Artist picture
Canadian composer of original jazz fusion.
I studied classical composition at Carleton University. I then moved to Montreal to study jazz composition with Andrew Homzy and Joe Sullivan. I am currently studying counterpoint in the Baroque style. My plan is to meld classical with jazz harmonies scored for an electronic orchestra.

Story behind the song
This tune was inspired by King Crimson's piece discipline. I like the way the guitars interweaved with each other. This is the second version. On the first, I had used 2 guitars. However, after several hours of frustration, the guitar parts wouldn't line up. Then I tried to notate the piece and export the file as MIDI and attach a sound to the MIDI file. This turned out perfectly. After much less hours, I had the whole thing re-recorded and it sounds a lot better now. The title of the piece comes from 2 things that are going on in my life right now. First is I am learning Mandarin. The second is I am moving to Toronto. I decided to name the piece after the Mandarin word for Toronto du¨­l¨²n du¨­ . I anglicized the word and called it "Down Low Down¡±. In Chinese characters it is: ¶àÂ׶à. I hope you enjoy the piece.
