I put this little piece together on two weekends in a period where I wished that a time shift would occur and I could jump ahead a few weeks in time (to know what comes next, of course ;-)…this was just before I moved from Austria to California). I really enjoyed recording the verse solo guitar for this one, in particular because of the cool guitar sound that is sort of in between crunchy and distorted and played with the neck pickup in single-coil mode of my 7-string. Also the tapping part of the main heavy solo was quite challenging to get it the way I wanted it.
This is my Christmas Medley 2005. It’s a medley of the traditional, German Christmas carol “Oh du Fröhliche” and John Lennon’s “Happy Christmas”. Of course, there’s a bit of shredding in there as well, otherwise it wouldn’t be one of my recordings, but I hope you enjoy it nevertheless 😉
This is a slow instrumental tune that was created very quickly on the acoustic guitar. The acoustic guitar that plays the rhythm is actually my really crappy nylon-string acoustic 😉 This is something I had lying around for a while and thought I’d never complete, but alas it is finished now and I thought I might as well release it publicly. It’s very different from the music I usually make and also listen to.
This is the Christmas Medley I record for my friends as a kind of Christmas gift every year. This time it’s a medley of “Merry Little Christmas” and “Joy to the World”. It’s a mixture of fusion and punk rock. Enjoy!
This is quite a heavy, short, instrumental shredding rock piece that I put together in a hurry. It was inspired by one of the video games I was working on at work at the time I composed this. That video game was an action game involving a helicopter flying around in the desert, and that’s what I had in mind when writing this little tune.
This is the Christmas medley I record every year, this time for 2003. It turned out to be quite heavy this year…ah well 🙂 There are three Christmas carols in the medley. Can you recognize all of them?
Another instrumental rock song I recorded very quickly and totally out of the blue. I really love the instrumental interlude. Actually there are also lyrics and a vocal part for this song, but I’m not much of a singer so I decided to release a karaoke (off-vocal) version first and, when I get the chance, record the vocals with a good vocalist later on.
This is the karaoke (off-vocal) version of a song I wrote some time ago. Since I’m not that great of a singer I decided to record the vocals once I get a good vocalist to do the vocals properly. For now just enjoy it as quite heavy instrumental rock piece with some weird measure changes in there 🙂
This is a cover version of the Pulp Fiction theme that I recently recorded. Now for a bit of trivia that a lot of people probably don’t know (including me, until it was pointed out to me by a nice fellow via e-mail): The original artist of this song is Dick Dale and the song is originally called “Miserlou”.
