New Tunes

I added three new tracks today, all more or less rock. My recent projects seem to focus on this type of stuff, so why not?

Hello again! I've completed the sound design work for Valentine's Day, which will be premiering tomorrow night at the Delancy Street Theater in San Francisco. On the audio front, I'm recording and editing radio spots for the non-profit Celebrate! Radio Network, mastering benefit CDs for the Streetcats Foundation, and working on several new music pieces. One of these, the theme song for the travel series, "No Brakes, Go!", can be heard on the music page.

Since my last update, I have continued working on a MIDI control device (on and off), while continuing to score projects. Just this week, I finished the score for Valentine's Day, my third film with director Jim Breen. I'm now tasked with completing the sound design for the film, and overseeing a final mixing session in December.

Summer rolls along, and after a lot of travel in June and July, I've settled back into work. At the moment I'm helping Canyon Creations, a South San Francisco-based toy company, with a large audio editing project. I've also become involved with building sounds and writing music for a new type of MIDI controller based around biofeedback. Interesting, no?

I have quite a few projects now in the works: I'm scoring another documentary which could arrive shortly, writing the trailer music for a Sci-Fi feature now in post-production, plus I'm doing the music for a website, and the sound editing for another documentary. Between all of these I've found the time to write a few pieces for just for fun. Expect some new music clips up on the site soon.

At the moment, I'm writing music for a large stage show being produced for CitiFinancial by FishEye Media. The theme of the production is the elemental forces of Earth, Air, Water and Fire. To stress this idea, the entire score has a Native American focus, with a few of my own stylistic conceits. It's been a ton of fun to write so far and I'm very pleased with the results.

The website is up and running! My appreciation goes to Jason Buckley for creating the site during the busy holiday season. Thanks, Jason! Right now I'm finishing up work on a documentary with the Hoi An Foundation, a non-profit organization that helps support and care for orphans in Vietnam. While I'm tasked with writing the majority of the music, I'm also functioning as Music Supervisor. I encourage you to check out their site and see some of the great work going on over there. Happy Holidays!
