I was thumbing a ride along a hot, deserted Caribbean road. When Steve pulled up in this vintage pre-war Chevy, I was very grateful. It just so happened he was heading to the same cantina I was, so we kicked back with a pitcher of mojitos…

I went over to Reg's place the other day and he sort of scared me. He was out on his deck, pitching butts and spilling gin that he couldn't afford. He was a mess and had a crazed look in his eyes. I could tell he was ruminating again about…

There are a bunch of bass tracks going on here. Headphones help pick out what's going on. This one came to me leaving Taos on the drive back to Phoenix, coming down out of the canyon. I suddenly became conscious of a disturbing dream from the…
Deadlines, freeways, appointments, things to do lists, expectations, getting older, not enough hours in the day to get everything done? ..... make each day and moment count! Thanks to Dave Matthews for a lick I threw in there. Enjoy!
title is self-explanatory, past tense however.
i really wanted a song that had the flow, emotional intensity and unpredictability of an ocean. perhaps that's a bit cliche.
done over the period of two months in a little dark room with an…
*apology for the artifacts
so this was a song sitting around for a while, didn't know what to do with...common occurrence. anyways, i wanted to create a song that had a bit of a 'grainy' vinyl feel to it, with nice, slightly distorted highs…
Its my first attempt at writing a piece for piano. I think this would probably best be played by two players..
if I ever write out the piece on paper, it might have to be so.
I would value any of your comments greatly, as I greatly want to improve…
My second attempt at writing a piece for solo piano. Quite obviously the inspiration were Philip Glass Steve Reich and Terry Riley.
I hope you like it.
Ha! I couldn't believe it when I heard this. I've got to tell you that I have played this very pattern on my congas many times - it is the quintessential consonant (i.e. congruent, enharmonic) 1.5:1 polymeter – aka 4 vs.6. The higher pitched piano notes playing 6 beats/bar and the lower (basically) 4 beats/bar. "The 4 pushes the 6 like a gorilla pushing a swing". It is easy to get lost in patterns like this because it can be listened to from the vantage point of either the 4 or 6. One of my favorite examples of this effect is "Carol of the Bells". Nice work.
This is our little bundle of joy now grown up to be 10 years old. She took up the flute this year at school and this is her first effort in front of my microphone.
She decided on the flute after watching some vids of Ian Anderson and Jethro Tull…
As the song says, this is a song I wrote for the RPM Challenge. I simply took my actual experience beginning at 12 midnight on February 1st, and a couple or three hours later I had my first song. The player takes away the intensity of this track…
Jarvis, yes it does have a "Wipeout" sound to it - I was trying to get that sort of vintage surf music feel into a drum pattern. Now if I can only find a guitarist to do that quick decending "doodle-loodoo-loodle-loodle-loodle-loodle-loodle" surf guitar lick at the very beginning... what in the world do you call that cool sound anyway?

Beautiful.
Debussy was truly one of the pioneer rock stars... thanks for illustrating that for us!
Massive. Nice work!
Your best yet! Awesome!
Way cool. Man, that's a lot of tracks!! Epic.
I find it fascinating that your first attempt at writing a piece for piano is in 7/8 time signature! Cool beans!

Nice work, Nina! My 12 year old son plays the flute as well, and Ian Anderson is a huge hit around our house too. Great collaboration.
Hilarious! Well done! **drooling**
Those must be space pants, because this is out of this world!
I must admit that I actually WAS singing along! Good one!
