Moody, ambient track with a bit of clicky rhythm to it. This is what happens when I compose music when I've got a headache.

Love is a slippery beast.
Just when you think you've got a firm hold of it, it squirts out of your hands like a piece of wet soap and ends up somewhere in India on a spiritual quest for an obscure guru.

The "chorus" riff started off with me trying to rip off "Shallow" by Porcupine Tree. Don't think I'm really in PT territory anymore though.
Track 7 from "They Are Killers"

Not originally intended as an acoustic song...but I couldn't get the big riff at the end to sound right with big distorted guitars, and then I realized on acoustics it might sound like it had a little Days Of The New influence.

A track for a relaxation CD that evolved into something just a little different.

I mostly wanted to make music with a funky clav line I'd come up with, so this is it. For the voiceover, I unabashedly used an awesome monologue by Ken Nordine.

This is track 8 of 8 from my RPM project, 222: Improvisations for 6 Instruments. I recorded an 8:38 improvisation on six instruments, and then deconstructed it into 8 separate tracks featuring subsets of those instruments. This is the track that…

Unaccompanied Bebot. What is Bebot, you ask? It's an iPhone app, and a great one at that!

That's as in Metheny and Mays, of course. And they I am not. But I still give it a go. These are the first two instrument tracks I recorded in this improv extravaganza: electric piano and electric guitar.

This time around it's the unique combination of bass clarinet and Bebot, the iPhone synthesizer.

This is sort of a skeleton version of this song...I have an intro in mind, but don't have time to write it right now. So named because it's primarily in 7/4.

I came up with the main bass riff on my electric bass, but after recording it I was unhappy with the tone, so I used a sampled upright bass. On top of that is a layer of doodling "lead guitar" (played on my bass), a dreamy semi-harsh organ sound…

TRACK 1-Dueling realities----To protect what once was his true identity, the conscience has split the personality. Leaving him disorientated, powerless, isolated and paranoid.

TRACK 2-Jesus Seed----Robbed of his innocence by a pedophilic priest (which becomes the singular cause of the fractures now developing in his mind) separates him from a future and from happiness.

TRACK 4-Shivers---- His young mind now haunted by these atrocities. The effects of mans inhumanity to man on his psyche creates further disillusionment with reality.

TRACK 6-Ferocity in man---- His realization that society is filled with contradictions. Emotionally conflicted by rage, apprehension, narcissism and despair. People in general now are seen as parasites that need to be eliminated.

Welcome to your first lesson in post-apocalyptic ballroom dancing for Martians and Manhunters alike. The track is not really cha-cha, but more like futurejazz, or 1960s mood music done by robots and mutants. 1-2-cha cha cha!

Of course, the title also reeks of jealousy because I couldn't create an IDM track even if I tried. So instead, here's a heavy, layered electronica track that reeks of faux glitchery and IDM-ishness.
