Created back in 1999 with the help of alonetoner K.Scot. I had translated the english lyrics into portuguese - then just decided to record both languages at the same time.

This is another version of the same tune used in Dana's Song. I just changed the lyrics. It was created back in 1999 with the help of Alontoner K.Scot.
This is my own way of looking at a beautiful text - Psalm 139.

This is another guitar heavy piece, however there are three synth parts, but they further back in the mix. The name is from a dream of moving back to Vancouver BC.

This is part of a new body of work, centered more on guitar than synth, yet treating the guitar as I do the synth. This is still a work in progress, and I am open to input.

I love it when words sound cool in songs. Not the meaning of the words, just the way they sound. When they go along really well with the rhythm. So I wrote this song with only one purpose: to make the words sounds cool. I didn't care what I was…

I wrote this song after my brother passed away a couple years ago. His girlfriend of 4 years asked me to write the music to a poem she wrote. This is what it turned out to be.

I wrote the music to this song while playing around on the piano, thought it sounded nice. But for a long time i left it like that cus I couldn't think of how to develop it.

An experiment that became a meditation.

This is my english version of Heysátan by Sigur Rós. It's not a direct translation but it's in principle the same song.
I know the guitar is a bit out of tune. The capo messed it up. Sorry for that.

Just a track... I wanted to make. Messing with vocals. I hate my voice a lot, but maybe I'll grow to tolerate it. Slightly.

This original melody idea was jotted down in October 2003 in Harmony Assistant, and I had written it thinking that someday I'd make it a real song with lyrics. While playing the tune on the computer, my daughter came in and said she liked it…

This is an instrumental celebration of numbers such as 4 and 650. If you do not like 4 and 650 you can pretend it's about your favorite numbers instead, I won't mind so long as you don't go around pretending that I wrote this piece for 33 or 550.

Written today.

Another instrumental. Several years ago I got a Behringer V-amp, and the first day I had it I wanted to play around with some of the odd guitar tones.
This was the result of that playing around.

Just a simple instrumental. My wife was working on a new piano style one night, and when she was done practicing, I decided to try my hand at it. I flubbed up the very first chord, but I loved the way my flub sounded, so I wrote a whole song…
