"Desperate Moves" is a rock instrumental piece, and the very first music composition I ever recorded. I wrote this back in 2001. This version was re-recorded in 2009. I could never find a decent vocal melody to match the music, hence why it has remained an instrumental. I'm playing all the instruments on this track.more
"City of Utopia" is an ambient, new wave instrumental piece, transcending time and space. It was a major change in musical direction from my usual genre, but I was happy with how it turned out. Click the YouTube link to watch the music video.more
