Thug's Epiphany Thug's Epiphany
Featuring Rex and Tae Money (sorry, I don't even know their real names). Tight beat. Excellent 1st verse. Decent Chorus.
Oleander Overture Oleander Overture
Ambiguously evocative, yet warm and dramatic. I like how this turned out. I had to fight myself every step of the way to resist the temptation to program drums over the top.
Catchy drums with trumpet riff Catchy drums with trumpet riff
Oh, by the way, if you make millions of dollars using any of my tracks when I couldn't, my wife won't ever speak to me again. So...be careful not to make any money with my stuff.
Colorized Anthem Colorized Anthem
Simple bass and drums layered with brass and string themes
Piano and Percussion Piano and Percussion
I REALLY like this beat.I recorded a talented friend of mine, Rante Malone playing piano, and then had him track bongos over the mix. Later, I dropped a sick drum beat. It has a raw, lo-fi feel to it.
God is in Control God is in Control
This is the first recording I made with Shaun Brazell. Despite the fact that the mix is amateurish, the song is well written, the vocal performace is stron, and its generally easy to listen to.
Magic Magic
I created this instrumental from some chords that Shaun gave me. Its a little ... hmm ... *fruity* sounding. Not real edgy, if you know what I mean, but it is unique--and, in my opinion, worth a listen.
Decubitus Decubitus
This has an malicious and violent energy that's hard to describe. Volatile and psychotic with moments of lucidity. Distorted bassline, huge drums, strings sliding all over the place.
The Ghost of Thaddeus The Ghost of Thaddeus
A tangled symphonic tribute to the arcane and the impenetrable.
Ignis Fatuus Ignis Fatuus
A phantasmogorical journey of epic proportions toward a saturnine dystopia.
Always Always
How romantic...My old friend Shaun Brazell wrote this for some Jane Doe. I helped out with the packaging. By far the most listened to track on this page.

This was the written by Shaun and myself, and performed by his group, "Broken Silence." It even got a few weeks of play on the local radio station.
Picture Perfect--Live Performance Picture Perfect--Live Performance
Live performance of the preceding track.
I remember I remember
This is probably my favorite track on this page. Shaun wrote it and played piano. I added bass and drums, and recorded the whole thing. It tells a story and has more pathos than Shaun's other work.
Baby your love Baby your love
This recording is terribly sloppy and unprofessional. However, having said that, it is a really great song.
You Told Me You Told Me
The first, and most successful Broken Silence radio track. People seemed to like this one, although I always felt it was somewhat melancholy.
Ultimate Club Beat Ultimate Club Beat
This is a hyped up club track. Sorry if its overmastered. As always, if you ask nicely, I'll give you the natural track for the asking. By the way, don't miss the sick breakdown at 1:36
Chinatown Chinatown
This track has a really cool beat, with some wierd chinese instruments over the top. All the rappers I played this for were falling over themselves to "flow" on it, but nothing ever really materialized.
