I came up with the initial rhythmic riff on my bass, then looped it to create the basis for this track. Then, I layered another "lead" bass track on top of that, added some percussion, and finally topped it off with an electric piano-ish sound…

I get to say that it borders on hip-hop because there’s a hip hop drum loop and a hip hop drum kit on it. I have no idea what to call it other than “electronic”. With a piano.

Opened for Hentai Improvising Orchestra at 1919 Hemphill in Fort Worth. A 26 minute piece, I had to edit it down to this because of some nasty noise spikes on the louder bits. So whats left is a very sleepy piece.

Another electronica styled piece for Ocarina of Time's Lost Woods. I think I made the melody too low, what do you think. Other then that I think I captured the ecentricity of the song through this mix. Also the choi adds a bit of fidelity I think.

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 :)

That twanging sound at the beginning of the song is me putting my acoustic through an amp with all knobs on 10. Acoustics feedback at 440mhz, which is an A note. The song is in A. It kind of sounds like a high tension electrical wire.
Uploaded
This song went through multiple iterations before coming out like this. It was a great song to play live. Did anyone catch the tip of the hat to "Fire and Rain" at the very end of the song?
Uploaded
This song was written long before it was recorded, though it stayed pretty much the same from day one of its creation until the studio about 4 years later. My favorite part is my guitar riffs near the end. My least favorite part is my crappy singing.
Uploaded
This one is a classic case of "Chasing The Demo".
In other words, I am not happy with it. The demo versions had a ton more feel and groove. This one sounds rushed and doesn't do the song justice. Oh well, such is life when you are on a budget…

The close friend of mine who helped engineer this session said my gtr sounded like a swarm of angry bees. That's the best compliment I can think of. This was a mayhem producer when played live. I barely was able to keep it together in the studio…

Probably one of my better gtr riffs/rhythm parts in those days. The song is always borderline going off the tracks...but it was fun to play live.

This is pretty experimental for me, and even I feel it is way out there. This is a chronicle of a man descending into madness after discovering the truth in the words he has said and deeds he has committed.
