Divine Crossing:
At a point in your life a crossroad will appear, and the choice will be yours to follow the path of a predestination written in the stars, and paved toward the heavens. In the end, you will always make the right choice.
Abysmal Insurgence:
The Abysmal depths which lie below, hold a power
we have come to know. Let us not forsake the powers that be, to that we will
find great misery...
Dawning Awareness:
Carry the Light, share the Love, and spread the
Joy... And although it may seem your light is dim, your love is fading, and
your joy is diminished... KNOW that this is a brief Eclipse from the truth
of your beingness, and who you really are... Fear not the Eclipse, as the
Light awaits you sooner than you think...
Elliptical Bi-Stream:
The Journey of two souls; achieving escape velocity through
elliptical perpetuation. From the Material Realms of slumber, toward the
path of oneness, streaming through the cosmos, merging with the heavens...

Discography Samples:
UltraViolet
:
A Beautiful Piano Piece from my Electra Prime Album.
Although an older Piano Piece I created, still one of my best: "A delicate ray shone my way to embrace me in her light.
Pulled forth I went, no energy spent, to behold Electra's sight."
Illusions of Time II:
A piece from my Oracles in Motion Album, this takes
Synthesis to a whole new level. All sounds you are hearing were created by
me, using an E-MU UltraProteus Z-Plane Synth, Ensoniq Mirage DSK-1 Sampler,
and a Kawai K1-II Additive Synth. All Bass and Drum parts were hand crafted,
no Sequencing. Yes that's right, this is a true "Band in a Box" created from
scratch by yours truly! No real drums, guitars, and all screaming leads were
my fingers on pressure sensitive keys with creative use of Mod and Pitch
Wheels!

Music Philosophy and Biography:
It was during my childhood that I resonated deep meaning to the vibration of
sound. I was always fascinated by the organized structure of sound, and how it
influenced an emotional response within those it touched. This organized
structure of sound was given a name: Music. Of all the languages on this planet,
music has the deepest impact within all cultures, and is the universal
translator of personal emotion.
At the age of 15, I started experimenting with acoustic guitar, drums, and
various wind instruments. But it wasn’t until the age of 18 that I discovered an
instrument that would give me the opportunity to fully express a deeper part of
my innermost thoughts, emotions, and essential being.
The Synthesizer allowed me to not only create compositions that would normally
take an entire orchestra to compose, but the artistic power to sculpt the
vibration of sound itself. It was this factor alone that made it possible to
fully manifest an expressed desire into an audible medium.
A philosophy I have adhered to during the compositional process is to void ones
thoughts of all other musical influences. The earliest release available here
was created during 1993. It is from that time, until around 1998 that I used
this philosophy to abstain from listening to any other artist’s music. I also
knew that I couldn’t take traditional music lessons, as they are centered upon
the influence of music that has already been created. With this philosophy in
practice, it was possible to delve within who I really was as an artist, and
bring forth the true, un-influenced core of my creativity.
The music I have created has been labeled many genres: New Age, Fantasy, Space,
Spiritual, Meditative, Ambient, and Electronic to name a few. But I have always
considered my music to be an inspirational manifestation brought forth from the
core essence of my being. Every sound you hear within the music was created
solely by me with raw custom and preset waveforms, using various Synthesizer
programming and Sampling techniques.
Within the many release pages on the menu to the left of this page, you will
also find more than a gateway toward the music. You will find that although my
music is lyric free, it is full of literature. I believe that although music has
a great emotional power over the listener, the meaning of each song interpreted
into literary form can have an equal impact over ones emotion.
I also believe the power of visual art has this
effect as well. I personally designed each release cover to reflect a deeper
meaning of the music within. Through the combined creative power of Music, Art,
and Literature, I believe this completes the cycle of creativity I wish to share
with you from the depths of my soul.
It is with great honor that I share the depths of my creative spirit with anyone
who wishes to partake of its sonic vibration. I hope you enjoy listening to my
music as much as I have enjoyed creating it. A sample of each and every song is
available for your listening pleasure in the Music Store. I thank you for the
opportunity of becoming a part of your Musical experience.
