Music

While I’m waiting to gather together enough tunes to create a CD, I’m releasing tracks in the Weed format. These Windows Media Player files (click here to download the Windows version for 98SE/ME/2K, here for Windows XP, and here for the Mac player) may be freely downloaded, sent to others, and played three times for free. On the fourth listen, you’ll be asked if you want to purchase it, with instructions on how to proceed. For more information on Weed (which you might consider as a way to release your own music!), click here.

Here are the files, with a little bit of info on each one. Click on the title to listen or download.

The Miami Beat - Kind of a pop/dance type of tune, with vocals, guitar, and some fun samples.

I’ve Seen the Future - A somewhat dreamy, very electronic song with vocals and guitar. It’s gotten very good comments from listeners.

Big Dog - A semi-goofy danceable instrumental with big drums, rave-type synth elements, and some gratuitous dog samples. A remix was released in the German market.

Fly There with Me - This song is about getting away from it all, complete with samples of airports and trains. It has kind of a downtempo ska feel.

What Are You Waiting For? - This is another tune that was remixed for the German market and has appeared on a couple of compilations. Vocals and guitar, with a definitely modern type of feel.

Goa Girlz - This instrumental has a bit more of an ethnic feel, with some evocative lead guitar work. Check it out.

Where Are the Caribou? - One of the cool things about releasing music online is that it’s no big deal to put up some demos and outtakes. This is an old demo, but a lot of people like it and said I should post it…so here it is.
