Harbinger Event (Album version -demo) Harbinger Event (Album version -demo)
This is a demo version of a new song. I call it the "album version" because I intend to compose and/or mix alternate versions. This song was composed using the same "visual" technique that I used for Miracle of Sequencers.
Harbinger Event (Garage Mix) Harbinger Event (Garage Mix)
My first alternate mix of Harbinger Event. Like the original, it was done in 2009. It includes slightly different instrumentation and a whopping 5 seconds of additional music! :D
Chinatown Jam - acoustic Chinatown Jam - acoustic
I composed the main theme in this song circa 1988. Back then, it was purely pentatonic. While it is more or less in the key of B now, the pentatonic roots are still apparent. Like most of my songs from 1995, it is largely improvised.
Synthprov - Lament Over Lost Time Synthprov - Lament Over Lost Time
This synthprov was done in one take with no preconceived ideas. The use of string sounds gives it majestic feel. I think it's the most fluid of my improvs as much of it really doesn't sound improvised. Close your eyes and let it flow through you.
Improv 2 - Keep It Simple Improv 2 - Keep It Simple
This song has an improvised intro that leads into a simple chord progression that is played more aggressively with each iteration. Hence, the title. Needless to say, this is the least improvised of the 3 acoustic improvs.

FAQ
Why would I need a license?
A license is needed if you want to use the music for anything else than just listening for your pleasure. Typical uses are
- freestyling over a beat
- licensing music for use in TV or for a movie
- remixing or use audio samples
What are the license options and what are the differences between those?
We offer up to 5 license templates (Basic, Premium, Track Out, Unlimited, Exclusive) and it's up to the artist which ones he/she wants to make available. Each license comes with different perks. In general, the higher the price, the better the perks.
You can click on each feature on the left side of the comparison chart above to learn more about each one.

When will I get the track I purchased?
You can download all related files immediately after your purchase. We also email you a one-time download link for a download later.
How can I remove the audio tag from the track?
A "tagged beat" is a demonstration version of an instrumental that contains distinct audio watermarks that typically play throughout the entire track. The purpose of a producer tagging his/her instrumental is to prevent piracy and to encourage serious recording artists to purchase a license.
To get a tag-free audio please make sure you purchase a license which features "untagged audio".

I purchased a $1 download, why is the beat still tagged?

What is a stem / trackout file?
A Stem file is an audio file that contains a track split into several musical elements: A drums stem, a bassline stem, a harmony stem, and a lead stem for example.
The Stem file also usually includes the original stereo master of the track for standard playback.
The Stem file also usually includes the original stereo master of the track for standard playback.
Why would I need a stem / trackout file?
A trackout file gives you much better control. Imagine you rap over a beat and you realize the percussions take the focus away from your vocals. With a trackout file
you can simply tone down the percussion and the focus is now on the vocals. With a trackout file you have much more flexibility and a whole different level of control.
I brought Endeavour to life in 1995 when I recorded 9 of my compositions to DAT. I finally made a CD master in 2002 complete with liner notes and artwork. For various reasons, Endeavour was dormant until 2007. Then, took another relatively brief haitus until the summer of 2009. Since then, I've been doing some serious work on new songs. I hope to have 8-10 new songs ready for the public sometime in the next 200 years. ;^)Band/artist history
To date, this band has had only one member . . . me. It is quite possible that I will collaborate with other musicians sometime down the road. I'm certainly open to that idea.Have you performed in front of an audience?Not at this time.

Recently, I have started to play drums. Well, electronic drums. I currently own a Yamaha YDD-60 kit. I am also considering learning to play left handed guitar. However, I have recently become more interested in learning to play a Chapman Stick because I am fascinated that it is a string instrument that can be played much like a keyboard.Contact
