Desperate Moves
"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
