This is my first publicly purchasable piece of music (how exciting) Check it out on iStockAudio! Outcasts features a monotone piano base with offset grungy percussion and subdued bass line. This track also includes fluttering string windup and a distant piano feature. This track is titled “Outcasts” because of its...

Listen to Quiet Dark Forest If you’ve listened to any of the other tracks on my site, you can probably guess that I love soundtracks. I enjoy creating a pseudo soundscape if you will. This was quickly titled Quiet, Dark Forest. Enjoy....

Listen to Inspiration I’ve been working on this for about 6 months on and off now.  The flute is a recent addition.  I love tonal music (I’m a soundtrack geek) with some light and well-placed dissonance to evoke some type of emotion.  What emotion it is will be different for...

Listen to Gold In 2007, one of my friends and I started the “weekly challenge.” We would choose a single word and have exactly one week to do anything creative surrounding it, whether art, music, poetry, etc. This was the outcome for Gold....

Listen to All the Bright Day Long This piece was inspired by a poet who lives in New York City. His name is Daniel Donatacci and his words are very moving. The untitled piece starts with the words “All the Bright Day Long, the horrified soul waits for the change...
