  • Riding the Scorpio moon
    "Riding the Scorpio moon" is an epic surf-rock guitar instrumental with many layers to it and a rich classic surfalicious vibe and groove. This song is right out of a 60's drive-in surf flick for sure. The song was produced for a TV commercial ad spot, and I have to laugh because the producers of the ad spot said and I quote "This song will be the sound of summer 2020". I find that endlessly amusing purely because so far 2020 has been nothing but Coronavirus and quarantine lock-down all over the world. I'm not sure if the "summer 2020 theme song" is what I want to be remembered for. That being said, on the plus-side if my little surf piece here makes everyone think of California beaches and surf betty's instead of hospital beds and face masks then I'm all for it.. cheers to that... In any case I'm sharing with you guys by permission of the production company, who pretty much insisted I do so if I'm honest, (although I'm sure for self-serving reasons, the more exposure the better right?!)
    As I always like to explain the titles to offer some inspiration context. This song (and its music I might add) despite what you might take away from it is actually titled for a soul-mate of mine. A powerful connection that I suspect goes back many....many lifetimes. cheers...

  • Dogwood Robinson
    This is an epic guitar piece that I put together for an indie-film project I'm currently a part of. This piece is a mix of neo-classical and classic rock with a pinch of alternative especially in its tone. The song starts off almost Pink Floyd in nature but moves into a more hard rock riffing groove. The guitar solo down the middle is built around a riff alteration of the jazzy section that begins the song. The solo itself however is very Vai meets Van Halen meets Jeff Fiorentino. It's a tricky little section and I had to do it all in one piece for timing reasons. So there's lots of happy little accidental harmonics and noises throughout. These are actually the kinds of solos I like doing. Improv was how I cut my teeth, so any chance I get to pull a cool guitar solo out of my ass around a great rhythm with lots of chord changes makes me a happy Jeff indeed.
    The song's title is in reference to a character in the film. Nothing too mysterious about it really...
    Enjoy.... and as always.... CRANK IT UP!! You'll want to go way up for this one, and a good set of headphones will serve you well...

  • Take the bunny and run
    "Take the bunny and run" is obviously from its cover and title theme a slightly cheeky play off the current Easter theme (time of its release). This song is a total remake of a track I did back in 2017. I always liked the original song, but I thought it could be better. This one, is better in many ways. The drums are enhanced, the solo is cleaner, and the list goes on. That said... this song will rock your world for sure, so feel free to blow a set of speakers over it.. The original version of this track is still floating around out there in internet land in bootleg form I believe.. But there's no need to "Easter egg hunt it down"... I would stick with this one...
    Enjoy... and as always, CRANK IT UP!!! Cheers....

  • The last orange
    "The last orange" is quite a ride through the guitar universe. This is a piece I did for a now put on pause TV pilot for FX network. This track has elements of classic hard rock vibe with an Alternative rock meets Surf rock edge in places, cut down the middle with a very abstract Van Halen meets Jeff Fiorentino inspired guitar solo. I think it's definitely worth blowing some speakers over for sure, just don't bill me for them when you do please..
    As for the title and cover-art, you'll find quickly that aside from the guitar solo mid-song the cover-art is ironic to the music itself. The title only has meaning to me so I really won't go into it. However I imagine this track will get low plays because all of my guitar-freak fans will think it's a sappy love song. In reality, it's nothing of the sort. For those of you who learn my songs and bother your neighbors with the noise the solo should keep you busy for a little while anyway.. cheers...
    Enjoy... and as always CRANK IT UP!!! A good set of headphones is highly recommended!!

