Oh... hello there

Well.. looks like I've let this blog go stale. I'm still doing music, just not pimping it here anymore. If you head over my SoundClound account, you can hear what I've been up to.

A new PC means a new Remix

This is a remix of BT's "Somnambulist." BT was kind enough to put the acappella to this track on his SoundCloud page for people to work with, so this is what I churned out. 95% of the stutter edits came with the original track, but I added a few more here and there ;). Feel free to contact me if you want all of the technical details about how and what I did to the track. Enjoy!

Super-mega-ultra-triumphant!

This was a spec track for a friend of mine who was putting together a modern "radio serial" version his web-comic, Airship Daedalus This revisited version - thanks to a new and much faster PC - has a few score changes and added "triumphant" choir to the end. Bully!

A new year... new music.

First piece of the new year. A short little ditty with Rhodes and VP330 strings... and a bunch of reverb. Inspired by someone I love.

Oh La La La Grange

Greetings all!

I've been busy with other things for a while, but here is a new mash-up to get your booty movin'! This time we have ZZ Top's "La Grange" mashed into Goldfrapp's "Oh La La."I think it works quite well, if I do say so myself.

So fire up your speakers and have a nice ride. And if you want this track for yourself, click the arrow to download it.

Teach Me To Sin

This trance-esq track was inspired by my Beloved. The voice is hers, reading a very romantic poem called "Enthralled" by Alfred Bryan. I was so taken by the poem and her read of it, that I added the music underneath to create this final track. I'm very pleased with how this came out.

Please listen on some good speakers or headphones; the bass (and the sexy voice) is worth it!



Here is the full text of the poem:

Enthralled

Teach me to sin--
In love's forbidden ways,
For you can make all passion pure;
The magic lure of your sweet eyes
Each shape of sin makes virtue praise.

Teach me to sin--
Enslave me to your wanton charms,
Crush me in your velvet arms
And make me, make me love you.
Make me fire your blood with new desire,
And make me kiss you--lip and limb,
Till sense reel and pulses swim.
Aye! even if you hate me,
Teach me to sin.

"Enthralled" is reprinted from Pagan Love Lyrics. Alfred Bryan. Los Angeles: K. Mason & Collins Co., 1921.

Happy 4th of July

As a guitarist, I'm obligated to do my "Jimi-thang" and do a cover of The Star Spangled Banner. No, really... they will revoke my membership if I don't!

The recording is a bit noisy, but I think it has a good feel. Enjoy and have a safe 4th of July.
