Not a well put together piece but it's been sitting in my work folder for 2 years and I couldn't think of anything to build off it.  Just going to close the song up - it's not bad but there's that feel that something's missing.

Finally put some of my photoshop skill to use for myself.  It's a bit harder though than designing for a group, since then you'd have a theme to be working towards.  Me? No idea what my theme is so I have a default one, a more colorful/flashy one, and a more peaceful Christmas-y one for the holidays.

The more colorful ones are from the Moviemakers Club obviously.  It's such a waste to see all that work go unused otherwise.

But as far as general usage goes... hmm which one to be the default card?

Really liked the string arrangement by the composer Angelo Badalamenti and couldn't help playing it on piano today. Of course, it's nowhere near as nice as the original, but I haven't heard it in piano before and couldn't find any others.


Someone who actually plays piano can probably arrange this much better though.

This one's short but slower than what I usually make.  I was just really bored today, which doesn't really make for good inspiration but it's better than none I suppose.


Nothing special but give it a listen if you ever have some time.  I might build on it - or I might not.  Depends if I get more ideas.  Suggestions welcome though.

Another song finally done.  Took a lot longer than I expected to on this and it's not quite as powerful as I wanted it to be, but it's probably one of my better ones in a long time.


As mentioned previously, this is a remake of the climax of a song I started about 3 years ago.  At the time, I didn't really know what I was doing (I still don't) nor did I have very high quality instruments (VSTs) to work with.   It took a long time to figure out what new samples to use as opposed to the Edirol VST I had in the original Darker Stormy.  A lot of the sounds I wanted to use I didn't know the names for and as a result, the song still isn't quite what I had in mind.

Those more musically inclined, I would love to know what instruments I *should* have used instead, so feel free to suggest.    For example, most songs probably don't use piano as their primary baseline so that definitely needs swapping.. if only I knew what to swap it with.
