A new site (this one) is in the process of launching. May be a few bumps the next day or so as any kinks are worked out. Stay tuned!

The fourth track from "Homework - Vol 1" is now available on Bandcamp.com. "Rust' - First of the class projects this year (actually a final project for a general Mac music production course at Berklee that was the intro to Logic 8) and was really the first song that I'd written/produced end-to-end in Logic 8. Also marks the first time in quite a few years that I played guitar on a track. (Guitar was my principal instrument for a long time but hasn't been for almost 10 years now). Recently revisited this mix for release and applied a good portion of what I picked up in the Logic Pro class. The style is a bit more straight-ahead and actually would probably work well for commercials or TV usage. I always thought this would work for an alternative theme opening for something like "House".

The track is on Bandcamp.com and is available for purchase (name your own price folks. Show an indy musician some love.), and the player is in the music section.

04.17.09 - THIRD TRACK FROM "HOMEWORK - VOL 1" RELEASED -
"THE PITTER PATTER OF LITTLE BEATS..."

The third track from "Homework - Vol 1" is now available on Bandcamp.com. "The pitter patter of little beats..." is an IDM'ish tune that features some gritty bit-crushed beats and sliced vocal samples that are used percussively. This song began as a class project for Berkleemusic.com (Berklee's online school) class focused on Apple Logic Pro 8. The parameters of the assignment were to demonstrate the three distinct ways of programming drums in Logic, namely through the EXS24 sampler, the Ultrabeat drum synth, and via Apple Loops. When I decided to finish/flesh out the song for release, I also decided to experiment a little with cutting up a vocal sample and using it in a rhythmic fashion. Logic proved to not be quite what I needed in that regard, due to the fact that I don't own ReCycle so I couldn't easily slice the sample and map it to the EXS24. So I pulled a sample, provided by my friend Jess, into Ableton Live 8 and used the 'Slice to MIDI' feature. Jammed a sequence I liked, and then pulled that back into Logic for final editing.

The track is on Bandcamp.com and is available for purchase (name your own price folks. Show an indy musician some love.), and the player is in the music section.

I'm working on a parallel release alongside of 'Ether' which will be an anthology of works that started either as class projects or are general experimental works (compositionally and/or production). The release is entitled 'Homework Vol 1" and is also available on Bandcamp.com. The player and links can be found in the music section.

After dealing with extreme unreliability from the last music hosting service (which shall now go unnamed), I've now discovered a new service that looks great.

The first two tracks of my upcoming Ambient/Grooves release 'Ether" are available via Bandcamp.com and are linked in my music section.

Long story short, you can hear songs in their entirety via live stream, OR you can download the song in one of a number of different formats (MP3, high bit rate MP3, AAC, FLAC, OggVorbis), some for free, and some YOU set the price for. (Yes like Radiohead did last year). Please check out the tunes and if you like them, be sure to show the love.
