All songs Copyright 2007, SR McMahan.

Odd Mix - A short trio with double bass, oboe and French  horn.

Majestiq  - The scene is a mountain meadow next to a  pond with  elk and other wildlife. Uses self recorded ambient  sounds and stock SFX and   12 string guitar.

Intelligent Life?  - A collage of SFX intended to question the assumption   of intelligent life on Mother Earth.

Forest Song - Originally from my 2nd CD   -   this one is an  ethereal choral work that has been redone.

Raven's Land - An electronic ambient piece done entirely  in  Atmosphere.

End of Day - A choral piece. Choir and soprano.

Destiny - A NA Flute piece.

C Hop Pop - A little electronic/Celtic ambient thing -   mostly   done with Atmosphere.

Time's Up - A short somber cue using Sapphire.

Ascension - An e-e-erry electronic ambient piece with multilayered morphed and treated instruments.

Kutwi - An abstract piece using the instruments from Kong Audio.

The Reaping - A darker electronic ambient - Atmosphere, Outer Limits, Cygnus and some home grown granulation.

OTW 1 - Off -the-wall - Absynth, Cube, Tera, Atmosphere,  Gold XP, Ebow, Pandemonium and a nice B4.

Exern 1 - Mellow dissonance and lag timing - Sapphire strings, Tera and Spectron.

Lynxess - A choral/ethereal piece - all sounds were created using the AVP III Kontakt sampleset - I wanted to see what types of unusual sounds could be coaxed from the samples.

 

Soft Soar  - A slower dreamy piece with Atmosphere and choir.

Ancient Giants - A texture piece done with Atmosphere and a solo vocalist (humpback whale.)

Fanfare for 2012 - A simple short orchestral paying ominous homage to the Mayan prophecy. All done in GoldXP.

Thunders - A NA Flute piece.

Angeliq - Four French horns, an oboe, a choir, a soprano and strings backing the choir.

An Eagle Spoke - A Native American style vocal collage piece.

7 Fore & 7 Aft - A Native American style vocal collage piece.

Murphy's Dues - An odd but somewhat comical quartet - one cello and three violas. I left the mistakes in as befitting the title.

Soft Seas - A lighter piece with layered instruments and pop-like choir.

Eka - A twisted electronic piece with shades of Tangerine Dream - mostly done with Absynth.

Miragen 1 -    An electronic ambient/textural piece.

Scuen 1 - A suspense/sci-fi ambient mostly made of clicks and ticks.

Igmu Watogla Nagi - In Lakota this translates to "Spirit of the Cougar".  A dark ambient inspired by the opening Atmosphere patch along with SFX and self recorded wind in tall grass.

Von 1 - An ethereal vocal work, AVP, EWQLSC and Atmosphere 

Aridity - Another choral piece with unusual chord structures and dissonances - the choras and bass parts are AVP III and the ambient behind them is Atmosphere.
