I'll Be Around I'll Be Around
This was a fairly quick production, (artist was at performance deadline, I never went back to redo). I am playing all instruments (my drum work was acceptable) as well as musical composition, (the artist did contribute 1/2 the lyrics). I produced, en
Drownin' Drownin'
This is a production demo from a private client.. I am the producer, arranger, engineer and bass player on this one.
Where It's At Where It's At
This is an instrumental that can be rapped on, saxed on, strummed on or sung on. Originally written for a private rap client, I really loved it most as an instrumental. I composed, produced, engineered, played all instruments..
Back Again Back Again
Another private client, like most rock singers he came in with his guitar and sang, I did the rest (produced, engineered, arranged, played bass). In retrospect I didn't like the mic technique I chose, but everyone else seems to like it..
The Moon and the Silence The Moon and the Silence
This personal work placed within the top 500 Billboard picks of 1998, (amazing Steinway piano on this one).. I produced, composed, engineered, arranged and performed all but bass and drums..

A quick spot for a Lincoln commercial, I composed, produced, engineered and performed all.
Rumble Rumble
Yes, I write rap/hip hop beats too. Basically a rap group said "Write us a song and we'll do the rest", so I did. I produced, composed (all but lyrics), performed and engineered all (except the rappin')..
Havivi's Violin Havivi's Violin
This song was inspired by my first love and a violin I bought for her from a shop in Carnegie Hall (ironically called "Havivi's Violins").. I wrote produced, arranged and performed all but violin..
Reveal Reveal
Very cool duet. Also happy with my drum work (which I rarely ever am). Really a demo for the sake of placement. It started out personal, not getting too serious about prod. value, then suddenly I really liked it, (too late to redo), so here it is, no
Forget My Face Forget My Face
This is another Byl Cote tune, I am doing everything I did on "Drownin'"..
Different Eyes Different Eyes
This was a "for hire" piece by a female who wanted an original to shop her voice. I play all instruments, produce, arrange, compose, and engineer..
Daybreak Daybreak
Yep. Jazz. I composed, produced, engineered and play all but bass, drums and sax. This was originally a submission for a talk show theme in 1998, (show never made it to air)..
