Serious Song (Drum ‘n’ Bass)
Wow this song was a long time in the making. 12+ months? Not sure if it’s done yet — this mix feels a little thick and awkward at times — but it’s done enough to let me move on to some other tracks in the near term.
174 BPM d’n'b, growly nasty bassline, occasional explosive speaker-ripping kicks, and an acid synth line that snuck in from my techno personality.
The “This song is a serious song, isn’t it?” sample is from this very silly record.

Does anyone have a Xbox 360 I can borrow?
A while back I was hired to compose two songs for Konami’s DDR UltraMix 4, and they sent me some free copies of the game… but I don’t have a console to play on (or stomp on or whatever it’s called when you do the blinky-light DDR thing.)
They bought all-out rights to the songs I made so I can’t post the DDR editions here. However one of the songs was a remix of an older drum ‘n’ bass tune I wrote called “Indian Summer” which I can reproduce in full here:
Stringy (Drum ‘n’ Bass)
168 bpm, lush strings, jazzy fun drum ‘n’ bass with a couple of deep-beat breakdowns.
