Yay. Solo piano.

Confession: Last time I did the song-a-day project, I came up with an idea from scratch every day. I intended to do the same thing this time around. This piece breaks that rule in two ways. 1. I wrote the opening part over the weekend. 2. That…

True to form, I used my new software to… do the same exact thing I’ve been doing most of this month. So far I definitely miss Logic for pure piano, but I’ll have to see if there are workarounds or things that I’m missing in Record that will make…

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. This is my second song using Record. I was going through a book on…

Transient texture experiment; also reverb envelopes. RPM number 10.

This is probably the least electronic-sounding of everything that I did from RPM 2010, although it still heavily uses samples (either self-sampled or from Freesound). That is me playing the harmonica, though. (No, really!) If the song makes…

Dark ambient unmastered track from my 2010 RPM Challenge submission.

Well, this is number 10, and with only 8 days left, I think we may be calling it on this one. There are alot of scraps left over, and even a few experiments left to showcase, including a three part duet! but alas, time is escaping into the void…

First track off my upcoming album Palettes To Burn, out March 5th! A remix of the song Ever Since ft. Michael Ackhurst.

Intro to my album, with help from Alfred Hitchcock himself.

The lead single from Palettes To Burn, featuring Vancouver vocalist Adaline.

This track started out from a Korean Restaurant sign that had letters missing, spelling Korean Aurant.

This track is one of my oldest, but I still like it.

not telling you what the song title means.

The russian sample was too good to pass up, I love when you hear the track come together in your head.

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…

This song is made up of all animal samples, besides the bass and drums. Video coming in the summer!

A theme song of sorts for me.

Nice flowing vocal track with the help of talented Michael Ackhurst.

Based on phone messages I received during a one year span, this track took a long time to complete, with many people adding awesome messages that needed to be in the song!

Second single off of Palettes to Burn, also featuring the lovely vocals of Vancouver artist Adaline.

Originally a band name my friend made up, this song took a life of it's own when Pim Boewens gave me his guitar parts.

Alfred Hitchcock has been a big influence on me through the years, easily one of the best directors ever.

A fun hip hop based track, one of the first tracks I ever did. The inspiration comes from Della Reese in Harlem Nights, when she fights Eddie Murphy. Classic.

Quick one, mad groovy. RPM #11.

A great remix done by Vancouver artist Calamalka. He shines a light on it from a totally different angle, and captures it with his own style.

This is the original version, the light to the dark of the other. The Max Ulis version ended up on my album, he did such a good job I couldn't pass it up.

Kind of a chillout, lullaby type tune. — Notes: I think the shaker comes in too strong. I think the intro goes on for probably 1 or 2 more phrases than it should.

soundtrack for a documentary.

An apocalyptic tale of what,s to come.

this is song is about all the times you make plans with someoneconstantly and they blow you off for no good reason like to sleep or play wow...lol it also gives a nod to the fireside bowl in our hometown chicago and how the neighbors stoped shows…

this is a song about zombies and zombie movies...this is also a rough demo version and its unfinished we are taking a different approach to recording it this time. if you are interested in seeing us live and live in or around chicago, look us…

This is just a blues progression that you have probably heard before. All instruments were played by Barry Morgan, and the song was mixed and mastered in his home studio.

A nice Spanish guitar piece composed and played by Barry Morgan. All instrumentation by Barry and mixed and mastered in his home studio.
