The Bad Kids

This track has been months in the making – I kept going to post it, listening back and thinking “Oooh, it’d be really fun to add a little more here or there”. There were more than one (actually A LOT) of giddy moments dancing around the studio in the production of this. If you need…

Arcade Heroes

Sometimes a song is born out of just playing around with all the instruments I’ve collected/sampled/etc. over the years. That’s the case here. I found an old 8-bit emulator and just had a bunch of fun with it to create this retro-arcade inspired song. Give it a download if you need a peppy old vintage…

Fake News

I am reeeally stoked about this track. This one was one of those times you sit down, hit record and something kinda cool just comes out. I named it “Fake News” because the loop in the intro of the song reminded me of one of those old fashioned 5 O’Clock News stinger sounds that they…

Carpenteresque

I watched one of the Halloween movies recently and just couldn’t get over how iconic that theme song by John Carpenter is. It’s incredible how simple, catchy and perfect it is for that movie. In the spirit of that, I wanted to pay homage to John Carpenter by recording this music kits that was inspired…

At Rest

Continuing with my “lofi” series, here is a very relaxed composition with a solid backbeat running throughout. The song has a transition about halfway through which ushers in a really nice electric guitar melody and then fades into it’s outro. If you are looking for something lofi and chill for your project, this tune might…

Humming Through The Grocery Store

I recorded this track a few years back. The melody was one of those ones that literally came to me as I was pushing a cart through the grocery store. I had to mute the radio & keep humming it the whole drive home so that I didn’t lose it. I laid it down, had…

Heartbreaker

This one’s a bit of a personal one. I dug it out of my archives from a time I was feeling pretty blue – but thought it had some quality to it that might work really well in the right project. If you need something acoustic based, with a hint of sadness, give this tune…

Never Left The 80s

I like to have a lot of fun with clichés when I sit down to record sometimes – and the 80s is just such a fun one to play around with. This track started with the synthesizer melody you hear in the chorus and the rest just poured out. Maybe some part of me should…

Floating Downhill

I use lofi chilled hiphop as a background soundtrack a lot while I’m working on design/website work. Lately, I’ve been interested in trying my hand at some of my own lofi tracks – and this lovely song was born out of that. If you need something mellow & chill that will sit nicely in the…

Edison’s Lightbulb Garden

This track sort of exists in two-parts. The intro is a droney soundscape that slowly coalesces into the second part, an uplifting bells + bass groove. I can see this track being used in something inspiration, a TED talk type of vibe. As the format of this track is a little less like your average…

They Found The Car

Soooo, true crime is all the rage these days and I have to admit that I’m addicted to a lot of these podcasts too. After binge listening to a plethora of true crime shows, I sat down to try my hand at creating a theme song of my own inspired by the genre. I’m really…

Here Comes The Rain

I love this tune. I have been keeping it in my back pocket for at least a year now, opening it up to tinker with it every week or two. Something about the character of that dirty guitar and that haunting piano melody in the chorus – it’s like Tom Waits on Halloween. Pleeeease let…
