Pep Up! (Home Is A Thing To Eat) Pep Up! (Home Is A Thing To Eat)

Newest spoken word piece from the 4 Centipedes, uses drum machines, reconstructed keyboards, bass, and various synths with dialogue accompaniment. Dialogue from my poem of same name, a piece describing mental stability and integrity.

Alternate take of track 'Stillness'. Much more repetitive, uses similar percussion, loops, and guitars.

In __ Years (edit) In __ Years (edit)

This track focuses on age in a satirical matter, and uses a composition of white noise, keyboards, and piano. Has been edited from a 10 minute long track because it exceeded my current MB limit.

People & Cows People & Cows

A spoken word piece about over-population. Unlike most of my other noise/electronic work, this piece uses bass guitar and clarinet pieces, along with my trademark lo-fi style.

A Stately Pilgrimage A Stately Pilgrimage

A track that uses spoken dialogue as the main focus. In this track I use trip hop-esque percussion with piano to create a down-tempo accompaniment.

A somewhat lengthy mix of synths and distorted dialogue. The two separate tracks I felt fit a much more cohesive piece together. It did contain a third piece, but I dropped it.

This song (or my most conventional sounding track) samples the famous Amen break beat, along with a number of other instruments.

A short track, I use a simple rhythm made with using a drum machine, and distorted guitars, among other things.

Was originally a vocal track, but I decided the vocals took away too much from the sound.

Recording the dialogue and keyboards were really fun, though not altogether cohesive.

Like the rest of my soundtrack to my poetry collection, this song is inspired by a written piece but no dialogue is used.

A hip hop-influenced piece, inspired by a line from 'Rome And Juliet'.

Jungle-esque beats and orchestral strings, and lo-fi keyboard riffs accompany a spoken word performance of repetition.
