Released 2013.12.11. Little did I know that it would take over 20 years for that to happen! Yet, it did indeed happen and this song is the result. The lyrics, which I wrote at the age of 18, speak to my unsteady transition into adulthood. Your Game to Win. Released 2014.05.30. Recorded on 2014.5.30. Created to submit to a contest.

Jyazz : ÆREZ
http://www.aerez.us/song/details/jyazz
Released 2013.12.13. I've always been fond of jazz and, though this song isn't an example of the genre, I did incorporate some jazz-like elements into it. So, by combining the words "Jazz" and "Yeah." I came up with Jyazz. This song is one of the first that I composed with the aid of a drum machine, an Alesis SR-16. Amazingly, over 20 years later, you can still purchase one new! Your Game to Win. Released 2014.05.30. Recorded on 2014.5.30. Created to submit to a contest. Get Out of the Way. Released 2013...

Get Out of the Way : ÆREZ
http://www.aerez.us/song/details/get-out-of-the-way
Get Out of the Way. Released 2014.03.01. After spending 3 weeks learning how to use Propellerhead's Reason digital audio workstation software, I took advantage of a contest sponsored by Novation to practice using what I'd learned. Because of the types of sounds available, I wound up being steered towards creating a different type of music than what I've recorded in the past but I like how it all turned out! Your Game to Win.

Yesterday : ÆREZ
http://www.aerez.us/song/details/yesterday
Released 2013.12.17. My purchases of new music-making tools in 1993 had drastically changed the sound of the songs I recorded afterwards to the point that I wondered whether I could even make the same type of music I once had. So, in part to prove to myself that I was still able, I composed this song using the same style, same techniques and the same primary synthesizer module I had used in my earlier recordings.

Brief Respite : ÆREZ
http://www.aerez.us/song/details/respite
Released 2013.12.08. I initially recorded this song at a rather hectic time during my last semester of high school, when I was seeking a brief respite from the pressures associated with my ensuing adulthood. The quick pace in 3/4 time felt to me like a reflection of the moment. Your Game to Win. Released 2014.05.30. Recorded on 2014.5.30. Created to submit to a contest. Get Out of the Way.

Evil : ÆREZ
http://www.aerez.us/song/details/evil
Released 2013.12.16. The name of the song actually comes from my initial impression of the opening growling sound, rather than the song in its entirety. As I thought it would be interesting to create a song that centered on the sound, this is what came forth from my experiment. Your Game to Win. Released 2014.05.30. Recorded on 2014.5.30. Created to submit to a contest. Get Out of the Way. Released 2014.03.01. Recorded on 2014.3.1. Created to submit to a contest. Released 2013.12.30. You Make Me Smile.

Never Compare : ÆREZ
http://www.aerez.us/song/details/never
Released 2013.12.18. In late 1996 I traded in all of my old music gear for a top-of-the-line synthesizer workstation (a Kurzweil K2500) with the intention of being more mobile. The end result, however, was that I had an excellent instrument to perform with while lacking the variety of sound sources I needed to do the kind of recording I wanted. Your Game to Win.

Released 2013.12.10. I created this song with the intention of entering into a different state of awareness, a world of imagination to linger in while bearing with a dull summer job at a factory.

Guitar Breeze : ÆREZ
http://www.aerez.us/song/details/breeze
Released 2013.12.12. This experimental song was the first thing I recorded after purchasing a new external synthesizer module and sequencing software for my Macintosh PowerBook 160 (with 16 shades of gray! In testing out the equipment, I kept adding spontaneous phrases to the recording without forethought and the result somehow managed to stand on its own surprisingly well. Your Game to Win.
