NOTES: 13 one-minute soundtracks to creepy films that do not yet exist. After hearing some m2, I was asked to contribute music to a viral video marketing campaign for Weird Tales magazine. Naturally, I agreed. These 13 short pieces were the result. Some samples courtesy of Stanley Lieber. Please check out his music. I like it.

Tracing the Past (2007)

tracingthepast

1) Tracing the Past
2) Misery

NOTES — Done as a joke for the people at IMWAN, poking fun at a comic artist. The flip side is a rough recording of a song that would end up on an X-Sweet record. I can’t remember who did the cover art, but I’m PRETTY sure it was Hugh Cherry.

Music To Trip To: The 1994 X-mas Single (1994)

musictotripto

1) Oceans of Rebellion
2) In The Library
3) Water Torture
4) Forgetting Prozac
5) Drunk In My Lawyer’s Office
6) Hangover On Sunday

NOTES – The first ever recording I released to the public (which is to say, gave it to friends). Handed out on cassettes, recorded over ‘cassingles’ I happened to have, so sound quality varies immensely. Made up in some degree of samples — did not have technology, so all I did was play tapes in my four-track and record them — but you know, whatever. “Water Torture” was partially recorded with my old roommate John Donovan’s guitar. “Forgetting Prozac” is the feedback outro of a song I (regrettably) threw out years ago, “Fat Boy Need Love Too,” recorded about a great actor who did not deserve such ridicule. As of November 28, 2009, I am SERIOUSLY thinking about releasing a 15th anniversary remastered recording of this, with bonus tracks.
