"Whiskey on the Mississippi"

Instruments: Guitar, Bass, Kit, Organ, EP

Feel: Bouncy, Grooving

With a jumping bass and off-beat syncopation, this is straight from Memphis? Beale Street. The Hammond organ and electric guitar play together as longtime friends, while the melody changes hands from guitar to organ to electric piano.

"Pop Goes the Weasel"

Instruments: Strings, Percussion, Toy Piano

Feel: Dark, Eerie, Intense, Unnerving

Heavy bass drums and an string bass set the tone for this dark and menacing tone. The familiar refrain then plays, but is made expressive and almost violent as it is played on several string basses and cellos. The pace is rather quick and forceful, and after the quick ending, a jack-in-the-box plays, normally child-like, but made creepy because of the sinister music that came before.

"Hustle"

Instruments: Bass, Kit, Organ, Guitar

Feel: Bouncy, Bright, Driving

The bass guitar plays a familiar rolling Blues riff, while accompanied by organ, acoustic guitar, and drums. A toe-tapping beat plays throughout, and can be used as the background music for a fast-paced game or scene, or as the intro to a scene full of bustling people.

"Sovereign Quarter"

Instruments: Piano

Feel: Calming, Dark

A re-recording of an older piece of mine on a new sample set of a Steinway Model D. This one is tuned to Quarter Comma Meantone (and not standard Equal Temperament). In this piece, it gives an unerringly warm feel, as the notes that would be least in tune in this are never used.

"Divertissement - Pizzicato (from the ballet Sylvia)"

Instruments: Orchestral - Pizz strings, Clarinet, Horn

Feel: Humorous,

Delibes. I am astounded that there are so few recordings of this piece on the net... for a few reasons. 1. Everyone knows this piece (but nearly no one knows what it is called). 2. It is very easy to record (Pizzicato strings have been one of the few samples that have sounded "real" for a long time). 3. The composer is long dead and his stuff is in the Public Domain (Léo Delibes; 1891). And for some background... Sylvia is a 3-Act ballet first produced in 1876. I'm pretty certain this particular piece has nothing to do with the plot - or it wouldn't be called a "divertissement".

"Gymnopedie No. 1"

Instruments: Piano

Feel: Calming, Relaxed, Uplifting

Elegant and slightly dark, the simplicity of the piano melody is light and touching, with a feeling of pensive restraint. It is beautiful accompaniment to the close of a drama, or of a midday reverie. Composed by Erik Satie.

Feel: Bouncy, Humorous

Okay, not quite a synth, not quite and organ - that thing is a mellotron. And it is cool. Interesting baroque changes in the B section. General Space-age cocktail party awesomeness for the entire piece.

"Decisions"

Instruments: Synths, Percussion

Feel: Driving, Intense, Suspenseful

A vocal chorus blends with subtle percussion and panning synth effects that rattles the bones. The choir rises in volume almost imperceptibly before dissolving, leaving a sense of drama and consequence. Perfect for the background music to build suspense and intrigue. Loopable.
