Runaway
Explorer
This is the first song I have written on the
computer. It was started on a Mag lap-top and finished on a Dell Pentium 233MHz
machine. Original melody was started on piano with the chords first, then main
melody was played up with a "Snake charmer" type of sound on my mind.
This song is pretty basic, and has no actual bass to it, just a low octave piano
sound. I played around a bit on pitch bends and vibrato on a few sections of the
song. Not quite sure how I got the title, just sounded to me like something you
would hear as you were running away or trying to escape something, and explore.

Into
The Orient
I came up with the melody on a keyboard using a
sound that sounded Chinese, and everyone that heard the song while it was being
written said it sounded oriental so I decided to keep it in that sort of theme.

Translucent
Dreams
This is the first song I have written that I
actually am proud of. I like my use of bass, echo, and drums. One night I was
sitting in my apartment, and I had this weird tune going through my head, so
after watching a movie, I started this song. If I remember right, I finished it
in 45 minutes. at the melody at the end of the song, I can just hear a huge
choir singing the melody over and over again. No words, just vocal sounds. I
hope to someday add that in.

Future
Dance
This song got it's name because of the
mechanical sounding instruments, and effects. It really isn't about anything
specific, I was just playing around with my music tracker. This song has quite a
bit of high pitched notes. It isn't one of my favorites, but it is fun to listen
to while you are driving, or just sitting around going over your music
collection, as I do quite often.

Come
To Me
If you have ever seen the movie "Fright
Night" you know this song. It is very Intimate sounding. Listening to the song, you can just lay back and imagine getting seduced by
a Vampire. I had to do a version of this. It has a very catchy tune to
it, and it is mysterious.

Egyptian
Nights
Got it's name by all the pitch bends, and by
the basic sounds of the instruments. This song has no drums, gets over-powering
at some points, and the layout is very basic. This is another one of my very
first songs, I was experimenting with computers, and with the music tracker when
it was written.

Radiant
Sunrise
This has to be definitely one of my very
favorite songs. In the top 5 for sure!! It took me quite a while to complete
this song. I love the way all the melodies and harmonies come together. The only
thing I am a little unsatisfied with is the choice of instruments I used. I have
tried once to change all the instruments. but it is nearly impossible to
replicate the true sound and emotion of the piece.

Dwarfs
In The Night
It was late... It was dark.... It was quiet...
This was written on a cheap lap-top that I was borrowing before I actually had a
computer of my own to work with. I was sitting on the floor in the living room
using headphones because the lap-top speakers sucked so much, that even little $
.99 headphones made the comp. sound better.

Immortal
Virtue
This melody was written using a variety of
organ sounds on my Dad's keyboard. I started by recording layer by layer to get
what I was looking for. after I was impressed, I then tracked it on the
computer. This song is a bit catchy, and the drums remind me of some sort of
old-school type of rap song or something.

A
Walk Through Tomorrow
I had this dream that I was walking through a
forest, this is the kind of song I can picture for that incident. This is
another No-Drum song. Since my music is basically composed in a classical style,
I am used to playing cello in my high school orchestra, and not having any drums
or anything, I don't always feel drums are necessary to complete a song.

Awakening
Spirits
This was a song that I was inspired to write by
a song I played in my high school orchestra. I loved playing it, and I loved
playing it, so I wrote a similar melody, and added stuff to it. this is one of
my longest songs, (about 6 minutes) and again.... Has no drums. This song was
started before I ever had access to a computer at all. I was over at a friends
house, and I was telling him what kind of instruments I wanted to use, and I
told him what I wanted... note-for-note. He added some effects and added the
bass line. When I got my own computer, I brought the song home on disk, and
finished it several months later.

Burlesque
Show
I found these "BIG SOUNDING" Kettle
drums, and a big crash cymbal, and I came up with a beat that reminded me of
something you would see on TV watching an old show from the 50's where they
would be at a nudie bar or something, and this girl would come out with
stockings, and feathers, and never would get naked, because back in those days,
they couldn't, and people would be having a good time watching this girl dance
around for some reason. If you ever have seen something similar to this, you can
only realize that the music she is dancing around to is always very corny, and
basic. I felt it was my turn to try that.

Reverberation
This was written on piano back when I was in

Cotton
Road
This song is one of my favorites, I was pleased
by the bass, and the general tune heard in this song made me think of a big
cotton candy machine. I could just picture the stick turning and grabbing all of
this spun sugar gathering it up, creating cotton candy, so that's how I got the
title of this song.

up again until the end of the song.

Cyndroliquel

I wrote this back in the day on piano. It is
about 30-45 seconds in length. It got it's name by one night I was on the phone
and I was describing something to be cylindrical, and I pronounced it all wrong,
and Cyndroliquel just stuck, so I wrote a song with that word in mind.
