New Music Podcast!

Posted on December 15, 2011 at 1:50 AM

I've just created a music podcast on the site. There you'll be able to listen to regularly updated music that I've created. Some files will be available for download as well! If you follow my Newgrounds, some of the music on there will be on here, and some of it will not. Also, a lot of music on the podcast won't be available on Newgrounds, so there will be a lot of new content on here. You'll be able to comment and discuss the music, too. So I hope you check it out and comment what you think. The first entry is a Christmas song I've done, an epic Carol of the Bells. Enjoy!

This is Symphony No. 15 Op. 23. As I composed a symphony for my first son, William, this one is for my second son, Geoffrey. I think it's a good musical representation for the little guy who is exactly five months old today (5/28/2011). Enjoy

Also, join the site to receive a free download of my album, Annihilation: A Space Opera.

Thanks,

I composed a symphony (Symphony No. 14 Op. 22) that is a musical interpretation of a brilliant painting by an artist called keepwalking. The painting is just amazing craftsmanship. I had fun making this symphony and to me it really captures the feel of the epic standoff and battle between the hulking Golem and the weaker but more agile Mech. Enjoy

Update No. 2 !!

In Act 1, we have three parts again: The Hunt For The Heralds, Alliances and Gods Of Ages Past. Annihilus hunts down the former Heralds of Galactus to turn into his war slaves, as he is aware of their immense Power Cosmic. He hopes to eventually enslave Galactus himself. Meanwhile, Thanos the Titan allies himself willingly with Annihilus. He does this out of amusement more than anything. "To see what will happen." Other alliances are formed to combat the Annihilation Wave. Elsewhere, Galactus the Devourer informs Silver Surfer that the ancient prison first attacked by Annihilus may have released two Proemial Gods: Tenebrous and Aegis, whom he imprisoned when the universe was very young. These two ancient Gods would no doubt have a eons long grudge against the Devourer...
