Dreamscape Theme

By Jeremiah Pena | Published November 29th, 2009

Electronic instruments and acoustic instruments are often the perfect match for each other. I love combining the two, and creating music that can become unlike anything heard before. Otherworldly effects, stabbing synth and brass hits, droning pads and strings, all working together for the greater good of the song.

This song is probably my best combination of the two,  created for a project known only as “Dreamscape.” Have a listen:

Defeat

By Jeremiah Pena | Published November 26th, 2009

Action music is one of my favorite types of music to write, whether it’s composed specifically for an action scene, or if it’s just some idea in the back of my head. It’s surprisingly difficult to write, but I think I’ve now succeeded at creating my best action music. It’s called Defeat. The battle has been won, but there’s always the defeated side. Take a listen:
