Here are MIDIs of some of my compositions. Most are partial and some do not have a vocal line throughout (or at all). The fidelity will depend on your MIDI setup and, in particular, some songs make use of GS instruments.

Most of the following songs are now being produced and recorded by pop duo Nelson James.

SONG 10 [complete]

up-beat song featuring synth and a catchy electric guitar (with echo) riff. Some people say this is their favourite piece of mine.

SONG 12 [complete]

up-beat piano piece with great bass. Another favourite.

SONG 13 [partial]

bass-driven song with synth riff.

SONG 01 [complete]

light piece for piano with bass and drums. Up-tempo easy-listening.

SONG 07 [partial]

chorus for an uplifting piano-based love song.

SONG 02 [partial]

reggae feel in parts with a melodic bass.

SONG 03 [partial]

sweet piece with acoustic guitar.

SONG 04 [partial]

Moroder-style synth piece inspired by reading Herge's Adventures of Tintin (I'd love it to have lyrics about Tintin and friends).

SONG 08 [partial]

earliest of songs here. Fairly simple song I wrote in 1987.

SONG 09 [partial]

some funky bass and muted guitar.

SONG 11 [partial]

short fragment of driving piano and bass.

SONG 06 [partial] [GS MIDI Recommended]

Blink-182-inspired punk pop. Really needs a good GS synth to work.

SONG 05 [partial]

originally intended as a theme for a kids' TV show, people have suggested it need not be :-)
