Instant

I was having some doubts about whether I could play drums fast enough to do this song without resorting to programming. But I kept it short and simple, and managed to pull it off.

Insane

I wrote this at the back end of the punk revival at the end of the 1980s. At the time, I made the decision to just loosen up and play. It didn't need to be complicated. It didn't need to be perfect. It needed to be spontaneous.

The Mortal Taint - Get Lost

One of my old punk songs. The original was faster, but back then, I didn’t have to play it on real drums.

The Mortal Taint - Reigning Chaos

An original song and performance, where I am playing all the instruments in single takes, without editing, autotune, or AI. What you see is what you get. None of the mistakes are edited out. I’m not goofing around in the video, because what you see is my actual performance of what you’re hearing. And if I pull a funny face, it’s because I’m concentrating.

The Mortal Taint - Alien Being

An instrumental -- one of the first I ever wrote. And I wrote it because I’d just bought a drum machine and was testing it out. This version has real drums on it.
