Created in LMMS with Strobe2, this is is the fourth song I wrote in 2016-2017.

While there were a few ideas I did not end up finishing or polishing (dang ze'luck, haha) I am still quite happy with how it has come out and feel like I have a reached a good stopping point.  Learning to master tracks is a future endeavor that I look forward to learning.

Interstellar Waltz [LMMS] [Unmastered] [11OCT2016]

Composed using Chordbot to plan harmony and created in LMMS.  This was the second complete song I wrote (huzzah) and on reflection have the following two thoughts:

   - Needs low chant / vocals during break down 
   - Needs an alternate expression of melody near/at song end

While not perfect, I am quite happy with the progress!

Wings Of Icarus[LMMS] [Updated, Minor Mastering] [29MAR2017]

First creation after transitioning to Ableton from LMMS.  This song is intended to illustrate a story, rather than be 'catchy' itself, and serves as an introduction to another song.

Synths and Drum Rack from Ableton and Strobe2, and all melody/chord progressions were manually entered via the piano roll.

Hell Hides In Heaven's Garden [Ableton -- First Song] [Unmastered] [19JULY2017]

This is the first 3rd (or so) to the second song I have written with Ableton Live 9.

I started the project wanting a relaxing song to write with no story or idea in mind.  It is inspired by the common chord progression used in Megaman 2 and the Nightwalker Synth preset in Strobe2.
