    uniE603 The Ancient Language - Audiobook exert, Voiceover example.
    Voiceover, Audiobook sample read. EQ'd, and edited. DAW - Logic Pro X. voiceover
    paper Epic Movie - Movie Soundtrack, Game, Aneme, or TV show, theme music example

    I wanted to do something interesting with this project piece.
    I decided to make it an epic Martial Arts (or action) Movie Soundtrack.
    When it comes to the music I create, I’ve always said, ‘Sit back, close your eyes, and watch the movie.’ Music should paint a picture in your mind and get your imagination working. With every song I write, I endeavor to spark the imagination and deliver an experience that goes beyond just hearing music that sounds good.
    This song has two tempos. The tempo is 80 bpm. This gives it that Epic Movie feel!

    paper Licensed To Chill - Building up to a finally, tension cue example

    Project info:

    I Composed, did complete EQ, and Mastering. In home Studio, with sound treatment. Logic Pro X and Pro Tools DAWs.
    Animes, Dramedies, Sports broadcasts, Reality TV, and game shows all use different types of Tension music / cues.
    I made this project a fun, light- Building up to a finally tension cue, like what you might hear in a TV show, movie, video game, or anime.

    paper Tension cue / game / anime - example

    Project info:
    Light Tension Cue Music on EP release; Composed, Complete EQ, and Mastering. In home Studio, with sound treatment. Logic Pro X and Pro Tools DAWs.

    Animes, Dramedies, Sports broadcasts, Reality TV, and game shows all use different types of Tension music / cues.
    I made this project a fun, light-tension cue, like what you might hear on a game show or comedy-drama (dramedy) or anime. I envisioned people looking for something or trying to solve something with time running out, but of course, they get it or find it just in the nick of time.

    paper Pop-Country - example

    This is an example of Old, and Modern Country, blended with Rock, to make Pop-Country; from over 30 years of music experience.
    I wrote this song and recorded all the vocals, and played the instruments. I Mixed and Mastered it using Logic Pro X and Protools.

    paper Together We Stand - Orchestrated instrumental demo

    I created this for a college project. I used orchestra instruments and vocals to create the soothing atmosphere it invokes. It’s calming, and soothing and perfect for commercials, background music, meditation or anything that uplifts you.
    Sometimes a producer for a TV show, a commercial, etc. will put out that they’re looking for a specific sound or style of music. They will often supply an example (the Model) of what they’re looking for. What you do is create something that sounds the same, but is not a duplicate or a copy of the Model. It simply has the same type of style, sound, feel, and instrumentation (different melody and chord progressions). The song creatively is your own.

    This song came from a commercial that was part of a school project. While it is not a duplicate or copy, and does not have the same melody, it has the same feel or vibe as the original.

    paper My Remix of - Dancing In The Streets (By David Bowie)

    I took a basic MIDI file from the internet (no frills, no mastering or mixing really). I remixed and mastered it and gave it a Jazz and Latin flair. Kind of a David Bowie meets Huey Lewis, meets Ricky Martin in the Caribbean, type sound. I added instruments and parts, swapped instruments and moved a few things.

    paper Born To Win - Hip hop tension cue example

    I created this for a college project. I used orchestra instruments and typical Hip Hop musical elements. The sound created a building and intensifying atmosphere that culminates in a triumphant conclusion. Though created for tension cues that are great for TV, dramas, Sports programs, many others, the style and sound can be expanded into songes, games, and other full productions…

    paper Rockabilly / Doo-Wop - example

    I wrote this as Old-school 50’s era Rock in the Rockabilly / Doo-Wop style. This was a fun throwback to the “good ole days.”
    I wrote this song and recorded all the vocals, and played the instruments. I Mixed and Mastered it using Logic Pro X and Protools.
    This was a project for college with the purpose of building a portfolio and releasing a great song.

    paper How long can we live - contemporary example

    I wrote this song and recorded all the vocals, and played the instruments. I Mixed and Mastered it using Logic Pro X and Protools.
    This was a project for college with the purpose of building a portfolio and releasing a great song.

    paper Cartoon Sound Effects and character voice Demo

    This project uses a technique that is called Foley sound effects. None of the sound effects are electronically generated; they are created by using various items you find laying around the house (a rubber band stretched between two pens, a glass candle holder, a metal skewer, beatboxing with vocals, hitting a pillow, and the list goes on). You manipulate those sounds a little to get the sound effect you want.

    In this cartoon, I demonstrate my sound effects creation skills along with creating and syncing Character dialogue, Mixing, and Mastering the sounds into video the soundtrack.

    I did not create the background music it was provided for the project along with the cartoon video (Both are public domain).
