Description : a song i made last night, after watching on the news that due to a weird virus spread in the city, all "infected people" should not come in contact with others...basically being quarantined...sounded like a plot from a movie to me as well, but it's true...and i'm sick...(you can actually hear it a bit on the vocals)
my apologies for the occasional clipping and bad overall sound...working with the flu - or whatever it is - isn't exactly the best to judge mixes...

Tags : | Dance | 3.80 MB

Description : just a simple electro tune i was working on to which i decided to add a couple of acapellas...actually, spoken poems, by evrim and eshar, and a third one i found in the acapella section that says "there's no time like the present, your time is now"...can't remember who uploaded it though - sorry - (thank you guys!)...all made in FL studio 8

Description : a punchy electro song...there's not really much more to it...again, using FL studio...

Description : this was originally conceived to be a 30 sec. musical background for a radio spot...i wanted a dirty sound, pretty much in a Justice - like fashion, so i played a lot with distorsion and filters on synths...i liked the first 30 seconds, so i took it from there and tried to make a full song out of it...as usual, i couldn't keep it in a simple, straightforward structure, so i ended up with a more pop, "vanilla" sound...i used a couple of acapellas by holly (with modified tempo and melody). Made using FL studio, melodyne for the vocal changes, and cubase (cause i just can't work with tempo changes on melodyne!!)

Tags : | Acoustic | 3.03 MB | Featured

Description : this song is based on the acapella "time" by Holly...i tried to respect the jazzy feel, but of course, couldn't stick to one simple style...the result is a bit strange, but not quite a hard one to absorb, i think...i added a second vocal line and some choirs towards the end, but those don't even get close to the quality of Holly's work...

Tags : | Rock | 2.06 MB | Featured

Description : a short song i was asked to do for a "short musical road trip movie" project...this being though for the first scene, and the indications being "a rock song plays as the main character stands in doubt and confused in the middle of the street under the pouring rain"...

Tags : | Rock | 2.39 MB | Featured

Description : the second song for that same "short musical road trip movie"...3rd scene...indications were "the group arrives at a creek, they unload the van and make a fire...sit around it while eating marshmallows, play guitar, etc..." for some reason i though of a folky-country tune while keeping it pop-rock...

Tags : | Electronic | 4.18 MB

Description : i came up with a simple arpeggio on a plucky sample, and took it from there...i wanted to add some vocals, so i looked for some acapellas in looperman to work with, and then i found holly...i only used her voice at the ending section, but it was worth it; she has an amazing voice! i actually had to change the original pitch and melody from her original recording, and i also added some simple vocal harmonies...special thanks go to holly...check our her acapellas!
(i made this track entirely on fl studio 8)

Description : once again, i was amazed with holly's acapella sample, the one called "another short one" or something like that...and i had to put some music to it...i just had to...it was also a fun challenge to take, since her acapella already has a second harmony line, which sets the tune to E and then to D, i think...so i tried to make things a bit interesting, and started the song in F#m and saw where that would take me...it gives the song a bit of tension, sort of like suspense, i believe...i "cheated" a bit in the last two repetitions since i actually changed the pitch of the final syllable s to make them fit into Bm and E instead of D... anyway, thanks again to holly for that wonderful voice!
(i made this song on cubase sx 3)

Tags : | Weird | 2.21 MB

Description : yet another track i made using a couple of holly's acapellas. a bit weird though, cause it doesn't really have a structure, and swaps between different genres and moods, with the same melodic vocal lines

Tags : | Spoken Word | 1.06 MB

Description : i listened to eshar's "i wish i could sit here forever" poem, and liked it a lot, especially the monotonous, yet rhythmic and paused phrasing. i just added some effects to add a darker twist to it, kind of a silent hill feel, and a simple piano.

Tags : | Jazz | 4.96 MB | Featured

Description : i actually don't have a title for this one...i made it cause i got my hands on Guitar Rig 3, so i made this song to test it out...this is what i came up with. (it's not jazz, i know...but it is in the end, i think)
i've been told this song could use some vocals, but i suck at writing lyrics and singing, so if anyone would like to add some singing to this tune, please, do...

