greetings everyone. my fourth concept album is now complete and i'd gladly like to share it with you. if it is of any interest of yours, i've hosted it online for a FREE DOWNLOAD OMG. so check it out.

it's different from my last albums. It's 37 minutes in total and has a total of 24 tracks. The cool thing about this album is that most of the songs are fragments so it gives a totally different listening experience.

here is the link:

So why is my music so... different? It doesn't sound like music. Well yes it does. The way I see music is simple. Music is auditory thought. Thoughts first exist in your head as thought and when transcribed into words they exist as a story, a journal, or a poem. But when converted into sound they exist as MUSIC.

The way I make my music is very abstract and unorthodox. I write the very first thing that comes to mind whereas many producers would look for a long time for the right sound. And then I write the next thing and the next thing and the next thing consecutively. This is because these thoughts are being felt in the here and now and must be converted into sound because music is my true diary. Every feeling I've ever had can be felt and heard in my music. And it's because of this first-thought-that-comes-to-mind-will-
be-recorded process that my music sounds a bit strange at times.

Music has no obligation whatsoever to having a good beat or a catchy riff. It has an obligation to promote thinking, express thought, and to be analyzed. Music doesn't make you dance. Rhythm does. Music makes you feel. And if there's a song you say sounds "weird" because it "doesn't have a melody" then it's definitely making you feel something even if you don't like it.

Music is not to be liked or disliked. It's to be taken in and accepted.

I use a lot of voice overs because I like to give messages that way and it gives you a reason to hang on to the song. I also write in fragments frequently because thoughts are usually like this. And all music is, is auditory thought.

I believe the best genre for this type of writing is electronic because of the ability to manipulate sound without any rules. Thus causing a very, very wide horizon of complex sounds to create and to better portray your thought.

Think clearly and enjoy the programming.

hello everyone,

i have just finished my second album entitled "Chemicals" It is a 36 minute electronica/ambient album. It is an instrumental concept album that flows continuously about all kinds of thoughts and things. It's basically my interpretation of what's going on in my life now. It has eleven tracks. I highly recommend downloading this one, listening to it in headphones or a good pair of speakers. All the iTunes info is there along with the album art. The tracks don't have gaps between them. Check it out if you'd like, it's free! Thanks.

It's zipped and hosted on yousendit.com, so just download it from this link. ill be putting a new link up every week since yousendit.com throws out your file after a week or 100 DLs.

Here's the link: http://download.yousendit.com/B297CC5F 62D90F64
