Cold Water (Tom Waits cover)

Recorded live from a gig I played last Friday at the Cameron House in Toronto, with a new band called Roughlands. I'm on upright bass

Robot Bambi Finds His Mother

What I hope deep down inside is that someday there will be a music video for this song detailing what the title suggests.

DJ Assault - Take It In the Face (Remix)

I'm going to put it right out there that you shouldn't listen to this if you are easily offended. I definitely am not trying to offend anybody with this one and hopefully that doesn't happen... but if you don't take it too seriously it will probably give you a laugh!

Kate Bush - This Woman's Work (remix)

I guess I'm sort of a sucker for remixing ol' Kate. But it's hard to resist when her voice sounds good, and so many of her songs have stripped down arrangements that lend themselves well to sampling.

CyberLover

I think my favorite part in this one is the shots at 1:55! Also featuring a brief bit of good old ROBOT VOX at 3:32

HoverBoardzzzz

I imagine this as the music for one of those games where you're flying down a neon space tunnel or wormhole or something, dodging asteroids and mythical space creatures. Or maybe one of those levels in Battletoads where you're riding, well, hoverboards.

Barnyard Friends

I definitely cannot really explain why this is titled as such.

Let's Kick It

Featuring a devastating guitar solo by dagosto Hey, does anyone live between Calgary and Toronto? I'm moving cities and using it as an excuse to do a tour! Would you like me to come throw a dance party in your town?

Snow Cone, Faux Cone, Bro Cone

Do you play guitar? If you can play the synth solo that starts at 2:03 I will give you the BIGGEST HUG EVER

Excellent Unicorn

I hope that Futurecop doesn't mind that I'm ripping off their style verbatim. I know that I sure don't. This was fun as hell to make.

Orillia

Basically just trying to sound as much like Bit Funk as possible... uptempo minimal dance with spacey dreamy synths.

Cambie & Hastings

A more mellowed-out trinket of instrumental dance music for the wistful and introspective; born out of an epic evening of adventure in Vancouver at an intersection of the same name.

Nathaniel Hortense Bardsley versus Her Majesty's Loyal Brigade of Cosmic Oscillators

I guess this basically sort of sounds like Riverdance if it was played on a bunch of crazy synths.

Joni Mitchell - Both Sides Now (Thumbs-Up Dance Remix)

Some classic Joni with a heavy injection of DANCE.

Dizzee Gets Synthy

I hadn't heard the original tune before adding a groove to Dizzee's vocal track, so I kind of screwed up where the downbeat went. Nonetheless, here's some Dizzee Rascal with some synthy samples!

Cindy and Steve

Dance beats and synth hooks underscore the classic breakup story of two digital lovers in Computer Land.

Kate Bush - Bertie (Blissout Mix)

A little dance remix of a Kate Bush tune sampled off my turntable... just wanted to try making something super happy and dancey out of a very beautifully written song.

Teens In Love In Space

Title inspired by a friend's idea for a new comic book. An ultra-happy electro love-fest with all the fixings... handclaps, warm synth pads, uplifting key changes, sparkly arps. Enjoy!

DanceDanceDanceDanceDance (Part I)

A dance anthem for our time.

Spin Dash

A high-octane, in-your-face synth-strumental. Funky synth bass catapults into swirling portamento melodies and a punchy 5-part harmony in the chorus. Sonic the Hedgehog samples add to the fun.

Carrot Adventure

Made in my parents' basement one strange winter morning a few years ago. While originally intended completely as a joke/a fun way to kill time, it remains just about the only song I've done that people actually request at shows. Wait for the arpeggiator at the end!

Synthoween

Made in FL Studio in about 40 minutes, in response to a friend's last-minute request for a silly halloween song to play on her radio show. Though I really didn't intend on it, the intro sort of sounds like the intro to the Ghostbusters theme... with scream samples.
