Music Composition

Selected Work
I create original scores for the the live events, write original music for release, and compose for films or podcasts.

Composition for Theater:

As a composer for theater I have to be genre flexible. Below are three shows done in completely different styles, written by exploring three unique creative processes. 
The Transition of Doodle Pequeño Hiphop & Guitar Composition
Macbeth Experimental Dark Orchestral Composition
Winter's Tale Orchestral/Electronic Composition and Vocal Coaching

Non-Traditional Event Composition:

These are two non-theater events I composed for. Slow No Wake was composed by collecting field recordings from Lake Erie and then looping/editing them live each night. Akron Haunted School House & Laboratory is a seven floor immersive "scare experience." Throughout its various floors there were two hours of customized material playing on loops in each room.

Continued Composition Samples:

These are samples of my original music which range from orchestral scores to quiet songs about moving to California. Many of them are taken from larger projects (theater pieces, short films, art exhibits). 

Experimental Electronic Composition: 

These pieces are mixture of granular synthesis, effect processing and binaural synthesis.

Basement:

In early 2018, I wrote the music for the short film Basement directed by Rachel Ramras. It was upbeat electronic music composed in Protools. Here is the link to the IMDb page:
