Transcontinental Airway
Another IDM travelogue inspired by the remote land arrows of the Transcontinental Airway System. Music for dancing, thinking, or especially (if you have the means) driving.
Haunted Weather
I've spent an agonizing 11 days dialing this one to perfection. Another bumper that hearkens back to my high school days, when a song couldn't possibly have enough rhythm tracks. Suitable for all your living-room silent discos.
White Alice
A bit of Four Tet meets '90s house, with a sideways glance to Laurie Anderson. Inspiration. Recorded for my new monthly subscription music project, Faulty Machine Recordings Service.
International Geophysical Year
Not a Donald Fagen cover, alas, but a moody slice of danceable IDM in the early-'90s style. Recorded for my new monthly subscription music project, Faulty Machine Recordings Service.
west life
Another hit!...or not. I moved to the west some time ago and decided to celebrate by writing a song. [more inside]
Metric Groove
From my new (free!) EP 'Part Time Drum Machine', this is an instrumental keyboard-based track driven forward by a cheap synth bass and Casio-ish beats. A different kind of style than you may have heard from me before. [more inside]
Cordimitic
An electronica track (possibly describable as “techno”) I created in one day for the 20th Project. It starts with a kick/hi-hat (and later a snare) as well as synth bass and lead lines; the track itself is in 7/4 time. [more inside]
The Flank of Bridenstein
I had a bit of fun with this: it's about a relationship gone wrong. I believe that the dual bass part is rhythmically interesting. Double bass and synth bass rhythmically intertwine and are coupled with a synth trumpet. There may be some Brian Eno influences a la The Drop.
My album is available for $5 download at CD Baby: The Dividing Range.

Dione
Electronic instrumental, 80's style arpeggio, loud bass and an extremely simple melody. [more inside]
Broken, soundtrack for the future.
Some more Philip Glass-inspired electronica while waiting for the RPM Challenge to start.
Exploration
Instrumental; checking out what my new Axiom 61 can do with Logic. [more inside]
Introvertigo
Everyone's afraid of falling inside. Especially so when alone.
Instrumental, post-apocalyptic, cthulhutronica. [more inside]
Enceladus
Originally planned as a mix between 70's J.M. Jarre and Steve Reich. Turns out to be more like Giorgio Moroder teaming with Tangerine Dream, on a bad day. [more inside]
Ibot Ubot Robot Nobot (Mighty Stealthy mix)
Found on the same CD as the last tune I uploaded, this is a forgotten remix to what I guess is one of my main tunes (I'll upload that later by way of comparison). I actually prefer this version now, though the strings at the end are laid on a bit thick.
Divergence
A downtempo dance tune... I think. Yep.
808 Guilty Spark
Halo inspired trance for your Saturday night dance party.
I started this one three years ago and finally finished it this afternoon. I don't write for this genre very often, so let me know what you think!
a moment
An simple instrumental piece I've been meaning to finish up since 2003. MeFi music inspired me to get it done tonight. Enjoy.
eight minutes till today becomes tomorrow
A subdued synthetic rock/instrumental track by me. If you like Sigur Ros, you might like this.
Outta My Way
One of my first attempts with GarageBand. "Outta My Way" is the title song of what I envisioned would be an "album" chronicling my decision to move from Washington, DC to rural Vermont. This particular song was intended to be about my work day.
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."
