Electronic Music Producer

I started this one over a year ago in January back when many New Year’s resolutions were still alive and well. In the song “ex” was my fun play on words to refer to the character’s past self before their resolutions, with the video showing their desperate attempt to murder that version of themselves. Aaand I figured it was time to bring back a bit of that dark dance vibe I love so much with some great familiar vocalists.

This was one of the most technically challenging songs I’ve made with a ton of wild effects, styles, and tempo changes. When I eventually got around to writing the vocal the song ultimately turned into me trying to find a creative way to represent some of the darker inner dialog that can happen at times, which is why I love 0:44 in particular. I also used a lot of my vocal effects experimentation from Playhouse and had the pleasure of working with a real 12-person choir and two great vocalists to bring out the different characters and level of epicness the song needed.

I based the story of this song on a particular Dungeons & Dragons session I played a few years ago with some friends, and tried to condense many of the twists and turns from that adventure into 3 minutes. Many of you will probably also be able to tell I used the instrumental from “Maestro” as the basis for this one, and so I hope this different story still does it justice.

Every once in a while on our journey through this book I’m going to release what I’ll call “interludes”, which will be my way of incorporating cover songs and different versions of some of my favorite chapters. For this interlude, after having watched the show “Agatha All Along” a while back, I formed my own coven of 4 witches led by Scarlett to sing a cover of the main song from the show “The Ballad of the Witches’ Road”. I really loved the unique ending of that song and knew I could do something interesting with it, and I hope you like how it turned out!

Around when the second season of “Arcane” was coming out I was really feeling the emotional dynamics between Jinx and Vi again. My past song “Cast a Villain” I actually thought fit a lot of Jinx’s experience and saw a unique opportunity to make an uplifting part 2 to the character in that darker song with inspiration from that dynamic. To do that I wrote the story as a duet and brought back some of my favorite vocalists. Quite different from a lot of what I’ve made but I love how it turned out and I hope you do too!

A new journey starts today, and I think you’re going to be hearing some of the most creative and highest effort things I’ve made. I have many stories I want to tell so I hope you’ll follow along with me as we read through this book!

I bring you my most ambitious project yet! This song took me over 100 hours to make and combines elements from every song on the album into one big album finale. I will be back, soon-ish! In the meantime, I hope you all like this one like I do!

In my “Twisted Expression” era a few years ago I was really into taking common expressions and twisting them in new and often darker ways. I wanted to give that another go but this time re-working my “Maestro” song with the same singer and writing a darker take on the classic rock-a-bye baby lullaby. Sit tight, cause the album finale is coming up next and it’s going to be pretty special for all those who have been following along

The Barbie hype train may be gone but who cares, here’s a Barbie and Ken themed song!

Some of you may know I’ve been a big fan of League of Legends music and around a year ago I got pretty excited hearing the vocals from their 2023 Worlds song “GODS”. However I thought the instrumental could have gone in a different direction for my tastes and decided to give it the Cjbeards cinematic treatment. Hope you all like the idea!

I wanted this one to feel mildly annoying but at the same time working its way into your head to the point where you can’t stop listening to it despite the irritation. That was a fine line to walk, but if it ends up stuck in your head then my work here is done :). My favorite part is also the chaotic middle section where I had a blast experimenting with different vocal effects and look forward to playing around with them more in the future. So like it or hate it I hope it creeps through your minds’ divider!

Big brass, bigger bass, and a throwback to my song “Killed The Cat”. Hopefully this song may just be catchy enough to have you wishing the devil well :). 

April Fooools! Apologies in advance to those that listen until the end of the full song and know the meme <3

Ever wonder what it might be like to be hunted by a vampire? Well hopefully this song and the wonderful Scarlett can show you! If you listen closely you might also be able to hear similar sounds to a different song of mine that I used as a starting point when working on this one, hope you all like it!

After creating the song “Boo Hoo” a little while back I knew I wanted to reuse elements of that project and style in a new song, and that new song is here with “Maestro”! It was exciting to add some new twists to this one and have another amazing vocalist sing it, and I hope you all like it!

A while back the song “Look What You Made Me Do” by Taylor Swift was playing on the radio and someone mentioned it sounded a bit like a Cjbeards song. I had heard the song in the past but after that mention I realized I loved the vocal and was inspired to put my own unique take on it, adding all the darkness and power you might expect from a Cjbeards song and a great new vocal to the original. I hope you all like this cover!

Ho ho ho it’s time for an original Christmas song with Santa making his list and checking who’s Not So Nice! This is the first song I have ever made with two vocalists and was a blast to have them portray different characters (children eager for gifts and Santa Clause). I hope this one makes for a fun listening experience going into the holidays!
