Antechamber is the culmination of a half-year's work ranging from late 2006 to mid-2007. In this album, you'll find tracks which feature ambient, techno, drum and bass, rock, orchestral and chillout styles. Some feature more than one, and those tend to be the ones I've been most satisfied with.
Anyway - the important stuff! See below for details and tracklisting and download the entire pack from a link below. In that pack I've got the entire album (available as high-quality MP3s), album art, a playlist, and a readme, which I recommend you actually read. That aside, here's what you came here for:

TRACK INFORMATION
- Antechamber (1:20) - Antechamber serves as an intro track to the album. It features a low bass and an airy synth to give it an ambient and smooth feel.
- Megalith (4:03) - Megalith roughs things up a bit. It's loud, synthy, and quick. It gets to be a lot of fun near the end when everything is going at once. I actually got the main melody for this from two "calls" made by a walkie talkie.
- Spirit Walk (5:27) - Spirit Walk is a soft, relaxing piece to follow Megalith. It features quiet, echoing piano and flutes. This was an experiment to use "real" and synth instruments together in one song.
- Superbox 3000 (3:23) - This is a funky song with lots of "old" or "simple" sounding instruments to give it a retro groove. It sounds a bit like a song from a game, and is intended to be a jarring difference from Spirit Walk.
- Aurora (3:38) - Aurora is a song where I wanted to apply smooth instruments with sharp drums. A funky section in the middle switches things up a bit.
- Fulcrum (4:58) - Fulcrum was a song I'd made just before Megalith and decided to include in the album. It features echoing piano and electric piano with quick, synthy drums.
- Circuit Breaker (6:29) - This is my most complex and likely best song to date. Circuit Breaker was a song I restarted many times with new directions and wound up with, simply, a song that takes off in many directions. This is a fast and harsh drum and bass song, featuring distorted and overdriven drums and rhythm guitar. A rock section in the middle keeps it fresh.
- Interstice (1:07) - Interstice is a short ambient piece and serves as kind of a conclusion to the energy and loudness of Circuit Breaker. It uses lots of seventh chords and features soft waving sounds similar to breathing.
- Lucid (4:28) - This is a track that starts out small and gets big. More synths and instruments build onto each other as it goes, reaching a big conclusion at the end. Lots of panning and filters keep things interesting.
- Atlantis Groove (5:18) - This track features an "underwater" motif and uses soft xylophones and funky drums. Heavy bass and interesting distortions move this one along.
- Stratosphere (5:34) - Stratosphere is the real end to the album, as Exeunt is just a closer. This track is representative of the kind of music I like to make - not really classifiable by any style, fast, rich, and hopefully enjoyable.
- Exeunt (2:21) - A short closer track and an ambient piece similar in some ways to Antechamber and Interstice. Exeunt has two main sections - the first is somewhat similar to Antechamber while the second half is quiet, featuring deep bass and soft piano drifting around.
If you'd like the full album pack of Antechamber (including a deluxe shiny silver/black disc) an email and a few dollars for shipping is all it takes to get it to you.
