This song was inspired by my many visits to Berlin, Germany over the years. This city has so much history, and stories to tell, many of them sad in nature.  My time there left an impression on me and I’ve always felt the need to write a piece of music to capture the way this city made me feel.

I wrote this guitar instrumental after being inspired by the music of Harry Nilsson. I used my French-made Duponte Selmer-style guitar for the melody on this track to provide a more melancholy sound.

I wrote this piece as par of a score for a short film (Invisible Me) about the neglect and isolation that children of drug addicts experience.  This theme was meant to convey the feeling of loneliness and longing for the love of an absent parent consumed with drug addiction.  The film was pitched for several film festivals but never released.

I wrote this song to capture the happy, energetic feeling of being outside under the sun.  Several publishers were looking for happy music that would be suitable for use in TV shows and advertisements for children.  I wanted to come up with something happy, and energetic.  I used Guitar, Ukulele, an upright bass along with a more modern groove and synth parts to add more energy.