  • I like like you
    This track "I like like you" is a total remake of a song I did back in 2016 for the indie-film "Breathe Easy". I always liked the song, but hated the mix and sound of the original version, and I always thought that was what stopped it from being a bigger hit than it was. This track is pure Van Halen influence throughout, but there's a lot of me in it as well, especially with the under-tones happening in the bridge.
    The song's title is what it is. It's the melody line of the main guitar riff. When the song opens, and when the riff kicks in you can sing "I like like you" to it. The title as always is indicative of what's happening in my world. I like a lot of people right now. I'm finding myself a bit of a kid in a candy-store at the moment. But I "like like" very few people. I always reminded of one of my favourite movie lines. Not a classic or anything cultured, it's Jackie Chan, so I'm not quoting a great philosopher here, but it's still a good habit to get into. It goes "I like to let people talk, so you can see how full of sh*t they are. If I'm honest it's bloody good advice, it certainly works for me.
    Enjoy the track, this one was recorded for a reality TV show that I'm a part of right now as music director and co-producer. But thanks to the Coronavirus we've been put on hold. That doesn't mean however that you can't crank up the song... So do that... and I hope you guys "like like it"... cheers...

  • The end of the beginning
    "The end of the beginning" is well.....some Metal basically. This is a straight up 80's Metal guitar rocker with some guitar riffing, some background melody over a semi-melodic bridge, and some searing guitar shredding with a wah and some stereo spin. Not much more I can say about the song itself, it is what it is as they say..
    As far as the title goes, and as you all know I usually explain them. Not unlike my other titles this song is aptly titled for what's going on in my own life right now. Although maybe a wee bit more literal in its wording than some of my others. In some respects it's a take of sorts on the old "Closing day" song lyric, "every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end". I'm having to find my way through a lot of "newness" these days. But the basic realization I came to with it all is.... "I'm alright"... For those who might confuse the title, I remind you there's a big difference between saying "the beginning of the end", and "the end of the beginning", and this song, and frankly my life in general right now is at the end of a beginning, a beginning that happened quite some time ago.
    This song was produced for an indie-film project, but also just for general licensing. Commercial metal is becoming more popular with music supervisors these days. Even Food Network is grabbing it up to try to liven up their baking and cooking competition shows.. lol... .
    Enjoy...cheers... and all that.... And as always, CRANK IT UP!!!!! Louder the better, and with some good headphones ideally...

  • Happiness is boring
    "Happiness is boring" is a song I composed a while back but only just got around to recording. We recorded it for a reality-show TV pilot that I'm currently doing. It's a fun project, and most of the music required for it that I'm doing has either an element of power, or an element of quirky. This song is a bit of both. I won't bother explaining the title on this one, it's pretty straight forward. If we think about it, there isn't a lot of drama in blissful Utopian happiness. So if you're one of those people that needs drama to survive, and will even go as far as to create drama if there isn't any. Well then, happiness can indeed be and likely is a wee bit boring for you.
    Enjoy the track, and as always CRANK IT UP!!!!

  • Rubber rose
    "Rubber rose" is an epic hard rock guitar piece I did for a thriller plot-based TV Pilot project that I've been a part of for a while. This track has a lot of tension to it, but it also has a good deal of release, which makes it I think very easy to listen to. Definitely a good set of headphones will serve you well with this one...
    I know I normally explain the titles in part to avoid the endless tweets of people asking me about the title. So since "Rubber rose" is kind-of a slang term within my own inner circle of friends (mostly), I'll explain that a "Rubber rose" metaphorically is when you give a girl a rose and she throws it back at you, or someone says "they'll change", and they don't.. That being said it can also apply in business when a deal is rejected, or in any situation where it seems like someone is throwing the "rose" you're offering right back at you.
    Enjoy.... and as always CRANK IT UP!!!

  • Waiting for you
    "Waiting for you" is a late 80's style power pop-ballad of sorts. This is actually a remake of a song I composed for a band here in Los Angeles way back in 2013 that was going to be recorded for Warner Brothers Records. However, they broke up and never used it, so since I retained the publishing rights, and the kind folks at WB said it was okay, I decided I would remake it and re-record it for use in a UK indie-film project I'm a part of currently. So, here it is. It's bloody powerful, with a nice catchy groove hook with a quirky, albeit slightly intricate guitar solo down the middle. I peppered in some guitar melodies for this remake during the chorus parts just to add a "vocal" element.
    Enjoy.... and as always CRANK IT UP!!! Way up for this one for sure... Like I said, it's got some power and feel to it if you give it a chance.
