Partly about the wars in the Middle East, partly about a dream I had when I was 8, partly about all sorts of random other stuff.

This was intended to go much longer than it did, and take a darker or heavier twist...but instead it just ended.

This song was composed just by selecting random chord names in the piano roll in Fruity Loops, and then going from there. The offset piano melody in the beginning was a happy accident (in that I painted it at the wrong offset in the step sequencer…

This got its name because I thought it sounded like it could be a section in a Pelican song. I went to Wikipedia to look up Latin names of pelican species and settled on this one.

Straight-up rock song, the first guitar-driven song I wrote during these sessions and one of my favorite songs I've written/recorded so far.

This was more of an experiment with a couple synthesizers and abusing them with distortion and ring modulators.

Clocking in at just over a minute, this was something a song that I started on and then kind of gave up on.

Acoustic Dub from Ambient Black, also used by Roadtrip Nation (television show).

First song I made after being lazy about making music for a few years. The whole thing took me a few weeks. I feel it should be noted that the song quotes a short passage from Nine Inch Nails' "Eraser." I'm not a very creative lyricist.

im getting better at the whole recording thing, its still a tad choppy tho. hope ya like it

This is a track I've been working on for quite a while so I am glad to finally have it out of my head. I have a kind of love/hate relationship with time and its humble functionary, the clock. Ticking, in particular, is something I am ambivalent…

newest recorded music, just a rough mix, a teaser one might say. guitar doesnt stay in tune much these days, you cant really notcie till the end, but its all good...eh, ish.

This track is off the third CD. The title is related to playing style which is centered around tappping. Recorded with my Huss and Dalton MJC in open D tuning

From the second CD. This composition was inspired by memories of a stream close to where I was raised in San Diego. We lived in University City, a new suburb from 1964 to 1978. It wasn't built up back then so you could walk to many canyons…

a boy named crow there has to be more to this than metaphors if i were you and you were lost without me this sadness is bigger than the truth and i could walk right through you driving towards my destiny my misery and purpose left, to exaggerate…

A little something that came out of playing with the Max4Live content. The guitar sound, which I'm particularly happy with is a combination of my GT-10, CamelSpace and the M4L buffer shuffler.

Another rock ballad. Lyrics by Gordy Macdonald.

wonderland what is the sound of the last few minutes of life she said I wouldn't feel a thing, but women lie what is the color of the last thing you'll ever see frozen for all eternity and these things inside my brain tell a wicked tale and…

star just a star on a sheep on the side of a car and the picture in your hand from a distant land with a story can't believe this is happening to me another mediocre man trapped in a master plan it's really not the star but the dream inside…

A hymn with a melody of Celtic origin.

When You Worship Her Like A Goddess And She Feels Nothing But Cruel Disdain For You

Just to see if we could. We sort of could.

Electro-like remix that I entered into a contest organized by the Dutch radio station SlamFM. Since none of my inquiries where ever answered, I'm uploading the full thing now. Also to put it into perspective, this is the original: http://www…

Soon to be released on Amber's CD Album "Forever" "When daylight stills to grey and all the world is silent, we listen to the stillness sounds..." Written just for Amber by Susan Evans McCloud and Richard W. Smith this paints a picture of a family…

Something I recorded a couple years ago. If I ever do a "Celtic Christmas" CD, it'll probably sound like this...

this is another oldish track! should have some newish stuff soon!

A song recorded today. Lyrics by Gordy Macdonald. Lyrics: How can I make a promise? And how can I make it real? How can you say you love me When your lips don't move at all? How can you see it coming? And how will you know it's me? How will…
