Various Projects & Personal Compositions
  • Tumult (All - Keyboards/Programming/Guitar/Rec/Mix/Master) - This is just kind of a rambling recording. It is way longer than it should be, but I was having fun ;).  It has a notable change around the 7 minute mark, so it is kind of broken into two parts.
  • Bailando con las Fantasmas (All - Keyboard/Programming/Rec/Mix/Master) - This was done for a dance performance for a dance presentation by Sarah Leversee at the National School of Fine Arts in Mexico City. It is based off of a simple initial theme from the song that preceded it in the performance - Walk Away by Nitin Sawhney.
  • Promised Land (Keyboard/Programming/Rec/Mix/Master) - This was also done for a dance performance. The singer (Sarah Leversee, Artistic Director of Art as Action) was also the dancer and this was her first recorded or really even performed song.  I did the mixing/mastering as well.
  • Shade Intro (Keyboard/Programming/Rec/Mix/Master) - This doesn't have the best mixing/mastering quality, but I liked some of the sounds and layering. Vocals by Mara Corti.
  • Ceremony Intro - (Keyboard/Programming/Rec/Mix/Master) - I've cut off everything but the intro of this because the rest is a musical theatrical performance with a lot of spoken word. This was for a group called Angels of Alchemy. Singers (in order of singing in first part) are: Ariana Saraha, Mara Corti, Marta Aarli, and Meagan Chandler. Cameron Powers played the Oud part at the end.
  • Fary Suck - (Keyboard/LoopEdit) - This is a random little ditty I made back in 2000 or so using my friend Jeremiah Johnson's loop editor. I used pre-existing sounds, but I played in all the parts and put together the sequence. Pretty simple, but I still enjoy it, so I'm posting it.

 

Bee Simonds & Me - two random recordings done for fun with Bee Simonds, who I've worked with in several projects - first has some mixing, second is just fun ;)


Young Lust (Bee Simonds, Jeremiah Johnson, Justin White and me) - I played keys, kit drums and hand percussion (alternated) in this band. These recordings are all from a live show. We had awesome chemistry and Bee, Jeremiah and Justin were awesome to collaborate with.


MPDP (Lori Crotser, Dave Crotser, Jose Ramas and me) - This was a prog-rock band I was in from about 2001-2003.  We spent a good amount of time messing with alternative rhythm structures, but mixed it with more pop/funk sound to make it more enjoyable for a broad audience.  I always intended to get into keys in the band, but I ended up moving unfortunately. It was a great band, with great friends, and I was sad to leave.
