[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]
Several figures sit or lie around the crackling fire. Sleep looms at the back of all their minds, but they are entranced by the wild tales being woven by one figure standing alone with the moon to his back.

A mermaid sits idly in the lake she calls home, noticing something beginning to change about the waters she swims in. Cautiously, she begins to explore the borders of her usual habitat.
[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]
A fox finds himself one day encountering a rapid torrent of water, becoming overwhelmed and entering the wild river despite his attempts to stay away. It is almost as if he is being drawn in.
[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]
The fox and mermaid meet. Their tales are shared mutually, each taking similar turns along the way. Despite their origins, their forms, they share a similar path to reach that very moment in time.
[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]
A piece in multiple parts written to accompany a dance choreographed by Karen Brown with the same title. Using primarily guitars, rhodes piano and drums, the music provided a more modern counterpoint to a dance personifying trees of the varying seasons.
[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]
Multicolored nonsense, baseball games versus clowns, being serenaded by a random co-worker with a glass marimba, jazz concerts on the roof, big finish.
[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]
A demo piece written for a project I ultimately wasn’t hired for, but I liked the music well enough to keep it around. Imagined as the transition from an industrial steampunk city into the wooded glory of the outside world at dawn.
[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]
Written to be a showcase of a hybrid style of orchestra enhanced with synths like some bizarre cyborg. This piece was born as a reaction to an earlier tune that attempted the same mood but ultimately failed.

A collaboration with fellow composer
Scott Cairns for a project demo. Scott wrote the melody, while I orchestrated it out as a bit of a haunting waltz. While the project never fleshed out, I’m especially proud of this part of it.
