"A beautiful piece of relaxing "smooth jazz" island music. It really took me back to growing up with my grandma, as we would always relax to this type of music while she and my (now deceased) grandfather read the Sunday paper. Bright,…"

Accretion Disk... (and more)

Hey Everyone, I've been quite busy. I've composed 4 pieces in the last week, one of which I'm more proud of than the others. Although, I will include all of them that I have completed. My most inspired piece in my humble opinion is Accretion Disk, telling the story of the formation of an accretion disk (hence the name) in outer space. Inspired, in part, by Interstellar, although I haven't familiarized myself…See More

"Hi Benjamin This is very nicely put together, the tone is good and all the added effects are appropriate. As far as the music goes you do a fine job of layering all the different parts together and there is nothing wrong with the orchestration. My…"

Creatures of the Night

So this last weekend I was very sick with a cold/flu. During my fever, and as a result of being inside alone for several days, I hallucinated some very interesting creatures, and had some bizarre dreams. This piece is my exposition of that experience. Enjoy! Thank you all for your critiques and comments! I hope to be able to spend some time on the forums again soon. https://app.box.com/s/u02egon2i7ew682ewdxpjabf6lac89llSee More

About Me (Must include biographical information about you as a composer):
I have been composing, performing and editing music for over 20 years. I have extensive experience in soundtrack music, background music, short pieces, and long projects. I have been composing for full orchestra since about 2004.

I graduated Douglas Anderson School of the Arts with Honors in Music Performance. I attended the University of North Florida to study and perform orchestral classical music and composition.

I have worked with electronic artists and various music genres outside of classical, though that remains my focus.
