Example 1: Audio test for RPG Game.
This test was conducted for a Bay Area gaming company. The test was completed in less than 2 hours of work, following the parameters listed below.
Design Parameters: The scene begins with our main character in a small village square. There is a fountain in the middle, from which she takes a sip of water. After the refreshment is imbibed, our hero begins a journey into the dark woodlands surrounding the town. Walking on a well worn path, she makes steady progress until... Stopped dead in her tracks by two beasts of the forest, she defends with her trusty blade, quickly drawn from its scabbard. The fight rages on, with a flurry of attacks and swift defense from both sides of the battle. The first of the two monsters suffer a fatal wound and cries out in agony as it falls. The second attacker thinks better of the situation and makes a hasty retreat. Being the sworn protector of this small realm, our heroine does what she must. She plucks a strong arrow from her quiver and loads it up. Taking dead aim, she befalls the second beast as it runs across a low swampland area… As she catches her breath from her latest effort, a strange noise rumbles off in the distance. As the sound gets closer and increases in volume, her gaze is drawn skyward. Two military fighter jets fly overhead. She emits a sound as she thinks to herself, What the heck?!?!
Example 2: Performing and Production for Karaoke.
This track was created for a worldwide karaoke supplier, along with many other projects. The challenge behind this projects was to accurately perform the instruments to reflect the original performances. Also, the mixing and treatment had to display a result that mirrored the original recordings. Extensive research was essential, along with an immense understanding of effects and processors, and its applications. Come Undone, by Duran Duran.
Example 3: Karaoke II.
Same as above, song by Black Sabbath.
Example 4: Dream of the Matador.
On this track, the idea was to create a very hypnotic tune that could be used for video, without taking focus off the visuals.
Example 5: Karaoke III - Incubus.
Incubus' Megalomaniac song for Karaoke Productions.
Example 6: Banghradesh.
Flavor from India in a simple arrangement for a short documentary.
Example 7: Karaoke IV.
Take me out, by Franz Ferdinand.
Example 8: More Karaoke.
Blondie's Heart of Glass.
Example 9: Another Incubus tune.
Talk Shows on Mute.
Example 10: DubMahal.
Another song for a short documentary.
Example 11: Horror Scene.
Ambience and atmosphere for a horror scene build-up.
Example 12: Tune 5.
Just for the sake of power riffs.
