Hello, Old Friend

You can hear my Martin DC Aura on rhythm. My Gibson Gary Moore signature Les Paul is swapping lead licks with a Behringer Poly D analog synth. A Rickenbacker 4003 bass is going through a Zoom B3 pedal set for the “TremoZep” patch. The drums were created with a BeatBuddy, as usual.
Temporal Cease-Fire

A Behringer Poly D was used to create the helicopter sound. A Moog Mavis mounted in a NiftyKEYZ keyboard enclosure provided some melody and other effects.
Space Creatures

A Behringer Poly D was used for creating the ominous drone and wind sound. A Moog Mavis mounted in a NiftyKEYZ keyboard / Eurorack enclosure provided the creature sounds.
Looper’s Lament

This was composed on an Aeros Loop Studio, which I still struggle with from time-to-time. My only lament was that the synth tracks had a bit of rhythm guitar on the left channel, which I didn’t notice until I imported the audio files into my DAW. I’ve managed to prevent that in the past, but it got by me this time.
That Day at the Lighthouse (2022)

This is an original instrumental song I wrote and recorded way back in 2013. This version has a couple of added synth tracks (bass and an alternate lead). It features the Behringer Poly D (mini Moog clone) on the keyboard tracks. The guitar tracks feature my 2011 Fender American Deluxe Stratocaster.
Stillness at Sunup

A very chill piece, considering it has a Samba drum track. It features a Martin DC Aura on rhythm with a Moog Mavis analog synth providing an ethereal lead. A Rickenbacker 4003 provides the bass. Composed and recorded in one evening. Drums by BeatBuddy.
American Outside Woman Impromptu

The title of this song comes from the fact that I used a tone on my Les Paul that was reminiscent of something between “American Woman” and “Outside Woman Blues.” Impromptu was added because, well, it isn’t a blues song and the leads were pretty much ad-lib.
Strats and Vibes

A “feel good” instrumental with a driving bass line and several layers of Stratocaster, including a simulated vibraphone track. What’s not to like?

Kind of a contemplative, ambient sound. Featuring my Behringer Poly D synth on sequencer with the lead played on a Moog Mavis mounted in a NiftyKEYZ keyboard Eurorack keyboard / enclosure. Drums by BeatBuddy

This one used a recycled riff from one of my songs from years ago. I wanted to try something simple with my #Martin DC Aura and a #mellow #analogsynth sound using a #minimoog clone (#BehringerPolyD).

This was my attempt at a horror soundtrack, more or less. It features a Behringer Poly D on lead with a Moog Mavis / NifyKEYZ keyboard supplying the rhythm sequence while synced to the BeatBuddy pedal drum machine’s MIDI output.
