Lithium is finally available. I talked about it extensively in the previous post so I’ll refrain from re-stating everything, just go listen to it.
The new song titled “Lithium” will be coming out Tuesday this week. It is a little different from my usual style; it has a very synthesized tone and an overall dark feel to it. It really does seem like a soundtrack to a movie. It is more of a trance song and is awesome to listen to and be inspired by when doing other activities. The main beat was created in a cool online game called Piano Lina (see my video section). I then did some heavy editing in Garageband, it also incorporates sounds from a new program I’ve been trying out called FL Studio. Half way through I decided to try out an idea that I had awhile ago to add small imperfections in the song, so you’ll notice at several points the song will skip and come off beat; I think it really makes the song more interesting. It is a very repetitive song and really only comprises of three tracks but it is the longest song I’ve made yet, it clocks in at around 5:30. Lithium is truly a unique experience and I urge you to take a listen tomorrow.
(Note: I also opened up comments on the main page, please don’t make me regret doing this)
I know I haven’t updated in awhile. I have been busy finishing up the last few weeks of school. But this summer I’m going to be coming back strong with a huge array of content. I still plan to have Lithium finished sometime within this month but I don’t know how much further I’ll get than that. I have no video lined up yet but I keep bouncing ideas around in my head. I may also start a serialized fiction series on the site. New Logo?

I finally added a video to the video section. Its of a little flash app called Piano Lina which combines a game and making music. Its not much of a video but its a demonstration on how I plan to create my next song.
I haven’t accomplished much in the past week on account of me being very busy with school. I hope to accomplish more this weekend and with any luck the next song will be out by next weekend.
Sorry about not updating when the song came out. I have had a really busy week so far but this weekend I should be able to get some more work done, like updating you guys. Anyways I finally released the next song for now a total of three songs. I really liked making this song because of all the different styles and instruments packed into one song. The people that have listened to the song already have described it as a “trance” kind of song. I guess the next song will head further into trance beats and feels. Truth be told I haven’t even started the next song yet but I plan to this weekend.
The next song in the Haunt series is out. I will tell you a little more about what I think of the song and how I made it at a later date. Listen
The site is growing in visitors much quicker than I thought. The next song is very close to release, I will try to release it tonight. I am also on the verge of starting my first video project.
I keep getting spikes in traffic to the site its weird. In any case I’m happy for every viewer I get. This weekend I plan to stock up on energy drinks and get a lot done with the next song. I’ll keep you posted on my progress. Also I put up my computer on Craigslist

Ether was released yesterday and I decided to get a jump start on the next project. Sorry I’m not releasing the name of the next song yet, but I feel it will be the best so far. It puts to rest the spooky under tones of the last two songs for a more metal and techno style. I’m hoping this song will best utilize my tools and skills. It may take longer to release than the last two but I am not releasing it until it is perfect. On a side note while I was playing the lead guitar part a string on my guitar broke (right in the middle of recording). It couldn’t break when I was practicing but only when Im playing the final version on the computer does it friggen snap and fly from the bridge and right up the neck into my ring finger, Ouch! Once that small problem is taken care of it will be back to music making as usual. If anyone wishes to comment on any of the content here please send me an email mediapresstv@gmail.com.
