The Thing With The Stuff

During DigiPen I worked with Joshua Billeaudeau on a lot of music. Some took a long time to produce and other were improvised jam sessions. Many of them are performed by Josh and I only did production work. Josh has several other tracks he did at DigiPen but I wasn't really involved. There's also quite a few song we wrote together that have yet to be recorded.

"Hip-Hop Lords of Arabia," is a name we considered for our band. Unfortunately we were always to busy with school to work on any professional music. I'm not quite sure how to label these songs, but they don't feel like HHLOA. So for now I'm putting it under the name, "The Thing With The Stuff: Of Power," which is a band/album name we had also considered.

The Thing With The Stuff: Of Power (45MB)

Blobby The Blob - Cosmic Credits - Josh's first semester game, Blobby The Blob, used this as a credits song. The game also had an in-game banjo soundtrack, but those songs have been lost.
