Birthday Sex 05.03.2017

"Birthday Sex" is a catchy guitar-hook based instrumental that I produced for an indie-film project. This track absolutely ROCKS!! Built on a solid catchy and somewhat intricate guitar hook that slides into a driven bridge hook and a semi-melodic guitar solo that's over a unique rhythm to the song, this one is well worth blowing some speakers over for sure.. CRANK IT UP!! Enjoy,,, and as always,,,...

Your turn to bleed 28.02.2017

"Your turn to bleed" is a guitar hook based 80's Hair-Metal guitar instrumental. This track was produced for an indie-Film project I'm a part of here in Los Angeles, and it's got some serious grooves and head banging moments going on. Built on a solid catchy guitar hook, and a down-beat head bang hair swingin' bridge, this track is well worth blowing some speakers over, so definitely CRANK IT TO 1...

Not for Sunday 20.02.2017

"Not for Sunday" was produced for a TV pilot project I'm a part of. This track is heavily driven by one of my favorites, the MXR Flanger. I've combined it with some wide stereo chorus to give it some boost as well. The song is built on a tricky yet catchy little guitar hook that utilizes a lot of semi-tones to create some serious Van Halen meets Vai meets Jeff Fiorentino vibes. The bridge is a fun...

Stream of Unconsciousness 15.02.2017

"Stream of Unconsciousness" was produced for an Indie-film project I'm a part of here in Los Angeles. This track is a moody head-banger of a track, despite it's laid back openings. The song is built on a Jazzy guitar finger-picked riff, with melodic bass lines, and followed by a head-banging power-chord guitar hook section. The whole thing is cut down the middle with an intricate guitar solo that'...

Get Bent 05.02.2017

"Get Bent" is a semi-head bangin' jumper of a track that I produced for an indi-film project I'm a part of here in Los Angeles. This track has two distinct vibes to it. One guitar hook is very straight forward, and the other is very choppy. The whole track is cut down the middle with a tricky little guitar solo that's done over a unique rhythm with a key/mode change to take the song in a new direc...

First-place Loser 29.01.2017

"First-place Loser" was produced for a film project I'm a part of here in Los Angeles. This track is quite obviously very Van Halen influenced, with its MXR Phase 90 root guitar tone, and VH style riffing. This track however is built on a rather intricate guitar hook with a shuffle groove feel. The song's solo is over a unique rhythm to the song for the most part and changes key in the beginning f...

Smoking on the Hindenburg 03.01.2017

"Smoking on the Hindenburg" is my second release for 2017. This is a moody MXR Flange and Phase filled monster of a Guitar Rocker. This track was produced for a film project I'm a part of here in Los Angeles, and it's actually slotted to be the film opener. I'm sharing this track with the permission of the filmmaker. The track is built on 2 solid guitar hooks with a semi-melodic semi-shred guitar...

Release the Hounds - (2017 year opener) 27.12.2016

"Release the Hounds" - (My 2017 Year Opener Track) "Release the Hounds" is a serious hard rock guitar instrumental that's a bit of a throw-back to my earlier work from 2012'ish era, i.e. the ever popular "Suffer the Bitches" etc. This track has some wicked Phase 90 tones, and a very wide stereo spread. As always it's cut down the middle with a guitar solo, which in this case was a pure improv mix...

Fake Cheese Tuesday 12.11.2016

"Fake Cheese Tuesday", named for this crap I was served in a health food restaurant a friend dragged me to recently, is a serious Hard Rock Guitar instrumental in the style and spirit of Van Halen, Vai, and a pinch of Jeff Beck for fun. The guitar tone on this track comes from an MXR Flanger paired with an MXR Chorus to add some depth. Beyond that it's pretty much just guitar and amp... Enjoy.......

Spank Me 19.10.2016

"Spank Me" was produced for TV licensing as part of a pilot project I'm a big part of. This is a serious rock your world Hard Rock Guitar instrumental, built on some solid Van Halen influenced foundations, right down to the rich warm EVH Brown Sound. Built on 2 catchy guitar grooves, this track is actually a rewrite and re-work of a song I wrong many many years ago as a guitar lesson example on my...

Scary Cherry 11.10.2016

"Scary Cherry" (aka "That's a Scary Cherry") was produced for film and television licensing, and is a slick hard rock guitar instrumental, utilizing a mix of open string off-set pitch riffing, diminished chording, and power chord riffing for the bridge that offers a modal shift to create some drama. Cut down the middle with its hair metal era inspired guitar solo this track will rock your world fo...

Chinese Fist Bump 22.07.2016

This is "Chinese Fist Bump".. It's a guitar hook based hard rock instrumental, with lots of half-step undertones going on in its riffing. This track is a slick you piece I put together for TV pilot project I'm a part of. Definitely worth blowing some speakers over, put your volumes on full tilt for this one for sure.. Enjoy... and as always CRANK IT UP!!! "Chinese Fist Bump" Written and Arranged b...

Witch Hazel 14.03.2016

"Witch Hazel" ROCKS!!! This is a guitar hook based hard rock instrumental that I produced for film and television licensing. It's built on a solid groove guitar hook, where the guitar is doing a sideways groove, but the drums are keeping a down-beat. The song's bridge transitions into an almost Vai'esque section that incorporates some diminished intervals for added melody. The song is cut down the...

Cream Hog 11.02.2016

"Cream Hog", is a slick hard rock guitar instrumental groove, with some Van Halen meets Led Zeppelin meets Jeff Fiorentino vibe to it. The song's title is taken from a nickname given to one of the title characters on one of my favorite #BBC TV shows called #Siblings. There's a nice sociopathic groove to the show, and this song has a bit of that kind of theme and feel going on with it as well. "Cre...

HeadPhony 01.02.2016

"HeadPhony" was written and produced for a film project I'm a part of. This track utilizes some of my favorite types of guitar riffing, which is the use of semi-tones to create what I call off-set notes. Players like Van Halen, Vai, and Satriani use these all the time, but I like to go deep with them and create moving main theme guitar hooks. What I mean by moving, is this song's main guitar riff...

Cold Beaver 25.01.2016

"Cold Beaver", is a swing shuffle groove, fast tempoed hard rock guitar instrumenal that I produced for a TV Pilot project I'm a part of here in Los Angeles. This track grooves right along at 174 b.p.m. and incorporates two separate feels. The song's main theme guitar hook is built on a solid shuffle groove, while the song's bridge and middle guitar solo portions are a Jazzier off-beat groove that...

I Like Like You 04.01.2016

"I like like you", is my first official release of 2016. This is a Hard Rockin' monster of a track built on a solid really catchy guitar hook, with a wide stereo Flanger and Chorus applied. Cut down the middle with a semi-melodic, slick Rick guitar solo, this one is worth blowing those speakers you got for Christmas on for sure.. The song's title FYI comes from a song done on an episode of the #BB...

Fat Alice 30.12.2015

"Fat Alice" is my and JFRocks.com's kick-off track for 2016. Each year the song title we kick-off with is basically our pet-name for the year. Last year in 2015 the kick-off track was called "SoundClowned". And it indeed marked a year of a lot of music written and released. I personally produced over 110 songs in 2015, most of which made it here to SoundCloud for you all to enjoy, and all of them...

Chubby 16.12.2015

"Chubby" is a hard rock guitar instrumental made up of a couple hook riffs I had laying around from earlier in the year that never got used. Sometimes I review old demos and find stuff that I glazed over that sounds really cool, or has potential. That said, this song's main guitar hook was one of those riffs. "Chubby", named for its FAT guitar tone and warm guitar solo changes modes a couple times...
