Everyday Hero

I got away from the computer and came up with some ideas before entering the studio today. It was an idea I got from the Master Class with Hans Zimmer. He said if you always compose at the keyboard you always come up with similar melodies because of how your hands fall on the keys. Smart man!

This music has a bit of a heroic feel to it. Cheers to all the other single dads kicking arse today! 🙂

How about some of my older music?

Thanks for listening!!!

Back to my roots!

After having some fun writing scary music for Halloween I thought I would go back to my roots and improvise something on solo piano. I had to fight the urge to add orchestration but I thought it sounded better without.

…and now something from the archive…
