.

Altruistic Cynics are Doomed

Music that's inspired by Jamin Winans' Ink movie.

Epic (Sketch)

Sketchy sketch of a soundtrack idea. Glitchy experiments. A very specific film score idea for a very specific film. Jamin Winans' underground cult classic "Ink" is the inspiration.

Every Little Thing Means so Much to Some (Ink Movie Soundtrack Idea)

Thinking about what might have been resulted in an emotional sketch that experimented with drones and ethereal vox from Heaviocity's Vocalise.

Monochrome Memories (Sketch)

Emotional dealing with the concept of death. Psychedelic prog electro.

Death is Not the End (Sketch)

Junglist Digitalism (Sketch)

Evolving from high frequencies with minimal bass to something else.

1st Bitwig Experiment 2024 - 05 - 21 2231 (Sketch)

Beautiful female vocals over music that conveys a feeling of worthlessness.

Gravitas of Words (Sketch)

Film Score idea that's mixed really low in Reason 12.7. Turn the volume right up! Acid 303 at the end. 
This is a better mix but it's by no means a good one.

Placid Acid (Sketch)

Storm Clouds (Sketch)

A Ghost Haunts Me (Sketch)

A quick sketch using Knifonium for the first time and Arturia's EFX

Acidic Chaos Theory (Sketch)

Sketch of an idea that emphasises the bassline on an emotional chord progression.

Enforced Distortion (Sketch)

Skull Orchid Dub (Sketch)

Edge of Saturday - Kylie Minogue (Industrial glitch breakbeat Remix)

Phase Planter (Sketch)

Philosophical Drum And Bass (Sketch)

Cait Mechanical (Sketch)

The 'frogs in a pot of boiling water' metaphor explored via an experimental sketch; a gradual increase in intensity that is so gradual that it might be unnoticed references Dali's 'Soft Construction with Boiled Beans (Premonition of Civil War).'

Soft Construction With Boiled Frogs (Dali Acid Dub remix) Sketch

Minimalist ambient track with subtle female vocals.

Dream State

My ex forced me to be separated from my children. I was angry. I created this about 15 years ago.

boq Compilation

Mementos

Making the most of Cubase's samples and experimenting with my new Making Waves toy and SoundForge before I had a clue what I was doing about 15 years ago. Didge is me.

                              

Higher Flow

Nicked some individual percussion sounds from the original and some samples from the Memento movie to recreate my version of one of my favourite NIN songs. All of the guitar parts were played by me on a Grass Roots Explorer. The people in the photo are my daughter and me; we're in this together. The lyrics don't necessarily apply because this is my daughter who I love but the person who I hated stopped me from being the father that I wanted to be. This was created a very long time ago.

We're In This Together (Nine Inch Nails) Instrumental Interpretation

My sketchbook of sonic oddities that spans a few decades; from sample-centric OctaMED on my Amiga in '99 via Making Waves/SoundForge 4.5 to VST-centric Reason 13.
I emphasise the "sketchbook" aspect because these are snapshots of creativity that often outstay their welcome with too much repetition and too little progression. They are very far from being finished works but serve to capture the beginnings of ideas that might be developed into finished works in the future. There are no finished works here... only sketches. This is my sketchbook.
