A couple of Irish jigs I wrote and recorded on piano (using either Reason or Cubase and EWQLSO, I really don't remember) a few years ago. The arrangement is incomplete and one I meant to add a little icing to. I may have to dig up the Reason file…

Simple theme from the audio sketch book. I used to try and write a melody or two a day, most of the time I just put them on paper...this one I happened to record.

Guitar loop from 2008. First loop where I bounced between different tracks instead of building part upon part. Flawed, but for better or worse, I rarely record something twice (why I left in the pop in the initial bed loop, I have no idea - well…

Written and recorded in 2006 (I think). Another I hesitated to upload since it's so sloppy, but I am filing it under For the Sake of Posterity...Don't remember much, but I think I was using an Ibanez Artist semi-hollow body guitar, PodXT, '70s…

From 2006 or 2007. One of the first (and one of just a few) pieces I wrote using Reason. I was definitely listening to Patrick O'Hearne at the time...might have to buy some real piano samples.

Another guitar loop from 2008. Proof I can write "happy" music :)

Its a song that was inspired by a dream I had. In fact.. it was the soundtrack to the dream. The ending is purposely left with a feeling of being not finished, as I can't remember how the dream ended.
I hope you all like it :)

Another "jazzy" little number from the basement archives. Someone call the smooth jazz police before I ever do this again...

From the basement, one of the first things I ever recorded at home. My attempt to be a bit jazzy...

a song about music, and with strangeness in its heart - as always -, ending with a contemplative moment with Aldous Huxley.

Yesterday I bought a very lovely sample set from Soniccouture called [The Skiddaw Stones](http://www.soniccouture.com/en/products/p4-the-skiddaw-stones/).
Using the microKORG, GarageBand drum kits, and a cheap acoustic guitar. Beware, it is far from done. The final version will likely be longer and less repetitive (if possible).

Here's a partially-orchestrated preview of a song we're currently writing. Another big toe-tapper, this one, a lovely 6/4 piece, an ode to half-diminished sevenths, and minor ninths, wherever they may fall.
