Self Type Product

Here’s another tune I call “Self Type Product”, or “STP” for short. It will likely end up as track 7 on Greyleaf, and will also probably have real drums for the full album version.

The song, whose genre I would describe as “tech grunge,” is about how social media is bad, and if I were smart, I’d quit like Carl King.

Happy Halloween! Here’s a new tune, “Greengrass”, from an album I’ve been working on called Greyleaf. There are four Pantera-inspired Easter egg riffs in there. Can you find them all?

Tracking the guitar solo for Travis Orbin's 'Parvenu'

Quite a while ago, Travis reached out and asked if I’d contribute a guitar solo for his album “Silly String III”, and here’s the result. Apparently the song was composed using the Persian scale, which I had never heard of, but was a nice place to start. Of course a bunch of pentatonic and chromatic licks snuck in there since I composed the solo by just playing with the track over and over again. I hope you dig it, and suggest you go buy the album!

Let's turn a bike ride into some music

On this short episode of “Computational Composition”, “worlds are colliding” as I try to encode a bike ride into a new tune.

Synchronized Seasoning

Hey, after like a decade the album is finally out, and with it two fresh tunes, “Rockwell C” and “Reseasoned (The Cyclic)”.

All the rest were remixed, remastered, and with any programmed drums (and samples) replaced by much cooler and badasser real drums. Take a listen on bandcamp, YouTube, or anywhere else you like to consume musics.
