The Elephant Adventure

This music was used in a recent Disney production I worked on. I can’t say much about it yet, but there were elephants involved. So I asked myself. If I were an elephant, what would I want my theme music to be when I came out of my Disney dressing room and sauntered onto the Savanah.

This is a track I wrote for a spot to promote Disney’s Lights, Motors, Action! Extreme Stunt Show. It’s a frantic car stunt show with extreme effects and fast action. The music needed to be just as frenetic.

Intersectional Grind

This is a theme song I wrote for a documentary about New York City traffic that I can’t seem to get a copy of. It may still be in production. I’ve lost contact with the dudes I was working on it with. So dudes, if you see this, what ever happened to that?

Chutes & Tubes

This is a song I recorded to promote Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon. My friend and former co-worker wrote this spot, cleverly positioning Typhoon Lagoon above the rest of the many water park contenders here in Orlando. Sadly, the approvers felt that it was off brand for Disney to do this sort of comparison advertising so it never ran. But still, one of my favorites.
