Fantasies of Another World

NEWS 20090206: My album is now on sale on CDBaby.com. You can purchase it here.

Fantasies of Another World album cover As of February 6, 2009, my first album, "Fantasies of Another World", is on sale at cdbaby.com. Buy it! Buy it today! All the cool kids are doing it.

The music is modern, energetic classical. All of the music was composed by me, and played and recorded on my computer. The music is essentially a group of scenes. I imagined each scene, then composed music for each. Sometimes the music comes first, and then I make a name for it, and sometimes I imagine the scene first, and fit the music to the scene.

Sometimes the samples links on cdbaby.com don't work, so I'm including my own recordings of the samples on this site. Two of the songs can be heard in their entirety. The samples below are recorded from cdbaby.com. In other words, they're the same samples as heard on cdbaby.com.
