  • In the ether
    "In the ether" is a total remake of a track I did back in 2013 called "Zep 27". This remake is from scratch and was done for a TV Pilot project I'm a part of currently. This song is what I call a "smoke'em if you got'em" track... Nice Jimmy Page vibes on this one, you can lean back in your chair with some good headphones, crank it up loud and drift off into the ether....
    Enjoy... and as always CRANK IT UP!!!

  • Tiny donut
    I usually like to offer an explanation for where my song titles come from. This is because I'm a composer, so I only write the music portions, that said there are no clear lyrics to go by. The track's mood is usually reflected by the title, which in turn usually has something to do with something going on in my life at the time of the track's creation.
    So if you're a long-time fan/follower you're probably wondering WTF is with "Tiny donut"?! That's an odd title isn't it?! Well... this track's title "Tiny donut" stems from a rather annoying conversation I had with a well-known peer of mine in the music industry at a recent gathering/event at Universal studios here in Los Angeles. I should point out that the majority of my peers in the industry do not post any of their song materials on streaming sites like this one.
    That said, this "peer" of mine suggested that by me doing so I'm turning myself into (and I quote) a "tiny donut in a box of bear claws". A statement which I found preposterous, a little stupid, and a little arrogant all at the same time. Though I rarely let such things bother me if I'm honest. What he meant by his inane comment was he believes I'm diminishing my perceived fame in the eye of the public by posting my music online for public consumption, rather than confining it to Hollywood circles as most other industry composers do.
    Since I'm aware that many industry people and other "peers" of mine in the music world play my tracks and read my little blurbs here or on Twitter etc.. I just wanted to say for the record that I think we ALL should be posting our tracks out on streaming sites for people to listen to, AND learn from. I spend a good portion of my time answering questions that come in through my website or on social media. That's not to say that I'm perfect, or have all the answers, but I've been around since the mid 90's so I've seen my share of changes, and learned a trick or two along the way which I'm always happy to share with any and all.
    My point is it's a good idea if we the "professionals" never forget that knowledge is a wonderful thing, but it's only of any lasting value if it's passed on.
    So... if me posting the tracks that I get permission to post online for people to enjoy and learn from makes me a "Tiny donut" in the eyes of some random people out there then so be it, that's perfectly fine by me! People in the industry know much better than that. I wouldn't insult them by thinking any of them feel that way. Well, except apparently one person, but I do appreciate him giving me the song title. cheers...
    _______________________________
    "Tiny donut" (Ciambella piccola) is what I call a hard rock soundscape, meaning it's got some hair swinging elements to its tone and vibe.
    Enjoy... and as always, CRANK IT UP!!! Don't let the soft neo-classical style intro fool you, this is not a quiet piece by any means.

  • We die anyway
    This song's title aside from being good advice for anyone to keep in mind, especially those who are following big dreams was actually produced for an Indie-film (actually a Rockumentary) for longtime friend and filmmaker in London. This track has some classic Van Halen vibes to it, along with some sideways grooves that are reminiscent of Rush and even Thin Lizzy, and for that matter there's even a little Hendrix influence in certain sections of the guitar solo-section mid-track.
    I was happy to get permission to share it with you guys here online. Enjoy... and as always CRANK IT UP!!! And remember, it's actually true... we do die anyway. So use your time wisely folks..

  • Dinner with the philistines
    "Dinner with the philistines", There's a long story about a strange almost surreal evening at a recent entertainment industry event/dinner that myself and a few others from my company (JFRocks Music Publishing) attended which would clarify this song's title, but I'll spare you all the story as it's just too long to explain. Needless to say while I know I have to go to these things from time to time, I honestly sometimes wish I could send a stunt-double in my place. LOL...
    I will say, this track ROCKS!!. crank it up, and enjoy!! The louder the better for sure. I composed and recorded it at Malibu studios for a TV pilot project I'm part of. These are always fun to do as you kind-of get free reign to just create something. Being the eccentric hyper-creative type that I am, that sort of direction is right up my alley for sure. In this song's case it's more of a groove piece than anything else. It's a little like my track "Honeysuckle weeks", but "Honeysuckle" on crack. There's also more of a sideways groove going on with this piece, which I always enjoy working with.
    F.Y.I. for those unaware or unwilling to bother Googling it, a "Philistine" by definition is someone who is hostile or indifferent to culture and the arts, but more importantly for the purposes of this song's title it also refers to someone who is materialistic i.e. guided by materialism.

