These are side projects I do on my own. I write, play, record and produce them all.

Cooler Climates was a burst of inspiration I had over a three month period. I've used Sonar (formerly Cakewalk) for years as a recording platform but never as a song writing tool, so I picked up an EM-U Proteus 2000 and stuffed it with ROMs which allowed me to create some really interesting songs. I consider them "Chill" music more than anything. Some have suggested they would make good movie soundtracks. Who knows.

Worlds Apart was a project I started after a dry spell with no bands or studio work. I decided to write and play on a cd of my own. Sounded good at the time but by the time I knocked out 10 songs I was burned out. I recorded and produced 6 of the 10 songs but only 4 came out good and the other 3 are ok. The rest either sucked or I didn't have lyrics for them. I know I can't sing and the vocals are there only as a scratch track for a real vocalist, which I never found.
