JERRY

Hey y'all! I'm back again. I know it's been quite a while since I've posted anything. I just finished two projects, and I'm working on a few more at the moment. So I'll try to keep this blog more fresh as the days go by.

This first post will be about the (short) documentary that I just scored. The film is titled, "Jerry" and it's about a former executioner in Richmond, VA. I had some fun exploring different sounds with this score. Also, I am obviously going to (SPOIL!) the entire film throughout the post in case you're concerned.

SATI

Hey y'all! So, I'm back! Had a scary week last week but all is good now and I can post and post and post...

Today's post is about a short film I just scored. I was hired to edit the film but I needed to have some kind of music to edit to for most of it, given the material. So, I set out to write a temp score. I figured it wouldn't be a waste of time because (A) I would learn some techniques/instruments (the story is based in India) and (B) at the very least, I could post the music here, regardless.

Well, they enjoyed the music so much that they're keeping it. So that's fun!

I'm going to let you guys hear the music in its entirety and explain where they belong in the film (so ... SPOILER ALERT! ). Sit back and enjoy the ride!

Another Failed Supertease Cue...

So, here's another supertease cue I wrote a while back that never ended up anywhere. The editor went for an epic supertease so he asked me to write something that was ... well, epic! The producers ended up wanting more of a "rock" vibe to it instead of epic orchestral.

This one has some of the sound effects from the supertease mixed in as used them as elements in the music. Let me know what you think...

Just Moved In...

Sorry I haven't posted in a while. My wife and I have been full force for weeks (moving from our apartment into our new house)! I haven't written anything yet as I just finished setting up my studio (in the house) today but I forgot that I did write this one cue a couple weeks ago and never posted it.

It's just a dramatic underscore cue so it might be a little repetitive. I should be up and running with some new music soon. We'll see. I'm totally stoked about this studio I've set up. Once it's all "COMPLETELY" finished, I'll upload a picture (with maybe a new cue?) for y'all to see!

This one's called, "It's Not A Concussion."

(ALSO! The image above is a drawing of the house we just bought. It was drawn by none other than Eric Peters! Check out his blog about it here among many other awesome drawings!)

New 8-Bit Blog...

Hey y'all. So, I finally went through with it and made a separate blog for all of my 8-bit cues. It's awesomely titled:
"Doctor 8-bit - OR: How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love The 80s"

So, go check it out and drop some comments!

8-bit Hawaii Five-O Theme!

Got another 8-bit cue for y'all! I'm a little sick and just felt like popping out another 8-bit cue. Also, check out the A-Team, Magnum, p.i. and Human Target titles I did in 8-bit as well if you haven't already.

I've got a couple more up my sleeves that I'll be working on shortly. I've been challenged to do a more difficult song than these past ones that have a clear melody and no lyrics.

So...we'll see what the future holds. In the mean time, enjoy...

Merry Christmas!

Just wanted to check in and say Merry Christmas to everyone. This is a song I wrote last year, called "Carol of the Bear." It's a rendition of Carol of the Bells with themes from Battlestar Galactica woven in. Hope you like it!
