Take These Wings

I arranged this song for my Mom. It was one of our favorite songs when I was a kid. I composed the instrumentation using Xewton Music Studio on my iPod Touch, and overlaid my voice, including harmonies, using Garageband and the built in microphone on my Macbook.

 

Angst of the Bubble Mower

 

This Is The Problem

This is my first venture into an incredible world where samples from Noise.io can be directly accessed using Beatmaker, without the need to use a PC as a bridge between them.

Details of how the song was made, after the fold…

 

Monica in the Afternoon

I was very inspired by the sounds of this song, so I decided early on to dedicate it to my inspiring wife.

I composed this in BeatMaker on my iPod. I made my own single-note instrument kit using samples from Garageband, all in middle C. All melody progressions were composed in BeatMaker.

 

Not Fun At All

The goal of this piece was to create something disturbing to the ear, without losing structure and composition.

I used a featured artist kit in BeatMaker for this, but I mangled most of the instruments, perhaps beyond recognition.

 

Keeping It a Mystery

I composed this piece using Beatmaker on my iPod Touch. The instruments are from one of the artists’ kits that came with the app, “Rucker Park” by Rafiralfiro.

 

Moments of Winter

I composed this song a couple of years ago with Garageband and a midi controller. It got lost when I migrated my site from MODx to Wordpress.
