1381 GSS (Demo)
Home demo for a forthcoming studio production. A love song from a photo resolution target in the Mojave desert to the aerial reconnaissance pilot flying overhead. [more inside]
Dot of America (Demo)
I raced against the clock to finish this one before 2017: a song-journey on the Westbound Twin Cities Hiawatha train between Chicago and Minneapolis, operated by the Milwaukee Road from 1935-1971. [more inside]
Hip with the kids
Delirious, teeth-gritted ballad about weapons of mass destruction and grass roots violence. Also, a breathless love song from one monster to another. Also, a way to distract myself while this horrifying evening plays out.
Rough mix. Suggestions welcome. Lyrics past break. [more inside]

Written and recorded on the third anniversary of the Great TÅhoku Earthquake and Tsunami of March 11, 2011. Video here.

MC Pizarro Explorer Rap
A friend of mine decided to start a hip hop group made up of 15th and 16th century explorers who, according to the premise, actually did discover the Fountain of Youth, are thus immortal and are rapping about their exploits. This was my contribution. There's no chorus, but there are three verses. The second one's actually my favorite.
Cromwell
Written to weird out my history teacher, this song is about Oliver Cromwell and the decapitation of King Charles I of England.