Tags : | Ambient | 2.42 MB

Description : the first in the "silent" series...heavily inspired by Akira Yamaoka's Silent Hill soundtrack...particularly for this one, the plain drum loop found in Silent Hill Origins

Tags : | Ambient | 2.70 MB

Description : the second one in the "silent" series...the one i'm the most ashamed of, but maybe it'll give you a few laughs? hehe...inspired mainly by the sound of Akira Yamaoka's Silent Hill soundtrack, with a twist of my own, a bit more melodic, perhaps...lyrics suck, 'cause i suck at writing lyrics, and i just wanted to have a main melody on top...sorry for crappy singing, too...

Tags : | Ambient | 4.69 MB

Description : the third one in the "silent" series...experimenting with ambient sounds, trying to get a dark and soft mood while keeping it a bit jazzy...

Tags : | Ambient | 5.47 MB

Description : the fourth one in the "silent" series...probably the darkest and weirdest one...i played a lot with distortion and eq on the drums...to keep it a bit disturbing while still musical, i tried to play with different tonal centers, as well as odd time signatures...probably not easy to follow through to the end the first time you listen to it...

Tags : | Acoustic | 6.24 MB

Description : a song i made quite a while ago...but i still like it...the first thing i started to work with was the chords in the beginning, and added all the other parts of the song subsequently...i hate writing lyrics, cause i suck at it, but i still wanted a melody to be sung on top, so i just sang whatever first came to my mind, so lyrics make no sense...they're just a melodic and rhythmic cue...also, i obviously can't sing, so sorry 'bout that

Tags : | Acoustic | 3.90 MB

Description : an old song i made about 3 years ago with a girl i used to love...i found it the other day after years of not listening to it, and decided to re-record it, with a few minimum changes...

Tags : | Acoustic | 3.40 MB | Featured

Description : something i made from a few simple guitar chords...it has no lyrics, just like many of my songs, so if anyone can think of a vocal melody and/or lyrics, please, be my guest...
i think this song ended up sounding like Sixpence None The Richer, for some reason...(except for the occasional odd time signatures)

Tags : | Cinematic | 2.19 MB

Description : something i came up with based on the windows xp startup little song...i guess i just had nothing better to do...

Tags : | Jazz | 2.23 MB

Description : i listened to bchris and slap johnson's collab song called Elle, and liked it a lot...i just added some drums and guitars to make it a bit funkier...thanks to bchris for his original song and amazing piano playing, and to slap johnson for his superb sax playing

Tags : | Dance | 2.59 MB

Description : i'm using EVRiM's acapella "Circles" for this one...
(there are some bad clicks and distortion on some vocal parts because i'm just lazy like that...lol...also, i just realized i it probably wasn't the best idea to do this track while having a cold, so the eq might be crappy...i can't tell, 'cause i still have the damn flu!)
thanks to EVRiM for that wonderful voice

Tags : | Acoustic | 3.26 MB

Description : another fantastic tune written by bchris, to which i just added some drums, guitars, and bass...when i listened to the original version of this song, i immediately associated it with some great 80's - 90's tv themes, like growing pains, full house, alf... that kind of style. i wanted to keep that "theme" feel while giving it a bit of groove...thanks again to bchris for letting me work with this amazing song of his

Tags : | Cinematic | 1.27 MB

Description : i hadn't made a heavy sounding track in a while, so i decided it was time to get down to business with it...i have also been recently listening to movies soundtracks, and the one that got my attention this week was Alan Silvestri's "Back to the Future" main theme...so this is what i came up with...(the ending is abrupt and makes no sense 'cause i was just playing around seeing how it would sound to make a rock version of the tune, and i screwed up the lead guitar at that point, so i just stopped playing everything else in that same spot...lol)

Tags : | Cinematic | 1.27 MB

Description : this is just a variation i came up with based on the Top Gun theme (not "take my breathe away" but the one called "Top Gun Anthem" written by Harold Faltermeyer & Steve Stevens)...i tried to keep an 80's feeling while changing some of the chords from the original progression...
