Description : Here is a song I made last year for one of my machinima videos. It is probably my favorite song I have done so far, but the least popular of my videos. I kind of over did it with the filters on my vocals, but I wasn't comfortable singing at the time. I hope you will enjoy it.

Description : I posted this song some time back, but removed it after I entered a consultant agreement on the video with machinma.com. I decided to alter it so I could retain the rights to my music and give it away free. It is a song I made for a portal machinima video. It is only the second song I ever attempted vocals for, but it is fairly popular in the machinima community none the less. If you want to watch the video here is the link:

Description : I am pleased with my current momentum for making music. I made this one in only 2 days. I probably could have used a few more takes on the vocals and some more mastering of instrument levels, but I am trying to break the habit of obsessing over the details, so I just called it done.
I will let you enjoy interpreting the meaning of it. I hope you like it.

There is an acapella available for this track.

Description : Another Cinematic type track I did a while back. A kind of experiment combining strange different elements. I hope you enjoy it.

Description : I have got the idea that I want to start to work on creating more cinematic and atmospheric industrial type instrumental music, hopefully so I can eventually get an opportunity to work on some game and/or movie soundtracks of some kind. I hope you enjoy it.

Description : Just what the title says ;)

Description : This is the second collaboration I have finished with AppLe of DeaD. For this one we shared project files. All of the riffs and patterns were created by him. I substituted a couple of instruments, added lyrics/vocals and did the final mastering. I hope you enjoy it.

Description : Here is another one I created recently, also only an instrumental but sequenced for verses, chorus and bridge. I plan to create a video for it soon aswell.

Description : Here is my latest song. I had lyrics written and tried to add vocals to it, but it just didn't turn out as good as I had hoped. I thought it was such a great sounding instrumental that I decided to leave it as is rather then trying to redo the vocals.

The MP3 is on my website, and here is a link to the video I created for it using footage from the game Alan Wake, if you care to check it out:

Description : Here is the latest song I have been working on. It is missing vocals for the chorus. I didn't quite get them the way I wanted them on the first couple recording sessions, and I just got burned out on working on the song. It could have used a little more mastering too, but I decided to call it done and move on. I hope you enjoy it none the less. I am making the acapella for this song available too.

Description : Here is a song I didn't really finish and spend time mastering. I decided I am finished with it. It isn't the direction I want to go with music anyway.

There is also an acapella available from this song.

Description : Here is my 2nd finished song. After you guys gave me such nice comments on my first I was anxious to get another one done. This is a fairly short song. It has kind of a modern horror movie soundtrack sound to it I think. I wasn't sure what genre to label it, so I will just call it weird, because you probably will too, haha. I composed the whole thing, all the instruments. A couple of the instruments are made from sounds I recorded myself. For instance the long spooky sounding high pitched whine was originally me running my finger around a wine glass. I used Digital Orchestrator Pro, Cool Edit Pro, and FL Studio 8 (demo version). I hope you enjoy it!

Description : Just making some noise for fun.

Description : A song introducing a new character I am voicing, for my friend MGHAnimation www.youtube.com/user/Mendelevius . I am just experimenting with a new genre of influence here. What do you think about it?

Description : I watched a movie trailer today which had music that helped remind me how important the music is for setting the mood in films and such. It inspired me to make a quick track of trailor type music for a dark, strange type movie. Not that I make movies or music for them, but it was a fun idea to play around with. I hope you enjoy it.

Description : (I can't figure out why this doesn't play automatically on this player, you have to hit pause then play again. Can anyone explain why that is? Is it a problem with my file?)

Here is my latest song. It has been a while since I have finished one, so I am out of practice with the whole procedure. The message and vocal style will probably seem a lot harsh to most people, but I am fairly pleased with how it turned out. This is certainly closer to the kind of music that I prefer to listen to then most of my past songs.

I hope you enjoy it.

Description : I haven't created a song in a couple months now. I am a bit rusty (hence the title). I have been messing around trying to get a selection of instruments together so that I may start creating a more consistent style of music (though I have no idea what genre it will end up being related to).

This is something I kind of threw together today to try to get an idea of how some of my instruments will work together so that I may begin tweaking them. I may end up working more on it and adding vocals, but I haven't decided yet.

I would really love to hear some technical feed back. I have the feeling it my either have to much treble or compression. I would love any nit picking advice you are willing to offer on it.

Description : Here is a track I made for a machinima video. I used some dialog from an old driving educational film from the 50's. Here is a link to the video if you care to see it. The game is an older one that is free to download called "TrackMania".

Description : This is much more loud and aggressive then what you are used to from me, but I think it is the best way to convey the message. Besides, that is the kind of music I like to listen to, so I had to eventually make something like this.
I hope you enjoy it.

Description : I decided to just goof around and make a song in only 1 day, just to loosen up a little. I just picked a funny, off the wall topic and went with it. It was therapeutic for me, because I usually spend more then a week on each track with vocals. It has taught me that I do not need to waste the time over doing it. Enjoy the Waffles.

Description : This was a collaboration project with Chimpyguy878. He made some terrific instrument tracks that I feel I kind of ruined with distortion and effects. I had a whole song of lyrics written, but after over a week of working on the song, the vocal work still felt terrible. I spent to much time on this song. My ears ache and it ended up just sounding too overworked. I felt I should post it, none the less, because I spent so much time on it.

Thank you very much Chimpyguy878 for your help and input. I wish I could have made the vocals work with it as I had planned. I hope I didn't tarnish your instruments too bad.

Description : This is another song I did for a machinima video. I was hesitant to put it on Looperman, simply because the lyrics probably won't make much sense to anyone who isn't familiar with the characters from Half-Life 2. Hopefully you will like it regardless.

Description : For some odd reason, this track doesn't seem to start the first time you click play. You have to click it again, or push stop then play. I tried uploading it again, same thing. Sorry.

Description : This is my new song I made for my next video I am doing for machinima.com. It is weird, I know. It isn't the direction I plan on going with music, but it was sure fun to write the lyrics.

Description : I spent several hours on this one and I am pretty proud of it. I orchestrated the whole thing using FL Studio 8. I meant to make a song using some loops from the site, but I just got caught up in messing with my midi keyboard that I just went with it.

I feel it does a pretty good job at expressing the emotion that many of us experience when life seems to get mundane and frustrating. I am considering putting together a video to go with it using a bunch of various time lapse footage of things like traffic, offices and such. I hope you enjoy it. Please let me know what you think.
