Music Samples

In the spring of 2023 I started working on new material featuring the tenor and soprano saxophone accompanied by music that I have been producing. These are all songs I’m developing for a catalogue for sync music and production music for beats and for my own growth as a music producer.

I Survived

Tenor Saxophone, Chill Hop

My first release on Tenor Saxophone. I Survived is a reflection on my state of being after loosing my wife in 2018 to cancer. Wondering what I was going to do next, I chose to reconnect to the saxophone after had put it down for over 30 years.

Melting into One

Tenor Saxophone, Chill Hop

Inside the self and the other is a shared space of oneness. Letting go to the resistance to being in the One is the surrendering journey of compassion.

I What Could have Been

Tenor Saxophone, Blues Waltz

A reflection on the past remembering the challenges and staying in the present, in the determination to rise above all the obstacles.

Naughty Cat

Soprano Saxophone, Chill Hop Jazz

A playful jazzy production that felt like it was messing with me because I struggle with the getting the feel I wanted from the background track.

Eternal Power

Soprano Saxophone, New Age - Neo Classical

I first recorded in the early 1999 as a 30 minute long meditation. It helped me define a sound on the soprano that I would guide me back to floating and serenity. Unfortunately at that time my embouchure was overly tight and made it extremely painful to play the sax for any length of time. Now in 2023 I’ve learned to relax and now I can play the soprano with out pain.

Talking in Circles

Soprano Saxophone, New Age - Neo Classical

An Improvised song that came together quickly, started with piano then added the sax melody.

Misty

Tenor Saxophone, Jazz Standard

A beautiful longing melody that softly touches the soul, I love playing this on the edge of the emotions, edge of softness, cutting through to the center.

Autumn Leaves

Soprano Saxophone, Jazz

One of the greatest Jazz standards, this song is built on the chord progression that is the fundamental building bloc of most Jazz standards. This version I produced a backing track with a playful gypsy jazz guitar track and had fun with the improvisation.
