Audio Samples:
"Remake Cursive" is my attempt to make something entirely out of software instruments while trying to keep it from sounding completely goofy...the bass and drums sound decent to me but I find it impossible to get realistic guitar sounds out of a computer...the composition is not entirely original as I was trying to copy the sound of something I was listening to.

"Arrival" is a clip from my most recent band with which I played bass and contributed some synthesized elements. Unfortuantely I had to quit playing with them in order to move across the country. They are still going strong and you can check out their happenings at http://myspace.com/theprisonersdilemma...I've been replaced, but I was there for everything they have up on their site to this date as far as writing and recording.
