So, it's been a while since I have done any blogging, or online posting of any sort, except for sheet music and because of a conversation with a good friend, I decided it's time i start my own. To all those curious minds out there, this conversation involved writing music, being famous and doing what you like for a living. Considering I LOVE music, and couldn't live without it, I'm keeping this place as a music diary. so, to start right, here is a link to my latest sheet music. (little orange and black play button on bottom left.)

I have been going at it for the past week or so, and I think it's pretty accurate. I mean, not like the one from 'How to Train Your Dragon', which I spent over two months writing. (speaking of which, I gotta finish writing the music down, it's still only in  my head) But alas, all great things come to an end, and my time with transformers is done. The soundtrack is plenty repetitive, and from what i can her, there are only three themes in there, either major or minor keys, making six themes all together. Definitely not enough for a medley. So, now I'm stuck as where to turn. Mad World acapella (the one by Gary Jules, thank you Ben for showing it to me :D ) is almost done, and the Harry Potter/Super Mario medley for a marimba is well on its way to being completed. So close, in fact, that The Marimba Girls (Joe and Melissa) asked me yesterday for the harry potter part. It took forever to write, (thank you, great ears!) but i have most notes in there.

There you go. That's just the Hedwig's theme, no Super Mario in there. Yet. For a first post, I think this will suffice. But do not fear, my readers, because more is to come. Especially if that 'more to come' is a request from you. i do arrange for most instruments, and anything from techno,  done skrillex and tron soundtrack before, to original works, did my own version of waterfall by John Schmidt once pon a time. So, any requests, comment down at the bottom, and I'll do my best.
