A dark electronica track, which starts out with a pulsing beat and ambient guitars, but drops into a driving, synth-heavy backend. Inspired by a recent experience with a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) machine… which makes some incredibly dark industrial music – trust me!
Descent
A dark, atmospheric track from an old album project I never completed. Sinister undertones abound, with ambient vocals and synth, and an effected ethnic wind instrument which adds a mysterious feeling.
Chronicle
A cinematic opening to a project that never came to be. Dark, ambient tones give way to an orchestral rise, and then to a simple melody played on a Duduk (an Armenian clarinet), accompanied by orchestra.
Hymn
Time and Space
A simple, modern piano & orchestra piece in two parts – beginning with a simple piano motif and effected woodwinds, but suddenly dropping into a dramatic, driving orchestral backend at ~2:05.
Phoenix
A cyclic, bittersweet work for orchestra & choir, featuring a simple motif repeated and layered multiple times.
A New Year
An optimistic track for 2018 – piano, strings and electronics, sprinkled with some improvisation.
Cobalt
Genesis
A short experiment in making a synth sing! Simple string chords, droning synth and a melodic, singing synth to accompany.
Life Is
Cassini
An orchestral tribute to the Cassini probe, which triumphantly completed its mission on September 15, 2017, becoming a part of Saturn.
Solstice
A simple, uplifting track featuring a cycling piano motif and chordal strings… and accordion!
Elementary
Pursuit
An epic orchestral cue featuring energetic, fast-paced drum’n’bass, big brass and lead synths.
Theory of Machines
A bittersweet, emotional string orchestra cue, inspired by the artwork of Kuldar Leement.
Journeys
An uplifting, bright and hopeful pop-folk tune with piano, ukulele, acoustic drums and backing vocals.
The Legend of Kvothe
An adventurous fantasy piece inspired by the protagonist from Patrick Rothfuss’ book series, the Kingkiller Chronicle (The Name of the Wind, The Wise Man’s Fear). Features plenty of ‘lute’ playing, starting out soft and sweet, but building up to a tavern showdown with the orchestra.
Jade
An adventurous, bold orchestral cue with big strings and brass, and thematic elements.
