"There's a war going on outside no man is safe from..."

Many live as though sleep, failing to acknowledge the supernatural battles taking place all around them - and within them.

With this track, I acknowledge the war For My Soul and that the victory is already won.

Apekduomai - The enemy has been defeated! Christ the King is victorious...For My Soul

This is another sample flip (sample beat) I made for Future Producers.

This track contains a sample from Thelma Houston's "Don't Leave Me This Way".

I had this idea to do my own rendition of "Come all ye faithful" a couple of weeks ago. I decided later that I didn't want to follow the original at all, but I just wasted a way to "loosely" identify my rendition with the original song that inspired the whole idea.

The original song calls for the worship if Christ The Lord. The historical accounts of Jesus' birth point out that worshiping God was the response of Mary, Zachariah, the Shepherds, the Magi (Wise Men) and many others. With that in mind, I composed this song and named it "Come Let Us Worship Him" with my focus really being that final tag of the original song - "O Come Let Us Adore Him / Christ The Lord."

Here's the SECOND version of my composition - "Come Let Us Worship Him."

Worship Him - Make Music in Reason - Oxygen25 Akai MPD32 Reason 4

Here's my interpretation of a well-known Christmas song that I made a few years ago. This is one of my original Moody instruMental Music creations done using Propellerhead's Reason 4.01 music software, the Akai MPD32 and the M-Audio Oxygen25 USB keyboard controller.

Grace and Peace!

I heard the original song by Sergey Muravyev/Marina Muravyeva and I immediately wanted to do something epic with one of it's parts.

Instead of sampling the original recording, I interpolate a musica; part, playing it myself. I introduces this interpolated part in the first verse and bring it back throughout the track with different voices (instruments).

The Long Goodbye

The haunting sound of the low strings is what i used as the starting point for building the musical canvas. The strong, straight, repeating nature of the orchetration is contrasted with my jazzy, improvisational piano play throughout the track.

A long goodbye scene is the vision I had while making this track. The reality of the relationship's end (goodbye) is hard, set and unchanging. This is reflected with a repeating low piano theme throughout the track. At the same time, the melodic, jazzy piano play attempts to provide assurances that this is not really the end.
