My First Official Solo Release is a Movie Score.

That's actually kind of sad considering how long I've been RECORDING solo ideas and the hundreds of sessions stored on my drive never released. I've recently felt a big push in me to begin releasing music on the regular. So, more on that very soon!

In every other way, though, it's an amazing experience for a first release!

I simply responded to Mark Borison (director) who I didn't know at the time, in a musicians facebook group we were/are in together, He was looking for someone to compose a score for his short sci-fi/horror film Subject 6 Alpha 2.

Sounded fun to me!

I've done compositions for Incendium Arts, and a slew of amateur films (like $0 Budget kind of amateur). and this was to be no different (lol), but what made me jump on the opportunity was that he wanted it to be more in the Trent Reznor/Atticus Ross direction than Hanz Zimmer or Danny Elfman,

This was perfect for me because 1) I'm a fan of their music and film scores, and 2) it's an approach where you want to find sounds that elicit emotion when you tweak the filters, delays, modulators, instead of relying on 5 scale melodies and full orchestra. It's more synthy, drony, minimalist and creepy, or at least dark and introspective, at times.

Tweaking the knobs comes into play big time here.

Huh huh, yeah I said tweaking the knobs, but seriously, when you manipulate sounds, you get completely unique, one-of-a-kind textures to use.

I've been a part of lots of band related releases but this is my very first solo release under my name. It's being released in tandem with a mobile outdoor screening event that I'll be posting about soon.

Preview and PRE-ORDER my S6A2 Suite on Bandcamp Now.

Available on ALL Major Streaming Platforms on September 25th!!

First Teaser released for Luscious Dogs Debut EP

Fire Walks With Me. As lyric videos go, I wanted to make this unique and engaging without relying on some automated text animation thing like most videos. There's some of that, too, but every image you see was handmade and video taped with a camcorder. I made some pieces myself, and also big thanks to the artists at OTHERWORLD Immersive Art Experience in Columbus. otherworldohio.com

Luscious Dogs is just getting started in what is probably the toughest time to "make it" as a rock band in the history of rock bands. if you dig it, please like and subscribe, and add us on Facebook.
