Welcome to my Music page. One of my main interests has always been music - both listening to it and creating it. Thanks mainly to my father, I've gotten a good start in full music production, and here are the first few fruits of my labor! I'm currently working on some ideas for a full-length techno-trance album. I'll be sure to post about it when I've made some progress. ;-)
In the meantime, you can download my stuff here! These music files are free and public-domain - feel free to distribute them if you like.
(11/25/05) Nothing new here - just updating the site to work with CSS and Firefox.
(12/24/04) A brand-new piano solo is now up! I've posted "Always Another Kiss", dedicated to my lovely mate. Merry Christmas!
These are my finished works so far. I hope you enjoy them. :)
| Title | Size | Time | Genre | Description |
| Always Another Kiss | 6.18 MB | 6:40 | Piano Solo / Ambient | I wrote this song for my mate, Firebringer, just before Christmas 2004. There will always be another kiss for you. |
| Nightmare (Remix) | 3.55 MB | 3:52 | Acid Techno / Ambient | This is a remix of Skye Kitsune's "Nightmare", an acid-techno piece he put together using FruityLoops. I offered to add some elements to it, and he in turn gave me permission to post it. |
| The Spacefarer | 6.92 MB | 7:33 | Melodic Trance | This is the final remix of my Spacefarer theme, which tells a story of a lone traveler on a journey through space. Could there be another spacefaring traveler out there somewhere? |
| The Spacefarer (ITG Mix) | 2.12 MB | 2:19 | Melodic Trance | This is a condensed remix of The Spacefarer that I submitted for the arcade game In The Groove. This music was not used in the game. |
| Snow Mixed With Rain | 3.95 MB | 4:18 | Ambient / Minimal | I created this song shortly after seeing this particular weather phenomenon for the first time in my life. It was beautiful, and so very peaceful... |
This section is for my experimental stuff. These songs (or song fragments) are basically just me experimenting with my programs and hardware, or sketching out ideas, seeing what works, etc. Don't expect anything great from this stuff, but enjoy it nonetheless. :)
| Title | Size | Time | Genre | Description |
| The Spacefarer (original mix) | 7.72 MB | 6:45 | Melodic Trance | This was the first version of The Spacefarer. I'm keeping it here for reference - compare this version to the final version listed above, to see what I've learned and how this song has evolved over time. |
| Experimentica | 3.41 MB | 3:43 | Techno-Trance | This was the first thing I did with Acid Music 3.0 - basically my tutorial project. It's pretty cookie-cutter in nature, but I learned a lot about the software in the process. |
| Guitar Practice | 3.33 MB | 3:38 | Acoustic Rock | This one just kinda happened on its own while I was exploring my loop folders. I've had a few people tell me this song would be good with lyrics. |
| Technostorm | 5.05 MB | 5:30 | Progressive Techno | Technostorm was my first serious attempt to tell a story through music. A thunderstorm approaches and moves overhead as rain crashes down, before the storm departs again. |
You might be curious as to what I'm using. :) Here's a list of my current equipment and software.
