Rock Oriented Songwriter

XkX on SoundBetter

I write theatrical hooks and arrangements that sound larger-than-life. Whether I'm writing a dirty riff or building a dreamy soundscape, I know how captivate listeners, raise goosebumps, and bring songs to life.

What I provide are topline-ready instrumentals for singers, producers, and music supervisors. I have 24 years of experience writing/playing (guitar) songs in genres like metal, emo, punk, hardcore, post-rock, ambient, and electronic music production. Through that experience, I've toured, had radio play, went viral (48k album downloads on Bandcamp), and along the way, I've helped people around me elevate their song ideas. If you're a singer/musician stuck on a melody/riff, I can help you expand it into a full song that will grab a listener's attention and keep it.

I also write instrumentals for sync licensing and sound design; I can help with everything between a YouTube intro, a scene in a short-film, or a video game menu. Listen to my samples to get an idea of what I can bring to the table.
