Electro cover.

one moment — jazz-inspired electro

This song is a portrayal of identity crisis — yet not just in the expected expression through lyrics. A snarling electro beat attempts to warp itself around jazz-inspired harmonies and progressions as the speaker explains his own crisis. [more inside]

one last breath

This is a cover of that Creed song from 2002 in a style somewhat evocative of Owl City or The Postal Service. [more inside]

Let's Kick It

Featuring a devastating guitar solo by dagosto Hey, does anyone live between Calgary and Toronto? I'm moving cities and using it as an excuse to do a tour! Would you like me to come throw a dance party in your town?

In Paris, It's Dawn By Now

A song that, like almost EVERY song I write, is about running away to an exotic locale and, once there, dancing.

First Snows of Summer

Stuttery drums, blippy synths, lots of piano, copious crash cymbal, and a bucket load of reverb. [more inside]

Water as escapism.

Into the Night

Just a silly cover song.

Happy As Fuck

This is an old song and a personal song. Its basic premise fits quite nicely with my life, thus making it relatively personal. Marginally complex vocals around an easy-to-follow framework, written while afraid of the leaving of an ex of four years past. [more inside]

Ascension Island

In the late '90s, I was the main guy behind an electronic art-pop band called Science Park. After suffering a nervous breakdown in the winter of 2000, I disbanded the group and retreated from the music industry for six arduous years. Now thirty, I've just issued a 15-year retrospective of my life in sound and have re-committed myself to my life's work with a raft of new projects. "Ascension Island" was first issued on a Japanese 7" single on Motorway Records in 2000, and later on my album Disinformation (Obscure-Disk). A tale of love, espionage, and violence always just out of sight, it features my trademark drifting electronics, shortwave radio interceptions, and cool, clean singing. Enjoy.

Waiting For You

This is the first song of at least 6 that I will release on my first, self-released EP in the near future. I'm currently figuring out how to arrange a live set with my music as everything was played and/or arranged by myself. I now release my music under the moniker mixedtape. The Freudian Slipper was my old name :)
