A fantasy dreamscape about an afterworld, created in Logic Pro X, all synths played by me.

I created the background track in BlocsWav and then added some extra synths and retro guitars. It made me think of 50s retro science-fiction.

Once I found the "Flight To Forever" art from Virgil Finlay it was such a fit for what I imagined. Very happy!

This is one of my Apple loop compositions, with a couple of manually played Logic Pro X synths added to the mix.

It's pretty simple, but quite emotional.

This music is available for free download, though I retain all copyright.

This track is offered as an open collaboration, so go be creative! And please provide a link and credit to my original from the description for your version of the track.

Here's a great version by my friend Smitty (aka Odin's Reaper)

I started this track with the subterranean feeling of the drummer track, and then added various dark grime bass synths and lead synths, with the final synth sweeping over it all. Apart from the customised drummer track, all synths played manually in Logic Pro X.

I hope you like it.

There's a touch of regret, but also warmth, in this rock instrumental of mine. I hope you like it.

I came across some cool two finger guitar tapping loops in Logic Pro X and decided to create this two finger guitar tapping tribute to the great Sir Winston Churchill.

First I created the two groovy intertwined electric bass guitar tracks, added some supplementary muted guitar lead, overlaid the multiple guitar tapping tracks, and finally added the laid back beat.

Enjoy.

This is Churchill's early V-sign version of a very British 'two finger salute'. Later he reversed his hand (palm outwards) when he learnt the common meaning of his early V-Sign.

Step through the space-time gate into another world!

I'm a big fan of the SyFy TV / Amazon Prime show "The Expanse", so it was inevitable that one day I'd create a space rock / space metal track inspired by it.

Joe Miller: "So, you killed her."

Anderson Dawes: "And that makes me a monster. There was no scrip to bury her, so I laid her to rest in a beautiful bauxite tunnel that we discovered together. Do you know it is possible to cry so hard that your tears turn to blood? And living with this pain, I came to realize that I have millions of brothers and sisters in the Belt. I even count you among them. As I did Julie, an Earther."

I have no professional association with SyFy, Amazon Prime or The Expanse. I'm just a fan.
