First there was stuff! Whether it was rock, funk, soul or whatever is irrelevant. We’ll just call it by the name of pop. Pop was placed inside records, transmitted by radio waves, it reached listeners and it was good.

Then there was reproduction by machines that were capable of producing sound. The sound – which was definately not as organic as the pop it was trying to imitate – was ideal for newly invented things called computers. So the sound was placed inside computer programs to accompany games, and dang it, was it good.

Now we’ve reached the point when we’ve started to imitate the imitation. There’s a musical genre called ”chiptune”, which essence is to emulate the early electronic music. Early meaning 1980s, when computers and video game systems became household items.

If you don’t want to be too mainstream and dare look way back to the history, I suggest the likes of Léon Theremin and Karlheinz Stockhausen. Now that’s some early electronic madness!

Enough with this blabbering. Some chiptune for ye: ACTIONFACE.

Concerning this sites genre ”mood”. The songs on this category deal with:

– Emotions (happy, sad, confused, etc)
– Effects (comical, scary, mystical, etc)
– Actions (running, thinking vigorously, yawning, etc)

And…

– Combinations of those three mentioned above. Songs that contain shameless genre hopping within a tune, will be placed here. (Or somewhere else.)

I don’t know what kind of an overall impression CUTE AND HEROIC BALLAD AND ROCK is supposed to create. Perhaps something like: ”no pain, no gain” or ”after all everything turned out just fine”.

You be the judge. And jury. But please not the executioner.

To celebrate 1st of December, I present thee my tune for the upcoming holiday. This time, right on time.

There are many kinds of christmases: Consumeristic urban one, just like any other holiday one, partying with friends while wearing a silly hat one, performing feats of strenght around the aluminum pole one.

In WINTER SOLSTICE PEACE I tried to capture the mood of the christmas in the most traditional ways. You know, icy lake, red socks, the smell of christmas tree, presents, candles, tons of food and so on. The memories from the childhood mixed up with images from books & movies.

Enjoy.

1970s movie soundtracks are great. At the time funk was hip and jazz elements hasn’t completely been eliminated from (American) mainstream film scores. Jazz & funk, brass & Rhodes piano, fancy chords & wah-wah, all of ’em matches made in heaven.

These elements are mostly evident in countless awesome blaxploitation movies. Coffy, Foxy Brown and Shaft, just to name a few.

70S THRILLS got its inspiration from car chases, mean fistfights, flamboyant pimps, ruthless pushers and overall badassery of those movies.

The poppiest kind of pop music is almost always predominantly vocal oriented. Therefore making a RnB instrumental can be challenging because well, you can’t get a synthesizer to sound like Beyoncé. But still you gotta have a melody.

My solution in DARK PINK was to take the vocal melody playing in my head, and turn it to a simplified and synthesized form. Like there was any alternatives…

’Nuff said. Some RnB for you!

I’ve tried to resist the urge to remake some of my own top hits, the songs that I’ve made way before this site. Yes, I’ve tried and a few times failed miserably. BRIDE OF THE PSYGNOSIS is a result of such a failure.

I originally made the song in the mid 90s on dads Macintosh, which was at the time the leading force on computer music. I tell you, it was a heck of a nostalgia trip to put this together.

Whether the tune is any good as a remake, well, I guess I’m the only human capable of being the judge. Unless someone has infiltrated my apartment, found the dusty old floppy discs from my drawer and managed to find an antique mac and all the additional hardware to run it with.

Yes, I completely missed Halloween. No scary music for you. Gotta start preparing for the next years event.

I thought that after hallowed times you might need something non-scary to keep life in balance. The tune is titled ”Bubbly happy”, and it can be found in HERE.

I hereby proudly present thee a brand new site for all your musical needs. The price for a piece that’s on this site is, and will always be 0 dollars, euros, pounds and rubles.

You gotta start somewhere. The start in this case is 50 pieces of music, at least two in each of the 16 genres.

16 genres that should cover the whole globe and history of music?

Well, no. That should just give you an idea of what I’m about to do. Stuff from ambience to rock, with jazz in the middle. And there’s always the genre ”unique”, which I added as a backup for songs that are completely uncategorizable. And believe me, my brain hurt real bad, when I tried to limit and simplify those genres…

I will be adding new songs on a regular basis. This might vary a bit, depending whether I’m working on a short and simple tune or a long and complicated opera. Let’s just say that I will be updating the site once a week.

I hope you enjoy and find use for my stuff.
