Hello I am lyftd one an individual songwriter who likes to experience new avenues of creating vivid and vibrant soundscapes along with unique visual concepts. I have worked with alot of different gifted artists and groups; always experimenting with new individuals and concepts. I enjoy the essence of creating, it is a window into humanity's very being. This is sort of an online portfolio, "if you will", of the work I have done. From songs with guest vocals and instrumentation to songs without any vocals and just me and the music. Currently I m in Balad, Iraq working with other artist while serving in OIF III. You can check out other websites such as: www.myspace.com/lyftdone or www.myspace.com/mpod or www.lyftd.com to see other musical endeavors and the artists that helped to create great music. Thank you for experiencing this and let me know what you think.

production and passion...

While I am currently deployed in Operation Iraqi Freedom and have been since early 2005, resources have been very limiting in ways of production. I was able to transfer my Ibanez RG570 and Digitech GNX3 in the beginning so that I would remain sane in an insane environment. Music is expression of the soul, an audible journey witch has many different paths for many different people. I could not simply go without it for over a year as well as my family. So efforts were made to obtain software and access to a computer with which could I create, if there were any spare moments, and there were. Using Fuity Loops 3 as a base to create original rhythms, synths, fills, and sound fx and using Cakewalk Guitar Tracks (that comes with a GNX3 purchase) to record audio was how these songs were created and recorded as well as hours of experimentaion to find better recording methods and techniques in a limiting environment. It has helped greatly to get a grasp and start laying down those ideas that would paralyse and pollute my thoughts with endless waves of in-audible,
deafening scores..."Not that there's anything wrong with that", every musician, artist, writer, scholer, banker, police officer, pretty much anyone with a passion and internal drive for what they love can relate.
