ENERGY

Big Drums, Big Guitars

Do we like big? You bet we do. This is a demo excerpt from a promotional TV trailer. It proves the point again that even a modest jazz drumkit can go boom.

VIBE

Dog HoWOOOoose Saloon

A rollicking Western composition. Slippery guitars, saloon piano and washboard.

MELODIC

Piano Cycle and Strings

Melodic piano and strings make for a dramatic but compelling soundtrack.

INTIMATE

The Happy Song

Written as a demo for Coke, this little lo-fi gem never fails to bring a smile. It features vocals from Nathan Rosenberg, Jill Cunniff (Luscious Jackson), Heather Duby, and Cole Gentles. Imagine the singer being joined by others until the last chorus is sung by a crowd.

AMBIENCE

Anti-plectrum

A reversed piano sample characterizes this soundscape as well as a home brewed instrument that we call the anti-plectrum. A collections of samples made by playing a prepared guitar where the sun don't shine. Combine this with found sounds from the subway, stutter edits, and a little mojo to taste and enjoy.
