My true colors.MIDI programming is the primary way I compose and create music. I program and record at home, using a variety of antiquated software and hardware methods. I typically get pretty good results with my recordings, although I'm usually about 20 years behind the technology curve! CDs of some of my work can be purchased here.

In 2003, I recorded a series of demo tracks using a nifty little software wavetable synthesizer called WinGroove. I think of these tracks as pop songs in the making. Some have melodies, and some don't. They aren't the best-sounding recordings, but I think they are the best examples of my programming skills and original musical ideas.


Cover Projects

Here are some examples of other artists' songs I have programmed for various projects. These files are presented in General MIDI format.

Naked Eyes Live
This past year, Naked Eyes began touring again. Although one half of the duo (Rob Fisher) is now deceased, the remaining member (Pete Byrne) is touring successfully with a new backup band. There was one problem, however, in preparing for the tour: the original synth sequences, which were programmed by Rob, no longer existed! I was contacted and asked to help program new versions of these classic songs, essentially reverse-engineering them by ear, and Naked Eyes is now performing with these tracks! Check them out, and compare them to the original tunes!