  • Til DEATH do us part
    This is an awesome remaster of my 2013 release "Til DEATH do us part". The track's title was originally done for a friend of mine who at the time was going through a rather messy divorce. That being said, the title is sarcastic, and meant to be taken and said with a very cynical tone if you catch my drift.
    Regardless, this track ROCKS!! It went to #1 on SoundCloud in 2013, and I think this remastered version we did for a local filmmaker here in Los Angeles sounds far superior to the original version.
    Enjoy... and as always CRANK IT UP!! Way up for this one for sure..

  • Tangelo
    The original "Tangelo" release was in February of 2013. If I'm honest I didn't think it would turn into the huge hit that was and still is on SoundCloud. Not because it's a bad song or anything, but because it's a big departure from my usual hard rock guitar riffing style. BUT, as always I underestimate things and I think because of the success of the track it deserves this remaster. Which both enhances it and offers a cleaner mix than the original version.
    This track is a "Soundscape" technically, which lots of Led Zeppelin and even some Pink Floyd vibes throughout. It's a laid-back track. The drums don't even kick in until the final minute. Never the less it's well worth a listen and definitely designed to be played loud and through some good headphones. It's the type of song I call a smok'em if you got'em track. Probably best to listen to it in a smokey room. A little wine or a beer wouldn't hurt either (over 21 only)...lawyers make me say that bit.
    Enjoy... and CRANK IT UP!!!!

  • The girl who came to stay
    "The girl who came to stay" is an epic soundscape piece that I produced for an indie-film project I'm part of currently. This track is layered thick with both laid back and grungy rock vibes. A mix of influences here including Smashing Pumpkins, Hendrix, and Pink Floyd.
    The producers of the film were thrilled to let me share the track with you all here online... That being said... enjoy, and as always crank it up!!! You're going to want a good set of headphones to get the full effect of this one.

  • One night in Snowdonia
    "One night in Snowdonia" is a re-work of a track I did way back in 2016. The track has been remixed and a few parts re-done for a TV pilot project. I've been given permission to share it here online. The original version of this song was a big hit on SoundCloud in 2016 and it was released under the "Birthday" title. The re-titling of this track was done for it to fit more with the television pilot episode it's been produced for.
    It should also be noted that "Snowdonia" while yes is a region in Wales (UK), in this case Snowdonia is the female lead character in the pilot episode... Perhaps that context will help you to chuckle at the title a bit more and not just picture mountains and castles.
    Enjoy,,, and as always CRANK IT UP!!! Volumes to 11 for this one for sure...

  • In the chilly hours of uncertainty
    Produced for a TV-pilot project here in Los Angeles, this track's main theme guitar hook has an almost violin concerto effect to it. But this track is Hard ROCK through and through.. Well worth blowing some speakers over for sure..
    Enjoy,, and as always CRANK IT UP!!! Way up for this one!!!. A good set of headphones would be ideal for the full wide stereo effect.
    Just as a point of note, the cover-art for this track is a graphic of "Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle". Thought I would mention that as unless you're into advanced mathematics you might be unaware and think I just made up some equation. ha ha..

  • The great perhaps - (The 2020 Year Opener)
    Produced for a TV Pilot on the FX network, this track is a mix of melodic Metallica style vibes with a little classic hills of Snowdonia Led Zeppelin nuances. Definitely worth blowing some speakers over, and a great way to kick-off 2020. Which will in many ways I hope be a year of "Perhaps" and "What-ifs" for everyone.
