New Content at Myspace

Check it out here.

I added a recording of "The City, Late On A Rainy Night" (taken from the video). I might put up a Secret E.P recording... perhaps a little later, after I start getting away from the Apple loops and whatnot.

A few compositions to keep you busy...

...until I legitimately resume posting.

The City, Late On A Rainy Night


and

A brief musical cue I wrote for a deleted scene of South Park (not used in the show or anywhere except for my own purposes, but if Matt and Trey want to hire me to do the music for if and when they decide to do a new movie, I think I could squeeze it into my schedule. ;) )

Still waiting on my recordings from the choir reading and the concert band reading...

No updates on a recital date yet. They're still trying to sort out the deal with the lack of a recital hall and what-have-you. I sure hope the damn thing is open for April 2010.

Even in death, FFJ can still do horrible things...

Such as crashing my Firefox browser when trying to listen to her "singing". Twice.

Anyway, a little background on Florence Foster Jenkins:

  1. She thought she could sing beautifully.
  2. She really could not.
  3. She remained oblivious to this fact throughout her life.
  4. She died a month after her only public performance, possibly from embarrassment.
Selected works:

  1. The Glory (????) of the Human Voice (Compilation)
Seriously, go see if you can find one of her recordings on iTunes or elsewhere. Then pride yourself in being able to sing better than her.

It looks like THE COMP RECITAL OF THE FUTURE will be sometime c. Stardate April 2010.

It might be awesome.

The Secret E.P. Checklist- 9/4/09

  1. Still have the same three demos
  2. The fourth song previously mentioned has a demo track recorded, with a lead guitar line in there as well.
  3. Have a demo/concept for a fifth song based on a 12-tone work I did a few months ago.
