Hypnotism! (Dream Beats) 


Chill...

Do you know what the prearranged signal is?

A few moments ago you were hypnotised and told that shortly after awakening, you would be given a signal, which would put you back to sleep again.

Chill...

Now do you remember? You're awake, aren't you?

A few moments after you have awakened, I shall rap like this...

EarthBound 🌏 Home Sweet Home [Spatialized Mix] 

Revitalizing synthesizer textures to guide you toward your sanctuary.

We grow up, we drift apart, we can no longer go back. Yet somehow, the music carries us there. Isn't it nice to be home again?

This is my take on "Home Sweet Home" from the 1994 Super Nintendo game EarthBound (Mother 2).

There are some instances of head-related transfer function (HRTF) spatialization techniques within this mix. Headphones are recommended to best experience the expanded stereo properties of this mixing technique.

original soundtrack music composed by: Keiichi Suzuki, Hirokazu Tanaka, Hiroshi Kanazu, and Toshiyuki Ueno

Old School 80s BMX Bike Footage ✨🚴✨ Compilation 


Short compilation of 80s era BMX bike footage.

Starts with segments from the cult classic film "Rad," and then shifts into some more obscure and lost-to-VHS fuzzy memories. Music: "Air Man" by Will C.

Dr. Andonut's Lab (EarthBound Music) Acoustic Guitar Version 


This is "Dr. Andonut's Lab" from the Super Nintendo game Earthbound (MOTHER 2) soundtrack, only it's entirely played on acoustic guitar.

Extended to 30 minutes in length for studying, meditation, and / or zone out purposes.

At the beginning, you hear me pluck the opening chord. An acoustic guitar can't sustain infinitely, so I ran the plucked chord through a compressor with a long release and rode the gain dial, then I duplicated the resulting processed chord, continuously adding fades to make the chord sustain throughout. I was surprised how much the resulting sound resembled an organ drone. If you listen closely, you can hear an audio book on the immune system playing in the other room that accidentally was picked up on the microphone used to record the guitar.

Music As A Lighthouse 


the feeling you get 
when you're looking for the next song 
to really connect with 
whenever your head strong 
there's always a playlist 
always a lost gem to get you through phases 
and then when you find it, you're outta your head 
your into the skyline  
and centered again


Above is a set of lyrics I wrote yesterday while working on a new song. Music is a very special gift. Life can be difficult at times. My hope for you is that in every phase of life, you can pull from the infinite well of sound and rhythm, and in doing so, you can be empowered to carry on and weather the everchanging forces this world presents.

Supermoon 🌕 (Under The Supermoon) 


Under the Supermoon we met...

Waltz time side quests ✨ The chorus section is my take on "Sunflower"-era Bruce Johnston through a hypnotic prism.

Thank God for the Casiotone MT-100 keyboard I found in the furniture section of a local thrift store for $7.99.
