Hello! I’m Robert. I’m a composer, drill designer, software engineer, amateur astrophotographer, and avid video game enthusiast. I like writing music for all mediums and my favorite is concerts band + electronics. My music is inspired by space, technology, and raw human emotion!
In the last 2 months, I’ve written 2 new grade 2 works for concert band. I’ve gained a new respect for the talented composers who can write at this level. It has been a struggle for me! Personally writing a grade 2 was harder for me than writing a grade 4/5!

I have the best writing partner in the world. He always listens and rarely judges. His feedback on midi piccolo sounds are second to none (claws digging into my leg). I thoroughly enjoy our morning composing sessions together!

One musician.
One French horn.
One very cinematic audio track.
A collective need to exhale and release our anxieties for just a few minutes.
Please enjoy Braydon Ross’s recent, beautiful performance of my piece, DEEP.

Feeling moody? Broody? Attitude-y?
Need a personal soundtrack?
Here’s a favorite pensive offering, TRAINS OF THOUGHT, in a DePaul Wind Symphony concert last month conducted by Erica Neidlinger. These wonderful musicians sound great no matter what state of mind you’re in. bit.ly/4ga2fuZ

Hey there fellow indie composers and publishers: I love Bluesky, but I still need to point you over to Facebook whenever I post anything pithy. Which is my euphemism for “loquacious.”
In this case, loquacious, but very helpful with regard to our catalogs. Have a look!

Space is awesome. It’s often times the subject of the music I write. Here’s a shot I took of “The Witch’s Broom” nebula last year in honor of #wicked movie releasing this weekend!
