Albums: Some Assembly Required (2004)

Some Assembly Required introduces some new things to the mix. Namely, the DR-770 and PSR-85. Click on the links below to download individual songs from the album.

  1. Stroll [ 2.67meg - 2:55 ] - Ah, the intro track. This one has a goofy little intro with my voice, then moves onto much better things. My favorite part about this song is the beat. The beat is just so catchy that its easy to fall in love with. Overall a pretty simple original, but very groovin' and light-hearted.
  2. Friendly Farce (originally by Geoffio) [ 3.13meg 3:25 ] - I had just heard Geoffio's latest album and was inspired by some of the more melow tunes on it. I just had to remix this one. It's a trippy, pretty mellow, trance song. I put some soothing bongos in there to give it a nice mood to it. The main instrument that plays right from the start has a very uniqe sound to it. Its very subdued which works very well for the song.
  3. Grand Prix (originally from F-Zero) [ 2.27meg 2:28 ] - This startes out with a jazzy vibe rendition of the "silence" theme and then quickly shifts to a fast-paced, hard hitting version of the theme from "whiteland." My favorite part is the distorted bass instrument.
  4. On the Wall (originally by October Bean) [ 3.55meg 3:53 ] - Big thanks to October Bean for giving me the isolated vocal and guitar tracks for this one. This turned out quite well. A trance remix of their alternative rock song. This was the first song I made on this album and it's still one of my favorites. Vocals are by Drew Scott of October Bean.
  5. Land of the Pure (originally from Secret of Mana) [ 3.85meg 4:12 ] - My pride and joy on this album. I put a lot of work into this one. The pureland theme is totally redone, played by me on the PSR-85. The drums are a combination of my DR-770 and software. I actually just started jamming on the piano for the end part of the song, trying to spice things up a bit. Its got a very mellow mood to it. If you download just 1 song on this album, I'd suggest this one.
  6. Disco Link Returns (originally from The Legend of Zelda) [ 2.92meg 3:12 ] - Remember Disco Link from the "FACE!!" album? Well this is a little "version 2." It's a lot less discoey and a lot more technoey actually. This one is not a medley however, just a rendition of the main theme. Three different layers of drum tracks on some parts of this song give the beat a nice complexity. The first half is pretty straightforward, then things shift energy a bit and get a little more interesting. It's quite a bit different from its predecessor.
  7. Mad About Me (Old Tyme Mix) (originally from Star Wars) [ 600kb 0:38 ] - Now here's something trippy. Tons and tons of effects done to the Cantina song making it sound very "old-timey" like its on a record... but with an industrial beat and a sweeping EQ?! More of an intermission than a full song.
  8. Weasel Sniper (featuring Captain Avenger) [ 2.80meg 3:03 ] - This one's a collabrative project by me and my buddy Blake Nelson. He's the one laying down the guitar (3 overlayed tracks worth). It's some fast-paced mayhem. The drums were kind of inspired by Prodigy's first album, "Experience." Very fast, very crazy and such.
  9. I Feel Loved (originally by Depeche Mode) [ 4.20meg 4:35 ] - I got very into Depeche Mode for awhile and felt the need to remix one of their songs. This sounds a lot different from the original. It has a much "darker" mood to it. I like a lot of the different synth instruments going on in this song. It has a very sweeping sound to it.
  10. Funky Woods (originally from Zelda: A Link to the Past) [ 2.04meg 2:13 ] - I found the perfect voice clip to start the song out with. A clip of some Zintrodi spies from the old cartoon, Robotech, thinking disco is some sort of torture used by humans... priceless. Anyway on to the song. It has a very discoey beat to it and a pretty mellow sound. The strings and flutes fit the atmosphere very well for the forest theme. Overall, a really simple mix.
  11. Kraid's Nest (originally from Metroid) [ 2.48meg 2:43 ] - This was my very first attempt at playing live keyboard in a song. All instruments in the song are from the PSR-85 and the drums were all done on my DR-770. The composition was done with software. It's fairly simple. Instruments consisted of a synth lead, bass, and violin. It was a very different process than I was use to doing.
  12. Pure Red (originally from F-Zero) [ 2.02meg 2:12 ] - Well I have a confession. This WAS actually a B-side from the last album originally that I reworked and released. It's the Red Canyon theme from F-Zero with a nice constant beat and some distorted riffs.
  13. Face Down (Heavy Mix) [ 2.34meg 2:33 ] - This was one of my originals from the "FACE!!" album. This version is very different, however. It still contains that dark atmosphere that the original had, but it's much more "hard-hitting". Maybe even a little darker than the last one. And very bassy by the way... just a warning.
