The first three of the tunes I posted here were “live-looped”, so... one take, no overdubs, no edits, warts ‘n’ all.
The last four are some of my algorithmic compositions.
For these I write code that generates musical stuff based on rules I specify, and then I fiddle around with in Logic Pro X.
Z7
This is a rehearsal with my drummer friend, “Jamie”.
Z7 is an original tune. I like odd meters.
I played all the parts, except drums, on my looping pedal
It’s pretty rough, but wtf.
Gnossienne No. 1
Gnossienne No. 1 is my only “cover tune”.
It’s by composer Erik Satie.

Influences
Too many to list but "Frank Zappa" is at the top of the list.
This doesn't mean that I try to play or compose like FZ.
He's just a major inspiration and musical hero for me.

Z7 (Rehearsal)
Z7 (Rehearsal) Album: Blue Dream (Rehearsal) Genre: Progressive
Z7 is an original tune in 7/8. I played all guitar/synth parts live, using a looping pedal. There were no overdubs. My friend, Jamie Taylor played drums. This was a rehearsal recording, so... it's a little rough.
