Minimal Experimental
This piece can be described in three words: minimal glitch dub. It's built from glitch noises, a virtual synth, and a few drum samples drenched in reverb with some delay effects here and there. The piece doesn't have much to the structure, it's more of a texture with slight changes. This piece was inspired by the music of "Pole" which I just started listening to earlier this year.

DownTempo
Very chill - nice and hypnotic - the beats will take you down to a deeper state - and the words shall float in front of you... A mellow take on Danny K's track.

Jungle
The current version of Standing While Walking. This piece is still being developed - but even in it's current state, it rocks. It's an experimental dnbish jungley track. Serious beats my friends...

Breakbeat
funky funky - a groove on the moove, step in my music, let the funk begin to sing... I'm gonna make you boogie at 140BPM - a dance tune with a ninjatune vibe

Funky Breaks
A fun and upbeat positive groove - get up and stomp! It started w/ the guitar samples from a random jam - then the stomp idea formed, then the beat came. I don't think this is the final version.

Instrumental Rock
A catchy tune based on an a funky groovy progression. You may find you head rocking out to the song... if this happens, don't worry - go with it, and soon, you'll be on your feet doing some kind of wiggly side to side dance.

Breakbeat
An electro breaks track that has a bit of that 'spy theme' feel to it, but a more experimental approach. The track was built from drum loops, drum samples, and a few runs of my guitar through a Tone Port by Line6 to generate the synth parts and guitar jabs.

Electronic Dub
A laidback, minimal groove w/ lots of bass. Very moody and shifty - almost Dub, almost Drum n' Bass - I'm not sure what it is.

Abstract Ambient
Textured Walls (are the best) - A mellow piece which blends Ambient with IDM built from some improvised recordings. Most sounds came from my Novation Nova - arranged in ACID. Guitar and Keyboard parts played live.

Instrumental Rock
This is one of those songs that has sat around unfinished for more than a year. Every few months, I'd pull it out, make some edits, record some new parts, then save it away. Finally... it's here for you to check out... OMG... yes, it's true, it's "That Scat Song" - the song you've been waiting for. Click it on, sing along, it's That Scat Song.

Breakbeat
a rocking track - breakbeat and rock. the rhythm guitars were in an open C tuning, the lead guitars were in a dropped C tuning.

Drum n' Bass
Squelchy noises sneak from side to side and around the solid bass which pounds along a tight line as the high energy guitar slashes about, chuging to the beat as if it were running over hot coals.

DownTempo
Laid back groove with some chilled out keyboard chords on top and an echoy flute droping in on the high end with some melodic action.

Breakbeat
kinda cheesy, but it's a good times track... like you're crusin' down the road in your slick sports car... the sun shining, lens flaring off of your sunglasses as you... ha, yeah whatever. just give it a try.

DownTempo
This is a remix of 10 different songs into 1. The goal was to create a remix from 'The Wired CD' using only samples lifted from that CD. No other synths, samples, voices, instruments, etc. were added. It turned out to be some type of Jazzy Hip Hop thing.

Funky Breaks
I'm sorry, but I have to blow you away now - yes, it's true, this track kicks ass. A full plate of Breaks with a side of IDM, Electro, and Funk. Served with a jazzy vibe and psychedelic ride... get on now... There's Not Much Space.
