1979

Version 2 of a song I made with Logic Studio on a Macbook Pro, which somehow reminds of the year 1979.

unbroken

This downtempo "weirdo-falsetto" number is a track by Clearspeaks featuring edlundart. The music was written and produced by Clearspeaks while I wrote the lyrics and vocal melody. I also performed the vocal and created the vocal snippets used in the background, similar to what I did on "elevate."

Regis11

Written during a Squarepusher phase I'm guessing. It's at least 5 years old. I like how it develops.

Down with the Tempo

Alright. I used to think using GarageBand (and its loops) to make songs was "cheating". Then I started to use it. It's amazing how fun and easy it is, and you can really create some great sounding music. Here is my first downtempo song, entitled "Down with the Tempo". Enjoy!

eight minutes till today becomes tomorrow

A subdued synthetic rock/instrumental track by me. If you like Sigur Ros, you might like this.

Monsoon

Something sweet and mellow to watch the rain by. Hot off the press.

Luna Iridia

Something mellow and electronic. Soft synths. Sleep music.

Eastern Movement

From the same record as "First Steps into Metropolis". More downtempo than pure cinema this time, but I seem unable to shake the latter.

Beat 2 (Live in SF, 2002) Audiosports

Everybody seems to think it's so important that you have to grab for money all the time. Seems to be the main goal in everybody's life.

Her Favorite Records

"In the dark she fakes another little death, and says she thinks that it'd be better if he left. With ashes floating on her breath, she lights another cigarette." Down-tempo alt-country with a cello. From Pocket Novel Mystery's "Eight Days in the Life of Grace."

The Earthquake was a Disaster

Picture yourself experiencing an earthquake in slow motion. The eerie calm beforehand leading up to the main event itself. Relax and let yourself live through this instrumental story all the way to the finale. Sprinkled with memories of "Close Encounters of the Third Kind."

Like There's No Tomorrow

This is a mid-tempo groovy electronic tune of mine. For fans of Air, Boards of Canada, and any other psychedelic-tinged chill music. Quite good with headphones! [commonly under pseudonym "Stereopattern"]

Complex Reasons

A hauntingly mellow groove highlighted by Sylvia Plath's "Mushrooms" as performed by the poet herself.

SkyTrain

A sketch of a sunny, bouncy ambient-ish track I Fruitylooped a month or so ago. I may actually completely rewrite it, or something similar, now I have access to a Jupiter 8, and can take my Boards Of Canada / Kraftwerk thieveries to more convincing levels....
