Description : This is the latest song I am working on (October 2010). I used a couple of loops from MINOR2GO. I actually re-wrote the piano part because It sounded wierd when I slowed it down to 130 bpm. I used MINOR2GOs string loop without rewriting it. The song has a nice piano intro and then a little intro solo before the whole band breaks in. Drop me a review if you get the chance. Thanks!
Very nice chops indeed. I love the modes you change in between chords. I am a sucker for dual lead guitar lines... Fun and superb job. Ends a bit abruptly...I wish I could hear more ! Cheers and good job - Bilbozo
My biggest influence is probably Dream Theater. They tend to use great variation in modes in their music. I plan on finishing this one once I get a new computer. My old one crashed and I lost a large amount of work. I learned a lesson in the importance of regularly backing up my recording sessions. Anyway, thanks for checking out my song. I am now off to return the favor.
Interesting piece. There were points where I was torn as to which way to go (with the guitar or the piano). Each seemed to be saying follow me. Then when everything kicked it the two paths became one.
Thanks JohnBoutilier! I am glad you like it. It will be a bit before I get this one completed. It's a work in progress. I hope to have it done in about a month or two. Work and College classes are keeping extremely busy right now. I listened to some of your songs and must say they sound great. Thanks again man!
This is great GJ.I love the dynamics,everything complements very well.
If I haven't said it before,you are an excellent guitarist and I look forward to what you do next...you seem to be growing in all areas with each track.
Thanks Kikajon! I have some major work to do on completing this one. I haven't decided what direction to take the rest of the song yet. It may also be a while before I can complete it due to having to go to work and attending college classes at the same time. But, I should find the time to get it done sometime in the next two months. Thanks for fav-ing man!

Description : This is my newest creation, at a stage very near to completion. No third-party mastering or mixing, as with all my tracks. Just have to fix a few tiny things. I FINALLY WAS ABLE TO MIX EVERYTHING IN THE SAME SESSION. This song has all human-played instruments - no quantization or MIDI! My brother does all the vocals except for the interlude part, which I do. My other brother plays the rhythm guitar (a Gibson Les Paul Custom - only one of 12 in the world!!) and I play the accompanying guitar (a Johnny Mar Jag and PRS). He has a lot of guitars :P A good friend of ours, Ronnie, plays the bass and another friend, Freddie, plays the drums. The drum track was done in one take (had to use an electric drum set due to time constraints - but acoustic kits are so much better). Overall, pretty satisfied with the result. Let me know your thoughts.
Description : Feel free to check out the lyrics video on YT as well :) This is a new track based on the great vocals by Ashes and Dreams! Again, a mix of electronic/progressive/rock, any feedback is welcome
Description : The first track I sing on. Cheap stage mic & no fancy plugins. Heavily guitar laden to the point it's got a bit of a shoegaze thing going on. I pulled the lyrics out of my ass & yes, they're a bit silly.
Description : BIG UPDATE 26/02/2014 - So, this was an 18 min track that I have now successfully split in two. 2nd half I uploaded a few weeks ago (Things That Should Always Be, with the bouncy 2 min reggae intro). This is the first half, which has a new mix, a mega chill, meditative ending and a little jazz thrown in for good measure. Takes a few minutes for beat to really kick in. Constantly evolving electric guitar, bass guitar, acoustic drums and lead banjo driven by fat, busy 80BPM grooves with a bit of a reggae and shuffle feel. Also: synth choir voices, dulcimer, violin, cello, shimmering pads. Builds up gradually to nice and rocking and then gets taken back down for the big comedown chill. I really don't know what sort of genre this is except 'far out'. I think it sounds more like a live band than one guy playing instruments and manipulating a DAW. Not my best track but a bit of blissful, sunny island fun. Real positive vibe here so I hope you give it a chance to unfold and unfurl. Sit back, clear your schedule and immerse yourself in these trippy sonic experiments cooked up deep in my off-planet underground laboratory. I have to send the MP3 to Earth via space courier (not cheap).

Great track (I'd soften up the ending, maybe)
All The Best
