Music
I have performed, written, or arranged all the music featured here. I play the piano, sing baritone/bass, and synthesize on the computer. The licensing for the music can be found here. Anything I compose or arrange will be in a Creative Commons license. Some may be copyrighted with all rights reserved, if I get permission to post music from I Cantori (my college choir) on here. I may not be able to share any of it.
Most modern browsers with a newer Adobe Flash Player should be able to play these files. If you have Firefox with the Adblock plugin, disable it or the music won’t play. I would suggest using the Adblock Plus plugin instead.

Ink & Ivory
This is the first album I’m working on. When it is completed, it should have about ten songs. It will all be piano music that I have written or arranged. That is the only theme, as they will likely all be in different styles.

Digital Audio Production Class
I am currently in an audio production class at Southern, in which we are leased audio equipment and given different assignments to do. I’m posting some of my favorites here. So far, I like the story about the slushy maker the best. It was definitely fun to make!

Techno is for Angry Keyboards
I like to make music on my computer. It can be easier than making it on piano in some ways, but it can often be more complex. The files I will be putting here are by no means finished products. In fact, most will be just beginnings of projects until I find the time to further develop them.

I Cantori
I am part of SAU’s select choir, I Cantori (Latin for “the singers”). Sometimes we do concerts with other people, such as Sietze de Vries, a world-renowned organist from the Netherlands. We also do a lot of a capella music. Some of our music is featured in this two-hour NPR production as part of “Pipe Dreams”. Most of the music is organ music, but in the beginning half, we accompany de Vries in some hymns. He is an excellent organist, and is especially known for his improvisations. He comes to SAU once or twice a year to play on our giant organ with 70 stops. The second half of the program begins with three pieces of just I Cantori: “With a Voice of Singing” (Kenneth Jennings), “Pater Noster” (Javier Busto), and “We Shall Walk Through the Valley in Peace” (Moses Hogan). Enjoy!

so you know I love atmospsherical sounds…will be using some of this Prevo
If I cut a little bit of the first few seconds of Water’s Dance it’s pretty much an exact copy of one of the main Final Fantasy themes dude. I don’t know how you came up with the same tones without having heard it before. Nice job once again, I may be able to add some funk to it…just for fun, I probably wont legit use it, but the section from 1:34-1:46 is promising…
I still haven’t heard the Final Fantasy song yet. I’ve heard one or two, and they sound pretty. I’ll take it as a great compliment to be judged on that level!
Are they supposed to crackle? I have terrible headphones and I am really ignorant, so I wasn’t sure. Anyway, the crackling sounds tickled my ears so that was fun.
And yay techno! I liked that Angry Keyboard song!
Angry keyboards goes really hard man! Love it, just wish it was longer!
I’ve been working on “Angry Keyboards”, and I’ll probably upload a longer version tonight (it’s something like 2 minutes so far).
That crackling sound is probably because of the insane bass in the techno. If you have a nice subwoofer (as I do), you can feel the building shake, even on low volume. I love a strong bass line. I guess it’s because I sing bass. Whatever.
I updated the “Angry Keyboards”. It’s a little longer (1:25), and has a little more to it. It even has some ’80s style something near the end. I don’t even know how I ended up with it. Whatever. I like it.
Prevo….you’re getting on point with the editing and stuff, that Digidance one is better than I remembered it…I like the new additions…you are now officially on that stephenbarrytellem level!
I love techno and this Digidance is making me so happy! I am doing a little dancing here in my chair because it is so much fun. Good job!
Also, I can totally hear the difference after the “reboot.” I like it.
I just played Digidance for my roommate and she says “I really like it a lot”
I have a recommendation for you mr. techno man. This goes so hard man!

Okay, in case you wonder, “Deep #0000ff” means “Deep Blue” because #0000ff is hexadecimal for blue. It makes it even better techno by using techno-speak. Or whatever.
this new song needs makes me think of ants crawling everywhere!!! dunno why.
…..hexadecimal…ur such a geek, curtis…XD decent song, though digidance is still the best.
digidance is indeed the best
that does sound like my progress bar’s progress lol
Very erie and slow, right? It sounded like a progress bar, thus I named it for a progress bar. They all sound like they are named. I make sure of it.
Is anybody else having weird stuff happen to the first three songs on this page? It’s supposed to sound of a pretty piano, if all you know is the garbled nastiness that it seems to have become. It may just be my browser…. I hope.
Curtis you need to fix the first three songs on your browser…it is not just your browser…
Okay, I think I fixed the problem–the bitrates may have been set too high. Sorry. I was trying to give you guys some quality music, but the player just had to go and mess with everything.
