*Allan’s Resolve - this song winds up the album, and is all instrumental. It is dedicated to allan holdsworth. live drum tracks from Brent Dacus.(D/FW area)

*High Time - one of my favorites on the album, the lyric for this one poured out in about a half hour. boom, done. it's meant to be fun and uplifting. reminds me of a roadtrip i once took, i imagine a lot of folk can relate to this one. Taylor 414 and Seagull Mosaic on this one, miced by ADK...

*Headin for the Weeds - my anti war rant. the whole 'war' section in the middle, was a blast to come up with. i just wanted cacaphony, and even tho i tried to impart some angst, it still comes off fairly groovy and proper, exactly opposite of what i was going for! hehe, so i just went with it...

from the new bats brew album

Speak to Me: this is a remake of a demo i did back in 1999 with a buddy of mine, i met on the roland VS Planet website, last seen in florida. i took him my original demo, and said 'do whatever, 'carte blanc', the entire backing track, sans guitars and vocals, he created on top of my demo...

*Twilight Rain - this is purely autobiographical. i did a demo of this several years ago, and it was a full band arrangement. i did this version as part of a 'song-fact finding mission', and ended up liking it better. features real thunder and rain, recorded from the downstairs entrance door...

this is the rocker with the swagger. pretty straightforward, it's a hopeful song about walking close to that edge, and pulling back. hope it can resonate with someone besides myself!

from the new album, this is the title track. it's meant to just introduce the listener to the beginning of the album. it's kind of an instrumental... should effectively get you up out of your chair for a quick boogie, if it's doesn't, contact a neurologist. heheh

sneaking another new one for folks to hear.... this is my 'rock waltz' it's a true story, about a friend traveling abroad

new tune from the new bats brew 'the time is magic' album- "The Strip" it's kind of a laid back shuffle, but with a hint of desperation. written after my 1st trip to the vegas strip. all events actually happened ! LOL

It's called "The Time is Magic" a full length album, old school style, 10 songs are ordered to work as a continuous listen. i thought i'd introduce some of the songs on it, starting with this one: "High Time" it's an acoustic number, has a cool feel to it. hope you dig it!

im' trying to decide which drum kit between two i've built, work best for this song. i posted the 1st version of the song already, but now i want to try at least one different kit that i've been working on. a more rock sounding kit. both are from the toontracks superior drummer 'rooms of hansa'...

https://batsbrew.bandcamp.com/track/running-free would love some feedback on the mix, working this one up right now

https://batsbrew.bandcamp.com/track/jezebel you might have heard the demo of this one, i've been trying to wrap it up, this is real close, i think. i wrote this one, using the drum track from the rolling stones' "tumblin' dice" as a template. if you stripped off all the music and played along...

https://batsbrew.bandcamp.com/track/bullet-train-to-monaco completely new mix. different drum kit and room treatments. i may final tweak the kit a bit more. i like the snare snap, but it may...be too much. and i guess, a different approach to the mix. it's quite a bit more in the face. i think...

i updated this mix especially for Max Verstappen, the Formula One open wheel champion for 2023! it's an anthem, big mix, and i used my new Tele for the first time, to record the guitar parts for this. it's part of a 3-song trilogy, inspired by F1. enjoy...
