If you’ve used FL Studio 9, you probably already know about Just Hold On, the progressive trance song I wrote to demo the program (with additional writing + performance by my wife, Jill!)

What you probably don’t know, however, is that “Just Hold On” was based on an instrumental called “Dreamer” I wrote over a year and a half ago. As part of my upcoming album, I’ve decided to go back to this song, now called “Just Hold On Eternal” and finish it, integrating the vocals from the FL version of the song.

There will also be new vocal parts and the whole thing will clock in at an epic 5+ minutes. This is almost like a successor to Antigravity and I’m really excited about it! Check out the MP3 below for a preview –

Are you a composer, songwriter, producer or any other kind of DIY musician, hobbyist or professional? If so, you’ll be pleased to learn about my revamped Guides page! All video tutorials can now be found in the Videos subsection. The new written content thus far is being ported from SoundTempest, but I’m planning on writing and releasing tons of new stuff too.

Got a request for a new guide, tutorial or video? Let me know and post here!

I’m pleased to announce that over 50 original tracks (many of which have never been released) are now available for licensing at my Licensing Store! This collection includes tracks from Antigravity and Fittest, plus original instrumental hip-hop, dramatic orchestral pieces, subtle underscore, New Age/world and more.

The new licensing store, provided by LicenseQuote, allows anybody to easily browse my collection of available music by genre, tag and description. Upon finding the right track, a quote can be generated by using the intuitive licensing calculator, which determines an approximate fee based on the type of usage and a number of other factors.

So, if you have a film, video game, advertising, TV, DVD or any other kind of media project, no matter how big or small, check out the new store! I’ll be updating it regularly with new music from now on, so if you have a consistent need for music, keep checking back (or shoot me an email to talk about custom/exclusive compositions.)
